Notes: The song used is I'm Amazed By You by Lonestar.
This is the sequel to In My Arms Again.
It took six more weeks, but the assignment had concluded smoothly, a fact for which Ezra was extremely grateful. By the time he reached the Federal building that night, the rest of the team was gone. Ezra wanted nothing more than to be at home, in bed with Vin, but he knew if he didn't start on his paperwork now, he probably never would.He walked through the main office in the dark, only flipping on the lights by his and Vin's desks. He slid tiredly into his chair and began typing, his exhaustion making it take twice as long as it normally would. When he finally finished, he saved it and shut the computer off, then leaned back in his chair.
He sighed in pleasure when a pair of hands appeared and began kneading the tension out of his shoulders. "I've missed you, Vin."
Vin leaned down so that Ezra would be able to feel his breath against his ear. "I missed you, too, Ez. And I came up with somethin' to show ya just how much." He grinned as Ezra shivered and reluctantly moved from behind his lover's chair over to a CD player. He turned it on and music filled the dark office.
"What's this, Vin?"
Vin took Ezra's hands and pulled the undercover agent to his feet. "I heard this on the radio, and with the present you gave me, I thought it'd be perfect for when you came back."
When the words started, Ezra recognized the song and pulled Vin into his arms. He smiled and slowly began dancing Vin around the office, singing quietly.
Every time our eyes meet,
This feeling inside me
Is almost more than I can take.
Baby, when you touch me
I can feel how much you love me
And it just blows me away.
I've never been this close to anyone, or anything
I can hear your thoughts, I can see your dreams.
I don't know how you do what you do.
I'm so in love with you,
It just keeps getting better
I wanna spend the rest of my life
With you by my side, forever and ever
Every little thing that you do,
Baby, I'm amazed by you.Vin smiled and silenced Ezra's singing with a kiss. "You're pretty amazing yourself, Ez. Why didn't you tell me you could sing?"
Ezra never faltered as he swept Vin across the floor. "My voice was one of the only things I ever had that was mine alone, so I never felt quite right about sharing it. Until now."
Vin pressed another kiss to Ezra's lips and pulled him closer. "In that case, keep going. I love hearing you sing. I've been playing the CD every night to help me sleep."
Ezra resumed singing as he buried his nose in Vin's hair.
The smell of your skin,
The taste of your kiss
The way you whisper in the dark
Your hair all around me
Baby, you surround me,
Touch every place in my heart
Oh, it feels like the first time, every time
I wanna spend the whole night in your eyes.
I don't know how you do what you do.
I'm so in love with you,
It just keeps getting better
I wanna spend the rest of my life
With you by my side, forever and ever
Every little thing that you do,
Baby, I'm amazed by you.As the music faded, Ezra wrapped his arms around Vin, resting his head on his lover's shoulder. "This is the best welcome back that I have ever had. Thank you."
Vin smiled as he began kissing Ezra's exposed neck. "Nope, the best welcome is waiting till we get back home and you've rested a little. You're practically dead on your feet, Ez. I think you're gonna need a little more energy for the rest of your welcome."
Ezra shivered as Vin spoke. "Then, by all means, let us depart. I certainly don't want to keep you waiting any longer."
Vin placed one last chaste kiss on Ezra's lips before turning him towards the door. "Don't worry about that, Ez. I'd wait forever if I had to."
"You won't have to. I promise you, Vin."
