Flip, being a seasoned police detective, is a very hard man to scare. You're always trying to jumpscare him, but it never works, and it frustrates the hell out of you because he's constantly jumpscaring you. You just wanna get him really good one time, really scare him, and you've finally come up with the perfect plan to do it.
When you told Ron your idea, he was immediately eager to help you out, agreeing to do whatever needed to scare the living daylights out of Flip.
So when Flip calls and tells you he's on his way home, you quickly get your lingerie on and do your hair and makeup all nice. You really need to have Flip completely focused on you and get his guard down so Ron can do his thing.
You're buzzing with excitement as you head downstairs in your pretty set, one of his favorites, and make a quick call to Ron to confirm the plan. Then, you settle on the couch and put yourself on display as best you can while you wait for Flip to come home.
"Princess? I'm home!" he calls through the house as he normally does, pulling off his boots and putting out his cigarette in the ashtray by the door. "Baby, where--"
He turns the corner and finds you on the couch, all laid out in one of his favorite lingerie sets. He hums, pausing and leaning against the archway of the living room.
"What's all this for?"
"What, can't a lady dress up for her handsome, hardworking man every once and a while? Keep things spicy?"
Flip chuckles and walks over to you. "Hey, I never said I was complaining. Just didn't know if we were supposed to be celebrating anything, maybe one of those bullshit holidays we always use as an excuse to have sex, like fuckin' national laugh day or whatever."
"Oh my god," you chuckle. "We should really stop doing that, we really don't need any more excuses to have sex."
"Mm, you have a point," Flip hums, smiling as he pulls you to your feet and kisses you deeply. "But you have to admit, we've had some, mm, pretty great holiday celebrations."
You smile against his lips, nodding. "Yeah, we have."
Meanwhile, outside, Ron pulls into the driveway with his headlights off and takes it slow, not wanting to alert his partner to his arrival. He grabs his cuffs and sneaks around to one of the living room windows, staying low as he taps the metal cuff against the window.
Flip's head turns immediately in the direction of the sound, eyebrows furrowed.
"Did you hear that?"
You look up at him, pretending to be confused.
"Hear what, baby?"
"There was a tapping noise."
"I didn't hear it," you say, turning his head back to you and kissing him again. "It was probably just the icebox again, you know how it makes those weird sounds sometimes."
Flip's instincts were telling him there's something going on, but he chooses to ignore them in favor of kissing you some more. He hums, hands on your hips, squeezing them firmly.
"You look so beautiful, princess," he says against your lips, pushing you gently back down onto the couch. "I--"
Ron scratches along the window with his nails and Flip's head whips over again, walking towards the window.
"What the fuck is going on?" he says, looking through the window. "I swear to god someone's outside tapping the window. You're not hearing it?"
"No, baby, I have no idea what you're talking about. I didn't hear anything."
He huffs, then walks back over to you and lays down on top of you, kissing you again as he presses himself against you.
Ron grins and moves to the other window, then knocks quickly, squatting down in the darkness to hide in case Flip looks out the window.
"Alright now, this is getting fucking ridiculous. Either I'm crazy or you're going deaf, because that was very noticeable."
Flip huffs, making a move to get off you and walk over to the window. You hold his shirt and keep him on you, kissing his neck.
"Baby, don't get up again. It's okay, it's probably one of the neighborhood cats. I need you, Flip, please stay here..."
His jaw clenches, but he starts kissing you again. You left the back screen open for Ron so he can enter quietly, and you subtly keep a lookout for him as Flip starts to nibble at your neck.
Ron comes around the corner and you hum, smiling softly and winking at him. He grins, standing in silence for a moment before making his presence known by using his deep, serious shouting voice.
"ZIMMERMAN!"
Flip startles and tries to turn around but falls off the couch with a soft grunt. You burst into laughter and Ron joins in as Flip processes what just happened.
"What the fuck?!"
"Oh my god, that was amazing," you breathe, laughing hysterically. "We got you so good."
You give Ron a high five as Flip stands back up with a huff, crossing his arms.
"You guys fucking suck," he says bitterly. "Why would you do that?"
"Revenge, of course. You're always scaring me but I can never scare you. So I wanted to get you back for all those times."
“Well this was so much worse than anything I’ve ever done to you,” he says. “We were about to…that was just mean.”
You can tell that he’s actually getting upset over this, and you quickly wrap up the conversation with Ron. He can sense it too and heads out after a few more minutes, leaving you and Flip alone.
He walks over and grabs a beer from the fridge, opens it up, then takes a long sip. You sigh, getting up from the couch and walking to him, wrapping your arms around him from behind as he lights a cigarette.
“Baby, it was a little prank. Just for a little fun.”
“It wasn’t fun for me. I actually thought something was going on outside and I was getting worried. And the fact that you got all dressed up just to scare me…it was just shitty.”
You step around and give him a kiss on the cheek, then another, and another.
“Flip, baby, I’m sorry,” you say, pouting. “Please forgive me.”
He huffs. “I’m not happy with you right now.”
Your lips continue to press kisses all over his face, jaw and neck.
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry…” you say with each peck. “I’m really sorry, baby.”
As much as he’s upset, your kisses and apologies are definitely chipping away at his hardened defenses.
His hand slips onto the small of your back but he still doesn’t look at you, hoping you’ll keep going but understand that he’s really not that upset without him having to say it.
You definitely understand it, and you smile slightly, but continue to kiss him until you finally press a kiss to his lips.
“Please forgive me?”
He looks at you, then, and smiles ever so slightly as he holds you close.
“You’re not gonna quit, are you?”
You shake your head with a smile, kissing him some more. "Nope, not until you forgive me."
"Alright, alright," Flip sighs, running his hand down to give your ass a firm squeeze. He smiles, then kisses you. "You're lucky I love you so damn much."
