What We Kept Secret

Chapter 7

We waited for the pizza to get here. I was sitting on the couch as he was getting something ready in the kitchen. His dog jumped on to the couch next to me and laid his head on my lap. I was paralyzed with fear by this point.
"Um, Will." I yelled out to him
"Ya" he said walking back in and seeing me point down at the huge dog sitting on my lap
"He likes you Cher." He smiled and laughed a little
"This isnt funny. Dogs scare me. Like big dogs terrify the shit out of me." I said still freaking out about this situation
"Ranger, down." He commanded and sat next to me
"So, the beautiful tuff FBI girl of my dreams is scared of dogs?" He asked looking amused
"I use to not be. Its a long story." I said rolling my eyes
"Do tell." He said looking like a child waiting on story time
"It was last year we were on a case. Reid and I were at the unsubs house and he ran to the barn. Or so we thought. I didnt have cell service and he didnt want the unsub to get away. He went around the back and I went to through the front. I didnt hear him yell about the unsub going into the field in the back. I had my gun pointed in front of me  and I saw all the bodies of the missing people. I heard a growl." I said starting to shake remembering the moment as he grabbed my hand encouraging me to go on
"I looked around and I saw three huge dogs circling around me. They all leaped at me and I was only bit by one on my arm. I had to shoot and kill them to survive or I would have been completely dismembered." I said wiping a lone tear from my face
"Im sorry. I will see if Charlie will take him for the week to make you more comfortable." Will said comforting me
"It fine. I promise." I said smiling and looking at the dog sleeping on the floor
"Are you sure? I dont want you to be scared when you visit me." He said still concerned
"I better start getting use to him right?" I asked giving a hint that I would be coming down to see him a lot more
"Well you two will become best friends." He said smiling as there was a knock on the door and we both got up. I pulled my wallet out but when I turned around he already paid for it and was plating it up
"Am I ever going to pay?" I asked raising my eyebrows
"Nope." He said smiling and giving me my plate and a glass of wine
"I dont really drink Will." I said giving him a look
"Your not pregnant are you?" He asked surprised
"No." I laughed "Im a light weight and act differently when I have alcohol in my system." I said still eyeing the glass
"Well good thing its just me and you." He said smiling and winking as I followed him to the table
We ate and laughed telling stories about our jobs and the craziest things we have seen and we were two bottles of wine deep and on our second beer each.
"So, why havent you married?" He asked again
"You already asked that." I said giggling. I was drunk I knew I was
"Im asking it again. I wanna know why a perfect girl like you isnt married." He said moving a strand of hair behind my ear
"Guys dont understand my job. They expect me to just drop everything when they need me too." I said a little upset at the fact I was almost twenty-seven and still single.
"I understand it." He said bringing his face closer to mine with his hand now holding my face. I dropped it down to avoid looking into his eyes that I was always lost in
"Dont look down Darlin. I want to see those eyes." He said picking my chin up and even more close to my face
I let out a small smile and the next thing I knew his lips were on mine. It was the best kiss of my life. He pulled away and we were both breathless.
"Im, Im sorry Will." I said backing up
"Im not. That has been so far the best part of your week being here and it hasnt even been a day." He smiled
"But...." I started to say but he interrupted me by crashing his lips on mine to shut me up. It got heated and the next thing I remembered was being picked up and carried to his bed.
