Amy had on a dreamy expression as she stared at the ceiling. She slowly run her fingers on her lips. Zach had just kissed those lips. She could still feel his lips against hers even though he was no longer kissing her. And, he had dry humped her.

She could feel that thing hitting her even with their clothes on. It brought back memories to the night they spent. It was as huge as she felt it earlier. Her face heated up from such a thought.

The sound of the shower running caught her attention. Zach was currently washing up and taking care of his 'problem'. It had been a while since she saw that 'problem'. She could sneak up on him and peek while he's showering.

'What a pervert!' she scolded herself.

She let out a deep breath and brushed off the insane thought.

'1 sheep, 2 sheep, 3 sheep.....', she mentally counted trying to keep her thoughts from straying to the naughty.

Zach came out of the shower in another pair of sweats and a shirt. He smiled when he saw her on the bed and she smiled back. Her nose was instantly teased by his familiar woody scent with a hint of citrus. He went over to the other side of the bed and got under the sheets.

,m "Hi", he whispered as he pulled her into his arms.

"Hi", she whispered back as she buried her face in his chest.

He adjusted his head to comfortably lay on the pillow before he started playing with her hair.

"Are you sleepy?" He asked.

"Not really."

How could she be after the kiss they just shared? Every inch of her was wide awake after that. Sleepy? Not anytime soon. Zach was silent as he rested his chin on top of her head.

"Baby?" He softly called out to which she hummed in response. "There's something I'd like us to talk about if you're still not sleepy."

She lifted her head and rested it on the pillow so she could face him. She nodded away as her eyes searched his. His expression was serious though his gaze was gentle. What could it be? She wondered.

"It's about the situation we're in. I promised that I won't push you into doing something you don't want or are not ready to do. But, I'd like to break part of that promise", he confessed. He worriedly searched her eyes and he saw the slight panic.

"What is it?" She asked in a voice that was almost a whisper.

"I was able to reunite with you because of the medical emergency. I know you've been keeping your distance and deliberately went off the grid because of the situation. I respect that, but there's one thing I can't do anymore. Physically stay away from you. I can't do that anymore Amy, and I'm not just saying this because of the baby. I want to be with you, be there for you and protect you. I've wanted this from the moment I met you."

She felt her heart ache. A great man like Zach Frost was showing his vulnerability to her. And in the center of that vulnerability was her. Guilt overwhelmed her by this thought and her eyes clearly expressed this saddening truth. She let out an awkward chuckle to ease the terrible feelings.

"I thought you'd say this", she let out a sad smile as she looked at him. "I, also, don't think I can stay away from you anymore. But, there are certain things you have to know concerning my life here and the Gwen situation."

"Don't feel pressured to tell me. All I wanted you to know was that I'll not leave your sight. You can take on our enemy with me beside you, and you have me and everything I have at your disposal", he tucked a strand of hair behind her ear. She could see the honesty in his words but she shook her head.

"No, I want to tell you. I want to be honest with you."

Her yes now reflected her determination. She was not sure when but shes always found him to be trusting. Maybe that's why she trusted him with Parton's information even when they were just strangers, she revealed her real identity by using her real voice through those voice connections even when she knew her location could easily be tracked (of course, it would take a genius), she has maintained communication with him not just because of the baby, and she trusted he would take care of the baby should anything happen to her. It seemed, she has always trusted him even if it was subconsciously.

Zach's brows furrowed in displeasure when he heard her story throwing her into nervousness. She felt even more disappointed in herself. He must have a negative view of her now because of her lies.

"This husband... did it have to be a military man not a business man?" He grumbled.

Her mouth fell open. That's what upset him? Well, he didn't like her building her back story based on some random guy she made up. A business man, him to be specific, would be perfect.

"Uh.... it perfectly explained his absence but you'll be happy to know I built up his back story based on a certain man I know", she said coyly as she started drawing circles on his chest.

He smiled when he saw this and hooked a finger under chin to align her lips with his. He brushed his against her soft ones in an unhurried motion as he savored the addictive feel of them. He felt her catheter free hand squeeze his shirt as the kiss progressed.

He pried her mouth open with his jaw before sliding his tongue inside her mouth. Her warm tongue danced with his making him hold the back of her head by gripping her hair as he deepened the kiss. That action turned her on. The sound of their rapid breathing echoed through the room. He broke the kiss so they would catch their breaths as he rested his forehead against hers.

"I got carried away. .. I may not be sorry", he chuckled.

"Me neither", she said breathily.

They fell quiet and let themselves calm down from the intense makeout session. Zach was not the only one who almost lost control. She wanted his kisses but she wanted all of him too.

A simple gesture as a kiss from him was already driving her on the edge. He let out a breath and she felt the same pressure on top of her head again. This time she knew, he had just kissed her there. With her mind sobering up, she decided to continue with her story.

"Now, about Greco Pharmaceuticals."

Zach's ears perked up and he remained attentive about what she was about to say. There were so many things he wanted to know. It seemed, he would be getting those answers tonight.

"Have you heard of Project Armageddon?" She started.

'Oh! Shit!'
