Obstacles

Ok here's more :)

The following couple of weeks was spent in similar fashion, sneaking out for late night rendezvous. Yelina felt like a teenager, and everything felt more exciting because of all the secrecy. The late nights began to take its toll and they both thought it good to slow things down. However hard they tried, they couldn’t, they were like an addictive drug for each other.

It was one of those late nights when circumstance forced a change. It was slightly past one in the morning and Horatio had just drove her home. Yelina was tired, but as always never regretted her time with Horatio. She noticed a dark figure moving from the corner of her eye, and when she focused her eyes in the darkness, realized the figure was headed for the back window. Ray Jr’s room. She instinctively reached for her gun, and remembered that she didn’t bring it with her. She turned, Horatio always packed a gun, but unfortunately he had already driven off. She toyed with the idea of calling it in when she realized she recognized the figure. It was Ray Jr.

Furious, Yelina hurried into the house to confront him. She tried the door to her son’s room. It was locked.

“Ray!”

No answer.

"Ray open up!”

Again no answer.

“Raymond, I know you’re still up, open the door!”

She heard Ray behind the door, and it opened slowly. Ray was clad only in a pair of sweat pants.

“Where have you been?” Yelina seethed.

“I was asleep.” Ray tried to sound sleepy.

“Raymond, don’t lie to me, where have you been?” Yelina thought it ironic that she had used that exact same line many times before with the boy’s father.

“I was sleeping in my room, Mom.”

“No, you weren’t” Yelina couldn’t stand that he could lie to her without bating an eyelid. “ I saw you come in the back window. Where have you been?”

Ray rolled his eyes at his mother. “I can do better than that. I’ll tell you where I’ve been, and I can even tell you where you’ve been!”

“What are you talking about?”

“I was out, with my friends.”

Was that cigarette smoke she smelled on him?

“You, were out, sneaking around with Uncle Horatio.”

Yelina was surprised. How did he know?

“That’s right, I know. You have been sneaking out at nights often with Uncle Horatio. Like mother like son huh?”

“This isn’t about me and your uncle, Ray.”

“It isn’t?” Ray’s voice dripped with sarcasm. Yelina grew angrier that he could be so insolent.

“That’s it Ray! You’re not stepping out of this house again, except to school or Grandma’s. I’m keeping a close eye on you.”

“Then I guess it’s no more late night sex with Uncle Horatio for you huh?”

Yelina’s hand moved faster than her brain. It was a knee-jerk reaction; she slapped Ray on the face. She immediately regretted that she hit him. The hurt in her son’s eyes were evident.

“How could you!” Ray screamed.

She thought he was referring to the fact that she hit him.

“How could you do this to Dad! It hasn't been a year since Dad died! And with Uncle Horatio?!”

“This is none of your business Ray.”

“Of course it’s my business! You’re sleeping around with my uncle and you don’t even have the decency to tell me.”

“Ray what I do with your uncle doesn’t affect, hasn’t affected you.”

“How would you know? Dad didn’t mean anything to you? Or to Uncle Horatio?”

This had escalated to a shouting match.

“Ray, don’t you dare!” She was enraged by his accusations.

“I hate you!” Ray yelled and slammed the door in her face.

Yelina wanted to scream. She knew Ray didn’t mean what he said but it had hurt. Not only had she to deal with him lying and sneaking out, she had to deal with explaining about her and Horatio.

Her first thought was to call Horatio. She checked the time. It was two in the morning. She realized that she had grown very dependant on him. Horatio needed his rest. She decided she would try getting some sleep. She would talk to him tomorrow.
 
I like to think Yelina and Horatio we're always open to Ray Jr. You have to admit they're really really close, so one wouldn't think they'd keep it a secret. H/Y both acted a little selfish this time around. I can't blame Ray for being mad at Yelina..

Great update :)
 
Thanks for the FB Tati, it's always great to know what people think after reading my fic. Anyway here's another short update:


Horatio stepped out of his Hummer the next morning. A new day, a new crime scene. He spotted Yelina not far from the dead body, talking to who he presumed was a witness. As he ducked under the yellow crime scene tape he noticed something was amiss. Yelina was trying not to show it, and to anyone else they wouldn't have noticed, but it didn't escape his eye. Something was bothering her. Was it the crime? Ray Jr? Something he did or said? Don't be over-sensitive!

