Chapter 4
Hey guys, thanks for all of the reviews they really make my day, and help me write faster, too! Anyway here's the next chapter. Enjoy!
Helen awoke the next morning to the smell of breakfast cooking. She sat up, looked around, and realized that she was in her bed. She vaguely remembered falling asleep on Mike's shoulder toward the end of the movie, and someone, probably him or Bobby had carried her to her room. She was half-asleep and too tired to open her eyes to see who it was. She shrugged her shoulders and got out of bed. As she approached the kitchen she saw Ellenor cooking eggs and Zoey setting in her high chair eating a bowl of Fruit Loops.
"Hey sleepyhead good morning."
"Hey." she said as she took a seat on the bar.
"You were really out last night. I looked back halfway through the movie and you were falling asleep on Mike's shoulder. Bobby had to carry you to your room. You gonna get hell from Lindsay for that." Ellenor informed her as she dumped the scrambled eggs onto a plate.
"Oh god." muttered Helen. "I'm in trial against her tomorrow."
Ellenor laughed.
"Oh I almost forgot. Mike didn't have the heart to wake you up last night to say good bye so he left me this and told me to give it to you today." she slid a note to Helen.
She opened it and found a short message written on it.
Helen,
I really had a good time last night and I thought you might want to do it again sometime. Preferable without your friends. How about dinner tomorrow night?
Mike
Helen smiled as she closed the note and went to get dressed.
"Good news?" asked Ellenor
Helen just turned around and grinned at her and continued walking down the hall. After getting dressed in jeans, a tee shirt, and a light jacket she took a pen and a piece of paper and wrote a message on it. When she was done she told Ellenor that she was leaving and would be back in a little while. She drove down to the Boston PD and walked to Mike's desk. He thankfully wasn't there and Helen left the note on his desk.
Mike walked back to his desk after a long time questioning a suspect in a murder case. I need to get Helen down here soon. He thought as he sat down. He noticed a paper lying on his desk so he picked it up and read it.
Mike,
Dinner sounds great, but why wait until tomorrow? How about tonight? I'll be home all day. Call if you wanna go tonight.
Helen
He smiled as he picked up the phone and dialed her number.
Sorry about the sort of cliffhanger. I promise I'll try my best to get the next chapter up soon. That's when the case will start. Hope u liked it. Review please!
