Handshake number fifty-six…number fifty-seven…

DG’s smile was becoming fake. She was just sure of it. She was glad that she had requested handshakes instead of kisses to the back of the hand. She was fairly certain the men would be better off making out with each other rather than slobbering all over the same spot on her anatomy.

Not that these weren’t nice men. These were Tin Men. The New Tin Men to be specific. The first class to Graduate and/or be reinstated since the fall of the witch.

Number sixty-nine…number seventy.

DG was glad that they had so many volunteers, but at the moment it was frustrating to have to greet each one because there would be no way she could remember them all. Though that was half her fault, wanting to be personable and all.

Anyway, she was almost at the end of the alphabetized line. Well, the beginning, that is. She had gone in reverse order just to shake things up. That’s what she told everyone else anyway.

Best for (almost) last?

She smiled a real smile as they reached the E’s.

Number eighty-two…eighty-

HOW MANY DAMN EVANS’ WERE THERE ANYWAY!?

Number eighty-seven…

“Demilo, Antoine,” the Tin Man Captain continued his introductions as he led her down the line.

DG blanched at the man in front of her.

“What!?” she exclaimed instead of her standard ‘Congratulations’ greeting.

Demilo gave her a sympathetic wince, offering her his hand.

“Yeah…long time Undercover Cop,” he said, with an obviously lacking accent.

She paused mid-shake.

“You’ve got to be shitting me,” she said before she could stop herself.

The Tin Men within earshot had varying degrees of reactions. Rearing back in surprise, a few gasps, and some quiet chuckles were heard.

“’Fraid so,” he said, slipping back into the accent she was familiar with, tilting his head to the side with a wink.

DG smiled in spite of herself.

“Wow. Well…Welcome back then,” she managed to say with a surprising amount of sincerity.

She was still shaking off her daze when she reached the name she had been waiting for.

“Cain, Wyatt.”

He gave her a sly smile and held up his hand. She felt herself blush and fight not to grin back.

“I still don’t like that you’re doing this…” she said quietly.

He lowered his hand.

“And I still don’t care.”

Some eyebrows were raised at the almost combative interaction. DG wrapped her arms around herself as she twisted back and forth, making her dress sway as she looked from the ground to him.

“I still love you though…” she said, looking up at him shyly.

All eyes seemed to turn towards Cain. A half smirk appeared on his face.

“Good to know.”

She huffed at him and uncrossed her arms from in front of her. He laughed and took a step towards her, catching her hands in his.

“Sweetheart. I don’t think I’d know how to stop loving you if somebody told me to…”

A small smile came back on her face despite trying to still look mad.

“Is that right?” she asked skeptically.

“That’s right,” he confirmed, nodding sagely.

Her smile became more genuine as he smiled at her, glancing down at her lips once or twice.

He leaned down and pressed his lips to hers briefly before the next Tin Man finally spoke up.

“Oh, COME ON!” Jeb whined.

DG turned to him, blushing and laughing.

“Oh I’m sorry!” she exclaimed, abandoning the elder Cain. She threw her arms around Jeb’s neck pulling his cheek towards her. “I didn’t know you were feeling left out!”

Jeb’s protests rang out over the laughter of the rest of the Tin Men. The loudest of all was Wyatt’s.

A/N: Uhmmm…so this came out of nowhere. A surprise visit from an old favorite character and some cheesy fluff that you’ll probably end up choking on. But that’s what this story is all about right? Cain/DG being cheesy and romantic and whoops now everyone knows about them? That’s what I thought. Sorry this was seriously lacking in…effort…
