"Good afternoon, welcome in the The Grafton Hotel how may I help you?" A beautiful young lady sat at the reception, looking up to you and kyle. "Good afternoon miss, My fiancé and I booked a room here. Name is Garrick". Kyle spoke grabbing your hand to make the lie more believe able. "Ah yes correct" She handed you the Key as Kyles hands were occupied. "Room number 632. I hope you enjoy your stay" 

"Thank you" You nodded at her and made your way up to the room still holding Kyles hand in yours.  The warmth of his hand send shivers through your body. It felt strangely comfortable to hold his hand. It was rough probably from the years of work but still had a soft touch to it. The sound of the elevator opening bought you back to the current situation. Walking up to the room with Kyle close by holding the luggage. The hotel was very luxuries, A black carpet spread over the floor and pictures signing  the walls giving it a sweat touch. 

"628...629...630...631... ahh 632 there we go" after opening the door your jaw almost dropped to the floor. The room had one bed large enough for three people to sleep in it. Big windows in front of the bed showing off a gorgeous view on the city. The rest was pretty simple like a normal Hotel room. "Guess we are going to share a bed". A nervous laugh escaping you before turning back to meet Kyles gaze. The room fell silent for a second only the noise of the bags falling out of his hands hearable. "I guess so". 

The rest next few hours went by unpleasantly slow. Unpacking the things and going over the intel was the only thing you could do right now. Repeating the same process over and over again. Checking if your clothes are packed away and then reading over the files. The more time went by the more just started to walk around the room. Kyle was laying on the bed already claiming the side by the window for himself. His shoes tucked under the bed and eyes closed enjoying the peace. 

"y/n god dammit relax for a second, you're going to freak me out if you continue to run around like that". Finally opening his eyes he leaned back on his elbows watching your every step. "you checked the wardrobe for the 50th time now, leave it". Stopping in your tracks you looked over to him. "I can't just lay somewhere and let the time pass Gaz, I need to do something." 

"Call me Kyle, gaz is to obvious. We have time until tomorrow do you want to go out? we can get some drinks. I saw a pub not far from here" The idea didn't sound too bad it would relax your nerves at least a little bit. 

"okay sounds good" Taking a deep breath in you looked over to him a smile on his lips. "c'mon i'll pay tonight" 

Taking the same way out you came in through he placed an arm around your shoulder while his other hand was firmly placed in his pocket. "Now tell me more about you y/n". His eyes met your momentarily before scanning the road again. "Well what do you want to know? I told you everything exciting already" 

"mh do you have pets?". Kyle opened the pub door for you, the warm air surrounding you in seconds. "used to have a hamster, his name was slim" 

"Slim?" A cute chuckle left Gaz's lips letting you sit down on the bench by a table before sitting down himself. "I was like 13 when I had him, I thought it was the cutest name for an overweight hamster" 

More laughter was shared over the time while a few beers were shared. Gaz was a cool person to be around seemingly always knowing what to say to tickle a laugh out of you. His eyes lid up hearing you speak about the little thing that formed you as a person, sucking the information in like it was going to be the thing keeping the flame inside of him alive. 

As much as he loved learning more about you, you loved hearing about his interest. What person he his outside the Military. "You know Kyle you are a fascinating individual", a smile followed from him in return. "I can only give that back y/n , glad I am stuck with you here and not the old man". Gaz always worked close to Price he had since he joined the 1-4-1. Somewhat Price functioned like a father to him, especially since he had lost contact to his biological one. It wasn't easy for him to take at that time, the normally close bond to the father he had always loved and looked up to growing up, snapping like someone had cut it with scissors. 

But it was okay, he was long over it. 

The rest of the evening went over faster than you had hoped. A slight blush on your cheeks from the alcohol yet not feeling more than tipsy. "Lets get you back to the hotel love" Gaz also feeling the alcohol in his blood, grabbing your hand and pulling you up in a swift motion. Felling more clumsy then usual you tripped slightly leaning against his chest as he got you in his arm. "watch out, don't want you to hurt yourself" That smile again on his lips, it warmed the blood in your cheeks even more. After both of you paid he grabbed your hand again holding it in his. It was to keep the cover right? To not let the mission blow on the first evening. 

The sun was long gone leaving the cold night air to surround the two of you. It was a comfortable warmth cooling the heat of your skin that had grown from the long hours in the pub. "are you nervous about tomorrow?" he suddenly bought up, gathering your thought for an answer your head leaning against his shoulder. "a little, are you?" Your eyes meeting his. "can't be with you on my side". His words smooth like silk as his free hand met your cheek. His body suddenly closer to yours than you remembered, as if you had lost control over your body your eyes fell to his lips earning a smirk in return. Just before you could meet his lips he moved his head to whisper in your ear. "not that fast love" Voice low and raspy against your skin. "the way I would love to kiss that sweet smile off your lips but i'll safe it for a better moment" His thump moving over your cheek. "You barely know me, don't want to hurt you" 

"Kyle..." The alcohol starting to work its magic making your brain fog up slightly. "You're drunk honey, lets get you to bed". He moved back again showing you a toothy grin before heading back to the hotel. 

Quickly getting rid of your clothes in the bathroom to put on something more comfortable before brushing your teeth looking in the mirror during the process. Kyle was already in bed reading something, sure to leave enough space to not violate your personal space tonight.
