A Date With My Partner...

">W3bz<": "I look at my partner Kyoko next to me who was tired after a long day of work, she was on her office desk working on a bunch of extra paperwork due to a rookie making a mistake and she has to make up for it."

Kyoko: "Kyoko look at the clock which read 12:00 P.M." "After seeing so, she let out a tired sigh, working on a bunch of extra paperwork due to a rookie making a mistake and she has to make up for it."

"Kyoko's eyes light up slightly at the sight of the cold can of coffee, her tired expression momentarily softening" Ah, thanks... I needed that. Yeah, it seems like this rookie doesn't know what they're doing yet. "She takes a sip of the coffee, closing her eyes in appreciation as she lets out a small sigh of relief"

"Kyoko's eyes narrow slightly as she looks at the paperwork, her brow furrowing in concentration" Yeah, I've been dealing with him for weeks now. He thinks he knows it all just because he went through the academy, but honestly... "She shakes her head and takes another sip of coffee" It's like they're teaching them to be arrogant instead of actually learning how to do their job.

"Kyoko's expression remains serious, but a hint of amusement creeps into her voice" Oh, you mean Rodriguez? Yeah, she seems like a good kid. "She glances at the paperwork before looking back at you with a raised eyebrow" And by "good gut", I assume you mean she's got instincts and can think on her feet?

"Kyoko's expression softens slightly, a small smile playing on her lips" Ah, yeah, I've heard about that. Lopez was raving about how sharp she was during the whole situation. "She leans in closer, her voice taking on a conspiratorial tone" Between you and me, I think Rodriguez might just be the kind of officer we need around here. Someone with some real-world experience... "Her eyes sparkle with amusement as she adds" And someone who can keep up with Lopez's antics.*

"Kyoko's smile grows wider, her eyes lighting up with amusement" Oh, man... I heard about that. Lopez is a wild card, for sure. "She chuckles and shakes her head" But hey, at least he got the job done. And Rodriguez was right there with him, keeping it together despite the chaos.*

"Kyoko's gaze drifts back to the paperwork, her expression turning serious once more" Ah, still a ways to go. This rookie's mistakes are gonna take some time to untangle... "She sighs and rubs her temples" But I'll get it done. Eventually. "Her eyes flicker up to yours, a hint of frustration in their depths before she looks away again."

"Kyoko's expression remains stoic, but there's a hint of relief in her voice as she stands up from her seat" Yeah, I'll manage. Just need to finish this up and then we can head out for that last patrol.

"She grabs the coffee can and takes one last sip before setting it down on the desk." Thanks for bringing me that coffee earlier... It really helped clear my head. "Her lips quirk into a small smile as she adds" And don't worry too much about me. I'm tougher than I look...

"Kyoko's smile grows slightly wider, her eyes crinkling at the corners as she returns your chuckle" Oh, I know you didn't. You're just trying to butter me up so I'll let you get away with being late again, aren't you? "Her tone is playful, but there's a hint of teasing in it"

"Kyoko's expression turns serious again, her eyes narrowing slightly as she looks at you" Oh, I'm not hung up on it. I just remember when you're late, it usually means you've got some kind of trouble brewing... "Her voice is low and husky, a hint of warning in its tone"

"She pauses for a moment before adding" And besides, someone has to keep an eye on your sorry ass around here...

"Kyoko's expression turns skeptical, her eyes rolling slightly as she looks at your hand" Oh, sure it was. Traffic. "Her voice is dry and disbelieving"

"Suddenly, she reaches out and playfully knocks your hand away from your heart" Save it for the judge, partner. I'm not buying what you're selling.*

"Kyoko's expression softens slightly, a small smile playing on her lips" Ah, alright. Alright. This time. But don't think you're getting off that easy next time, got it? "Her voice is still playful, but there's a hint of warmth in it"

"Suddenly, she leans in closer to you, her eyes sparkling with mischief" And by the way... since we're being honest here... I'm glad you showed up late this time. "She whispers low and husky" It gave me an excuse to get some extra coffee.*

"Kyoko's smile grows wider, her eyes sparkling with amusement" Oh, you caught on quick. Yeah, I guess you could say that. "She leans in closer to you again, her voice taking on a flirtatious tone" But don't worry about it. You're the only coffee machine I've got a crush on.*

"Kyoko's eyes widen slightly at your words, a faint blush creeping across her cheeks" Oh? Is that so? "She teases back, her voice low and husky"

"Suddenly, she reaches out and grabs the front of your shirt, pulling you closer to her" And what makes you think I'd say yes to that?

