Mac gathered everyone around in his office to meet the latest member. Everyone looked upon the woman. She stood at five nine more leg then anything. She was thin with high cheekbones, silvery gray eyes, smooth skin, and brown long brown hair. "Everyone this is Imogene Bennet. She's transferring here from central PA." Mac said. Imogene waved to everyone.

"Imogene that's a name I've never heard." Danny said. Imogene smiled. "It's Shakespeare. His play 'Cumbeline' my parents were in it together my mother played the Princess Imogen translates to Imogene and it means "maiden"." Imogene smiled. "I'm Danny by the way." Danny offered his hand.

"I'm Lindsey. So where will you be working?" Lindsey asked. "I get the bodies and the lab. I love looking at samples. Maybe every now and again I'll be out in the field collecting samples. What I did back in PA. I can't wait to get my hands back to work." Imogene clapped her hands together. "Good cause we have case. Body found in a warehouse with the hands cut off, teeth gone, and all hair shaved off the body." Mac said getting off the phone.

"All the hair?" Flack's face took on a confused look. "All the hair." Mac said. "Oh I love a good challenge. When do we leave?" Imogene asked. "You're not leaving today your staying here the body with be here soon. For now you get to hang out with Sheldon and Sid." Mac said. Imogene frowned. This was no fun at all. She loved crime scenes. Loved breaking them down and finding evidence.

"I'm Sid. And this is Sheldon. You can come help us with the body we need to finish. I was about to dump the stomach contents when Mac called us in." Sid was aged man with gray hair and thin. Sheldon was a dark skinned man. His hair was close cut and his brown eyes could make anyone want them. "I can live with that." Imogene smiled.

Imogene had been working there now for four and half months. She had gotten to know every member of the team. She enjoyed her job and was happy with it. The days were long but she enjoyed them. She had moved up to New York with her boyfriend of two years. They shared an apartment seven blocks from his workplace and twelve from hers. Imogene enjoyed her new life. The cases and bodies she got in were always welcomed unless she wanted to get home to Kevin.

He had a habit now of waiting up for her till she got home but it proved no good. She would come hoe and find him fast asleep on the couch. Or have to leave him in the middle of the night because of an emergency. But this was her life and a crime scene investigator. Imogene had just finished an eighteen-hour shift and was ready to go home. Ready to take a hot bath so she and Kevin could curl up in bed together and sleep in the next day because they had Saturdays off.

Imogene hadn't told Kevin she'd be coming home early and bought them a special treat. Imogene heard moaning from the bedroom and her heart was already sinking. Pushing open the door to their bedroom Imogene saw Kevin and the girl from across the hall wrapped in each other's arms. Kevin and the girl looked at her. "Baby your-"

"Finish that sentence and I'll shoot you in face. Get the hell out of here. You and that bitch." Imogene growled. She locked herself in the bathroom and cried silently on the toilet as they left. Whatever phone calls came in she ignored. She couldn't work in her current state she knew she would breakdown of she did. The apartment was a complete mess by the following morning. Imogene had spent the night throwing Kevin's things in the trash and in the hallway.

"What the hell?" Flack looked at the mess that was the apartment. Four beers littered the coffee table. Imogene had a deep-set expression that the vibe in the room had changed. She leaned on the arm of the couch one arm thrown over the back of it her left leg extended before her and the other on the floor. Another beer in her hand. Imogene looked no better her hair was a mussed from the constant scratching and finger combing she had been doing.

"What happened here?" Flack asked. Mac had sent him to check on Imogene. Everyone had called her a number of times yet no answer. It worried everyone to the point Mac finally gave in and sent someone. "Leave." Imogene all but yelled. Flack ventured further looking about the apartment. "We've been calling you and getting worried." Flack could see the tear stains on her face. Eyes no longer puffy but bloodshot. Flack knew he could get Imogene to move from whatever had forced her there in the first place. Flack walked back into the hall stepping over the clothes and other items thrown there.

Flack pulled out his cell phone and called Stella. If anyone knew what to do when it came to female problems it's her. "Stella I found Gene she's here at her apartment and everything is a mess. There's stuff all in the hall and stuff knocked over in the apartment. Where is she? She's sitting on the couch drinking beer and ignoring the world right now. She told me to get out. Alright I'll try to get through to her." Flack hung up and put his phone back in the pocket.

Not much later Stella showed up with a bottle of wine in her hand. "You show up with more alcohol?" Flack questioned. "If it is what I think it is she'll want it. These are a man's clothes they must be Kevin's." Stella said. "Gene did he break up with you?" Stella asked. "He cheated on me. In our bed with that bitch from across the hall I have a mind to go over there."

"I don't think so. I know you want to go over there but trust me drinking this is way more fun. I'll even drink it with you and help you clean up a bit." Stella offered. "I need a new bed." Imogene hiccupped. "Is everything okay in here cause I don't wanna die." Flack said poking his head in. "Your fine." Stella assured him. "Good."

"Gene just keep telling yourself for the next two months 'I need a man like I need a whole in my head.' If you want Lindsey and I could come over rent some love movies and you can mope about. Eat ice cream and cry if you need to. I did after my first boyfriend broke up with me." Stella told her. Imogene chuckled. "I'd like that." Stella nodded.

"Don?"

"Yeah Gene?"

"Can you help me move the mattress?" Imogene asked. A week later she was back to herself. She was at work analyzing evidence again. She had erased every trace of Kevin from her apartment. She had no trouble keeping up with the rent from what she had saved. Mac had asked her since they were no longer together if she would transfer back to PA. She had come to New York because of Kevin. She liked New York and didn't want to leave.

She was going to stay in the NY and keep working there. Kevin be damned she had all she needed without him. Stella and Lindsey became her best friends after that having girl's night out sometimes.

A/N: okay that was really suckie but I'm not done yet. This is just the start. I had to get through that bit so I can build some stronger bonds between Imogene and the other members of the team. Bring on everything else. Also I'm looking for ideas on what could happen on these nights out she has with Stella and Lindsey. Something funny nothing depressing.