He wanted to go towards her, talk to her, but they were keeping their relationship a secret, so it was business as usual. Horatio walked towards Alexx and went about their usual talk, COD, time of death, victim's identity.

The formalities out of the way, it was time to talk to the homicide detective. In this it was fortunate to be Yelina.

"Hey," Horatio said as he walked up to her slowly. He placed his hands on his hips.

"Hey," Yelina replied softly. She thanked the witness. She turned towards Horatio. No usual playful banter, no flirting. Something was certainly wrong.

"You ok?" Horatio asked, reaching out to quickly brush her upper arm.

Yelina shook her head. She wasn't ok, and this wasn't the time or place to talk about it.

Horatio slipped his sunglasses off his face, and pocketed it. He leaned towards her casually. "Talk later, at PD."

Yelina nodded than went about updating Horatio about their current case.

----------------------------------------------

Horatio made his way out back. It had become their secret meeting place for a quick kiss or stolen moment when they could. The narrow walkway behind the PD building. It wasn't a frequented place by CSI and police officers, and it provided the privacy they needed. He saw Yelina standing with her back against the wall. Her hands folded across her chest.

Horatio quickened his steps. He was concerned by the expression on her face. Yelina looked up, no smile on her face. His concern grew.

"Ray found out about us." Yelina blurted out even before Horatio reached her side.

"Ok." Horatio nodded. "I assume he didn't take it too well."

Yelina sighed. "No, he didn't. Last night, after you drove me home, I caught him sneaking in the back window. I went to confront him, that was when he said he knew about us. Apparently he saw us a couple of times."

"You want me to talk to him?"

"No. He's giving me the silent treatment." Her thoughts travelled back to this morning. Ray Jr refused to talk to her and was sullen the entire way to school. I slapped him in a fit of anger, he said some nasty things but I shouldn't have." The remorse in her voice was evident. "He thinks we're taking Ray's death too lightly, I was afraid he would think that way."

Yelina let out a breath. "You were right, we shouldn't have kept it from him."

"We still can make things right."

Yelina nodded. "I.... still can make things right. I realized we've been so caught up in ourselves, I neglected him. I thought I could smell cigarette smoke on him. He could be up to all sorts of trouble, I don't even know who he's hanging out with."

"Ok." Horatio nodded. "Perhaps we could talk to him together," he offered again. Ray had always been like a son to him, and what Yelina said, worried him as well.

"Horatio, I need to do this myself." Yelina said looking into his eyes. Since they had been together, his eyes no longer were filled with emptiness. She knew, she had a large part to play in it.

"We've been meaning to slow things down, maybe this is a good chance. I need to spend more time with my son." She hugged herself tightly.

Horatio sensed the hurt in her voice and he knew it pained her to tell him what she just said. He reached out to rub her arm. Slowly he pulled her into his embrace. She fit in his arms nicely.

He took in a breath, inhaling the scent of her. She burried her face in his chest.

"You're saying you want to cool things off?" Horatio asked softly, it hurt just to say those words and he missed her already.

Yelina lifted her head. "We can still make this work, we'll still try to see each other, just not so often."

"Ok." Horatio offered a smile. " But sweetheart, if you need my help - "

"I need to do this myself," she repeated. "But if I do need your help, I'll tell you."

Horatio nodded and he tipped her face upwards towards him with this finger. She snaked her arms round his neck. They kissed for the longest time, both aware that this could be their last kiss in awhile.

"We'd better go, people are going to miss us." Yelina said, pulling herself reluctantly from his embrace.

"Ladies first." Horatio took her hand and squeezed. "I love you."

"I know, I love you too." Yelina said as she reached up with her free hand to straighten his shirt collar. She then turned and made her way back into PD, her hand still in his.

He held on to her hand until it slipped from his grasp as she walked away. Horatio bowed his head and sighed.


More of your views please :) To be continued....
 
Maybe true but he should be a little more understanding anyway. The uncle part might make him go eww lol and I can see him not liking that part but as for the time period people grieve at different rates.
 
Great update, Hrockz.
Being against this is a normal teenage reaction, I guess. Good for Yelina to take some time for her son, maybe she'll find a way to make Ray understand this.

Oh, and a happy Mother's day, Hrockz! :)
 
Oh, and a happy Mother's day, Hrockz! :)

Thanks! It was a good day for me :) Got some time on my hands so here's the next instalment.


