Anon prompt: If you're taking prompts can you write Elaine meeting Holly?
"Holly? Holly Stewart?" Superintendent Peck called.
Holly was hunched over the desk going over the results with Nick and Chloe but straightened and looked around as she heard her name.
"Elaine!" she quickly moved to greet her.
"Look at you." The older woman hold the brunette in front of her, hands on Holly's arms after they hugged. "You've gotten even more beautiful."
The doctor blushed. "Thank you."
"How are you? And what are you doing here? Troubles?"
"Good, pretty good." Holly nodded with a smile. " And no, no troubles. Work."
"Work?" Elaine repeated. "You work here?"
"Well, not here, but—"
"How long?" The only answer was a sheep smile. "It was Gail, wasn't it?" the woman sighed exasperated but a small smile was tugging at her lips. "I don't know what to do with that girl."
"Yeah, me neither." Holly agreed.
"What's going on? Oh damn!" Gail swore seeing what her colleagues were watching. "It was fun until it lasted." She muttered resigned.
"What's going on?" Steve repeated Gail's own question as he joined them. "What is this?"
"It's my 'out of jail' card. At least once mom will forgive me for keeping it from her."
"What?"
.
"You must come by, Sunday. Bill will be happy to see you again. You can talk about your sporty stuff."
"Then maybe Sunday it's not the best day." Holly smiled. "There is the match, you know…"
"I think he might have mentioned something, but you know how little it does interest me." Elaine rolled her eyes. "Why don't you come watching it? You can yell at the screen together and we'll eat something. Maybe I could make that thing you always liked…"
"God, I missed it. Nobody does it as good as yours." Holly swallowed as if she could taste it.
"Then it's settled. Come around when you want. You know where the house is, and anyway Gail has the keys." Elaine kissed her cheek. "Take care."
"Did mom just offered to cook?"
"Sorry Steve, you just lost the favorite child spot." Gail chuckled, patting her brother's arm.
