Caspian grinned.
“Oh, no. My secret place is discovered,” he joked, as he could feel how tense Rayna was.
And there was no need.
That made Elizabeth laugh.
“If you think I didn’t hook up in this closet with Ethan and Callen at least ten times a piece, you clearly don’t know me well, Cas.”
He winked at her.
Oh, he didn’t doubt that.
At.
All.
Elizabeth focused on the woman.
“Come on, Chief. It’s time for morgue-y fun. Or as I like to call it‘the time I drive my sexy ME insane with trying to ask him questions I know he can’t answer but when he flushes I get all giddy’,” she admitted. “You can feel up my Archangel later. Then, you can tell me all about it,” she teased, winking at Rayna.
She laughed.
How could she not?
He could feel that she was tense, so he put his hand over Elizabeth’s eyes.
“Sorry, I can’t kiss the pretty lady while you watch, Mom. It’s weird.”
She snorted, and backed away so Caspian could do the deed. Who was she to stop him?
Like she’d said, she’d had fun in that closet more than a few times.
After kissing her like he meant it, Caspian let her go, regretfully, and Rayna followed her.
She was struggling to focus.
Somehow, she did.
“Can I grab a coffee?” she asked, pointing at the vending machine as they went to walk past it. “While that kiss was an adrenaline rush, I need some caffeine. I’m dragging ass because your Archangel is addictive.”
While she was happy to hear that, Elizabeth stopped her.
“Nope. I can’t let you drink that death liquid. Chris has coffee in the morgue. Trust me. It’s better, and it won’t make you regret your whole day.”
Well, that worked for her.
So far, despite the head on her deck, she was having a decent day—or she had been when she was locked in a closet with a hot Marine.
As they reached the morgue, inside, it was quiet, and she could tell that the team wasNOThappy. The techs were working, but the room felt tense.
Something had happened, and she wasn’t sure if it was the usual suspects or someone else.
Before she could ask, Tony rolled her way, and ratted his boss out.
Wholeheartedly.
“We were only listening to music, and the big mean doctor took it away.”
