Section 5 �
�Hit him and kiss
him�
(Megan POV, Colby, David � They discuss Don after the
baseball game.)
[Takes place during Looking for Love, Part 18]

Megan knew she had a grin on her face but she couldn�t help
it.� �Guys!� she called to David and
Colby and waved them over.� They�d been
sitting in the stands, eating popcorn, and making snide comments about the game.� Charlie would have been plastered to Colby�s
side but he had an evening class.� Alan
had been sitting next to Colby but was going now in the other direction.� Megan wondered if Alan had seen the same
thing that she had, but then again, Alan hadn�t been able to observe Don close
up in the dugout.

�What�s up?�� David
asked.� �I was making headway with the
girlfriend of the DEA third baseman.�

�Good thing I stopped you,� Megan laughed.� �We don�t want interdepartmental tension.�

David shrugged but didn�t look too disappointed.

�What are you grinning at?� Colby said, eyeing Megan.

�Just a speculation, but pretty grounded in evidence I
think,� she said.� �Come on, you can buy
me a beer.�

Colby and David looked at each other then back at Megan, but
she just waved for them to go ahead.� She
was enjoying her idea too much to share it quite yet.

As they drove to the bar where the FBI team was gathering,
David hassled Megan about her catching technique,
which mostly involved making fun of the protective gear she had to wear.� Megan tossed back zingers about David sitting
on his ass in the stands while real agents protected the FBI�s reputation.

At the bar, Megan waited for her promised beer before she�d
say anything more.� David went to get the
beers and Colby looked around.�

�Hey, where�s Don?��
Colby said.� �Gotta
congratulate him for that catch.�

Megan�s grin grew wider and Colby eyed her.� �What do you know?� he asked suspiciously.

David set the beers down on the table and Megan took a long
drink of hers.� Catching was thirsty
work.� Not to mention that her knees
would be aching tomorrow.
�So,� Megan said, putting down her glass and commanding the
attention of the other two agents.� �What
did you guys think about the second inning?�

David frowned, trying to remember.� �You mean when Don got thrown out at third
base?�

�Yes, and before that?�

�Don stole second,� Colby said.

�And before that?�

Colby and David looked annoyed but Colby said, �The pitcher
lost the ball and nearly hit Don.�

�And then Don nearly flattened the pitcher with his return
hit,� Megan finished.

�True,� David said, �What are you driving at?�

�Well, keep that in mind while I tell you about Don in the
dugout for the first inning.�� Picking up
her glass, Megan sat back in her chair and smiled at the memory of Don�s
expression.� �Don was watching the
pitcher, Will Stevens, the whole time.�

�So, that doesn�t�� Colby started.

�He couldn�t take his eyes off of him. He was watching him
like a man crawling through the desert who sees a
fountain of water and wants it to be real but fears it�s a mirage.�

�Huh?� David said.

Megan smiled.� �I
asked him if he knew the guy and he said he�d met him once.� I said that it must have been some meeting,
since it looked like he couldn�t decide whether to hit or kiss him.� Then check this out, Don actually blushed.�

�Blushed?�� Colby
laughed.� �Don?�

�Yeah, he said, is it that obvious, and I said only if you
have eyes, and he said I�ll try to be less obvious and I said that him being so
obvious was adorable.�

�Adorable,� David repeated.

�Then he walked away from me and grabbed his bat.�� During the later innings Megan had also noticed
that Don was having serious trouble not getting aroused.� She would keep that to herself.� Was fun
to watch though.

�Huh,� Colby said, �So Don�s lusting after some guy.� A good sign after all he�s been through but
not enough to get all excited about.�

�I lusted after that pitcher too,� David added.� �He�s fine.�

�Yeah, I�ll admit that I did too,� Megan grinned. ��But
with Don it wasn�t just admiration, it was � a sort of desperate hunger.��

Colby rolled his eyes.�
�Are you sure you aren�t exaggerating?�

�Remember all that stuff that happened in the second
inning?�� Megan said triumphantly.� �If that wasn�t the mating dance of two alpha
males, I don�t know what would be.�

David and Colby stared at her then broke out laughing.

�You know,� Colby said. �You might be right.�

�Way too many years of psych training says I�m right,� Megan
replied.� �But here�s the kicker.� I was talking with one of the DEA players in
the locker room and managed to work the conversation around to where the DEA
did a major drug raid four months ago.�

David frowned in incomprehension but Colby sat up
straight.� �You�re kidding ��

�Nope,� Megan said with satisfaction.� �Four months ago the DEA broke up a drug ring
based at a local BDSM club.�

David blinked.� �Not The Chamber ��

�Yup.�

�But �� Colby said.�
�How did this Stevens guy � Don didn�t get caught!�

�I don�t know exactly how it happened,� Megan shrugged.� �But I think it�s pretty darn likely that
Will Stevens was the unknown friend who helped Don when Channing hurt him.�

David and Colby nodded slowly.�

�I wonder,� David said, his face
growing grave.� �If
that DEA raid may have even interrupted Channing.�

Megan pursed her lips.�
�I wondered that too.�

�Interrupted�� Colby said,
alarmed.� �You mean that if there hadn�t
been a DEA raid then Don might have ��

�Died there,� David finished.� �What a horrible end for him.�

A moment of grim silence then Megan shook off the mood and
put a smile on her face.� �Well, the raid
did happen and Don did make it out of there and everything worked out okay.�

Colby and David were still frowning.

�And the best thing,� Megan said cheerfully, �is that Don
left after the game with Will.�

�Oh?�� Colby said, his
face brightening.� �You saw them leaving
together?�

�More like Will driving his car and Don following behind in
his car, but definitely going to the same place.�

David smiled slowly.�
�Don is getting himself some of that?�

Megan laughed.� �Hopefully.� Though from Don�s face at the game, they hadn�t seen each other for
months.� Probably
some sort of ridiculous male pride thing.� Don would not have liked anyone seeing him
that low.�

�But it sounds like Don got over it,� Colby grinned.

�Wouldn�t you know it,� Megan said with an exaggerated
sigh.� �All the good men are taken or gay
�� She eyed Colby.� �Or
both.�

Colby and David laughed.�

Megan pursed her lips.�
�Colby, you can�t tell Charlie anything about this.� It�s just a guess and even if it�s true, let
Don be the one to tell his family.�

Colby nodded.

David lifted his beer glass.�
�To gorgeous DEA pitchers.�

Colby lifted his glass.�
�To blushing FBI first basemen.�

Grinning, Megan lifted her glass and said, �To Don getting
himself some of that.�

They clinked glasses and drank.