Horatio and Yelina saw less of each other now, as was previously agreed. They met only at work, and even then because of the department policy of not allowing co-workers to date, they had to keep their interactions purely professional. There was the occacional stolen moment behind PD or a quick lunch together while chasing a lead, but whatever time they had together it was a far cry from before when they could hardly take their hands off each other and were together almost every night.

Both still talked nightly over the phone but it wasn't the same as a physical presence. They missed each other deeply and it showed in each other's eyes. But both knew they had to act in the best interests of Ray Jr.

The homefront didn't get any better for Yelina. Ray was still mad at her and he showed it by keeping their conversations to a minimum. It had been almost two weeks since that night when she and Ray had their arguement.

She pulled up behind Horatio's Hummer. They had texted each other, arranging to meet at the beach that afternoon. Both had been working different cases for some time now, so a moment together was very welcome.

She saw Horatio climb out of the Hummer as she got out of her car. She immediately fell into his warm embrace. She had missed his hands on her tremendously.

"You have no idea, how much... I missed this." Horatio said into her hair, kissing the top of her head.

"I'm sorry." Yelina looked at him. "I really missed you too." She planted a quick kiss on his lips.

"Ray still mad at us?" Horatio asked the obvious. She had told him Ray still was over the phone the night before.

"Yeah." She sighed. "To make things worse, I think he's deliberately getting into trouble at school. That or he's mixing with the wrong company."

This was news to Horatio. As far as he knew, Ray's grades were slipping, that was all. They stood face-to-face, his arms round her hips, her arms round his neck.

"Any idea who he's hanging out with?"

"Some older boys. I know they skate together, they're probably trouble. Ray told me he doesn't smoke but the guys he hangs out with do, hence the smell on him."

"And you don't believe him?"

"I haven't caught him smoking, so I'll give him the benefit of the doubt."

Horatio nodded. He believed his nephew was a good kid at heart, just a little misguided.

"I just wish I could get through to him. At this rate, he's going to get into some serious trouble. I don't want him to end up in juve." Yelina sighed again. The issue weighed heavy on her mind.

"Time I stepped in?" Horatio had took her advice and kept his distance from Ray.

Yelina shook her head. "I need more time I guess. It takes awhile for him to simmer down.... like me."

"Don't I know it." Horatio cocked his head and smiled. Yelina gave a quiet laugh.

"I missed hearing you laugh, especially.... hearing you laugh in the dark." Horatio's eyes held a hint of mischief.

"I hope we can work things out soon. This really isn't the way I wanted our relationship to be." Yelina rubbed his chest.

"It'll get better." Horatio wanted to remain optimistic. "Give it a couple more days, if Ray doesn't change his mind.... or his ways... you might want to think about letting me talk to him."

"Ok." Her cellphone rang. They broke the embrace as she took the call. After a moment she snapped her phone close.

She let out a loud sigh. "That, was Ray's principal. He skipped school again." She was visibly upset. "I should've made sure he actually walked into class, rather than drop him off in front of school.

"You wanted to give him the benfit of the doubt."

Yelina smiled. "You're always so forgiving, even when I'm hard on myself."

"Want me to go look for him sweetheart?"

"He'll show up at home. I'll deal with him later."

"I'm uh.... I'm sorry. I have to go." He hated to leave her like that. "Eric's waiting for me back at the lab."

She gave him another kiss. "Go ahead. I'll be ok."

"Call me." Horatio said as he jumped back into the Hummer and drove back to CSI.

------------------------------------------

"Eric," Horatio greeted him as he walked into the layout room.

There were crime scene photos laid out on the table. It helped give them a bigger picture of the case.

Eric didn't return the greeting. Horatio thought he might not have heard him.

"Any leads?"

"You know H," Eric began, "you sure got over my sister real quick."

He knows! Horatio realized. He wondered who else knew. Perhaps Yelina and himself weren't so discreet as they thought they were.

"Eric, I - "

"I saw you and Yelina out back couple of days ago. You guys were.... " Eric shook his head and gave a bitter smile. ".... were pretty intimate."

"Eric, I loved Marisol." Horatio began. Just not the way he loved Yelina. He had always been in love with Yelina, even when he had thought he loved Marisol, Yelina had been in the back of his mind. But back then Yelina to him was a closed chapter, he didn't lead Marisol on. He genuinely believed he would never get a chance with Yelina again. How was he to explain all this to Eric. He knew how much he loved his sister.

