Frankie and Will had gotten together in Prague. Will had told her it couldn't be a one time thing for him. In turn she told him she needed to take it slow. He agreed but knew it was going to be difficult. Now that they had finally crossed that invisible line that had been keeping them apart he wanted everything with her.

They got on the plane to go back home. "So where do we go from here?" He asked.

"Home. We're on the plane" she teased. He just stared at her, unamused.

"I'm hilarious" she said, smiling at her own joke.

"Are you though?" He said scrunching up his face teasingly.

"I want to keep it between us. For a while" she said answering his question.

"Fair enough" he said "But it is going to be hard to not do this" he said leaning over to kiss her. "Especially since I've wanted to for so long and now I finally can" he grinned happily.

"We'll still do plenty of that, just in private" she assured him.

"You really don't think the team will figure it out?" He asked.

"If they do I'm sure it will be because of you" she said giving him a knowing look.

"Hey I can't help it if I'm super proud of my boo bear" he teased.

"Ewww absolutely not" she said making a face.

"No to boo bear, noted. How about Baby?" He suggested

"How about no" she said.

"Bae? Boo? Babe? Honey? Sweetie? Love bug? Pumpkin? Sugar butt?"

"I will kill you" she said, glaring at him, causing him to laugh.

"We'll just see what develops" he nodded.

"I'm hoping Susan and Ray will be enough of a distraction to keep the focus off us for a while" she said.

"Yeah that's going to take some getting used to" He said.

"Are you okay with it?" She asked.

"Ray's not a bad guy" he said to which she raised an eyebrow

"You might actually be the nicest guy in the world" she said with a smirk, shaking her head. Only Will would forgive a guy that stole his fiancee and lied to him for seven months while being his best friend.

He laughed "I know you're making fun of me but I'm still going to take that as a compliment. Anyway it seems like they really care about each other so I support it a million percent. I love love" he smiled brightly.

She bit her lip and watched his face, finding him adorable despite her best efforts.

"Wow I'm so proud of you. I set you up perfectly and you didn't come back at me with a snarky comment. That's personal growth" he said patting her leg.

"I wanted to though" she said with a mischievous grin.

"Partial credit then but still growth!" he said, ever positive.

"So are we going to go on dates or how's that gonna work?" He asked, getting back to the original conversation.

"Oh my God you're going to be exhausting aren't you?" She sighed

He shrugged "A normal person wouldn't think so but to you probably"

"Can we stop talking about it for now if I let you hold my hand for a little while?" She offered.

"Deal" he said quickly wrapping her hand up in his. "Look at that we're already great at compromising" he grinned and settled in for the long flight home.

Once they were back with the team Susan quickly read them and gave them a huge knowing smile and made a motion of zipping her lips to let them know their secret was safe with her.

Will looked at his watch "Well that didn't take long" he said to Frankie. She downed her drink in one gulp and shoved her glass at Will to refill, clearly uncomfortable with having been found out.

Once Susan was sworn to secrecy Frankie loosened up a bit. She even spoke about Will to her a little while Susan endlessly overshared about her and Ray.

Will and Frankie settled into a routine over the next month of hanging out at Will's place when then they weren't on missions, sharing movie nights, take out and wine the same as they had been doing. They pretty much kept separate during missions because they didn't want to have any slip ups being on Comms and because of Jai's propensity to bug them.

"You know it doesn't actually feel like much has changed" she told him in bed one night. She allowed for a limited amount of post sex cuddling.

"We have sex now, that's a pretty big change" he grinned. "Now if I could just convince you to stay over that would be another welcome change" he said hopefully.

Her face went blank "You said you wouldn't push me" she said getting up to get dressed.

"It's been a month, I think things are going great. I just want to keep moving forward" he explained gently.

He saw the uneasy look on her face and decided to drop it. He got up out of the bed and threw on a shirt and shorts "I'll walk you out" he said.

"Like I need a bodyguard" she huffed

"Well I want to protect that body" he teased which earned him an eye roll.

"You're dumb" she responded with a smile.

"Besides it's the polite thing to do when someone comes over to have sex with you, makes it feel less like a booty call" he frowned.

Frankie saw the disappointment his face and hated that she had caused it. She wanted to tell him they would get there, that she was doing her best but the words wouldn't come. Instead she took his hand and gave it a squeeze and kissed him softly.

"Goodnight Frankie" he said softly

"Goodnight Will" she repeated.
