No Fireworks

Detective Wally Becker finished his Blueberry Pancakes and Sausage at the IHOP and watched as his former partner ,Detective Nate Nellis and Nate's new partner, Detective Monica Talbert paid for their meal, got up and left...

He had just helped them take down a murder suspect..... He had also been disapointed greatly as Monica's sister, Dr. Monique Talbert had once again been spirited away from under his grasp by that damned Lieutenant Frank Cotton Jr.

He was furious...He had done everything her sister, Monica had told him to do...He had laid back, cut his visits to her office to just once a week..After all she was busy..she was working...He called maybe twice a week...Just shared small talk..and he made sure, two days didn't go by without a delivery of Tulips..

When her car had had a flat...He had fixed it himself...And now tonight,when he had been at his heroic best...Trading shots with a murder suspect that he had helped Nate and Monica set up...His fire was stolen by that damned Lt. Cotton....How he hated him...

He had called Detective Kylie White ,almost out of desperation...

Kylie was also a Homicide Detective...She was a pretty damn good investigator...She was also a gossip...She knew everybody's business..Which was why he had recruited her to keep tabs on Lieutenant Cotton's movements...To her credit..She didn't want to do it..

"I like Lieutenant Cotton...That's my dude...He brought me into Homicide..."she said..

But he begged and begged and finally she gave in...She began giving him information...and he in turn began anonymously texting The Lieutenant's girlfriend in city council, which usually resulted in a phone call...an angry call to the Lieutenant and naturally tensions in their relationship...

Unfortunately...that backfired...Neither he nor Kylie knew that she was in fact seeing City Councilman Floyd Gibbons behind the Lieutenant's back...The Lieutenant caught the two of them..They broke up and The Lieutenant got the greenlight to pursue Monique..

He apparently was doing that...They were together tonight...He was beside himself with anger...

Kylie had been asleep when he called her at 2:00 am in the morning...

"Are you out of your mind? I'm sleep Wally...."she said.

"Come on ..I'm Hungry...Come out with me." he begged...

She thought for a moment..

"You've never offered to take me out before ....Not even after I gave you all that information..What's the occassion?   Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh..I know, baby girl caught you sittin outside her window listening to her and the Lieutenant doin the hoo
chee cooo." she laughed...

He stomped his foot in anger.. That was close...but not quite the case...

"Look..I'm just hungry okay?" he asked...Sorry that he had called her...

"Okay...then take me to IHOP and you payin."she said.

''Okay..I'll be by in a half an hour.."he said.

II-

They had just finished their meal and as promised...Wally paid and left a tip....There was an uneven quietness between them...

"Thank you...that was good....I'm off tomorrow...How bout you?" she asked nervously trying to make conversation..

"Yeah,I'm off too..."said Wally...

"Well..uh...I guess you can drop me off at my place.." she said ,smiling weakly..

"Uh Yeah.." he said.

II-

Kylie looked up at the sky as Wally drove her home...She marveled at the flying cars in the sky....

"My ex had a flying car...Just like Nate's...I sure miss that....I know Monica loves the speed and comfort of flying home.." she  mused..

"Nate got that flying car from the police auction...It belonged to a now deceased gangster."said Wally matter of factly...

She looked at Wally...

"You really don't like Nate do you?" he asked.

"What?  No...Nate is good people...Probably the best partner I ever had..He kept me straight." said Wally Becker..

"Really? You slept with his wife....ruined his marriage..."she said.

"Oh..you know about that huh?" he said ,feeling shame for the first time in a long time...

"Everybody knows about it...You're lucky Nate still speaks to you...A lot of detectives and cops say so.."she said..

"I know...I'm soo sorry I did that.I really am, not one of my better moments." he said..

"No it wasn't." she said.

Now he was angry...How dare she judge him!!!!....Her own husband had recently left her...Probably because she talked too damn much ,he wagered.

"Yeah, and then the man transfers to Homicide to get a new start and you try to date his new partner..Monica.."said Kylie..

He wished she'd shut up!

"Hey I didn't know they were a couple...Nobody did...Not even you." he retorted...

She laughed...

"You are sooo messed up...And then...And then when you find out they are a couple, you start sniffin around her twin sister...Oh My God...They're sisters....You don't think they talk? You don't think that may be the reason she don't want to give you no rhythm? You tried to talk to her sister...You have no shame Wally Becker.."she said laughing hysterically...

By now he had pulled up in front of her apartment complex...

He got out of his car and let her out and followed her to her door...He admired her rear end and the way she fit those jeans she was wearing...Her sexy body and his horniness was winning over his general distaste for this woman..

"My..aint you the gentleman."she said as they walked to the door..

