"Two more Tequila shots." Rita said having downed two already. The bartender had just returned with her drinks when she felt her presence behind her. "No. You can not buy me a drink, I already have one." She said rolling her eyes. She hated being hit on. "Good evening to you too, Counselor." Fin said. She turned around her eyes wide and her face turning a light crimson shade. He sat down next to her and she turned back to her drinks. She downed her shots quickly and turned back to the man sitting next to her. "You look a little dressed up to be sitting in a bar like this." Fin said looking at woman in front of him. She looked at him with a smirk, it was playful and a little flirtatious, but hey she was a little tipsy. "I was at a very antagonizing, boring event that my firm hosted. Kissing ass for 3 hours, is not exactly fun." She said as she cocked her head to the side. Fin chuckled and nodded in agreement.
"Would you two like anything else?" The bartender asked. Rita turned away from Fin. "Ah, yes. I'll have a Martini with a twist." Rita said. "And i'll have a glass of Bourbon." Fin said still staring at the woman in front of him. "I'm here because I need to unwind from the stressful evening I had, but why are you here dete-oh that's right. Sergeant." Rita said swirling her olive in her drink. Fin took a sip of his drink before looking back at Rita. "Let's just say I should never take dating advice fromLiv again." He said. Rita tried to suppress her amusement, but did not succeed because she stifled a chuckle. She shook her head apologizing while trying to stop laughing. "Go ahead laugh at my pain." Fin teased. Rita bit the olives off her little black straw and smirked at him. "So, you took dating advice from a woman that hasn't had a stable relationship and is currently denying feelings she has for a certain ADA. How did you pass the Sergeants Exam?" Rita asked once she was finished with her olive. "Oh, you picked up on that too? I thought I was the only one." Fin said ignoring her snide question.
Rita had downed her drink and Fin did the same. "I think I should get going." Rita said standing and putting her jacket on. "Let me make sure you get home safely." Fin said standing and throwing money out for both of their drinks. Rita smiled. "I don't that's a good idea Sergeant." Rita said. "Call me Fin, and I wouldn't be able to forgive myself if something happened to you." Fin said. Rita thought for a second before nodding in agreement. So they headed outside and Rita got into his car.
Back at Rita's apartment Fin stopped the Car and got out. He opened Rita's door and helped her out. Rita started to walk into her building, but stopped. She bit her lip as her stomach fluttered and her brain fogged. She quickly walked back to the car that waited patiently for her to go in. "Umm would you like to come up?" Rita asked, you could see the blush on her face from the moon. "Sure." Fin said getting of his car and walking in with Rita by his side. Once they were in her apartment Rita threw her keys and purse onto her coffee table. "Welcome to my humble abode." Rita said with a little bow. Fin smiled as he took in the scenery and it wasn't her apartment. It was her. Rita kicked of her heels and placed them in her room.
She came back to the front room with Fin sitting on her couch. She smiled and joined him, sitting with her arm resting on top of the couch. "So?" She asked raising and eyebrow. "So?" He mimicked. "Who are you?" Rita asked. "Excuse me?" Fin asked confused. Rita rolled her eyes. "Who is Odafin Tutuola? I know nothing about you, tell me something about you." Rita said. Fin nodded. "You already know my job, which isn't that pleasant and keeps me busy." Rita nodded. "So, are you divorced or separated?" Rita asked. Fin chuckled. "What it's a legitimate question." Rita said. "Yes, I am divorced and I do have a son. I'm actually a grandfather." Fin says proudly. "Oh, wow." Rita says clearly not expecting that. "Yea. What about you?" Fin asks. "Uh, much to my mothers disappointment I do not have any kids, nor have I ever been married." Rita says. "It's never to late, just look at Liv." Fin says trying to lighten her mood.
Rita moves a little closer to Fin. "You see I've thought about adopting, but I don't wanna ruin a kid. I'm not exactly a warm and loving person. I think I would make a terrible mother." Rita said looking down at her hands.Fin lifted her chin up with his finger and said "I think you'd make a great mother." Rita breathed out, Fin could smell the olives on her breathe and it was very intoxicating. Rita raised her handplaced her palm on his cheek, pulling him closer until they're lips are almost touching. She rubs her thumb gently on his cheek before brushing her lips against his and engulfing him into a very passionate kiss. Fin quickly joined into the kiss slowly grazing and pulling on her bottom lip. Enticing a small moan from her as she started to lay back and her hands looped around his neck as they kissed. They stayed like this for what seems like forever before pulling away for air. As Fin get off of her she slowly sits up. She straightens up her dress and clears her throat. "Do you wanna just watch a movie or something?" Rita asks breathes. Fin nods. She grabs her remote and cuts the TV on laying on her head in Fins lap.
Two hours later and a very bad chick flick Rita was fast asleep. Fin looked down at her and smiled caressing her cheek. He then picks her up and holds her close to his chest. She stirs a bit but settles into his arms. He places her in her bed under the covers and place a kiss on her forehead and taking in the scent of her hair, before he leaves. He only hopes that this won't be the last time he see's this side of Rita. He smiles as he locks her door and shuts it.
Rita woke up in her bed with no memory of how she got there, but she remembered the moments leading up to it. She smiled to herself.She slowly got of bed and went to her closet to pickto something to wear for todays activity. Settling on a beige dress suit with matching heels she walked into the bathroom to take her shower. When she walked out in her robe and her hair in atowel something on her nightstand caught her eye. She picked up a business card from the 'Special Victims Unit' with Fin's name and number. She turned it over where it read "Call me sometime." She smiled, not smirked she smiled and held the card close to her heart.
