Sitting at his desk nice and early Adam sipped slowly on his coffee as he stared off into space. The place was empty, which was unusual. Rarely was he the first person in but he couldn't sleep. His whole world had been turned on its ear in the last few months and the past weekend had left him with more questions than answers.

It wasn't that he was regretting it; he had zero regrets on that front. It was probably one of the best weekends he'd had in a long time and that in itself was saying something. How he had let things get so far away from him he didn't know and lying awake in the early hours of this morning bought up too many thoughts, too many questions and he didn't know how to deal with them so he tried to squash them and that led him here.

He fired up his computer and logged into his email. 'What the fuck?'

He grabbed his phone and called Al. "Al, what the fuck. Jin was murdered?"

"Yeah kid."

"When? What?" he was clicking on the news websites but there was nothing.

"Friday night sometime. They found him Saturday morning. Where are you?"

"At work."

"Don't do anything or say anything until I get there."

He threw his phone down on his desk and jumped up to refill his coffee. Coming back out just as Jay arrived. "Did you hear?" he asked.

"Yep."

"What do you know?"

"Nothing man." Jay shrugged out of his jacket and hung it on the back of his chair. "Dawson is on his way now, he can fill us in."

"Dawson? Where's Voight?"

"Ivory Tower."

They spent the whole day trying to deal with the news that Jin, one of their team had been murdered and that their boss was being questioned about what he knew. It took his mind off the fact that he had spent the whole weekend with Kim and now there was no chance of bumping into her. The one time he did venture downstairs he managed to just catch a glimpse of her walking down the main stairs and out he door with her latest partner.

Burgess had checked her phone a dozen times. He had sent her a message early that morning simply wishing her 'Good Morning.' And that was it.

Her partner, Gogan had told her about Jin as they headed to their first job. That would explain why he had been quiet all day. Well that is what she convinced herself anyway. She got the chance to text Ruzek just after lunch. Heard about Jin? What's going on?

Don't know much yet. Hey, let's catch up later ;)

Absolutely.

I think we should christen my place.

J

Kim knocked on his door, feeling nervous and excited all at once. She almost dropped the bottle of wine she was clutching tightly when Adam opened the door and quickly pulled her inside and closed the door never letting go of her hand. "Hi." She wasn't quite sure why she suddenly felt shy and awkward.

"Hi." He leant into her slightly and kissed her softly still holding her hand. "It's nice to see you."

"Hi." She muttered again before biting her bottom lip nervously.

"Are you nervous? Why are you nervous?"

"I don't know." Suddenly Adam grabbed her around the waist and pulled her tight against his body and crushed his mouth to hers, kissing her hard and leaving them both breathless.

"Better?" He asked as he led her further into the room. Kim nodded as she took it all in. It was the first time she had been to his place and wasn't' sure what to expect. It was neat but very sparse. Adam went to grab two glasses for the wine while Kim stood nervously and looked around. She wasn't sure if he'd tidied up because she was coming or that he was always this tidy. Not that there was a lot to mess up, a couch, low table, and a huge TV. It was a small lounge room. Ruzek had disappeared through to the kitchen so she followed into the dining room, which was empty except for a couple of stools by the kitchen bench. The best feature of the room would have to be the large window overlooking Chicago and a small balcony. "Nice view." Kim stood up and looked out the window.

Adam came and stood beside her, handing her a glass a wine. "Yes it is."

"So not the best day at work?" Kim took a sip of her wine feeling the awkwardness creeping back in. "Poor Jin."

"Yeah, it's a bit of a shock. Not much to tell though. They are keeping it all very close to their chests."

Kim took another mouthful of wine before turning to Adam and literally crashed into him. It was the only way she could think of to get rid of her anxiety. All day she had thought about him. The weekend had been incredible and despite his reassurances that it was not just a weekend fling doubt had crept up on her.

He responded to her advance instantly taking the glass from her hand and putting both of them down on the bench and took hold of both her hands and led her towards the bedroom, smiling down at her the whole time.

