SHERIDAN WORKS AT THE YOUTH CENTER

Things are much better now that the venom is out of the Sheridan Luis relationship.  After finding out that Julian was the cause of all their misunderstanding , and considering their  meeting on the beach, and  dancing at the party was really fun, now they are more than civil to one another, and they are becoming friends.   

As the first  day of her 100 hours of service at the youth  center begins, Sheridan is looking for a place to put her things. Luis grabs the keys and opens  the coat closet.  She can't reach the top shelf to put her purse and other stuff in, so he comes in to help her, putting them both actually inside the coat closet.  Just then, Hank walks in looking for them.  He is there to help Luis and knows Sheridan will be there too.  He sees the door ajar and closes it which, of course, automatically locks them inside!  

They are now  smushed together, face to face, body to body, she in her silky tight  designer duds and he in his crisp white shirt and jeans. They start  shuffling and giggling, and Hank realizes immediately  what he has done, but the keys are inside with Luis!  Sheridan and Luis are laughing and struggling and right in each others faces.  Her soft velvety cheeks are smooth against his neck, and her hair is sweet smelling and soft against his chin. As she squirms around, he feels every curve of her well toned body.  He 's in heaven!  But now hank is rattling the door and swearing he'll take care of everything. .  Hank suggests Luis try to slide the key under the door.  Luis explains that the key has to be removed from the others on the ring, and Sheridan says she will help. She has to reach into his pocket and get the keys with their torsos flat against one another.  She's so nervous, knowing she has to get her hand in his tight pocket and make sure it's the keys she's grabbing and nothing else or she could really be in trouble and that she probably will be anyway at this point!  Her palms are damp, and she can hardly control her fingers in the cramped tight pocket space all the while wanting to furiously  run both her hands all over Luis'  hard body.   

The camera flashes between the groping and the  faces of the tormented twosome  glistening with perspiration.  She finally  accomplishes her delicate  task,  but not before so much touching and groping goes on that they are both hysterical with embarrassment and lust.  (Yes, it is called Passions!) She is the only one small enough to get down near the floor and get the key under the door, and since he is facing her she has to slide her face right down his front side. He is on the verge of exploding with desire!  The camera gets all this. As she is crouched down, her rear end is the only thing he can see poised nicely up at him in the half dark. His face is overcome with lust. 

When Hank finally gets the key and they come out, they all fake a nervous laugh.  Sheridan     .    brushes off deliberately avoiding looking at Luis , but she can feel his eyes all over her.  Luis  just stands there sweating , staring, remembering.  later that day, when he has to go in the closet to bring her her things, he flashes on it and smells her perfume filling the closet.  Tango music fills his head, and he goes back in  time to relive those precious moments. He thought about the closet, the dancing and the very first time he was lucky enough to accidentally kiss her and first smell her fragrant skin. Even blindfolded he knew she was special, that long smooth neck, that soft flaxen hair, the cheekbones of a Greek goddess.  How could he ever have resisted her beauty.  He was such a stubborn fool with her all those times.  Thank God she was the kind of woman who could understand him , and give him a second chance.         

 Sheridan comes to her senses and reaches to organize what she had originally wanted to put in the closet.  As he lends a hand she smiles and remarks, "That was a pretty close call officer"..  "You bet, little lady," he says. "They don't come much closer than that! . It's a good thing we got over some of our differences before that little incident.  I probably would have had a real harassment suit on my hands," he laughed.  "Well it all worked out" she smiled. "I "m starting to feel pretty secure when you're around'.   Then as she walked  away to start her day, Luis' eyes followed every step and, Hank  could only be a poor sport ," Now why couldn't it have been me in that closet with her. You know Luis, you should get another key made for that closet made as soon as possible.  Oh well, what difference does it make...  Before you know it you're gonna steal her away from me like you did all those other women aren't you sport?  That's the story of my life!" "(short story-ha ha) 

That night, as Luis steps from the shower, the camera shows him standing there in his towel, and as he picks up his clothes to put them in the hamper he is consumed  by the smell of perfume still clinging to what he had worn that day.  He flashes on Sheridan pressed up against him, He stands there in a trance with the clothes pressed to his face.  Again he's drunk with passion!   

The next day Sheridan brings in the tango music for Luis to share with the kids.  Hank tells her to check the pool because Luis is playing water polo with the little kids.  When she walks in, all the kids go wild, and Luis turns to see what the distraction is.  Just then he gets clobbered and hits his head, and as everyone watches, he lies there very still. He's  unconscious !  Like a bullet, Sheridan strips off her jacket and shoes and jumps in after him.  She gets  him off  to the side and  starts mouth to mouth.  Kids are screaming everywhere and one runs to get hank to call 911.  He hadn't noticed anything was wrong because the kids were always loud but he jumps into action and runs to the pool area just in time to see Luis regain consciousness face to face with Sheridan.  Her soft lips are just leaving his, and she gazes into his eyes, still  dripping from her swim session.  He smiles lovingly up at her and thanks her as all the kids hoot and holler, teasing them about the mouth to mouth encounter.  