"Yeah, I'm sure you did." Eric said. "She hasn't been gone a year, and you've re-lit an old flame. I warned her. I told her she was just a replacement for Yelina."

Eric shook his head. "She wouldn't believe me. Now she's dead, because of you!"

The guilt that Horatio felt over Marisol's death washed over him again. Yelina had been the very healing balm that he needed, but Eric's words opened old wounds. Horatio knew no words would suffice.

"Believe me Eric when I say I loved your sister. I wanted her to be happy. Whe she died, I grieved as much as you did."

"But Yelina came back." Eric pointed out. "And you forgot - "

"No, I didn't." Horatio cut him off. "I never led her on. I loved her, but Yelina...." Horatio lowered his voice. "Yelina, I've loved since the day I saw her. Thou shalt not covet your neighbour's wife.... I did one better. I wanted my brother's wife."

Horatio wasn't sure why he was opening up to Eric like that, but he felt he needed to explain his actions. "We didn't want it to happen this way. If you asked Yelina she'd wish my brother were alive, like I wish Marisol was. We didn't mean to fall in love, but we did. We fought it, Eric, fought it for years. Life's too short for us to fight it anymore."

Eric closed his eyes. Horatio's words made sense but he still felt like his sister had been wronged.

"She wasn't a replacement for Yelina. She snuck up on me, just when I thought my heart was dead." Horatio took a step towards Eric. "I know whatever I say isn't going to bring her back, maybe hitting me will make you feel better."

Eric laughed, then his fist connected with Horatio's cheek. He staggered back from the blow. The commotion made heads turn, Ryan rushed in and pulled Eric off just as he was about to land another punch.

"It's ok Mr Wolfe." Horatio said. "Gentlemen, let's get back to work."

Horatio slipped his sunglasses on his face and walked out of the lab.


Oppps... didn't know I wrote so much :lol: It just came to me and I had to write it. Hope you guys enjoyed it.... more to come.
 
MacsGirlMel aren't we impatient? :p

Anyways back to our story:

"I heard you got into it with Eric today." Yelina said over the phone with Horatio that night. She was laying in bed, staring at the ceiling.

"News travels fast." Horatio mused. He was standing at the window of his apartment which overlooked the city he had took an oath to protect.

"You ok?" She asked.

Horatio's hand instinctively reached to his cheek. A small bruise had formed. "I'm ok."

"How'd he find out?"

"He saw us out back at PD."

"You mean a couple of days ago?" Yelina asked. It meant Eric had seen them sharing a passionate kiss, their first in a long time.

"Yeah."

"I wonder who else knows." Yelina asked.

"I hope nobody else."

"Well, I'm sure Eric isn't going to get away with hitting his boss."

"I'm gonna let it slide. I told him to hit me." Horatio said as he stared out into the night.

"He was upset?"

"Reacted the same way Ray did."

Yelina fell silent.

"You still there?" Yelina heard his low voice across the line.

"Yeah." Yelina sighed. "It's just.... never easy when it comes to us."

"I'm.... I'm sorry, I never meant to make it hard on you." Horatio sounded like he was in pain.

"I know." Yelina smoothed the empty space next to her on the bed. "Wish you were here."

"So do I."

"I have to go, check on Ray." Yelina got up. "You get some sleep."

"I'll do that." Horatio's heart ached for her. She was his now. So why can't I have her?

"Love you. Good night."

Yelina flipped her phone shut then made her way across the hall to her son's room. She knocked on the door before entering. They had had another arguement about Ray skipping school and she wanted to try make peace with her son.

She opened the door just in time to see Ray look like he was about to make another late night escapade.

"Where do you think you're going?" Yelina hissed.

"Out." Ray muttered. "But I guess not anymore." He plopped himself onto his bed.

"After what I told you over dinner? And you're still trying to sneak out? What's gotten into you?" Yelina tried to control her rising anger.

"It's no big deal." Ray shrugged.

"If you keep this up, I'm going to take more drastic measures, maybe I'll lock up the windows in this house. It'll save you from yourself If you break the law, I can't help you."

"Whatever." Ray rolled his eyes.

"Don't you take that tone with me young man."

