It was a late night working session in the chemistry lab. The concept wasn't lost on Adam since it wasn't the first night he was up late in the lab working. Sleep didn't come easy to him, so might as well get a few more hours in.

He was walking down the hall. A simple thing really, he didn't expect anything to come out of walking down the damn hallway.

One second he was walking, the next he was being pushed against the wall, someone's lips all over his. Not just someone, the one person who had been yearning over for almost three years now.

The same person who put in their expired contacts on the floor of his lab's bathroom and had his eyes on for years. His heart ran fast, but he was still stoic and grumpy.

"Did you... Did you just kiss me?" Adam asked, a bit puzzled and out of breath.

"I'll just go back to my office and begin to work on my Title IX complaint... the federal law that protects against sexual misconduct within academic settings—" His voice went back to its dryness. Laconic.
