I roll over to my side of the bed, breathing heavily, "You've gotten better," I grin, turning my head to look at him.

"Impossible, I was already amazing."

"I'm not saying you weren't amazing before, I'm just saying you're more amazing now. Get more practice in?"

"None at all. I've been far too busy. Anyways, nobody is as good as you. There's no need to find someone else."

I blush slightly, looking back up at the ceiling. "What brings you to this fine desert?" I ask, changing the subject.

"You're not going to be happy about it."

"Although you do make me happy personally; professionally, I'm never happy to see you at my sites."

"I've been contracted by a private company to find this treasure."

"Yeah, well, I've been contracted by two different governments so, I win."

"The government isn't always the good guy."

"Always the rebel. You should go, I have to get started soon."

"I should get started too," he says, sitting up. He swings his legs off the side of the bed, starting to pull on items of clothing.

"If you try anything, I'll have Oliver remove you from the site," I threaten, crawling towards him to wrap my arms around his torso, pressing a kiss to his shoulder.

"I know, I know. We're starting a few pyramids down, it's not on your list."

"All of them will eventually be on my list," I sigh, pulling away to lay back down.

"That's why I'm starting there now," he grins, standing to put on his boxers and pants.

"I hate you."

"You love me," he laughs, sitting back down on the edge of the bed to pull on his shoes. I open my mouth to respond, but close it immediately. He turns, glancing at me, "I'm just joking, Biz, calm down, I know I'm just an amazing piece of ass to you," his smile grows and he stands.

Despite my inner battle, I laugh, "Definitely an amazing piece of ass."

"I'll see you tonight?" he asks, leaning over to give me a quick kiss on the lips.

"If you're a good boy and stay away from my treasure."

"Are you insinuating that I'm a treasure hunter, because I thought you hated those words."

"It's growing on me," I shrug, reaching to grab the pillow next to me.

"So, does that mean I'm professionally growing on you?"

"No, of course not. Now go!" I laugh tossing the pillow at him. He catches it easily, tossing it back to me.

"Alright, alright. I'm going." He exits the room, leaving me alone to my thoughts, which is never a good thing. God, I love him. We've been 'seeing each other' for over four years. We mostly just had sex whenever we ran into each other. We had dinner or breakfast sometimes, usually while we were still naked. We always bickered about work. He said that since he was doing it longer than me, that it didn't matter that he doesn't have fancy degree to prove that he's good.

After about a year I realized I was falling for him. Early on we had discussed the fact that we could most likely never have a real relationship, because of our jobs, so we agreed that it was easiest to see it as just sex. But seriously, who can have maintain a purely sexual relationship for this long? Feelings happen. They suck, but they happen. And now, I'm in love with him.

So there's that. And he doesn't know that I know he's a wizard. And he doesn't know I'm a witch.

Life is just dandy.

About mid-day, my interns and I are already in the the tomb. The machines indicated something with a strong curse. I saved Rainie from at least two booby-traps in the last five minutes, and I think we located which sector the treasure is in.

"Bizzy, we have company!"

"Locals?"

"It's your boyfriend and his crew!"

I drop my wand, causing the light to go out, "Shit," I mutter, scrambling for my wand, "I'll up in a second!"

I grab the stick from the floor, shoving it into my boot, and jogging up to the entrance, arriving to see Oliver body blocking Maddox and arguing with Bill at the same time. "I thought I told you to stay away from my site. I thought we had an arrangement of sorts," I state, glaring at Bill. Maddox backs off of Oliver, and I step next to my assistant, crossing my arms.

"Exactly, of sorts. The circumstances changed, so we're here now."

"This is bold, you've never tried to take a hunt from my while I'm still working on the site."

"The circumstances have changed," he explains, stepping closer to me, his tone changing to something softer, "I'm sorry about this Bizzy, but it's for your own safety."

"I can handle my own safety. What circumstances are you talking about?"

"We believe there is a dangerous object in this tomb-"

"What makes you think that?"

"We have are ways," Dillon intersects.

I sigh, shaking my head, "I don't care what you believe, I'm not letting you in here."

"This isn't personal, Biz. And frankly, you don't have a choice," Bill turns slightly to look behind him. I lean to the side, peering around him, spotting two men in black suits approaching us.

I laugh, "Is that your backup? Because if it is, you're definitely not getting what you want."

"What do you mean? They-"

"Gentlemen, please join us!" I smile as the men approach, greeting them, "Collins and Price, fancy meeting you here."

"Dr. Gonzalez- we didn't- er-"

"Will you three treasure hunters give us a moment?" I smile at the puzzled men, gesturing away from the pyramid. Hesitantly, Mr. Collins nods at Maddox, and the three men slowly back away.

"Dr. Gonzalez, we were not aware that this was your site. What do you want us to do?"

"Get rid of them."

"They'll ask questions, maybe-"

"You two get rid of them now, I'll handle their questions later."

They both nod, walking over to treasure hunting bastards. I watch as they talk, Bill looks over at me, confused. I shake my head, looking at the ground. After some yelling, they start to walk away as Oliver smirks, waving at them triumphantly.

"Let's get back to work."
