Author's Note: Alas, I have been meaning to work on this story but with gift-wrapping, baking, sending Christmas cards and wild parties (okay, so only one and it wasn't wild. Just dancing crazily in my living room) I haven't really had time to work on it. And seeing as Christmas is only eight days away, I'm going to try and get a chapter up every other day to compensate. Hope you love this story, and remember to review! (No flames please) Merry Christmas and Happy Hanukkah!
Prologue
"Deck the halls with boughs of holly, fa-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la…."
Ah, the Christmas season. Snow was falling, Santa Claus was on every corner, people were rushing to buy the perfect gift. The lab was decorated in garland, strung with lights and of course, Mistletoe. And it was none other than Don Flack who was rounding the corner to his desk, singing Christmas carols as he drank his coffee.
"Yo, Kelly.. Wanna keep it down?"
Flack, suddenly jarred from his happy mood, turned to give Danny Messer a small glare. How dare that.. Person insult his wonderful singing? His voice was music to most people's ears.
"Well, scrooge, wanna drop dead?" He snapped with a wave of his head as he smirked.
"I guess that answers my question.." Danny grimaced. The area was bustling and he was slammed into as he sat down at his desk, right across from Flack's. His desk was littered with papers, an empty coffee cup and a few Christmas cards. Kinda like Flack's. Flack dropped down in his seat and sighed.
"I love Christmas.."
Danny muttered something and looked up at Flack. "Ya goin' to the Christmas party, Flack-O?"
Flack took a moment to answer. He'd been flipping through some papers and had found an old case file that he took a moment to read. He finally looked up however and sighed. "Ah,.. I don't think so.."
Before Danny could ask why not, Mac Taylor and a girl entered the room and made their way towards the two. Flack's jaw dropped when he saw the girl, who smiled back at him. She was averaged size and height, with shoulder length red hair and cool green eyes. She had a badge on her belt and Mac smiled as he glanced from her to Danny and Flack.
"Don, Danny, this is the new girl in from Chicago, Detective Lilly Graham. Lilly, this is Detectives Don Flack and Danny Messer."
"How you doin'?" Danny smiled
Don just nodded, hurriedly turning away.
Mac continued. "Anyway, since this is a busy week, you'll have time to get to know each other at the Christmas party." Mac then left, taking Lilly with him to meet the others.
Don stared after them and turned to Danny. "I'm going to the Christmas party."
