"You leave them open," Ty inforirl"

Zane huffed This was one of the proble to learn to live with each other without significant personal injury, that didn"t necessarily carry over to their sparring sessions "I didn"t cover once today," he asserted "Backed off, hell yes Covered, no"

Ty glanced over his bare shoulder and smirked "Granted," he allowed "Think I should shower before McCoy hands us our asses, or should I go in srandly as he opened up his locker and tossed his sweaty T-shirt into his gyainst the first answer that came to mind as he deliberately looked his lover up and down, and he spent a few seconds revising what he could say without risking another smack upside the head "I don"t believe McCoy would appreciate your…

expression of „victory"" McCoy wouldn"t appreciate Ty"s finely tuned musculature or his ass either, but Zane was ling rabbed for his shower caddy and a towel, and with one last smirk and wink at Zane, he headed for the showers

Zane spared a moment to wish the locker room weren"t so busy this afternoon He"d reached a point where Ty"s attitude and cockiness were ers of Ty"s playful good h, passionate sex

Zane decided he"d wait to shower until Ty was done He could only deal with so much bodily temptation in one day

THEY sat at McCoy"s conference table, behaving theured Dan McCoy knew hi a read on Zane, though, just like everyone else in the Baltined to Baltimore for a feeeks now Ty was at home Zane was still an unknown to h about their past escapades

McCoy knew enough to know they were up to no good, anyway

"I hope you got it out of your systems," McCoy finally said to the on a demonstration," Ty explained easily

"Zane calls it „How to Get Your Ass Kicked" It goes over real ith the rookies," he drawled, overly pleased with hi cool and comfortable in his well-fitted suit He had a shtly at his partner

"Shut up, Grady," McCoy requested flatly

"Right," Ty muttered He shifted in his seat and leaned forward

"You said you had an assign over the "getting up to speed" deskwork they"d been doing the last three weeks Despite one blip up in the ht weeks of Ty"s life had been god-awful boring Even Zane couldn"t keep Ty"s wavering attention for very long unless he had so or he began to go stir crazy

McCoy"s lips curved into a slow, slightly malicious smile "I do,"

he answered "Corbin and Del Porter," he said as he retrieved a file

"Who?" Ty asked, unimpressed

McCoy smiled and reached to the htly and pushed a button, causing a se cruise ship appeared on the screen bolted to the wall

"Oh shit," Ty found hi before he could stop himself

"This," McCoy continued as if he hadn"t heard Ty, "is the Queen of the Mediterranean," he told theers at the ship "It is currently docked in Balti for a fifteen-day cruise to the Caribbean"

"You"re notclose to panic

Zane"s chin snapped up in alarreed not to even think that word, much less say it"

"Corbin and Del Porter," McCoy said loudly to curtail any more conversation, "were supposed to be on that ship toh on these two to detain them" He slid a file toward Ty and leaned back in his seat with a grin "There"s a laundry list of no-nos we can pin on theh What ant fro concrete on a few of their contacts"

Ty scratched his head absently as he looked over the file The two h-dollar thefts: art, antiquities, rare gems All stuff that was hard to steal and harder to fence It was difficult to tell whether they were collectors or middlemen, but either way, if the FBI leaned on them, it could produce a lot of inforh-end thieves and dealers

But Ty and Zane weren"t leaners They didn"t interrogate suspects eren"t part of their own investigations They didn"t know anything about this case and would be lost if they were asked to do the interrogation Inforlanced to his side, where Zane shrugged one shoulder, having obviously come to the same conclusion

"I"m not sure I understand e"re here," Ty said in confusion as he gestured between hi down at the file

"You are here because you two roughly match the physical description of the two rin

Ty looked up at hi hiood news for Ty or Zane Zane leaned forward in his seat, frowning, though he didn"t speak up

"We look like thereed "Salared at the ," he said slowly "You want us to assuonna work?" he asked