"Kyoko's breath hitches slightly as you lean in closer, your lips only inches from hers. Her eyes dart down to your mouth and back up again, a flash of heat in their depths."

"Suddenly, she shoves you back playfully, though her hands linger on your chest." Easy there, cowboy. We're still on duty, in case you forgot. "Her voice is low and husky, filled with unspoken promise."

"Leaning in so her lips are right next to your ear, she whispers" Once our shift is over, though... all bets are off. "She nips your earlobe playfully before pulling away with a wink." Now come on, let's finish up here so we can get out of here.

"Kyoko's eyes sparkle with amusement as she watches you blush. Her lips curl into a satisfied smile." Alright, you do that. I shouldn't be too much longer here.

"She turns back to her paperwork, but glances over her shoulder at you one last time." And don't think I didn't notice how quick you were to agree to that date, partner. "Her voice is low and teasing." I'll see you in the car... try not to get too excited waiting for me. "She winks playfully before turning her attention back to her work."

As you wait in the car, you can't help but replay Kyoko's playful teasing in your head. The way she had leaned close to you and whispered those words... it was enough to make your heart race.

Eventually, Kyoko emerges from the station and slides into the driver's seat beside you. "Alright," she says as she starts up the car. "Let's hit it."

As the two of you patrol through the city streets, there is a comfortable silence between you punctuated by occasional chatter about work or what happened earlier at the station. As always, Kyoko keeps her focus on their surroundings while still being attentive to anything that might happen between them.

Before long, your shift comes to an end and Kyoko pulls into a parking lot near one of your favorite restaurants downtown. "So... about that date..." she begins with a smirk as she turns off the engine. "You still up for it?"

Kyoko chuckles softly, her eyes twinkling with amusement. "Yeah, I'm being serious this time," she replies with a nod. "I figure we've been dancing around each other long enough... it's about time we see where this could go." She glances over at you and adds playfully, "Plus, I owe you dinner for all the times I've made you buy me coffee."

She unbuckles her seatbelt and opens the door of the cruiser before stepping out onto the pavement. "So what do you say?" she asks as she leans back against the car, crossing her arms over her chest in an almost casual pose that still manages to look incredibly sexy.

Kyoko's eyes twinkle with amusement as she pushes off from the car and stands close to you. "I'm serious this time," she replies, a smile playing on her lips. "And dinner sounds great... somewhere nice, like that new Italian place downtown?"

She reaches out and runs a hand over your arm playfully before leaning in closer. "Just don't make me wait too long for my date." She winks at you before turning and walking towards the restaurant entrance.

As you follow behind her, you can feel your heart racing at the thought of finally being able to take Kyoko out on an actual date instead of just grabbing coffee or talking during patrols. You can't help but wonder where this could go... but for now, all that matters is enjoying the evening ahead of you with someone special by your side.

As you both sit at the table, Kyoko looks stunning in a dark blue cocktail dress that accentuates her curves and makes her look even more alluring than usual. You can't help but feel a little nervous as you study her over the rim of your wine glass, wondering how to break the ice.

Finally, Kyoko speaks up. "So... this is nice," she says with a smile. "I haven't been on a proper date in ages."

You grin back at her, feeling some of your tension easing away now that she's started talking first. "Yeah? What do you usually do when you're not working?"

Kyoko shrugs casually. "Nothing special, really," she admits with a small chuckle. "Hang out with friends sometimes... read books... work out..." She takes another sip of wine before adding playfully, "Oh, and flirt with cute guys who come into the station to report a crime."

You laugh at that. "Is that right? And do you get a lot of those?"

Kyoko's lips curl into a mischievous grin. "Depends on how you define 'a lot'." She leans in closer to you, her eyes twinkling with amusement. "But I gotta say... none of them hold a candle to my favorite partner."

Kyoko chuckles softly, a warm glint in her eyes. "You certainly are," she replies playfully before taking another sip of wine.

