I looked up when i heard foot steps approach my desk. "Lil you did good today." Stillman said smiling. "No problem its my job" i said smiling my usual smile. "Without you that case would still be sitting on a shelf collecting dust" stillman said. "Thanks boss" i said still smiling. "Now go home and get some sleep" he said sounding stern before walking towards the elevator. I looked at the clock it was 8pm. I quickly glanced around to find the room empty. I am the only one in the office on this lovely tuesday night. I slowly returned to the paper work i was doing. After i finish this paper i planned on going home and spending the night curled up with my cats.

I finished going to the bathroom and zipped up my pants. I walked over to the sink. I turned on the cool water and began washing my hands. I watched the soapy water swirl down the drain. "Its been a long day" i said out loud to no one in particular. I shut off the water and dried my hands. I opened the door and walked toward the office. i stopped just before i was completely out in the open. I spotted lil. God she looked gorgeous. Her blonde hair in a pony tail and her icy blue eyes focused on a paper. I just want to push her on the desk and... get a grip valens shes your partner... shes lilly rush. I shook my head i cant have feelings for my partner or can i? i want to ask her out. Should i? I think i'm going to ask her. I took a deep breath and walked over to her. "Hey" i said nervously hoping she wouldnt notice.

I looked up surprised to find scotty standing there. "hey" i say smiling. God i feel like an idiot. Why does he always make me smile? i silently asked myself. Because you like him another part of me answered. No that cant be i said silently to myself. You do like him just face the facts rush i silently yelled at myself. i looked up again and my heart started pounding. I instantly felt my face become warmer. I really hoped scotty didnt notice. "You have any plans tonight rush?" Scotty asked breaking the steady stream of silence. "Not really" i answered shrugging my shoulders. I was trying to act like i didnt care on the outside, but on the inside i was giggled like a little school girl. "Want to go hang out at a bar... with me?" he asked nervously glancing around the empty squad room. I also looked around the room before answering "Sure"

I stood there looking at her with my mouth gaping open. "What?" she asked innocently. "Did... did you just agree to hang out with me?" I asked shocked. "Ummmm yeah" Lilly said as she started to blush with embarresment. I slowly let it sink in. Lilly rush the ice queen had agreed to go out with me no questions asked. This will be an unforgettable night. the night lilly rush said yes to hanging out. I snapped out of my thoughts quickly. "ok lil lets go" I said glancing at her knowing my face was redder than hers.

I quickly grabbed my coat and walked with scotty toward the elevator. "So.. no car today?" He asked after he noticed i didnt have my keys. "Nope i walked to work today" I said smiling at him. "We can take my car." Scotty said smiling. I looked down hiding my face from his eyes and smiled. I wondered if this could be the begining of something good and if scotty felt the same way about me. "So... where are we going?" I asked looking up into his gorgeous brown eyes.
20 minutes later...

I looked across the table to see lillys icy blue eyes staring back at me. We continued staring at each other in silence till a cocktail waitress came over. "hi i'm izzy welcome to tillys tavern. What may i get you two this evening?" izzy said a little too cheerful for this time of night. "i'll take a beer." i said slowly. "make that two" lilly said smiling. The waitress smiled and i couldnt help but notice how overly perky she was. Then I heard the waitress walk away, but i didnt look. I was too busy staring at lilly. God she was beautiful. I watched as she reached her hands up and took her hair down. It fell in soft, gorgeous locks around her face. It hit me then that she was even prettier with her hair down. I continued to stare as the waitress returned. "Here you go" She said happily giving them the beers. "Shes really overly cheerful" I said after izzy walked away. "She reminds me of a cheerleader on expresso" Lilly said laughing. I laughed and watched her face light up. When she stopped laughing i could still see the gleam in her eyes. "What?" She asked when she found me staring for the 5th time. "I like your hair down" i said smiling. I watched her smile back and lift her beer up to her soft pink lips. I began to drink mine too. Around 10 minutes later we were on our seconed beer. I was starting to feel the buzz circulating throughout my body.

I took another sip of my beer. This is the first time i'm really letting myself drink. Weeks ago i finally convinced myself that i'm not my alcholic mother and i never will be. She used to drink just to be numb, but i only drink when i'm with friends. I quickly shook off that thought thinking about her would only ruin my night. When i looked up at scotty i could feel the buzz. "So..." I said breaking the silence. I tried to think about what to say, but i couldnt. Its like my brain shut off. "So..." I said again this time i could hear myself slurring the words. "lil your drunk" Scotty slurred and laughed. "You are too scotty" I slurred right back. "We better go" He said standing up and putting money on the table. "Yeah we have work tomorrow" I said walking toward the exit with him. Within minutes we were climbing into his car.
