I smile softly and chuff out a short laugh. "Every time I come on shift after Andrej." That gets the corner of his lip to turn up into a brief smile and there is a knowing roll of the eyes. I know I am not the only one who has a low opinion of Andrej's work ethic.
I lean against the edge of his desk. "This job isn't easy, the things we deal with on a daily basis. To the young ones it's still fresh and exciting but when you've been around as long as we have..."
I sigh softly. "There is only so much destruction one can witness. Some become immune to it like Anderson others like me, perhaps like you, we never quite do." I rest the file down on the desk. "After a while you start to feel the job dragging you down and you question why you bother at all."
I grasp the edge of the desk with my hand and lift the other to rest lightly on is shoulder as I tilt my head and look at him. "So yes I've had days where I would love to just walk away and not look back." I smile at him. "That's when I know I need to take some time out for myself." I wink and chuckle. "Before I end up as one of my own charges down in the dungeons."
His touch sends a warm wave of comfort through me and I close my eyes and take a deep breath. It's been so very long since I've had the touch of a caring soul.
I place my hand over his on my shoulder and open my eyes and look into his. His words ring true.. take some time out for myself.
"I can not remember the last time I did anything that was not work related."
With what else has been going on in his life it doesn't surprise me he has buried himself in work. I've heard the rumours about Lucifer and I haven't witnessed their exchanges but I've heard of them from those that have. The way he touches my hand I feel the longing for some sort of affection or comfort or simply not to feel alone.
I understand how lonely a long life can be and to save yourself for one such as him who mocks what is offered. That must be so frustrating and hurtful. It's extra stress on top of the job.
"You'll go crazy if you don't do something. You need to let off a little steam once in a while." I give his shoulder a slight squeeze. "So what do you like to do?" I grin at him. "Besides work."
I've never noticed his smile, maybe I've just never seen it. I don't know if it's the exhaustion, the frustration or just him but... I stand and lean against my desk next to him, his hand slipping down my arm.
My eyes travel over his face and full lips, "It's been a long time since I've had any fun. What would you suggest?"
He's checking me out! That makes me smile. It's not like I haven't checked him out before. I mean who wouldn't. He's hot in a not so glaring way. Full lips, cute little nose, flowing hair, narrow hips too, yeah I notice these things. I've always been a sucker for a nice set of blue eyes though and his are such a lovely shade.
I decide to take the initiative. I smile and lean in close. "What I would suggest we can't do at your desk." I lightly slap my hand down on his thigh. "So go home, have a rest." I give his thigh a squeeze. "Then meet me back here after my shift."
I pick up the file, take my hand off his thigh and brush it along his cheek as I smile softly at him and stand up. "Trust me, it'll take your mind off things for a bit."
With that I make my way to the door, file tucked under my arm. I stop just before going through it and look back at him and grin. "Dress warm, it's going to be a bit cold." Then I exit before he can say no.
I shiver... and smile. I've never been one for casual sex, but it has been a damn long time and Lucifer.... damn him he knows what he does to me. He's never set a claim on me... not even hinted toward one. I can do as I please.
The heat from his hand still on my cheek, and thigh, I smile as I clear up my desk and slip into the ether and arrive at home. A cup of tea, a shower and some rest. I have eight hours before I meet Jacey.
The thought of what he has in store for, might be cold... hmmm interesting. I laugh at myself loving the feel of not having to use my brain for a case or trying to understand what Lucifer is doing.
During my shower I let my mind wander. Jacey is incredibly attractive, no doubt about that. He came across rather sensual as well. I"m looking forward to tonight. I want to let go - of everything. I want to enjoy yself, I want to feel - just feel.
My shift for once goes mostly uneventful. In my break I use the ether to go back home and get what I need for Andrew. I have them sitting beside my desk in a bag.
Now I am looking at the clock and waiting for the hand to click over onto the five. The thought that he won't come back does push into my mind but I think to myself that if he doesn't come to me then I will just go to him.
It's been a while since I did this with anyone but myself and the company will be awesome. If it leads to other activities, in particular ones that would warm us up, like sex, that would be a bonus. It's been a while. That is another thing that starts to get few and far between when you've been around as long as us.
Finally it's time so I grab up my bag and head up to his office.
I can hear the excitement in his voice and it has me smiling broadly as I open his door and go on in.
I walk up to him still smiling. "I'm glad you came back.." Then I reach out and take his hand. "I've been looking forward to this all night." With that I pull him through the ether and when we step out we are standing in snow.
The moon shines down on the scene in front of us lighting the darkness. There is a large frozen pond, a natural ice rink, and just in front of us and scattered around the edges of it are seats amongst the winter trees. At this time of morning we will have it all to ourselves and soon the sun will come up over it. That is always such a beautiful sight.
I turn and grin at him, plumes of steam coming out of both our mouths as our heated breath cools in the air. "What do you think?"
I look at him and the realisation comes over me. Anyone who had skated before would know straight away what we were here for.
My eyes go wide with mirth and my face cracks into a grin as I take a step toward the seat nearest us and laugh as I tug on his hand to follow. "Looks like I'm going to be getting hands on teaching you to ice skate."
I stumble toward him as he pulls my hand and laugh. I shake my head at myself thinking tonight would be wild heated sex and we are ice skating like children!
"Yes, I believe you will. I have not ice skated in... since I was a child!"
So very long ago, but I do remember enjoying it. Laughing with my friends and brothers. I look fondly at the iced over pond and smile, "Thank you Jacey, I need this."
I squeeze his hand and smile at him. "Sometimes we just need to get back to basics." And just so he knows it's on the table I lean in and whisper in his ear. "You can thank me properly later if you want.."
I pull back, smile and chuckle as I let go of his hand and motion for him to sit. "Now come on let's get these skates on."
I shiver as he whispers in my ear and feel my body warm. My face flushes as well and I smile looking away and sit. I'm so flustered I'm not even sure what to say!
He kneels in front of me and I lift my foot and start to unlace my boots, "Good thing I can heal quickly I foresee a number of falls in my future."
I let out a nervous laugh and roll my eyes at myself. You'd think I was only a hundred years old.
I look up at him as I help remove his boot. "Well I hope to catch you before you do." And there is that smile again.
I go back to grabbing one of the skates I got from home for him and smiling to myself. "You have a nice smile Andrew." I cut my eyes up to him briefly as he slides his foot into the skate. "I like it." Oh good, they fit, I wasn't off in thinking with us being similar heights our feet would be a similar size.
With that I set to lacing up his skates. He could probably do it on his own but it's always better if someone else does and anyway I want to do it. Once I have them done and checked I place his foot down. "That's that one done." I reach for his other one.
I lean against the edge of his desk. "This job isn't easy, the things we deal with on a daily basis. To the young ones it's still fresh and exciting but when you've been around as long as we have..."
I sigh softly. "There is only so much destruction one can witness. Some become immune to it like Anderson others like me, perhaps like you, we never quite do." I rest the file down on the desk. "After a while you start to feel the job dragging you down and you question why you bother at all."

I've dressed warm like he asked, where is he taking me? My mind tries to wander to Lucifer, his heat, but I refuse to let him ruin this for me.
A soft knock at my door has me standing and smiling, "Yes, yes come in!"

I look at him not clear as to why we are here. I look around once more before answering, "It's beautiful, but why..."
His hand still holding mine I do not attempt to break our contact. The cold surrounding us is highlighting his warmth and I do not want to let go.

"Thank you," I hold my other foot out for him, "I want to thank you again Jacey. I think this is just want I need."
