"So where did you two meet?" Mrs. Martinez asked; cracking a smile. "Work, actually," Henry replied. "Oh, do you work for the NYPD as well?" she questioned. "I assist them.. I'm a medical examiner," he explained. "Oh. A doctor," Mrs. Martinez grinned. "Your mother thinks I'm a real doctor," Henry quietly teased; referring back to an earlier conversation. They heard a ding, and Mrs. Martinez got up. "I'll be right back," she announced; strolling into the kitchen. "Is this your childhood home?" Henry wondered. "Yep. Pretty nice aside from the dead bolt on the door," she chuckled. He bit his lip; suppressing a grin, and eyed her up and down lovingly. "What?" she chuckled. "My apologies..You just look gorgeous tonight," he whispered; planting a sweet kiss on her cheek. "Thank you," she smiled. He brushed her hair aside; trailing kisses down her neck, and she loosened up; forgetting where she was. She sprawled out across the couch, and grabbed his scarf; pulling him down on top of her. "Jo, we're.." he began. She cut him off; flipping them over and kissed him hungrily. "Ohhh..hhh," he moaned; resting his hands on her hips as she started to grind. -They were getting frisky with Jo's mother in the other room; crossing quite a few lines. "This is an incredibly inappropriate time and setting.. For this," he chuckled; breaking away momentarily. "Sorry.. Sometimes you just..Flip a switch.. I guess.. In my brain, and.." she panted; blushing slightly. "I'm so horny. Maybe it's the pregnancy hormones.. I don't know. I just really want you," she admitted; practically purring. He peered at the lust in her eyes and grew harder. Their lips collided; Mrs. Martinez hearing their moans of satisfaction in the other room. She walked out and saw her daughter and her boyfriend making out like horny teenagers on her couch, and cleared her throat. Jo jerked her head in her mom's direction, and turned bright red; getting off of Henry. "Sorry," she muttered; peering down at her feet. "Dinner is done," she announced.

"Will Mr. Martinez be joining us?" Henry asked; folding his hands in his lap. "He's in jail," she replied bluntly. "Oh.. I'm sorry.. I didn't know," he responded. "It's alright," she said. "What was that out there?..I sure hope you two are using protection. Wow," she chuckled; making Jo blush. "About that.." Jo started. "We um.. Forgot to.. A lot," she admitted. "Wait.. Are you..?" Mrs. Martinez began. Jo nodded her head; grinning, and her mother squealed. "Isn't there something else you'd like to tell her?" Henry asked. Jo bit her lip and flashed her mom her engagement band. She covered her mouth, and Henry grinned wildly. "I've heard a lot about you. I know you both will be great together," Mrs. Martinez spoke. "A lot?" Henry smirked. "Yeah. For months now," she replied. He arched an eyebrow at Jo and she smiled sheepishly. "Mom, I think I'm in love with a guy who cuts dead people open. Mom, he has the hottest accent. Mom, he has the cutest smirk," Her mom carried on; referring back to earlier conversations. Jo turned bright red, and Henry patted her back. "How long ago did she say those things?" He grinned; teasing her. "A few months back," she answered. "We've only been dating for about a month. You just told him how bad I was crushing on him," Jo explained. "Oh. Dios mío. Sorry," Mrs. Martinez chuckled. He smiled smugly at his fiancée, and she shoved him playfully. "Don't flatter yourself," she joked. "You think my accent is hot?" He grinned. "Honey.. Anyone with ears.." Mrs. Martinez began. "Mom," Jo scolded jokingly. "What part of the UK are you from?" her mother asked. "London, originally," he said; pecking Jo on the cheek. "How old are you?" she questioned. "35," he lied. "Wow, a younger man," she smiled; nudging Jo. "What else did Jo say about me?" he grinned. "How smart you are..How nice your aftershave smells.. So on," she replied. "Mommm," Jo complained. "Oh, hush Honey. He knows you're into him by now..You're getting married," she responded.

"It was nice meeting you Dr. Morgan," Mrs. Martinez spoke; following them out to their car. "The pleasure was all mine," Henry smiled; bending down and planting a kiss on her hand. She turned bright red, and Jo grinned. "My residence tonight?" he asked as they drove away. "Sure," she said.
-----------------------------------------------------
As soon as they got through the shop door, Jo was removing her clothes; dragging Henry upstairs. "Thank you. You more than got my mom's approval," she announced; shoving him down on the couch.
