"Flattery like that will keep me from wanting you on your backside too."
Julia chuckled as she brought her arms around his shoulders and kissed his
cheek before admitting "The only time I was ever even thinking of knocking
you on your backside, husband of mine, was when you were going for Sloan's
idea.

"Other than that," she gently kissed his ear and whispered "I actually
enjoyed our debates to a point.  You made me think and I got you to see some
things too.  Admit it, Derek.  They were heated but they challenged too."

"And I never," she gently teased his earlobe and smiled before speaking and
going back to it "ever, wanted to seriously knock you on your backside."

Julia moved her hands to rub the back of his neck before admitting with a
quiet chuckle "Except that once.  But you made up for it pretty well."

"That was a once in a life time occurance.  I seriously doubt you will ever
need to worry about it happening again.  However," he said smiling broadly
and slipping out of the chair and turning towards her.  "I shall remember
that flattery turns your head the next time you are shouting at me."