All at once..Wally felt annoyed by the gossipy detective but still kind of turned on...She did have a surprisingly sexy body and she did fit those tight jeans quite well....That and the fact that she wasn't wearing a bra  made her look kind of hot...

"Okay...I'm at my front door...Thanks for breakfast..."she said.

"Kylie." said Wally..

"Huh?" she asked..

"I've never seen your apartment....As long as I've known you." he said.

"Wally...It's nearly three thirty in the freakin morning...This is not really the time for a visit..You could have come over here any number of times and you never showed an interest..."she said.

"No time like the present." he said.

She hesitated for the moment...

Then she unlocked her door...

"Okay...you can come in." she said.

He walked in and said nothing....

"It's dark in here." he said...

"That's because I haven't turned the lights on silly and besides.....You don't really care what my apartment looks like do you?" she said looking at him slyly...

"I don't ." he said and pulled her to him and kissed her softly.....She had surprisingly soft lips and the fragrance she was wearing was intoxicating...

"I knew this was a booty call when you first called."she said softly as she returned his kiss...

"You did huh?"he said..

"Who calls a woman after midnight and asks her to go to breakfast unless they want some?" she said.

He unbuckled his trousers and stepped out of them and his sandals..He slipped her jeans off of her...She was wearing red and white bikini panties...and no bra....he lifted her up on her sink...She slipped his boxers down and smiled sheepishly...

"Oh My goodness Wally...whoooooooo." she said, eying his erection....and softly fondling him...

"Ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!" he moaned....

He began devouring her lips...She was breathing heavily and continuing to kiss him passionately...

They wound up on her bed...kissing and humping like crazy.....

"Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu....oh my gooodnesss...ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh."she moaned..as She and Wally continued kissing.....

"Wait!  Wait a minute..."she said...."Let me get comfortable.." she said...

She got up and walked to her closet...She slipped out of her panties and slipped on a sheer nightie that came to her hips...

Wally's eyes nearly bulged out of their sockets...Kylie crawled up on the bed....

Wally pulled her to him and began caressing her gently...

He was kissing her softly and breathing heavy...

"OHHHHHHHHHHHHHH, Oh My god." he was moaning...

"Wally, you got a condom?" she asked..

"What?" he asked..

"Never mind...I keep some, just in case ..."she said and went to her night stand and pulled out one..

He opened it and hurriedly slipped it on....

They resumed kissing again and he laid her down on the bed and began to enter her softly and slowly....

"Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu Wally...I never imagined...ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu."she said..

"Me neither..ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh my godddddddddddddd..."he said...

For the next five hours...They made slow ,passionate love..You would have never guessed that this was their first time ever..They made love like two people who knew each other quite well...

As surprised as she was that she was in bed with a guy who she secretly dispised....She found herself climaxing....not once...not twice..but three times.....

Her head moved from side to side...sweat and tears poured down her face and she found herself shaking ....Wally exploded and came like a gusher.....It was the first time he'd had sex in four months...He had needed this..For Kylie ,it had been six months...She needed it even more...

They lie next to each other breathing heavily...Wondering what had just happened...She softly rubbed Wally's penis..which got as hard as a brick right before her eyes...

"Ohhhh my goodness..Detective Becker..."she exclaimed...

Before she knew it..He had rolled over and was on top of her again for round two...

They kissed passionately and Wally found himself going in and out of Kylie again...Her skin was soft and her breasts were just a mouthful enough to be perfect for him..He licked and sucked on them until Kylie found herself coming again...

He wouldn't come for another two hours and when he did...He came furiously...Harder than he ever had before...

"OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" he screamed...

Kylie laughed...  A few minutes later...Kylie eased on top of Wally.....

She moved up and down for close to an hour....This motion made them both feel very good...He kissed her neck, her cheek and her lips until he found himself coming harder than he'd come in a long time...

It took her about a minute..but soon she climaxed too...Shaking mightily and moaning until she collapsed on him with sheer exhaustion...They both laughed....

Wally put his arms around her and softly fell asleep....After awhile..she removed his arms and rolled him over to the side...She smiled brightly and then drifted off to sleep...

III-

Wally didn't know how long he'd been asleep...It was one of the most peaceful sleeps he'd had in weeks..

When he woke up...He was in bed alone!!! Had it been a dream?  He looked around...He wasn't in his apartment,so it wasn't a dream...He had spent the night with Detective Kylie White and had made sweet love to her...He smiled...

Kylie walked into her bedroom, she was fully clothed...

"Wow..How long have I been out?" he said.

"Pretty long...Time for you to get up....There are two towels and a wash cloth and body wash in the bathroom..." she said...

