Don came back to reality when the music stopped. " Oh, Nuala . I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to be so forward. Please forgive me. " Don walked back to their table with Nuala and helped her with her seat. Then he sat across from her still feeling bad about what he had done.
By that time their dinner had come. All Don wanted to do was to eat and take Nuala home and go hide in a dark corner somewhere. "The challange sounds good to me. oh so now you are Masc;s best detective." Don teased. "I guess this challenge will prove who is once and for all. Don was always open to some friendly competition.

"Don," Nuala said, stopping him for a moment. "I need to move on eventually, and I couldn't think of a better person to move on with than you." She rested her hand on his arm. "It's just I'm going to need a little more time." She told him, giving him a reassuring smile.
She let him lead her back to the table where dinner was waiting. Sitting down, she looked up at him. "A little friendly competition is something I love." She said, picking up her fork. "I'm sure there's room at the top for two number one detectives." She suggested, even though she was looking forward to their challenge.

Don listened to what Nuala told him. "I understand. I will be here when you are ready. I look forward to some friendly competition as well. "
Don continued to eat his meal. Looking down at his plate and playing with his food more then eating it. "Would you like some more wine?I guess I'm not as hungery as I thought." Don began to wonder if working under cover with Nuala was a good idea after all. They would be working close. Maybe another detective could be her pimp.

Nuala watched Don play with his food. Putting down her fork, she extended her glass for him to refill. "Don, don't beat yourself up over the kiss." She said, reaching out to touch his hand. "If it makes you feel any better, I did like it." She smiled sheepishly.
"I couldn't ask for someone better to be with." She said, rubbing her thumb against his hand. "And I look forward to that challenge. It'll be good to get some exercise."

Don smiled. "I just feel like a fool. I've just been alone for too long. Thank you. I enjoy being with you too. " Don started to eat his dinner and drink the wine. The evening was rapidly coming to an end. Don could feel the effects of the long day.
"So we can talk to Mac in the morning about going under cover. I hope at least we can get some evidence on whoever is commiting these murders.

"You're a handsome fool then." Nuala smiled, glad to see him a little happier. "Well, you're not alone anymore. Just not in a committed relationship either..." she furrowed her eyebrows, not completely sure how to categorize their new relationship.
The shift in conversation to work made her take another sip of her drink. "Yeah, we'll talk to Mac tomorrow, pitch the idea and see what he thinks. I don't think he's going to have much of a problem with it."

Don smiled as he looked up at Nuala. "Nuala, I really didn't mean for the evening to go down the way it did. I hope that we can still be friends. " Don was a sensitive guy. He wore his feelings on his sleeve most of the time. And sometimes that got him in trouble with the ladies.
"I think our relationship can be called a definite friendship. " Don continued to eat his meal. I don't think Mac will have a problem with our idea either. He likes input from his detectives. And I know he is getting heat from O'Shay to get this perp off the streets as soon as possible.

"Don, I've had the best night of my life since everything's happened." Nuala confessed. She was tired of staying her apartment, crying til there were no more tears to cry. She was laughing, having a good time, enjoying herself.
"Friendship with the potential of more." She stated, hoping that it would cheer him up a little. It was true though, once she was good and ready to settle down with someone. Raising her glass in a salute, she nodded her head. "Then here's to a hopeful new lead within the case with undercover."

Don smiled. "I had the best nightthatI have had in a long time too, Nuala. " Don raised his glass as they toasted the undercover job and their friendship.
"I want you to wear a wire. I know Mac will agree with me. They can insert a receiver under your skin. Nobody will know it's there but I can hear everything that goes on. And a small amp in your ear that you can hear me talk to you. "
Don poured both of them another glass of wine. " Would you like to order some desert? "

"So long as we're in agreement about that." Nuala chuckled, clinking her glass against his. Smiling brightly, she took another sip of her wine.
"Of course, wires are standard in this sort of thing. I wouldn't do this without one." She nodded, listening to Flack's provisions to the undercover task. "Don, I've gone through training. I know how to go undercover." She chuckled. "Although the idea of a mic inserted under the skin, kinda gives me the willies."
"So long as it's chocolate and something we can share."

Don smiled. "See you have been gone so long I forgot about all of your training. Oh, to make t hings even more interesting. How about adding the shooting range to our challenge?"
Don always prefered red wine with dinner. He chuckled when Nuala wanted things to be chocolate. "I will talk to Mac and see it he can arrange a chocolate wire. Don didn't want to speak out of place again, but he thought how nice it would be to share anything and everythiong with Nuala.
"You'll do fine, Nuala. It's the newest technology. It's keeps the perp from detectingthat you are wired. Would you like some more wine?" Don asked.

"Ooo, I've been meaning to hit the shooting range lately. Consider it added." Nuala smirked, finishing her glass of wine. "It should prove to be interesting to see who the better shot is."
Chuckling at the idea of a chocolate wire, she shook her head. "I don't think a chocolate wire would work so well. It would get all melty and then I'd get messy and just not pretty all around."
Smiling, she offered her glass to Don. "Couldn't we just put it in a bracelet or something?" She really wasn't sure about having something implanted under her skin. Shaking it off, she looked at her glass. "Are you trying to get my drunk Don? Because I think it's working..." She gave a small laugh, not sure why she was liking the idea of being tipsy.

Don smiled. " I agree. It is added. I guess it would be a bit messy. But you would look beautiful anyway. " Don agreed with the possibility of putting the transmitterin a bracelet. " We will have to run that by Mac in the morning.I just don't want you getting caught wearing a wire by the perp.
" Now Nuala, would I do something like that? I think it's about time that I took you home. We both have a long day tomorrow. " Don really didn't wantthe evening to end. It had really been wonderful.

Blushing for what seemed like the hundredth time today, Nuala looked down at her glass. "I understand you don't want me to get caught. I don't want to get caught either, but like I said, the under skin thing... Weird."
She looked up at Don and cocked her head to the side. "Wining and dining me..." She smiled, her head spinning a little. "Take me home? Would you be sweet enough to do that?"

Don looked into Nuala's eyes. "I don't blame you. Under the skin does seem a bit weird. You know that if I didn't look out for you , Oliver would have my ass one way or the other. " Don missed his friend more then he had realized.
"Yes I am glad that I got a chance to wine and dine you tonight, even if it didn't start out that way. Of course , I will be honored to take you home. "Don stood up and walked over and helped Nuala with her chair. He offered her his arm. " I hope you don't mind a cab home. It is too late and too far to walk you home.
