Betterman

She felt him move and gathered herself for what was about to come.
A Senior Agent and a subordinate having a sexual relationship. If word came out both of them would be fired.
He was married and she was new on the team. After a rough case and a few beers, they went to her apartment and it started. He treated her differently from the others, mainly because she was a woman, but because of their relationship too.
She heard the front door close and his car driving off and she cried.
Life had been rough to her, her mother died when she was 12 and her father started drinking. She had to take care of her brothers and God helped her when she did something bad. Her father almost beat her to death twice. Bruises and scratches had been normal to her, until one day. She spoke to her teacher and the teacher helped her and her brothers by calling the social services to take them away from that monster that once used to be their father, her hero.
Maybe that was why she wanted to become a Police officer, to help people, to protect them from all kinds of evil.
She still dared to dream though, that her Prince Charming would come and take her away from all of this pain and suffering.
When she was young, her mother told her that one day there would be someone waiting for her, to love her and protect her and to take care of her. Now, she felt the need of that someone.

Love and Sex don't mix.
