Just a little idea i came up with whilst trying to get to sleep... A little bit of Major Crimes silliness... more chapters to follow!
"Damn it!" her voice echoed down the hallway as she started pulling shoes from the wardrobe, "the one time I actually want to wear these damn shoes and I can't fit one of them" the sound of items being tossed around inside the closest could be heard from the hall, as Rusty continued to pace up and down. He stopped for a moment to see if she was in fact ready to leave, only to watch her continue digging through the very bottom of shoe rack, looking for the missing shoe.
"What are you doing Sharon?" the young mans voice startled her from the hallway "before you get lost, we have to go!"
"Found it!" her voice punctured by excitement, pulling a pair of Marc Jacobs blue t-bar wedge heels from the vast wardrobe. She had chosen a fitted denim skirt which landed just on the knee, with a cream cotton top and punctuated by a cherry red scarf. Slipping on the heels she made one last look at her appearance, smoothing down the material she was very pleased with what she saw: a fitted look, neat yet casual and relaxed.
"Sharon lets GO!" the young teen repeated once more, clearly growing more impatient by the minute. She was unsure why he was so excited to be tagging along; after all she had been dragging him along all week, spending hours upon hours with the Major Crimes team and he had complained throughout it all.
"Yes time master!" as she looked at him from the reflection in the mirror, spinning on her heels to face him, a puzzled look crossed her face, "Why are you even excited? You'll just be spending more time with people from the place you had been complaining about all week."
Her voice questioning him as her hands made their way to the usual Raydor pose.
"I haven't been to a ranch before… besides Lt. Provenza told me yesterday Lt. Flynn has a fear of horses…something to do with a clown and a horse, or a horse dressed like a clown?" a smile hitting his lips as he let out a hard laugh.
"Really?...Lt. Flynn….. Interesting…" a light laugh exiting her throat as she put a hand across her mouth pretending that she shouldn't be laughing, "I will need to see that!".
Assistant Chief Taylor had insisted, no, ordered the team of Major Crimes to undertake a weekend of team building. After Provenza's initial tantrum over not being made 'Chief', Sykes's need to please everyone and Andy's inability to bid by the rules it was decided the team needed to spend sometime getting to know one another on a personal level and built working relationships. Provenza had grumbled that he didn't see why he needed to attend, which only illustrated further why he would be there whilst Flynn questioned how Sykes had managed to be excused from the outing.
Located 5 hours out of Los Angeles and sitting on a 100 acre patch of land, the ranch offered 4 guest bedrooms; meaning everyone would need to bunk together; each room offering two queen sized beds and ensuite. It had been decided Rusty & Buzz, Provenza & Flynn and Tao & Sanchez would share rooms whilst Sharon had one to herself. Being Captain and the only female had it's advantages … unfortunately this wouldn't go to plan … and a certain Captain and another certain Lieutenant would end up sleeping together …. In the same room but sleeping for how long?