He sat up...Kylie had collected his trousers, his sandles...His shirt and his service revolver and shoes and had folded them neatly and placed them in the chair in the corner...

"Last night? It ..It was amazing." he said with a smile...

"Get dressed Detective Becker...We'll talk about last night after you are dressed.."she said coldly...

"Care to join me?" he said with a salacious smile...

Kylie smiled..-"Uhhh no thanks..I've already showered." she said.

He showered and dressed and walked into the kitchen where Kylie had two tumblers of coffee waiting...but no breakfast...

They both silently sipped their coffee...Kylie broke the silence...

"Uh Wally....You know that uh last night was just sex right?" she said.

"Uh yeah...yeah!  It was great sex though wasn't it? I never imagined..." he said.

She smiled wryly...

"It was good sex...I'm actually surprised...but it was just sex...I'm not in love with you and I know you're not in love with me...We were just two lonely, horny people who uh took advantage of a situation." she said.

"We don't have to be uh lonely anymore you know..."he said eying her cleavage slyly...

She buttoned her top button on her blouse...

"Wally no...Last night was good..real good...but there was no fireworks...Not for me babe...And I don't think for you either..I hadn't been with a man since me and my ex-husband split up and that was six months ago....and I guess for you..I'm guessing about four months...Since Nate's ex-wife stopped sleeping with you and got involved with a new man...am I right? Cause I know Monica didn't give you the time of day...and my Lieutenant is tapping her sister...Sooo you been kind of frustrated..."she said.

His general distaste for this woman was coming back....She just didn't know how to leave well enough alone...She talked too damn much!

"Well damn...since you put it that way." he said ,now annoyed and sorry he had slept with Kylie...

She had a habit of saying something so annoying it could put most people off and apparently, she wasn't aware of it...Only someone like her could ruin the afterglow...the beautiful afterglow of the night of passion the two of them had just had....He couldn't believe he had spent hours making love to a woman like this..But she did have a sexy body, nice tits and a fat rear end, he mused..

"So this was uh one and done eh?" he said.

"Yeah...This is not going to happen again...We are not friends with benefits....Just friends...Just in case you were wondering..."she said.

"I wasn't." he said, now visibly annoyed and wanting to leave immediately....

She sensed he was annoyed and she attempted to soften her approach....

''Wally...Wally.. You need to slow up...Take some time off from hunting and try to find out who you really are..What you want...And I guaruntee you, the girl for you will make her self known to you...It will be someone you least expect..Someone right under your nose all the time..You have a lot to offer and you'll make some lucky girl very happy...very,very happy..Believe that.."she said with a smile..

He was good in bed...but her distaste for the man outweighed that....She knew she could never trust him...She wasn't about to become his woman or his friend with benefits...

"But not you,right? Not Monique??" he said..

"We aren't the right girls for you babe....No fireworks....If Monique was for you...You wouldn't have to be doing all of this stuff....Spying on the Lieutenant, calling his girlfriend when he is around her...buying all this wine and all those cariffs and sending her all of those tulips from the florist....Believe me, The Lieutenant aint doin none of that stuff....He doesn't have to....And you'll meet a girl and you won't have to do none of that stuff....Although it is nice when you do a little something extra for a girl..but you see what I'm sayin Wally???...You won't have to do it...All that sittin outside her window listening to her and her company..Who does that? It's stalkerish...When you meet the right girl...You won't have to do that because you'll be inside....in bed with her.." said Kylie..

"Like I was with you last night."he said...almost defiantly...

She smiled...

"Well almost like that...But there will be fireworks...Last night was good sex...GREAT SEX...but that was all it was...no fireworks!" she said again...

Wally stood up...

"I'll be going now....Thanks for last night..."he said without smiling and quietly walked out...

He knew that he was never going to call her  number for anything ever again...And he wasn't going to tell anybody that he had slept with her..

He was sorry he had and had wished he had of just dropped her off and kept going..He was angry...He didn't know why...but he was....

He didn't see her standing by the window blankly staring at him as he drove off into the Philadelphia morning..

EPILOUGE:

A few days later....a bouquet of Red Roses was delivered to the precinct and put of Detective Kylie White's desk...

Detective Monica Talbert walked past Kylie's desk..She marveled at the roses....

"Oh My God...They're beautiful Kylie.." she said.

"Yeah...they just arrived...but there is no name on them...."said Kylie...

"Ouuuuuuuuu secret admirer eh?"laughed Monica as she walked away...

"Yeah...go figure." said Kylie...Just then, it came to her ,who the flowers were from.....

"Wally" she said to no one in particular....

She sat down at her desk and smiled to herself....
