The sun shines down, warm and unrelenting, across her face. She is reminded again of the season. Winter has left to be replaced by the warmth of spring. Life is blooming all around. Birds are chirping loudly from where they perch in trees and on telephone wires.
She glances at the body beside her. The sheets barely cover his form. She readjusts them so he doesn’t catch a chill.
Climbing out of bed, she moves to the window and stares out at the sky. It’s pale blue, bright and scattered with the wispy puffs of clouds. A bird flutters by. The sound of its wings is loud in the quiet of the morning.
She hears a ruffle of sheets, of movement behind her but doesn’t turn around. Rather, she lets her gaze roam over the few birds she can see and the branches of trees swaying in the gentle breeze. Warm hands take a hold of her arms from behind and then his body is melded into hers, his chin resting on her shoulder.
“Hey,” she murmurs.
“Morning,” he replies.
She lets out a sigh of contentment. “It’s a shame we have to go into work today.”
He doesn’t answer but a moment later she feels cold air where he had held her. She turns to look at him.
“Skinner? Yeah, it’s me. Agent Reyes and I won’t be in for a few hours. We’ve got some... research to do first.” He pauses. “Okay, great.”
She smirks at him as he hangs up and then reaches out to him. “Research, hmm?”
“I figure we can work just as well here as at the office,” he confirms, nodding. “Better view here.”
She takes in his half naked form – a pair of boxers is all he is wearing – and then waggles her eyebrows at him. “I definitely can’t argue with that statement.”
