Melinda woke up with a serious bed head. She had cried herself to sleep that night and her eyes were puffy. She dragged herself out of the bed and got into the shower, wetting her hair, not caring that she had spent four hours straightening it the day before.( A/N: Okay I don't care how sad I am, I would not straighten my hair just to wet it again in the morning. Screw that! Lol). She got dressed in a red thermal and black dress pants. She pulled on her black high heeled boots, coat and walked out the door.
"Hey Dr. Warner." Tracy said.
"Hey Tracy. You know you can call me Melinda or Mel right? We are way beyond a professional level now. We are friends." Melinda said.
"Okay well I see you are better. That's good Melinda."
"Yeah, much better actually. I just needed some rest." She said and she meant it she had given herself a pep talk in her car and was feeling much better about the divorce well, slightly.
Fin sat at the desk bored. No one had called in a rape, kidnapping or, murder yet. The whole squad had been there for about three hours now.
"What did they create, world peace all of a sudden? Hey you could give a girl a little warnin next time!" Melinda exclaimed as she walked in, causing everyone to chuckle. She sits on Elliot's desk.
"I'm serious, did they like ban every gun and knife there is or something?"
"Hey guns don't kill people, people kill people." Munch said.
"They say that, but I don't you'd get anywhere walking up to a person and shouting bang bang, now would you?" She said.
"Well when you put it that way…"
Fin had never seen Melinda like this before.
"Hey guys I have an announcement to make." He said standing up.
"What's that?" Olivia said.
"Well I proposed to Nicole last night. She said yes."
"Aw how sweet. Great I have another wedding to plan!" Olivia exclaimed.
Fin looked over at Melinda, who had tears in her eyes.
"Hey Mellie, what's wrong?" munch said.
She dropped her hands in her head and began to sob.
Munch scooped her up and took her to the cribs upstairs. Fin looked at Olivia, who looked at Elliot and they pretty much had the same look of shock and confusion he did.
"What was that all about?" Elliot asked.
"I don't know, let's go find out." Olivia said.
"Nah just let her talk to Munch a little bit." Fin said.
Munch sat on the bed, cradling Melinda in his arms.
"Mellie, are you okay?" he asked.
She sat up and wiped her eyes.
"Yes I'm fine. But seeing that reminded me of when Michael proposed to me and how excited I was. Now look where we are, divorcing. I just pray that Fin doesn't do that. To Nicole." She said.
"Aw Doc, I'm sorry. I didn't know." Fin said entering, along with Olivia and Elliot.
"No it's me; I can be oober emotional at times." She said chuckling.
She got out of Munch's lap.
"I'm happy for you Fin I really am." She said.
A pager went off.
"It's mine! Yay, someone died! Er not that I'm happy about that. Hey we should celebrate. Seven meet at my house?" she called as she left.
"Autopsy of Mellissa Andrews. Caucasian female. Blue eyes, black hair. Case number51023304." Melinda said into the microphone.
"Blunt force trauma to the head, defensive marks on the arms and hands."
She moved to the lower parts of the body.
"Scratches and scrapes on the thighs and… vaginal tearing." She stopped the recording and called the detectives.
"Elliot I need you down here now." She said.
The detectives walk into the morgue.
"She has vaginal tearing and scrapes along the insides of her thighs. I found fluid also. She was raped. Good luck you guys."
When Fin walked into his house it was dead quiet. This was weird because, Nicole was usually home. He walked up the steps and walked into his room. His eyes went wide with rage as he saw Nicole in his bed with another man. Her eyes went wide as she saw Fin walk out. She [pushed the man off of her and ran downstairs.
"Fin." She called nervously.
He paced across the room clenching his fists.
"Get your shit and get the fuck outta my fucking house!" he yelled.
"Fin I'm so sorry!" she said afraid to move.
"Get the fuck out!" he said
He went upstairs and grabbed the guy by his shirt collar and punched him across the face.
"Fin, no! Stop!" Nicole screamed.
Soon sirens were heard and Fin was lead away in handcuffs.
He sat in the jail cell wondering who he could call.
"Ay yo Guard? I know who I need to call."
