The Agent and Consultant

I'm Here Because Of A Case

You place a gentle knock and the door immediately opens exposing a little boy. He lets you in and look around to see if Neal or the boy's mom is home. "Are you here by yourself?,". "No. My dads in the shower." He replies while compiling his belongings by the door. "Are you my dads girlfriend?" "I work with him," you respond making it sound professional. "Well, he talks about you. You make him happy. Please take care of him," and with that, the boy wraps his hands around your waist. You freeze in place and after a couple minutes, put your hands around him. You hear the shower stop and foot steps but the boy was still in your grasp. "Mm", you hear Neal's voice. You drop to your knees to be in level with David. "I promise," and you place a kiss on his cheek. "Bye dad," David says and leaves the apartment. "Hi," you say quietly turning around to face Neal. He comes up to you and pulls you in for a hug. His hands felt safe around your body. This feeling that you had been craving for so long felt good. "I'm here because of a case," your voice cold all of a sudden.

"So once again. The van will be a couple blocks away and you'll be all wired. After the robbery, you walk around the park and wait to be contacted by them," you say for the third time. He pours other glass of wine and looking at it made you dizzy. The clock read 1:34 but you weren't tired just a bit tipsy. He gets up from his seat and sits on the table, close to you. He put his hand on your cheek and his cold hands tingled against your cheek. He looked in your eyes before lowering his head to connect his lips to yours. You get up from your seat to be at his height and continue to kiss him. His hands snake around your waist so your bodies press together. "Ow," he said. "Oh my god I'm so sorry," you say put your hands on his arms. "I'm kidding," he says smiling and kissing you again. You lay your head on his chest and listen to his heart beat. "Neal, I don't want to ruin this....us. But what are we? I'm afraid that one day your going to walk out and I'm never going to see you. Or you're gonna do something stupid... And god knows what will happen. And if you can't tell me the truth....then.... It's just not fair to me,". And by the time you finish, your eyes feel heavy. "And trust me when I say that I want to remember you as the person I loved and enjoyed not the person who broke my heart by leaving. I know you can't say that you love me because I would be a 'loose end' but I already am,". Neal had been silent but you had to get that off your chest. The weight you had been carrying around for some time had finally been released. "I-," Neal started to say but got cutoff by your phone which was getting a call from Diana. "Is everything okay?," you ask in worry considering the time. "Yea I just needed to get a lot of work done. Theo has been sick and when babies are sick, it's a messy job. Anyway, I got the DNA results back,". You look at Neal and decided weather you wanted to know who those men were. "Yea okay," you respond. "'Kay well the first guy is
Bower Nolan. He has a couple restraining order on his record but that's mainly it. Next fellow is Marcus Dopey and he actually served 5 years in prison for violating parole. Next is Pablo Tobey and he's the youngest out of the gang. He's 34 and has a clean record in fact he seems so out of profile. Anyways, next is Brydon Smith and he is charged for couple of stolen art but strangely never been sentenced for it. And this is strange because he makes monthly trips out to Egypt and Argentina. I'll send you the whole report but if you need for help just let me know,". "Thanks again. Your the best!," you say before hanging up. "Who was that?," Neal asks. "Um is was Diana. She was asking about some case," you respond. "At this time?."  "Yea I told her I wasn't sleeping recently so..," you trail off. "Hey Neal, I'm gonna get going,". You start to put on your coat when he comes up to you. "Is everything okay?"  "Yea everything is fine," you say. He gives you a hug and plants a kiss on your forehead.
