A/N: SO here's the chapter that turns a one shot into a full on case that goes wrong :)
Don't own anything.
ANd tututut to Danny who didn't complement Lindsay first. She got all the attention though teehee.
Meanwhile, on the other side of town, a young woman wasn't lucky like Lindsay. She thought she was going to have a night alone, pampering. But before she could get in the bath, someone knocked on the door. It was her boyfriend. And from then onwards, all that could be heard from her apartment was shouting. Standing with his fists clenched in her apartment, her angry boyfriend rose his voice one more time to shout at her.
"You stupid bitch! How could you leak information to the cops! Are you fucking insane! I'm gonna get caught and it's all your fault Hannah! I have half of mine to…to…" He charged closer to her and hit her cheek with his palm, hard. She stumbled back and hit her head on the wall behind her, then it all went black.
If he wasn't angry maybe, she would be alive.
If he wasn't angry maybe, she would just have concussion.
If he wasn't angry maybe…maybe, she could have had a chance.
But was it more than just domestic violence?
To their dismay, Lindsay's cell on the floor interrupted 'dessert'. Danny ignored it and carried on with what he was doing, he had taken his shirt off and his wife beater had just joined it on the floor. Lindsay's dress was halfway there…if it wasn't for the interruption it would have been on the floor. He was kissing her deeply, but she couldn't leave her cell-it could be important.
She moaned in his mouth and tried to gently push him away, her hands on his chest. He opened his eyes but remained kissing her, but she looked at him pleadingly, and he couldn't disobey those eyes. He pulled away and sighed when she reached for her cell.
"Monroe." She coughed out. Danny sighed, knowing Mac would take his Montana away for a case, and Danny would be alone at home. But then his cell went off, so he got up and ran to his bedroom. Lindsay could faintly hear him say, "Messer, what's up Stel." Lindsay smiled; maybe they could have a case together. She tuned back into what Mac was telling her and then when she assumed he had finished she said,
"I'll be right there Mac." Luckily, for her, she was reply to 'We want you and Danny at the scene please NOW.'
Danny walked back into the room and sighed. He picked up his wife beater and placed his shirt back on too. Lindsay stood up and straightened her dress down.
"You better get changed, it's cold out." Danny said, but Lindsay nodded and sped over to her coat, which hung on the hook near the door.
"We don't have time. Mac wants us at a scene right away." She said grabbing her bag and throwing her keys in and she walked to the coffee table that Danny was stood next to, to grab her cell. She looked up at him and smiled. He sighed.
"So much for 'dessert'." He grunted, and acted like a child in a sulk when he walked to grab his jacket. Lindsay followed him and wrapped her arms around his waist.
"I'll make it up to you." She smiled.
He raised his eyebrows and placed his jacket on, Lindsay moving a little so he could do it up.
"I like the sound of that." He nuzzled her nose and kissed her sweetly before they walked out the door. As he was locking it Lindsay said, "Do you actually know where we're going?" he turned to her and lowered his eyebrows at her, before she walked off to the stairs.
"Do you not listen to Mac ever?" he asked catching up with her.
"No." she laughed as they made there way down the stairs.
Danny was not wrong. It was freezing outside. He told Lindsay that Stella had said the crime scene was not even a block away from their apartment, making them the easiest CSIs to have the case. But Lindsay couldn't even bear walking to the crime scene, let alone spending hours processing it. The harsh wind attacked her from every direction and blew away her warmth. She couldn't stop shivering and her teeth were chattering. Danny enveloped his hands in hers, his large hands providing her small hands some warmth; however, it didn't stop the rest of her body from turning into ice.
"I hate to tell you I told you so but…" Danny began but shut up after Lindsay snapped, "shut up." back. He laughed out of his nose quietly. But Lindsay didn't have to put up with it for long because when they turned the corner, they had arrived.
Plus, it was that cold, heaters had been placed around the crime scene. Lindsay smiled like a little kid in a toyshop. Danny saw her smile and smirked. They walked under the tape and Flack approached them with his usual smirk on his face.
"Well don't you two scrub up nice for a crime scene?" He teased, mainly staring at Lindsay's red dress. Danny noticed this and made walking to the body an excuse to hit him. Lindsay giggled.
"You look really nice Lindsay." Flack seriously complemented, causing Lindsay to smile thankfully.
"Dressed for anything special?" Flack asked as they walked up to Danny.
"Just dinner." Lindsay said smiling as Danny smirked at her.
Flack didn't dwell on the matter. He was proud of Lindsay, for taming the lab 'playboy' and turning him into a romantic guy, which made teasing him easier for Flack.
The body, a young pretty woman wrapped in a towel. Her hair was blond and still wet.
"Looks like she was in the bath before…" Lindsay stated to Danny.
"Why bath? Why not shower?" Danny said, causing Lindsay to laugh, making him confused.
"You really don't know women do you." She laughed kneeling down to examine the body. Lindsay laughed because she knew Danny, again, had no come back.
"Two to me." she whispered to herself.
Flack walked up to them after speaking to the person who found the body. He was a Chinese takeaway shop owner and he was throwing the garbage out when he saw lying on the sidewalk with just a towel on.
"To say he owns a popular takeaway shop in New York, that guy knows no English whatsoever." He said.
Lindsay smiled at him, knowing that Flack has some hard times in his job.
"I think he said that he just found her here, like that." He said, shivering a little himself. Lindsay noticed this.
"Thanks Flack, you can go now, get warm." She smiled sweetly, as he waved and walked to his car.
Danny knelt down next to her and she looked at him with a worried, upset look.
"What's up? What ya' thinkin'?" The air steamed around his mouth when he spoke.
She shrugged. "I don't know, but this doesn't look right. She's soaking wet, and there's nothing on her but this weird stain, which smells like shampoo so it wont be that right…?" she placed the swab in her kit.
Danny nodded and looked around them. There was no other evidence.
"Plus, women don't get out of the bath and go for a walk in the middle of a cold night." He stated returning his gaze back to Lindsay, who was grinning.
"So you do know something about women." She cooed. He blushed slightly and hoped the fact that the cold was turning his nose and cheeks red would cover it up. He stood up and held out his hand for Lindsay, taking his gloves off first. She grabbed it and he pulled her up.
"God, Lindsay, your hands are freezing." He exclaimed at the sudden cold contact on his warm hands.
She closed her eyes and smiled. "Yours are warm." She whispered and he laughed.
"I better call…"
"Hawkes" Hawkes said as he laughed and walked up to them. Lindsay opened her eyes and smiled at her friend. He smiled back.
"Lovely dress Lindsay." He complimented her.
"Thank you Hawkes." It was funny because Danny was the only guy who hadn't complimented her dress. He was the only one dressed up warm too. Equipped for the weather. Lindsay was jealous.
"You guys can leave, I'll finish up." Hawkes said setting down his equipment near the victim.
"Cheers Shel." Danny said as they walked down the sidewalk.
"Where are we going? We are not walking to the labs Messer." Lindsay growled.
Danny nodded. "I know. We're going home to get changed into suitable clothing Montana. I don't want every lab tech drooling all over you in that beautiful dress." He said. Lindsay sighed and smiled, relieved that he had finally acknowledged her outfit. She swung their arm, which was a bad idea because the wind made both Danny's and her hand even colder. Therefore, Danny stopped her. She pouted at him but couldn't even contain her own laughter. They both walked to their apartment in a fit of laughter, staying as close to each other as possible. For love. For warmth.