Kim pulled the t-shirt over his head while he fumbled with the buttons on her shirt. It was nice to feel her skin again, the softness beneath his fingertips as he ran then up her back until he found the clasp of her bra and unhooked it and threw it on the rapidly growing pile of discarded clothes. The thrill of the reconnection of their bodies urging them both on until they were breathless and spent on the crumpled bed. "Can I just remind you that yet again you threw yourself at me." He chuckled as he placed a small kiss behind her ear.

"You get me all discombobulated."

"Discombobulated?" Adam chuckled. "Never heard it put like that before." Kim rolled over to face him, her hand resting lightly on his chest.

"Yes, precisely." She looked at him seriously before bursting out laughing and burying her head in his chest. He squeezed her butt tightly until she squealed.

"Well then, you are welcome to get discombobulated around me anytime."

"Deal."

"You know I had this whole evening planned." Adam propped himself up on some pillows "I bought some take-out, I thought dinner, wine blah blah and then this. You blew my plans."

"Funny. I thought this would be your perfect date."

"Oh it is. I have no complaints but Burgess are you just using me for sex?"

"What if I said yes?"

He chewed on his bottom lip, looking thoughtful for a moment. "Oh okay then." He finally answered with a little shrug before flipping her over onto her back and pressing her down into the mattress with the weight of his body.

She pulled on his shirt and followed him into the kitchen. The growl of her stomach reminded them both that they hadn't eaten yet. Kim pulled up a stool to the bench and reached for her glass of wine while Adam, wearing only his jeans grabbed the food from the fridge and started heating it up. "You know I like the minimalist approach you've got going on."

Adam answered without thinking. "Well I haven't had a chance to replace everything since Wendy cleared out." When he turned back around Kim was staring at the wine in the bottom of her glass. She was trying so hard not to have doubts about what they were doing, everything was crashing around inside her but despite that the magnetism of him was impossible to resist.

"I'm up for a clean start. With everything." He leant over the counter and ran one hand up her arm. "New apartment next week too and I couldn't be happier." Kim looked at him, her huge brown eyes full of worry. "Hey, I 'm sorry if I made you feel uncomfortable."

Kim brushed it off. "You didn't. Don't worry about it." She took a mouthful of wine and looked back at him smiling. "Well with the amount of furniture here I am guessing it's a bedsit?"

"Ye of little faith." Adam turned back to grab the food from the microwave. "It actually has a wall between the lounge and the bedroom." He signalled with his arms. "Although I think if you lie in bed you will be able to watch me burning the toast."

"Hmmm, sounds appetizing." He slid a plate of Chinese food across the counter. "Like this." She looked from the plate back to Adam who tried to look hurt. He bought his plate of food over and pulled up the other stool so that their knees where touching as they ate. Each moment they spent together was peeling away at another layer, learning something new about each other. Tonight was a robust discussion about Game of Thrones seeing as they were both huge fans.

"Burgess." Adam groaned, rolling over and trying to grab her arm as she scuttled out of bed and started gathering up her clothes. "Where are you going?"

"Home." She pulled on her underwear and skirt. Adam grabbed the shirt from her hands before she could put it on.

"Why are you going home?"

"Because I have an early shift and so do you." She sat on the edge of the bed and rested one hand on his bare thigh.

"Yeah but you don't have to leave yet. You could sleep here for a bit."

"It's late." Kim quickly snatched her shirt back and slipped it on.

He pulled on her arm so that she fell across him. "When will I see you again?"

"Soon, I promise."

Reluctantly he pulled on his jeans and walked her to the door. Before opening it he pulled he pushed her gently against the door and kissed her hard. Kim bought both of her hands to his face. "Good night."

"Wait are you saying good night because you are leaving or good night because you've had a good night."

"Both and quit trying to stall. I gotta go."

"I hope I see you tomorrow. Even if it is the back of you as you walk out the door."

He rested his head against the door once he closed it behind Kim. Don't think about it he warned himself, just enjoy it. That's all this is right now, two people who were enjoying each other, go with it.

Kim looked at her phone when she got home. Her stomach fluttered a little when she saw she had a message from him.

Sleep well

I am regretting leaving already.

Come back then.

I will see you soon, I promise. Good night.

It would have been easy to give into him and head back over but it was still so confusing. She had so much to lose, her chance at Intelligence perhaps but more than that….her heart. She was in real danger of losing her heart to him.
