She began gathering it up before her girlfriend came through the door, since one of the things they had agreed on when moving in together was that work stayed at work. Shoving the paperwork into her briefcase just as the door opened, she rose from the chair only to startle slightly as the heavy door connected with the wall behind it with a loud bang.
Olivia stalked into the apartment and with her foot, kicked the door shut again, causing another loud bang. Alex stared in amazement and then remarked, “Did the door do something to you or do you normally come home like that?”
The detective jumped slightly at the sound of her girlfriend’s voice. “What are you doing home so early?” she asked the attorney. “And no, the door didn’t do anything to me and I don’t normally come home like that; only after working with Munch all day,” Liv said, her jaw clenching tightly at the mention of her partner for the day.
Alex took a step towards her girlfriend and pulled up short when she caught the distinctive odor of rotten garbage wafting from the brunette’s clothes. “What happened?” she asked as she covered her nose with one hand.
“I had to chase down a peeping tom, all because Munch was having a bursitis attack. The bastard tried to hide in a full dumpster to get away from me then he refused to come out when I found him and I had to go in and pull his ass out!” Olivia growled as she walked past Alex and into the kitchen. She opened the cabinet door under the sink and pulled out a trash bag. “There’s no way these clothes are ever coming clean,” she grumbled.
The attorney made to move towards the fuming detective with her arms held open but Olivia held up a hand stopping her. “No, if you touch me you’ll ruin your clothes, too. I’m going to go fumigate myself in the shower and then have a stiff drink,” the brunette said, sidling away from the blonde and towards the bathroom.
Alex watched her stalk towards the bathroom and ignoring Olivia’s comment about not touching, followed after her girlfriend at a fast walk. She slipped into the bathroom as Olivia was pulling her shirt over her head and picked up the garbage bag, which already held the detective’s jacket.
“Oh, Liv, this was your favorite jacket wasn’t it?” the blonde remarked as she glanced in the bag.
Yanking the tight t-shirt off of her head the brunette grumbled loudly, “I know, it makes me even more pissed at John. And I told you to stay clear; I can clean up on my own.”
“Nonsense, the faster we get you clean the sooner we can order some food and get you to relax,” the blonde said, taking the t-shirt away from her girlfriend and stuffing it in the bag.
Liv shook her head and continued to strip her clothes off. Finally she stood nude before the blonde. Turning away from Alex, she turned the shower on and let it warm up some. “Are you joining me?” she asked with her back towards Alex.
Closing the garbage bag Alex tossed it in the corner and moved to wrap her arms around Liv from behind. She laid her head on Liv’s shoulder and murmured “I could wash your back.”
Turning around in Alex’s loose grip the detective gazed into pale blue eyes and remarked, “I think I’m halfway relaxed, just being home and around you made my stress level drop.”
“Just think of how low that level will be after I’m through with you in the shower,” Alex stated.
Olivia laughed and began removing the lawyer’s silk top one button at a time. She slid her hands underneath the material, sliding it off of the blonde’s shoulders to land in a puddle on top of the skirt that Alex had already let slide from her hips. The matching undergarments followed shortly after that and the detective tugged her girlfriend towards the steaming shower. “Hurry up before we lose the hot water,” Liv said with a grin to the blonde.
Alex laughed. “I don’t think it will make a difference whether it’s cold or not. We can make our own heat,” she remarked as they stepped into the shower.
A few loud giggles were heard from behind the curtain then low moans and murmured voices replaced them as the couple worked on getting the brunette detective clean and relaxed.