"You're just pissed cos you can't spend as much time with Uncle Horatio as you'd like. And it's my fault."

Yelina shook her head. "What have you got against your uncle and I?"

"I like you, and I like Uncle Horatio, just not together."

Yelina sighed. "We've been over this. I loved your father, but that was in the past. I love your Uncle now. I'm sure you've known for some time."

"Yeah but Dad just died! You guys act like he was nothing. You guys are betraying him!"

"You father did that to me... many times. And I put up with it. Now he's gone, why can't you let me be happy with the man I love for once?"

"It's all about you." Ray sulked.

Yelina's tone softened. "I'm trying Ray, to make things up to you. But everytime I try you push me away."

"Can't you and Uncle Horatio just call it quits?"

"We loved your father very much, but were not doing anything wrong. You can't run my life. And as long as you're staying in my house you'll do as I say."

"I can't help it." Ray raised his voice. "I just hate the thought that you'll just forget Dad like this."

Yelina knew her son was still hurting over the loss of his father. Perhaps it would be best if she broke up with Horatio for awhile. Don't give in to him!

"Take responsibility for your own actions. You're old enough. You're only using my relationship with your uncle as an excuse." Yelina raised her voice to match his. Both mother and son were equally stubborn, both refusing to give an inch.

"Fine!" Ray threw the covers over his head. Their conversation was over.

Yelina slammed the door shut. It was going to be another miserable night without Horatio, another miserable night fuming with anger, and wondering where she went wrong with Ray Jr.


TBC.....
 
All work and no play, makes Horatio an angry boy. By no play, it specifically meant no sex, and even more specifically, no sex with Yelina. The suspect in the interrogation room wasn’t helping his already foul mood either.

He had been arrested previously for rape, and after his parole was back to his old tricks. They had arrested him, and had sufficient evidence to put him away again. Horatio was trying to get a confession out of him. But the suspect seemed more interested in his partner, in this case who happened to be Yelina.

She had leaned towards the suspect, and in Horatio’s opinion was revealing a little too much of her cleavage to a known rapist. The suspect was dragging the interrogation, being dodgy on his answers for the sole purpose of ogling at Yelina. It had become that obvious. Why doesn’t she see it?

“So you wanna know what I did to those girls?” the suspect drawled. “Undo a couple more buttons on that shirt of yours and I’ll tell you every detail.” He licked his lips at Yelina.

Neurons in Horatio’s mind fired. He’s mentally undressing her! He lunged towards the suspect, grabbing him by the collar. Horatio drew his fist back, ready to land a punch. He felt Yelina’s hand on his arm, pulling him back.

“We’re done here.” Yelina signaled to the officer outside to take the suspect away. She waited for them to leave the room them let go of Horatio’s arm.

“Do you know what he was doing?” Horatio’s voice was calm but simmered with anger.

Yelina started for the door. “Come on.”

“Where’re we going?”

Yelina didn’t answer. “You coming? Takes two people for what I have in mind.”

Horatio complied. The anger was already subsiding. Yelina led him to the parking lot. She located his Hummer and climbed in the passenger side. Horatio got in.

“Where to?” Horatio asked as he started the engine.

“Drive.”

She’s so sexy when she’s commanding. Horatio nodded. He slipped on his sunglasses and they pulled out of PD.

A short time later they pulled up at a deserted corner of the beach. Yelina got out and stood, her back against the Hummer. Horatio made his way next to her. She spoke.

“You may not believe this, but this isn’t the first time I had a man look at me that way…. you included.”

Horatio’s face turned red. He had no problems believing other men would be very attracted to her. She was a very pretty woman.

“I can take care of myself…..” Yelina continued. “But it’s sweet you get jealous.”

“You’re not mad?”

“I spent so much time being mad lately… mostly at Ray, I’m just tired of being angry. Tired of trying to reason with him.” Yelina didn’t answer his question. It didn’t matter. She turned to look at him. The sea breeze played with her hair, tossing it here and there. “You’ve been pretty wound up lately too.”

“Yeah, I have.” No need for pretending, she could see right through him anyway.

“Want some release?”

Horatio blinked.

“I know I need some.” Yelina smiled.

It's such a turn on when she wants me. Horatio returned the smile. He could now relax, and to think he thought she had brought him here to tell him how wrong it was to attack a suspect like that.

