*Teri*

It's crazy to think that once again we are about to wrap up filming right before the holidays, and as usual, Sherri and I are close, heads together between every single take. Everyone is so used to us being joined at the hip and think nothing of the fact that for the last week and a half, she's had her hands up my shirt, and I've been kissing on her neck making her giggle like a little school girl. I can't get enough of her these days, and I know once we break to go our separate ways, it's gonna hurt like hell. One would think that I'd be used to this by now, but no such luck.

"You can't possibly think that if you order that the week before Christmas that you'll get it in time, Polo!" She leans in closer as we are now arguing over shopping for our kids's Christmas gifts.

"I've done it before! And see," I point to the email I had just received, "It says right here that they won't be in stock again THAT week! They have no choice but to get that to me!"

She rolls her eyes as the buzzer once again goes off signalling us to take our spots for this next scene. And so goes our day: shopping in between takes, arguing over shipments and laughing until our sides hurt. As we finish our last scene, she hurries over to me as they call, Cut!

"Hey, were you gonna meet the crew at The Red Piano tonight?"

I raise my eyebrow and begin to protest until I see that she's pretty damn serious right now. "Oh...ummm, are you?"

She removes her cardigan as we walk off the set before reaching over to grab my hand, stopping me. "I will if you will."

I make eye contact and smile softly. Reaching over to tuck a strand of hair behind her ear, I nod. "Okay. If you want to...been a while since I've had a nice, juicy steak."

She beams almost immediately as she quickly pulls her hair up on top of her head, something I never grow tired of seeing as her neck is a super hot spot for me. "Yesss! Good answer, Polo." She leans up to kiss my cheek while gripping the other side of it, making my skin tingle before she changes direction, heading towards the parking garage.

"Wait up, Saum!" I quickly catch up to her, out of breath now.

"What's up?"

"Are you headed home?"

"I was...why?"

I smirk as I grab her hand to link our fingers. "I live over an hour away, darling. If I head home now, I won't be back to The Red Piano."

My heart races as I watch her eyes twinkle. "Spit it out, Polo!"

"Okay, okay! Can I come over and rummage in your closet?"

"Just steal one of Stef's outfits! They won't notice! I'll wash it and return it for you on Monday."

This alone makes me giggle as I contemplate whether or not this could be done, and before I know it, we're both in the costume department, sneakily rummaging through Stef's wardrobe where I settle on the satin red dress Stef had worn for the Christmas episode. Sherri and I argue for almost half an hour before I give in and realize our time is running close for when we need to head out to the restaurant, but I'm not worried as any time with her is as good as any.

*Sherri*

"I'll take another glass of cab, please," I smile at our waiter as I order my third glass. All throughout the night, I've noticed all care of being caught out the window between Teri and me as we know that the crew kind of knows all about us. It's even more comfortable with them considering they aren't part of the cast, and since Teri pointed out to me from day one, they made much better friends in the end.

"Wanna dance, Saum?" her hot breath causing familiar currents to coarse through my body. I cozy in even closer, her arm around my bare arms as I had chosen a strapless black dress. Since the dress falls right at my knees, I have been feeling her warm skin against my legs all night long.

"Here? Now?" I giggle, the wine really going to my head even though I ate a grilled steak salad.

"Yes, here and now," she runs her warm hand over my knee squeezing just right, and I gasp audibly.

"Give me...give me a second to use the bathroom."

She winks at me as I excuse myself. I need air and fast considering we've been getting closer and closer throughout the evening. I freshen up, and by the time I'm back to our table, Nick tells me that Teri has headed off to the top bar, and I grab my wrist-let before heading off in search of her.

When I find her, I see her from behind, her short, blonde hair tossled on top of her head, makes my stomach flutter even more. "There you are. I thought you left me," I tease as I run my hands down her arms from behind.

"Ya? You really think I'd leave after you twisted my arm to come out tonight?"

"Dramatic!" I laugh as I set my wine glass down on the high top and twirl her around so she's now facing me. The music picks up without notice, and soon we are swaying side to side, our bodies moving closer by the minute. This is much different than any other experience, and as real as this is feeling to me, and as dangerous as I know it is, I'm loving every second. The way her pelvis hits my middle just right, and the way her eyes are boring a hole into me, makes the blood in my veins feel like fire as it is directly between my legs at this point.

Between more glasses of wine and more intoxicating dances, I soon feel overheated, and once again excuse myself, this time outside on the back patio. Everyone has either gone by now or are inside, and I soak in the cool night air as I try to catch my breath. I close my eyes as I life my face towards the night's stars and am startled as I feel her warm arms snake around my slim frame. "Shit..."I manage as her lips seer their way across the side of my neck.

"Scare you?"

I turn in her arms and nod as I delicately run my fingers up and down her bare arms. "I came out here so I could breathe, by the way, Polo," I easily admit, and this time, she is blushing.

"I make you hot? Hmmm?" she leans in and kisses my lips now making me moan out loud, not even caring at this point as no one is around.

She grips my ass harder as her lips part, and I whimper even more as I taste the sweetness on her tongue. After several minutes, I push on her chest slightly, out of breath as the song, Do Ya Think I'm Sexy begins playing in the background. "Sit," I command gently yet firm enough so she does so without hesitation.

I pull my hair down and fluff it a little as I begin swaying my hips from side to side, the wine definitely giving me much more courage than normal. I watch as her flushed face moves to her neck and chest, and I don't even notice her phone pulled out to record my sensuous dance. By the time the song is over, she is on her feet, pulling me against her and whispering in my ear. "Take me home, baby..."

And that's all she needed to say...
