Chapter 31

Eric and Adriana were back at the lab after processing their crime scene, they were now processing the evidence they had collected.

'so, what's goin' on with you and Speed?', he asked curious, Adriana just smiled, gave him a look that said, "wouldn't you like to know", and carried on processing,

'oh, I see, well how come H knows?', she looked at him puzzled at how he knew H knew, 'Yeah I saw you exchange those looks this morning',

'oh', she finally spoke,

'is that it?', he asked, 'come on, spill, or I'll get it out of Speed later', she sighed and gave in, Eric smiled satisfied,

'I went over to Speed's for dinner last night',

'and?',

'and what?',

'and what happened?', he asked,

'we had dinner', she replied desperately trying to keep a straight face,

'well, how did it go?',

'it went well', Eric chuckled,

'you're not giving much away are you, what about the other night then?, after dinner at H and Cal's',

'what about it?',

'what happened?, Speed drove you home didn't he?',

'Yeah',

'so, what happened?',

'he drove me home', she answered him again, she knew what he meant, but she was enjoying winding him up,

'is that all?, he didn't walk you to your door or anything?',

'he drove me home and yes, he walked me to the door, he also held the car door open for me, he was a perfect gentleman', she answered him, still with a straight face, Eric could tell he was getting somewhere, even if it was slowly,

'is that it?', he asked, fighting back a grin, he knew it wasn't, if he knew Speed, he would have at least kissed her goodnight, even if it was on the cheek like a gentleman,

'ok, you know what happened don't you?', she finally said, not able to hide the grin any longer,

'I've an idea', Eric answered, 'he kissed you goodnight didn't he',

'yeah', she mumbled as she looked down shyly,

'I knew it', Eric gloated grinning, 'so, what happened last night then?' he didn't give up, she looked up at him and she could tell eventually he was going to make her tell him,

'we had dinner, then watched a movie, although we didn't really watch the movie, it was just on, and we were on the couch, and that's all I'm telling you', she told him, looking down and blushing, Eric grinned, he could always manage to get people to talk, he was sure he had learnt it from Alexx when she was always trying to get something out of him.