For a moment, there's a comfortable silence between you as you both take time to enjoy your meals and the ambiance of the restaurant around you. You find yourself stealing glances at Kyoko every now and then, marveling at how gorgeous she looks tonight.

As dinner winds down and dessert is brought out, Kyoko turns to you with a small smile on her lips. "So... what do we do now?" she asks teasingly.

You grin back at her. "Well, I was thinking maybe we could catch a movie or something? There's that new action flick playing downtown."

Kyoko nods thoughtfully for a moment before smiling brightly. "That sounds like fun." She takes your hand across the table and gives it a squeeze. "Lead the way, partner."

Kyoko smiles up at you, her eyes sparkling in the streetlights. "Thanks for coming with me," she says softly. "I had a great time."

As the two of you walk down the sidewalk towards the movie theater, there's a comfortable silence between you as your arms brush against each other every now and then. You can't help but feel an electric charge between you, and it takes all your willpower to focus on walking instead of grabbing Kyoko right there and kissing her senseless.

Before long, you reach the theater and buy tickets for the latest action movie that just came out. As soon as you sit down next to each other in one of those chairs built like a bed so that everyone could stretch their legs comfortably without interrupting others beside them, Kyoko leans close to whisper something into your ear.

"You know... if we wanted our own private showing, I could think of a few things we could do instead..." she murmurs huskily, her breath hot against your ear. "But... that might be a bit risky."

She sits back and looks at you with an impish grin on her lips. "So let's just enjoy the movie for now, shall we?"

Kyoko giggles softly at your response, a mischievous glint in her eyes. "Oh, but it's so much fun to mess with you," she says playfully before leaning back into her chair and turning her attention to the movie.

As the action on screen unfolds, Kyoko finds herself getting more and more caught up in the excitement of it all. She gasps and cheers along with the characters as they fight their way through impossible odds, occasionally squeezing your hand tightly when things get particularly intense.

Afterwards, as you both exit out of theater room smiling from ear-to-ear due to an amazing night together watching that fantastic movie; Kyoko turns towards you once again. "So... what now?" she asks softly.

Kyoko grins at you and squeezes your arm. "Are you kidding? I had an amazing time," she says enthusiastically. "Dinner was great, the movie was awesome... but most of all, it was just nice to be out with someone who actually makes me feel something."

She leans in closer to you, her eyes glinting mischievously again. "So what about you? Did I live up to your expectations as a date?"

Kyoko rolls her eyes playfully, but you can see the hint of a smile tugging at the corners of her lips. "You're such a charmer," she teases lightly.

As you both continue walking down the street, enjoying each other's company, Kyoko suddenly stops and turns to face you. "Hey... do you mind if we head back to my place for a bit?" she asks softly. "I just feel like I'm not ready for this night to end quite yet."

Kyoko nods eagerly. "Sounds perfect," she says with a grin before taking your hand and leading you towards a nearby convenience store.

As you both browse the beer selection, Kyoko takes her time picking out just the right one for them to enjoy later at her apartment. Eventually, she settles on something that looks strong and dark in flavor but still has some sweetness in it.

With beers in hand, the two of you continue walking down the street until finally reaching Kyoko's apartment complex. As you climb up the stairs to her unit, there's an excitement building between both of your hearts as neither wants this evening to come to an end quite yet...

Kyoko smiles warmly as she walks into the living room, glancing around briefly before turning her attention back to you. "Thanks... it's not much, but I like it." She gestures for you to sit down on the couch while she goes to grab a couple of glasses from the kitchen.

As she returns with two clean glasses, Kyoko takes a seat next to you and begins pouring out generous servings of the beer that was bought earlier. As soon as both glasses are filled up sufficiently, she hands one over towards me before taking a sip from hers.

"So," Kyoko says after finishing off her drink. "Tell me something about yourself that I don't already know."

As the night wears on and you both continue to drink, Kyoko becomes more relaxed in your presence. She leans closer to you as she talks, her body almost pressed up against yours on the couch.

You can feel a heat building between you that has nothing to do with alcohol. As the conversation turns towards more personal topics, Kyoko admits some things that she's never told anyone before... things about her past relationships, fears for the future and insecurities.

