Derek put her down gently on their bed and kissed her
forehead.  As he
headed back downstairs he considered asking Jonathan
to guard the door, but
decided not to press his luck for one day.  He walked
past Sloan and headed
towards the sitting room, opening the door and
entering.

Sloan was about to say something glibe about the
fellow Precept's try at ignoring him when a small red
light blinked nearby but out of sight for people that
weren't aware of the security system.  He reached out
and stopped Derek before he could go any futher with a
slight nod at the light and looked at the other man
that had already spotted him and bowed in greeting.

Keeping his tone casual but being alert beneath the
calm exterior he asked the man "You wouldn't by any
chance be hiding a weapon anywhere on you, would you? 
Our security system doesn't seem to like you too
much."

He would leave it up to Derek as to whether security
would be called or not.