Hank  and the paramedics arrive to see that all is well and congratulate Ms. Crane.  "Looks like you got some  gratitude to pay this little lady, officer Lopez-Fitzgerald,"  one guy says. Still lying near her,  Luis looks at Sheridan and says  softly, "It'll be my pleasure" as they stare into each others eyes..(.more tango music)...As she walks away in her soaking wet black capri pants and white shirt carrying her shoes , Luis' eyes are fixed on his angel.  Hank looks stupid and says," like i said, you're gonna do it to me again aren't you buddy!"  Luis grabs Hank's shoulder, and they leave the gym together watching Sheridan from behind. 

The next day Sheridan comes in to work wearing her tango outfit, ready for the dance lessons.  Hank and Luis look like their tongues are going to fall right  out . She is completely decked out in  pants and high heel boots, with lots of silver and very ornate buttons and trim completely covering a tight vest.  She tells them she brought gym clothes since she has now learned to dress casually, especially after the pool incident.   Just then  one of the teenaged girls asks whether the tango suit is a particular designer.  Sheridan  shyly admits that it's  a Paris original given to her by the  designer himself and that princess Di had one exactly like it .  She heads off to put her things away and get the kids signed up who want to participate in the tango lessons.  

 Luis and Hank comment when she leaves about how great she is with kids and how she seems so down to earth even though she is so rich.  Hank says it's amazing that she isn't married to some lucky guy with a bunch of good looking kids like her.  Luis agrees that the children would indeed be beautiful.  As he's staring off at Sheridan's  leaving the room with that look on his face, and Hank is standing there looking scared and apprehensive about his future with Sheridan,  one of the young boys tells Luis he's needed on the basketball court to fill in for somebody if possible.  Luis agrees, and Hank trots off to find Sheridan, hoping  to salvage any chance he may still have with her.  (Maybe he should consider shoe  lifts-ha ha).  

But Sheridan is already on her way to the basketball court, and when she walks in Luis is running. dribbling the ball and crashes   into her, falling right on top of her, wearing only his gym shorts and tennis shoes.  Something on her outfit gets snagged on his pants, and they are locked together  again, face to face on the floor. She tries to get up, but he tells her to be careful not to damage her outfit.   Just then, Hank walks in to see the whole thing.  He stands there taking it all in and looking really desperately depressed.   He can't believe the luck this guy has!  So there they lay, writhing, laughing and trying not to move so as not to tear anything but also trying to get out of what is obviously a very close, close encounter of the passionate kind! 

Hank leaves to get something to undo the snag and tells the kids to go clean up and quit gawking, and the kids leave too.  As  they lay there together face to face, Luis stretched out covering Sheridan with every inch of his masculine torso, they became silent and still.  He could feel her heart beat,     smell the perfume, the  fresh  clean hair, feel the velvet  skin, the tight curves. let's just say it was a very hard situation for him !  And Sheridan began to remember what it felt like to be in the arms of a man she desired.  It seemed so right.   She flashed for a moment on the man in her dream, the man who saved her from Jean- Luc, but she quickly pushed that out of her mind and focused on the specimen before her, the incredibly firm, hot, musky body of officer  Luis Lopez-Fitzgerald, the man she wanted to hold her like this forever.  As they locked in their famous gaze, the moment was ripe-they were already closer than most people would be for a simple kiss.  In fact, he had to pull back to face her, and just as he began to lower himself  gently onto her waiting lips ,Hank was back to help...perfect timing. 

 Hank couldn't help but notice what he had almost witnessed, but he tried to ignore  it as he  bent over to cut loose the tiny metal trim  entangled in Luis' police badge holder which Luis  had slipped into his pocket that morning. Hank hands it to him, and they both help Sheridan up.  "You guys are starting to make a habit out of this, ya know!" Hank complains.  But they both try to brush off, laugh a bit and decide to get ready for the tango lesson. 

 As Luis changes into his dance clothes, he notices the smell of Sheridan's perfume on his shorts as he reaches to put them in the overhead locker, and he can't help but linger with them near his face still dreaming of what happened and what nearly happened.  Hank walks in and sees this and knows it's all over for any chance he ever thought he had with Sheridan-he walks away towards Beth's coffee shop, not even letting Luis know he was there.  In the ladies locker room, Sheridan clutches the broken trim from her costume, and as she places it in the locker overhead she can't help but notice the smell of Luis on the arm of her shirt.  she pauses for a moment remembering how wonderful it felt to be with the man she now  knew   was the reason she had returned to Harmony...to be continued