Without even realizing it, you find yourself reaching out to take her hand in yours... and when she doesn't pull away or flinch from your touch, something within both of your hearts explodes with a sudden surge of emotion.

Before either of you know what's happening next; Lips meet lips softy under a kiss filled with passion that is driven by lustful energy coming from deep within each other.

Kyoko melts into your embrace, returning the kiss with equal passion and intensity. Her hands slide up your back, fingers tangling in your hair as she pulls you closer to her.

As the kiss deepens and becomes more urgent, Kyoko's heart pounds within her chest with a mixture of excitement and fear. She's never been one for casual hookups or flings... but there's something about this moment that just feels right.

Eventually, the two of you pull apart from each other slightly, breathing heavily as you stare into each other's eyes. In that moment of vulnerability and intimacy, everything else fades away until it is just you and Kyoko locked in an intense gaze filled with raw emotion.

Finally, Kyoko speaks up softly. "Stay with me tonight," she murmurs quietly against your lips before leaning in to claim another fiery kiss filled with unbrid led passion and desire.

Kyoko pulls back from the kiss, her gaze focused on you as she hesitates for a moment. "Wait," she says softly, her voice filled with uncertainty and vulnerability.

"I... I just want to be sure about this," she continues, leaning in close to whisper into your ear. "I don't want things to go too far if we're not both completely comfortable with it."

She looks at you with deep sincerity in her eyes before continuing. "Are you sure about this? Because once we start, there's no going back."

Kyoko smiles gratefully at your words, leaning in to give you a soft kiss on the lips. "Thank you," she murmurs against your mouth. "I appreciate that."

As she settles back onto the bed beside you, Kyoko takes your hand in hers and begins tracing circles on your palm with her fingertips.

"I... I just want this to be special," she admits softly after a moment's silence. "You know? Like... not just some fling or one-night stand or something like that." She looks at you hesitantly, as if unsure of how you'll react to her vulnerability.

You reach out to stroke her cheek soothingly before smiling warmly at her. "Of course it will be special," you say reassuringly. "We'll take things slow and make sure we're both comfortable with everything."

Kyoko looks up at you with a grateful smile, her eyes shining with emotion. "I want to make it work too," she says softly before leaning in to give you another kiss, this one gentle and sweet.

As the two of you settle back onto the bed together, there's an air of intimacy and closeness that fills the room. You can feel Kyoko's heart beating steadily against your chest as she snuggles close to you, feeling safe and secure in your arms.

For a long time afterwards, neither of you speak much as words are not necessary for now. Your breathing slow down eventually until both of fell asleep cuddling each other warmly without any physical contact beyond that intimate hug between lovers in their first night spent together under romantic circumstances filled with affectionate touchings and playful whispering about dreams shared together...

Kyoko stirs in your arms as the sunlight streams into the room, her eyes slowly fluttering open. She blinks a few times before glancing up at you with a smile.

"Good morning," she says softly, her voice still husky from sleep. "Last night was... amazing." She leans in to give you a gentle kiss on the lips.

As she pulls away, Kyoko winces slightly and puts a hand to her forehead. "Ugh... I think we drank too much last night," she admits ruefully with a chuckle.

You nod in agreement and pull yourself upright next to her on the bed, feeling just as groggy as she does. "Yeah, I definitely feel it too," you reply with an amused grin.

For a moment there's silence between both of us before Kyoko speaks up hesitantly. "So... where do we go from here?" she asks softly, her eyes searching yours for an answer. "I mean, last night was amazing but... what does this mean for us?"

Kyoko smiles warmly at you, returning your embrace with a soft sigh of contentment. "I like the sound of that," she says softly, her fingers tracing soothing circles on your back.

"As much as I'm attracted to you and as much as I enjoyed last night... I don't want things to move too fast," she admits honestly. "I just want us to get to know each other better first."

You nod in agreement, feeling relieved that she feels the same way. "Same here," you reply sincerely before giving her another gentle kiss on the lips.

As the two of you snuggle up together once more under blankets while talking about everything from work life experiences to hobbies we both enjoy doing; There's no doubt anymore between our hearts how this journey will play out... And there's not an inch in either minds that their love for each other will only
