She was grateful they didn't seem to have an audience, while she wasn't worried or ashamed about what just happened, she honestly wouldn't know what to do if one of her colleagues had witnessed something... that felt very personal... by all rights WAS very personal.
It didn't seem like it was something she needed to worry about right now. Right now she could just enjoy this, being flustered and excited that the only one here right now, was Hayes. and after what she did to him, after everything he went thought, he was smiling again.
Watching the countdown as well, she tilted her head to the side when he spoke.
"Oh of course, always professional on duty." she said, as if there was absolutely no doubt on her mind.
It did remind her that the man who's hand was holding hers DID have an Elite uniform on. and was her direct superior, her boss.
Hayes, her boss, and what.. now someone she was going to be seeing? what would this be.
"So uh..." she started, glancing back at him "So what exactly would you call this then?" It seemed a little beyond what she understood as simple casual friendship they've seemed to have.

That was a good question.
Too early for lover, too much for just friend (maybe really good friend,) too involved for an understanding, and girlfriend.. would she want to apply that term?
"I dunno," he confessed. "Let's take our time and figure it out." A grin and a light shrug of his shoulders suggested he didn't find issue with this endeavor. "But for now-" he took her hands in both of his again, "-how about 'us?'"

Somehow, it made her feel better that he didn't seem to quite know either, and finding that the conclusion he did come to was much much better.
Faleen didn't know how this really worked, so she was happy to take a casual approach.
She chuckled lightly, her hand reaching up to tuck her hair behind her ear "I think that works very nicly."
The lift opened, and Faleen moved forward to step into it this time, instead of letting it close again, moving to the side to make sure that Hayes had enough space to get in and stand.
"Are you in for duty again tomorrow?" she asked, as the doors slid closed and the lift started up.

"Yeah." Hayes stepped into the elevator after her, looking her way as the doors closed on the small space. Enough of his brain function had returned to remind him 'hey, you're still in uniform and you hate high collars and hand coverings.' He pulled off his gloves and tucked them into his belt, then flexed his unencumbered fingers. Much better. "Did you want to do something?"

The movement drew her gaze down to his hands, watching as he took his gloves off, and put them out of the way in his belt.
the corners of her lips softened, it wasn't too often that Hayes was in full uniform. It was something she noticed, not if he could help it.
Faleen on the other hand, found she was more comfortable in hers, gloves included.
She tilted her head at his question, moving to fold her hands behind her back.
"Sure." She said after a moment's consideration, It wasn't unusual to be asked something like that, though it didn't often come from Hayes... well it didn't come very often anymore at all really. "Alright... I'm estimated to be off duty around eight tomorrow. Everything is running smoothly in Robotics, but I have some documents regarding our prisoner Julian to see to... shouldn't go past eight though."
She arched her eyebrows a bit, waiting to see if that would work.

"Julia- oh. Yeah." A cloud passed over Hayes' expression, but quickly moved on. "Yeah, eight. That works."
"There's still a bunch of episodes to finish," he suggested, though with the faintest trace of hesitation as he remembered the last outcome of that situation. Still, they'd talked, and things were.. different. Better. It wouldn't happen again this time. He smiled gently. "Or it's supposed to be a pretty nice night." It didn't really matter. The important thing was being with her.

A quick glance was shot up at the elite when he repeated the name, Faleen becoming aware that it linked to an event that much of the HQ was still sore about.
She saw the look on his face and her shoulders fell. She didn't add anything though.
"Well.. I guess we can decide tomorrow." the topic she chose to continue instead. "See how the day treats us first."
She wasn't at all opposed to the idea of watching more Transformon... despite her own regrets tied with them at the moment... it wouldn't have to happen again though, so there was that...
But Faleen did enjoy the night, as did her team... maybe that would be good for them too... maybe. She knew how her pokemon could be, especially Umbreon with Hayes.
She let out a little sigh at that thought, knowing something was going to have to be done about that, and soon.
But, as for the options, she found herself mostly indifferent, to occupied with feeling both nervous, and excited to spend time with him again.

"Don't worry about it," the blond assured, noting the slump of her frame. He added a light touch to her shoulder, letting his hand linger there, then let the conversation move on. "Deciding tomorrow sounds good."
Us.
Hard to believe just one word could sound so good.
