Ok. this is my first fanfic so please read and comment. Even negative comments are welcomed. I suck at summaries so just read. Also I DO NOT own any of the characters from Lie To Me. although I wished that I did.

Maybe you didn't try hard enough?

Chapter 1

Cal was in his office working on his book, but he wasn't getting much work done. He was having a hard time concentrating. He has had a hard time concentrating for the last two weeks. All he could think about is what Gillian said to him on that last case they worked on together. He kept replaying the video of Gillian's undercover date in his mind. She said I had an amazing, funny, interesting mind. Then to top it off the way she looked at me and told me that I didn't try hard enough when she was on the rebound. Is she trying to tell me something? Cal was so deep in thought that he didn't hear his office door open. I was Gillian. She just stood there and watched him for a few seconds. Cal. When she called out his name it startled him so much that he almost fell out of his chair.

Bloody hell woman, don't sneak up on me like that. You scared the hell out of me. Gillian giggled and asked, How is the book coming along? Gillian walked across the room and sat down in a chair across the desk. Cal closed his laptop and just stared at her. She held his gaze for a while. Then she gave him a look as if she was asking him if he was gonna answer her question.

I am at a stand still, thanks to you. I haven't gotten anything done in the last two weeks.

Cal, how is that my fault?

He gave her a devilish look and after a few moments Cal got up out of his chair, walked around the desk and sat on the corner. A mir foot from Gillian. He looked at her straight in the eye and said I can't get what you said out of my head. You know, how maybe I didn't try hard enough. Gillian's face started to blush a bit. Did you mean that? Are you telling me that I have a chance? With you? She shot Cal a look as if to say; if you think you can handle this. Gillian stood up and walked out of Cal's office.
