See y’all in the morning.”

    Sam murmured his goodbyes along with Bo. David clapped Sam on the shoulder before grabbing his jacket and following Cecile outside. The door clicked shut, leaving Sam and Bo alone in a heavy silence.

    “Are you going to tell me what she said?” Sam asked when Bo failed to offer any information.

    “She doesn’t want you around the boys during the investigation.” One corner of Bo’s mouth hitched up in a bitter smile. “Unfortunately, I know that’s no surprise to you.”

    “No, it isn’t.” Rising to his feet, Sam walked around the desk and pulled Bo up as well. “What do we have to work with here? Am I even allowed to participate?”
    “Yes.”
Sam blinked, surprised. “Really?”
“Yes, really.” Bo let out a sharp laugh. “If Janine had had her way, you wouldn’t be.
But I told her we need the full team, which I believe we do, and Lee backed me up.”
“So what are the limitations?”
    “She agreed to let you come with us Friday night, but that’s it so far. I asked Lee to talk to her and try to convince her that I want you with us on this because you’re an important part of the BCPI team, not because you’re my lover. He said he’d try.” Bo wound his arms around Sam’s waist, his expression apologetic. “I’m sorry, Sam. I would’ve changed her mind if I could, but you know there’s only so much I can do. It is her house. Well, half hers, anyway.”
    “I know.” Forcing a smile, Sam looped his arms around Bo’s shoulders and pulled him close. “Hey, at least I’m going the first night. That’s more than I expected, to be honest.”

“Lee’s a good influence on her.” Bo tilted his head to plant a kiss on Sam’s lips.
    “When we were married, she never would’ve given even an inch. I got the distinct feeling the only reason she did this time is because Lee wanted her to.”

    “Hm.” Sam returned the kiss, with a hint of tongue this time. “I may have to reevaluate my opinion of the guy.”

    “I agree.” Bo pressed closer, his thigh sliding between Sam’s legs to lodge against his groin. “Let’s go home, Sam. It’s been a long day, and I really just want to curl up in bed with you right now.”

    “That sounds like a plan to me.” Sam rubbed his crotch on Bo’s leg. “You want to stop and get take-out, or you want me to make soup and sandwiches?” Bo’s hand slid into Sam’s hair. He pressed his cheek to Sam’s. “Grilled cheese?
    With tomato?”
“Of course.” Sam tilted his head sideways so Bo could kiss his neck. “I know how much you love grilled cheese and tomato sandwiches.” “Mmmm.” Bo’s tongue traced the shell of Sam’s ear. “It’s so sexy when you cook for me.”
    “Probably because I hardly ever do it.” Groaning, Sam snagged Bo’s braid in one hand and tugged him away. “You’d better stop, unless you’re up for a quickie on your desk.”
    An evil grin spread across Bo’s face. “Well, I do have lube in the drawer.”
“Oh, my God.” Planting his hands on Bo’s shoulders, Sam held him at arm’s length.
“You have lube in your desk drawer? Seriously?”
“Yes.”
“Damn.” Sam laughed. “We’ve been together a whole year now, but you still surprise me.”
Bo’s eyebrows went up. “Is that good?”
    “Definitely.” Sam leaned in for a quick kiss, then stepped back. “Come on, let’s go home. I’d much rather you fucked me in our bed than across your desk.” 36

“Truthfully, I agree with you.” Bo grabbed Sam’s jacket from the coat rack and handed it to him. “We can use my desk another day.” “Oh, yeah. I’m not forgetting about that , what with the lube in the drawer and everything.”
    Bo snickered, and Sam grinned. It was good to see Bo relaxing a little after the confrontation with Janine. It could’ve gone much worse, but the whole thing had clearly been stressful for Bo.