She removed the sunglasses from his face. The bruise that Eric gave him was still visible. She reached for his jacket, then slipped his precious sunglasses into the inside pocket. Slowly she slipped the jacket off him. He wanted her, she could see it in his eyes. She started to undo the buttons on her shirt, and watched as Horatio’s eyes burned into her, traveling up and down her body.

He kissed her hard, pushing her body back against the Hummer. He slipped a hand under her unbuttoned shirt, caressing her side, then moving it upwards to a part of her anatomy, the suspect was openly staring at just now. As they continued kissing a small moan escaped from her lips.

“I think…. we should…. continue this…… in the back of the Hummer.” His breath came out in gasps.

“I don’t know….. given all that….. expensive equipment…..” she was equally breathless.

“You’re forgetting, I’m the head of the crime lab?” He smiled. He took her hand, then opened the door to the back seat of the Hummer.

They climbed in to continue what they started, and found the release they both needed.

------------------------------------------

Back in the lab, Horatio was in a better mood. He exited the elevator, and saw Eric walking towrds him.

Horatio took a breath. Things were going to get worse again.
 
Hihi what an intro to this latest update! Can I just say I love those little inner thoughts of H? Whoehoe having fun in the hummer
 
Glad you guys liked the action in the Hummer.:)


“Eric,” Horatio stopped in his tracks, and waited for Eric to approach him.

“H,” Eric returned the greeting. “Listen, about the other day…. I was wrong to hit you.”

Horatio nodded. “No worries.”

“Your private life's none of my business.” Eric began.

“I understand you’re still upset about your sister, so am I. It’s just that – “

“H, you don’t need to explain,” Eric said. “You and Yelina had a thing for each other for so long, it was inevitable anyway.”

“I’m glad you understand.” Horatio offered a small smile. This wasn’t turning out to be such a bad day afterall.

“I’ll take any disciplinary action you think is necessary.”

“None needed.” Horatio replied. “I provoked you to hitting me anyway.”

“Thanks.” Eric turned to leave. “Oh and, you were right, hitting you helped me feel better.

Horatio smiled to himself.

The rest of the day passed without event, and his romp in the backseat of the Hummer with Yelina earlier really helped.

Horatio was about to conclude that it had bee a good day at work when Rick Stetler came knocking on this office door. He was never the bearer of good news.

“What do you want Rick?” Horatio swiveled in his chair to face the IAB agent.

“I know about you and Yelina.” Rick had a smug look on his face.

“What about?” Horatio feigned ignorance.

“Come off it Horatio, you know what I’m talking about. You didn’t get the memo about no dating your co-workers?”

Busted. How did he know? He hoped he hadn’t gotten Yelina in trouble.

“I’m not dating Yelina.” Horatio stated plainly.

Rick laughed. “Yes you are. Someone ratted you guys out. I didn’t believe it at first but I saw you two together.”

Who? When? Not in the Hummer?! Horatio kept a straight face.

“Pity they didn’t have that policy in place when you were seeing her.” Horatio growled.

“Lucky me.” Rick smirked. “Break up with her, before I have to resort to suspending one of you. Or maybe I should suspend you both. I know you don’t care about yourself, but spare a thought for her.”

Rick left. Horatio waited for him to disappear from view before collapsing back into his chair. He felt defeated. For once he had no solution to a problem. They weren’t seeing each other as much as they liked now, but the thought of breaking up with Yelina brought only pain to him. He tried to think of the consequences. He could pretend to have broken up with her, but he knew Rick wouldn’t buy it. If they didn’t even sneak around during work, they’d never get anytime together given the situation with Ray at home.

Maybe they could try being more discreet. That wouldn’t work we’re already as discreet as we can and still people find out. He tried to figure out who ratted them out. Eric was the first person that came to mind, but Horatio knew Eric wouldn’t do that. Or would he?

Horatio knew Rick had the power to transfer Yelina to another department so that they wouldn’t work together ever again. Or worse, get the Chief to condemn her to paperwork only. He knew she’d hate that. IAB had the power to do a lot of unpleasant things to her, and Horatio didn’t have the heart to let her go through that. There seemed only one course of action left, and Horatio didn’t like it.

He would have to talk to Yelina about it.

TBC...
 
So one of them should just change shifts so they aren't coworkers...I'd say it's worth it to avoid breaking up.
