Chapter One: I Have Work To Do
"Damm it all! I'm late again!" thought Ema as she ran down the street, her lab coat fluttering behind her. People in the street stared at her as she ran thinking she was some kind of nut case.
"Please don't let them have started without me, If I miss another meeting, I'm finished!" she thought running through the doors of the precinct entrance and rushing up the stairs to the meeting room. She burst through the doors and cried out "Sorry I'm late; my alarm clock didn't go off" she said using the classic excuse. However instead of being met by the eyes of the other detectives she only saw one pair and they were the pair of, who else but, Prosecutor Gavin.
"Isn't there a meeting on today?" she said looking at him. "Oh god , don't tell me I missed it" she thought.
"Detective Fraulein , have you forgotten? I believe the meeting you are referring to was last week and you were late for that as well, Ja?" he said smiling at her. She then actually took a good look around and noticed she'd burst in on one of his Band meetings, with his band and crew. Why the hell he held his band meetings at the precinct she'd never know, but right now she'd turned a bright shade of red.
"Oh right, Umm sorry for interrupting Mr Gavin" she said and quickly slipped out the door. Ema frowned and she walked over to her desk. She slumped down and put her arms on the desk with her head in them. She had succeeded in making herself look like a total fool in front of Mr big shot rock star again. They were inside probably having a good laugh right now.
"Laugh it up rock star, because as soon as there's a spot in forensics, I'm outta here!" she thought to herself. She sat up and she fixed her ponytail a little, it had gotten messed up because of her run to the precinct. She sighed a little and she pulled a case file out, one she was currently working on and began to read it through.
"Victim: Nick Stuttles, former Blue Corp Rep
Suspect: Kara Wilson, was found at the scene of the crime in hysterics, rumored to the victims lover."
Ema sighed and she pulled out a bag of snakoos and began too much on them as she read through the rest of the case file. It seemed like a pretty open and shut case, later she'd head down to forensics and get the autopsy report.She wheel her chair around and was just about to get up when she was met with the smiling face of prosecutor Gavin.
"Ahh!!" she cried jumping out of her chair. The files went everywhere and she frowned and began to pick them up.
"Now, Now Fraulein Detective, you've seen the screaming girls that follow me around, I hadn't expected you to be one of them" he said smirking a little.
"I assure you I am not, now if you'll excuse me, I have some work to do" she said and she stomped of angrily. He'd made a fool out of her AGAIN! That was twice in one day. She walked down to forensics department munching loudly and yelled at the reception at the front angrily, venting some of her bad mood. The man scurried of to get the files she wanted while she waited outside munching on her snakoos angrily.
"Now, Now Fraulein, was that really necessary?" asked a voice behind her. She turned around and she sighed.
"What is it now Mr Gavin, I have work to do you know" she said munching on her snakoos.
"Yes , I'm quite aware of that Fraulein, the only reason I came over before was to ask you something, but you seemed to be angry and stomped off before I could" he said smiling.
"Oh , well what is it?" she asked looking at him, remembering the way he'd shocked her.
He seemed to step a little closer to her and he said "I was wondering if you would be able to give up one night of your time to come out to dinner with me tonight" he said calmly.
Ema was shocked and she gagged almost bringing up the snackoos she'd been eating.
He chuckled and said "Just the reaction I had been waiting for" he said smiling at her.
"Huh? I'm sorry Mr Gavin, but I have work-"
"Oh detective Skye, you and I both know that right now we only have one case, and it's only small, you'll probably have it finished by the end of the day"
"But...I " she really didn't know what to say. How the hell did he know her work schedule anyway?
"So then I'll pick you up at 7" he then leaned in close, his mouth next to her ear, all Ema could focus on was the glimmering chain necklace around his neck.
"and fraulien, wear something nice all right" he said in a low tone.
He then turned and waved and said "See you later, Fraulein" he said and waving out the door.
Ema was blushing deeply and soon her embarrassment turned into anger. She began to munch on her snackoos loudly again .
As soon as the little man came back she snatched the files from his hands and walked up the stairs again. She frowned, how the hell had she been sucked into this? She walked back to her desk and began to finish her work off, after all, she now had a dinner date with the glimmerous, irritating Prosecuter Gavin. It was just how she wanted to spend her Friday night.
