Title: Awakening Embraced
Pairing: Betty/Daniel
Rating: PG
Word Count: 365 words
Summary: A late night at the office.
Betty watched Daniel through the window in her own personal “Daniel-bowl.” He was hunched over a pile of papers with the same frown that had been etched on his beautiful face for weeks. Daniel had been at it nonstop since lunch and that was hours ago.
They were the only two left on their floor. Rising from her seat, Betty walked into Daniel’s office. He didn’t notice Betty walk into the room until she touched him. Betty stood behind Daniel placing her hands on his shoulders, feeling him jump at her touch.
“Sorry,” she murmured.
“It’s okay, Betty. Just didn’t hear you come in.”
When he didn’t turn around, Betty spun him around to face her.
“Betty, I’m busy,” Daniel snapped.
Betty didn’t say anything, she just folded her arms across her chest and watched Daniel. Dropping his chin to his chest, he could feel her eyes on him. Betty wasn’t the problem, she had only touched him and he had snapped at her. He felt like an ass for his actions.
“I’m sorry, Betty.”
Looking up at Betty they locked eyes, “I didn’t mean to snap at you. I’m sorry.”
This time she would let it slide because she knew it was not intentional and he had been pushing himself so hard. Reaching out Betty ran her palm over his head. Letting out a shaky breath, he didn’t realize he was holding. Daniel pulled Betty to him by her waist, placing his head just below her breasts. Betty held him close, a hand in his hair and the other rubbed his back. Daniel knew that Betty would have been justified in walking away but he was more than relieved when he felt Betty touch him. She did her best to soothe Daniel.
Lifting his head he pulled Betty onto his lap, resting his head on her shoulder. She rested her head atop Daniel’s pressing a kiss to his crown.
“I love you,” she stated as she played with the hairs at the nape of his neck.
Daniel placed a hand on the back of Betty’s neck pulling her lips to his for a soft, slow kiss.
“I love you too, Betty. Let’s go home.”
