Title: Stages
Rating: It's tame, tame, tame. pea.gee to cover my bases.
Summary: Post-ep for "Here Today".
Pairing: CJ/Will.
Notes: Yeah, I don't know, either.

Except there’s nothing simple about this, he thought to himself as she tugged on the knot of his tie.
“This your way of sealing the deal?” he joked, weakly.
Not a word.
