Gail blushed " what was that for "?
Holly shrugged " like I said that was a really sweet thing you did"
Gail looked into the brunettes deep chocolate eyes before wondering down to her lips . Her soft beautiful plumped lips .. Gail remembered how they felt against hers that night at camp . How amazing her tongue felt in her mouth teasing her to the point she couldn't keep her hands off her .
Holly felt Gail's eyes on her . the rush in her gut begged her to lean forward and kiss her again ..
Time stood still for the both of them both contemplating who would make the move..
" I uh .. Holly swallowed " I better go inside . Steve will be having kittens " she laughed ..
Gail nodded with a small smile as Holly touched her arm before walking away ..
Gail sighed heavily slamming the trunk door shut .as She walked into the station Holly was stood at the front desk.
Gail frowned not expecting her to be there " someone's gone to get Steve " Holly told her
" you don't need an escort " Gail fumed opening the security door nodding for Holly to enter " there's always some jobs worth " she moaned shaking her head ...
" Hey miss ? A rookie called out " you have to wait for detective Peck"
Gail turned to the rookie giving him her signature death stare " she's forensics moron she doesn't need to wait . her I'D should of been enough to tell you that ! " And it's Doctor , not Miss'
Holly smiled " it's ok Gail he's only doing his job "
Gail rolled her eyes " c'mon "she nodded opening another door for the brunette.
She stopped by the locker room " you know the way right ?"
"What your not going to escort me officer ? The brunette teased
Gail checked her watch " clocked off 8 mins ago so I'm gonna say no "
Holly laughed under her breath " well enjoy the rest of your evening "
Gail nodded watching Holly head towards the parade room ..
" Holly " ?
Holly turned her head raising her eyebrows
" I'm uh .. Gonna be here for a while .. you know if .. Well if you need a ride back to work ... Or where ever "
"Can I play with the buttons in the squad car? " Holly joked
Gail shook her head " the squad car stays here I'm afraid . But Chris has a cool radio in his truck you can knock yourself out " Gail joked back
Holly laughed as she carried on walking
Gail held her hands out confused as to whether Holly needed a ride or not ?
" I just don't think the evidence is gonna hold up in court " Traci fumed.
Holly tilted her head from side to side " I Think your right " I mean the DNA is there but ... It's not enough to say yes he murdered this women "
" So what we need is a confession?" Steve sighed crossing her arms.
Holly pinched her lips together "fraid so .
"Shit " Steve sighed .
"We need to catch him out somehow" Traci said " we need him to think we have the evidence "
Steve laughed " we could leave him in a room with Gail for a minute"? "She has a amazing way with words"
Holly frowned as Traci laughed . " a while back someone had stolen one of Gail's uniforms and was parading around as a cop getting into all kind a trouble " she explained " the guy we pulled in wouldn't tell us who she was so we let Gail loose on him "
Holly still frowning
Steve laughed " let's just say once she threatened him with her baton he was more willing to talk "
"Oh " Holly laughed " well maybe she's what you need "
Steve looked out of the big window " we just need a confession" but how?
Traci checked the time " wow it's almost 8.. Maybe we should call it a night ? "
Holly agreed " I can look over the body again see if I've miss anything ?" But I'm pretty sure I got it all "
Traci smiled " you've done more then enough! And I'm sorry we've thrown you in at the deep end "
Holly smiled " it's where I prefer to be "
Traci nudged her as Steve opened the door " Penny "? He asked
" yeah absolutely " Traci nodded
Holly " ?
" oh uh thanks ...but not tonight I have a mountain of unpacking to do"
Steve nodded " ok can uh we give you a lift home ?"
Holly moved her hair away from her face " I uh ...I think I'm good ..
" you have a ride ? Traci asked
" mmmhmmmm " Holly nodded ..
Traci left it at that and walked holly to the exit spotting Chris's truck out the front . She knew Gail had drove it in that morning and couldn't help smile " enjoy the rest of your evening .. What ever your doing that is " she grinned
Holly looked at the detective wondering what she meant . Traci pointed at Chris's truck with a huge grin on her face " laters Doc"
Holly walked out into the cold looking over at Gail who flashes the head lights .
" lurking around car parks in the dark is surely grounds for arrest officer wouldn't you say "? Holly smiled her voice slightly deeper and somewhat flirtatious .
Gail smirked rolling her eyes " well it's a good job I'm an officer of the law then isn't it ? Or I could have you arrested for approaching a suspicious vehicle "
Holly laughed pulling her coat a little tighter to her body . " you getting in or what "? Gail asks leaning over to open the door .
Holly slipped in instantly feeling the warm , Gail must have put the heating on to warm the car.
" Ok so ? , directions ? Gail asked
Holly sighed biting the corner of her lip " mmmm I uh .. I'm still kinda finding why way around ' I mean I've been taking cabs every where so I uh'
Gail laughed " ok so where is it you live exactly ?
" Fenton drive "? Holly informed the blonde . Gail nodded starting the truck " nice "
The drive started off in silence until Holly switched on the radio " you did say I could knock myself out" she smiled fiddling with the buttons .
Gail nodded concentrating of the road ahead .
Taylor swift flowed from the speakers " oh hell no " Gail moaned " you can not be serious "?
Holly laughed loudly " what ? I like this song "
" no Holly " just no .. I can't listen to this " Gail objected before fighting Holly's hand away.
" you said I could play with the buttons ? "
" yeah but I didn't say you could kill my ears with that noise " I mean what are you 12"? Gail snarked
Holly laughed, she liked the sarcastic said to Gail , she liked how it just spilled out of her with out thinking ,
" I just like the song " she protested
" yeah well you keep that for when your alone or cutting up dead bodies and leave the real music to the grown ups " Gail said plugging her phone into the radio " like this " she added with a smile . Ed sheeran sang out causing Holly to smile " I like this too "
Gail frowned at her shaking her head " Taylor swift to Ed sheeran?"
" what? I didn't say I was a swift fan , I just said I liked the song " Holly argued .
" I believe you nerd " others wouldn't " Gail teased pulling into Holly's street , " Ok" so ? What number you at "?
Holly pointed to a large house with no lights on , the only house in the street with no lights on " that's me "
Gail pulled on to the drive " wow nerds really do make a lot of cash huh "?
" it comes with the job " Holly smiled
Gail nodded " Holly ? You know you really should set up your "light alarm" every house in this area has one "
" light alarm "? Holly asked confused
Gail undid her seat belt " yeah!.. I mean look down the street everyone has lights on" .. you think everyone is home except you ?" Gail said shaking her head ." Your house is the only one that screams " hey I'm not home come take some shit"
Holly laughs at Gail " ok officer I get you "
I could do it for you ?" Gail offered hoping to stay in Holly's company a little longer .
Holly undid her belt " uh no it's ok, I mean I'll find it " how hard can it be right"? She smiled
Gail nodded trying to hide her disappointment .
" thanks for the ride " Holly smiled
" welcome " was all Gail could musta up .
Holly waved leaving the car heading into her house not looking back .
Gail fell back into her seat feeling deflated , she felt like Holly couldn't wait to get away from her .
Holly closed the door leaning her back on it taking a deep breath , she would have loved to have invited Gail inside but didn't want to get to involved , Gail was obviously confused about her sexuality , she must be "? Holly thought after waking up alone the morning after their intimate night together ., Gail's straight holly , confused but straight " she told herself over and over again ' what ever was going around in Gail's head holly knew it wasn't something she was prepared to get involved in.
" Friends holly , stick to friends " she sulked .
