A month has passed, and they have made themselves comfortable with the city of Rio de Janerio. They were waiting for the Coopers to make the first move, they were getting more used to the Wife and Husband things. Then they received mail.
*Y/Ns POV*
"Honey! mail is here!" He says throwing the mail on the counter. "Ah what is this?" I say picking up a nice, slick, black envelope. "Come here honey, let's open it," he says patting the seat next to him. We open it,
"Starks, You are invited to a Ball this night, around 7:00, just bring yourselves and expect a nice time."
I turn to him and do a quiet celebration dance, he follows suit, "Ah this is great! We can finally meet our neighbors!" He says winking at me, I fake gag. "Well we need to go shopping for groceries and I need a nice dress! So let's go!" I say dragging him by the hand and letting him drive. "You know it's not so bad working with you everyday," he says breaking the silence. "It's not, I thought it would be hell, but it's nice." I reply back.
We arrive to the store and walk in the back, we nod to the agent who let us in. We sit down, but this time close together. Our bosses join us, we shake their hands and give them the good news. "That's great you two, but we know of the camera in the bedroom, we need you guys to get more comfortable with each other and have sex. Yes sex. So it makes it more believable, no married couple goes that long without sex, especially newlyweds." We both groan, but I begin to feel my face heat up. I turn my attention to the file, and he does too, while adjusting himself.
We leave the back room and go and shop for groceries, we then arrive at a dress shop. I pick out a slick, backless, dark blue dress. To go with his suit, I stepped out of the dressing room, snapped for his attention, "well what do you think?" I ask softly. He comes up to me, mouth agape, "I think you look absolutely breathtaking Young." He whispers in my ear, I shiver as I feel his hands guide down my sides.
I pull him into the dressing room, "I don't know what you are doing, but I can't feel myself wanting to stop you." I say to him as his stands over me, he smirks and crashes his lips onto mine. I bite my lower lip, convincing myself that I couldn't do this, I was about to push him off until he hit my sweet spot. I slap my hand over my mouth and then flip him on bottom. I smirk as I trail kisses down his face, and his exposed chest. "I've wanted you for so long, but you just got on my damn nerves." He says into the quiet, "it was one case let it go." I say through gritted teeth, I pull myself up. I let the dress fall to the ground as I get dressed, "You will definitely regret that." He says buttoning himself up and adjusting himself, I giggle and grab the dress and walk out of the dressing room.
I approach the counter, he comes up behind me, wrapping a hand around my waist. Showing his ring to the girl gawking at him, she turns red and runs off. We take each other hand and hand, and walk off to the car. "Even though our past was rough, im getting used to this." I say leaning my head on his shoulder, I feel him smile. "I could say the same Young," We arrive home at 5, he carries them in, we start to put them away.

"Alright let's get ready for this party!" I say after putting the last bag over in the bin. He rolls his eyes, and brings me upstairs, he pulls me into the bathroom. "Can we stop this? All the pretending like you have feelings for me? Because it's not what our job is, we pretend to be husband and wife to get close to his family, That's it." He says in a huff, I cross my arms, "Oh I'm sorry, I am trying to make my job more believable! You barely speak to me, unless I do to you! AND oh don't act like the thing at the store was fake." I say in harsh whisper, I cross my arms and face away from him.
That's right. You guys still despised each other but were warming up to each other very slowly. Boy this was going to be long 5 months.

"Whatever, just tone it down," he says opening the door and slamming it, I change out of my clothes into my under garments. I let out a huff and go out to grab my dress, I slide into it. I do light makeup and slick my hair back, with that. I place my jewelry on and grab my bag, I grab my heels.

I descend the stairs and grab his arm, lead him to the door. I take a deep breath, "You look great honey, blue is definitely your color." I say flipping him off and grabbing the keys, "and I can't wait to get you out of that dress..." He says under his breath.

There was no denying the sexual, frustrating tension between you too. But you two kept that under wraps, you wouldn't let the feelings you've been developing for each other get in the way of finishing the job. But it would make it better right?
Right?
