Secrets

Doctor Love Good

The summer heat in the heart of Ocean City is bearable as long as you're poolside or on a beach.

Unfortunately for detectives Ballias and McGuiere they were stuck in the middle of a police bull pin with no power. Some idiot ran headfirst into a transformer blowing the electric for the entire block. Seeing as it wasn't terrorist-related and a slow crime day the chief opted to not have the backup generator ran to conserve it for 'real emergencies.'

Their only source of light came from the open windows around the room, thankfully it was a bright sunny day.

"How is us sweltering to death, not a real emergency," whined Kendall as he practically melted into his desk chair.

"You literally just walked in from your air-conditioned patrol car, Wakefield," snapped Ben. "We've been dealing with this shit all morning."

"Hey, you don't have to wear an additional fifty pounds of gear in this mess," came Kendall's reply.

"No one told you to stay a patrol officer Ken, you were given the same offer we were," sighed Dean.

"Jenny would kill me if I didn't have the set schedule patrol offers have, Gavin just started sleeping through the night and I've never seen my fiancé happier," he began, "now toss in calls throughout my home time at random hours that could result in me having to leave suddenly, or wake our sleeping child and I'm pretty sure she would take the baby and leave me."

"I remember those days," sympathized Ben, "Megan was not a happy camper, especially when we caught a break in that serial arson case. She had just gotten a cranky, colic-y Chase to finally fall asleep and my phone went off waking him back up. Bad day for me. I'm glad we finally figured out a system that works for us."

"Yeah, you call it a nanny. You're so lucky you don't have to worry about all this Dean," sighed Kendall dodging a ball of scrunched up paper aimed at his head from Ben. "I love Jen and Gavin and these two and a half months have been amazing but man, sometimes I miss the bachelor life."

Dean sent Kendall a tight smile while Ben laughed so hard, he almost fell out of his chair.

"Have I missed something?"

"D-Do you," Ben tried to explain through his tears of laughter but held up a finger to Kendall trying to pull himself together.

"What chuckles," Dean snapped throwing a pen at his partner, "is trying to say is, I have a girlfriend."

"What?!" Kendall gasped almost sounding like a minion.

"Yup," Ben gasped finally catching his breath, "and you'll never guess who it is."

Dean just shook his head he knew Ben was dying to tell him. So, he waved a dismissive hand giving him the go-ahead.

"Dr. Woods," smirked Ben.

"NO!" Kendall's mouth gaped open in shock, "you couldn't stand her! I swear you wanted to tear her head off the day Gavin was born."

"More like tear her panties off," laughed Ben.

Dean's head made contact with his desk as he groaned in embarrassment. He knew where this conversation was going, man did he regret telling Ben about his sex life with Rachel.

"Wait, you've already hit it and you're still with her!" gasped Kendall.

"First night, said she growled his name and made him feel like a virgin all over again," Smiled Ben enjoying ribbing Dean for once, "he almost popped early."

"Bro!" Kendall's face was red as he tried his best not to fall over laughing, "Doctor tease almost made you cum early? Therefore, you let her lock you down and give you a label."
