Hi Sorry it's been a while since Ive posted anything, did anyone play Buried Secrets, Buried Lives On Demand? It was sooo good I loved it Mal in his boxer briefs hehe (Instant Blush :D) Can I just say that I think Natara's father is awesome, he's so cool and he wants Mal to be Natara too which makes me like him even more! So I decided that I would wrire a short story with Mal and Raj, I'll post my update to Where it takes Us later today in the mean time I hope you like this! :)

Mal sits on his couch, watching a football game, and drinking an ice cold beer, when suddenly his cell phone starts to buzz, he leans over to the coffee table to pick it up and answer it.

Mal:"Hello?"

Raj:"Hello, Detective Fallon, It's Raj Mansingh, Natara's Father, I need you to come to the San Francisco Bay Hotel, it's urgent!"

Mal:"Let me guess, you have more assassins trying to kill you and your in need of assistance again?

Raj lets out a deep chuckle.

Raj:"Heaven's No, I'm calling because I need your help with a family matter.."

Mal:"No disrespect sir, but if it's a family matter, why are you calling me?"

Raj:"Might I suggest, that you stop asking quetsions and just get down here so I can explain!"

Mal:"Okay I'll be there in ten."

Mal puts the phone down and makes his way to the hotel, when he arrives the manager escorts him to a balcony deck facing the occean, where Raj stands over looking the view with a glass of scotch in his hand, he turns to Mal and smiles.

Raj:"Ahhh Mr Fallon, Welcome, Thank you for coming, may I offer you a drink?"

Mal nods and a waiter pours Mal his own glass of scotch and passes it to Mal, Raj sits on a finely made wooden bench and gestures for Mal to sit opposite him, which Mal does so.

Raj:"Now I know your wondering why I asked you to come here."

Mal:"Indeed I am sir."

Raj:"As You know I care a great deal about my daughter and want nothing more than her absolute happiness and the reason I asked to see you is because I have reason to believe that you care for my daughter in a somewhat romanitc way.."

Mal:"What would make you think that sir?"

Raj:"Well as I said before you talk about my daughter in very glowing terms and in a way that suggests that you care for her as more than a friend, am I correct?"

Mal sighs and look down.

Mal:"Yes sir, it's true, but I just don't care for her..."

Raj:"No?"

Mal:"No, I'm-I'm deeply in love with her, I always have been."

Raj:"That's a very brave thing to admit Mr Fallon, but are aware that Natara is engaged?"

Mal:"Yes sir I am."

Raj:"And how did you react to the news?"

Mal:"I told her that I support her one hunderd percent, if she's happy, I'm happy."

Raj:"Hmmm I have a lot of respect for you Mr Fallon, I have never met anyone who cares as much for my Natara as much as you do, your a good man."

Mal:"Thank you sir."

Raj:"I only wish she's was marrying you instead of that fruity DA."

Mal:"You don't like Oscar?"

Raj:"Ive only met him once or twice, though I don't care for him if I'm honest, there's just something about him I don't like, the way he treats his elders, he's big-headed and really got under my skin."

Mal:"Yeah that sounds like Oscar alright!"

Raj smiles in amusement.

Raj:"The reason I asked to see you is because as you know the wedding is in two days, and although I want nothing more than Natara's happiness, I certainly do NOT want her marrying that man!"

Mal:"So what does this have to do with me?"

Raj:"Well as you know Natara is very stubborn and if I tell her how I feel she's likely to dig her heels in even more on the subject so..."

Mal:"Wait, you want me to talk to her?"

Raj:"On the contrary Mr Fallon, I want you to help me stop the wedding!"

More to come in Chapter two, please review! Jade :)
