Okay so this is my very first fanfic, never done one before but always seem to have lots of ideas floating around in my head so thought I'd finally type one of them.

Now I should warn that if you don't like the idea of Lilly and Scotty do not read. Mega fluff and some intense details to come so not for the young!

I don't own Cold Case but if I did I'd give Kathryn Morris a pay rise! Love that girl!

There's no case stuff in here really, so sorry about that and the story takes place in Blank Generation, after Scotty has found out that Elisa is dead and Lilly's house has just been broken into. I've used some actual quotes that were in the show so I've put them in italics them to be clear that they aren't my words.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Lilly leans against the post in her kitchen and lowers her head. Stillman reaches out and touches her arm, "You okay?" he says.

Lilly nods and looks up to Stillman. "Scotty."

"Yeah" he replies as he rubs her arm and walks out of her house…….

Lilly was alone, with only her thoughts. She felt concerned that someone had broke into her house and written on her wall, but that didn't compare to the sorrow she felt for Scotty. She was going to call him but after this she didn't think she would be much comfort to him. Lilly looked over to the window which now has a board tacked over it and then to the wall where the writing still looked back. She felt drained and exhausted and although wanting it gone she couldn't face cleaning it off tonight.

She took a deep breath and headed upstairs to take a shower.

Stillman, Vera and Jeffries were on their way back to PPD. As they pulled in to parking lot, Vera noticed Scotty's car.

"Isn't that Scotty's car? What's he doing here?"

"At this hour too" Jeffries replied.

As they walked into the homicide department they saw Scotty rummaging through some papers on his desk. He looked tired, with red eyes. He was unshaven and looked scruffy in jeans and a grey hooded sweatshirt.

"What you doing here so late? Trying to sneak in and out so no-one would notice you?"

"Uhhh, I just came by to pick up some stuff, ya know."

"We're sorry about Elisa" Jeffries said compassionately.

"Yeah, well I'm not sure what happened yet…. she was, uhh….anyway I gotta go."

"Yeah, sure," Stillman replied.

Scotty started to walk away, slowly with his head hung low. Vera looked at Stillman and raised his eyebrows. Scotty was halfway across the room, when Jeffries sighed. Stillman and Vera turned to look at him as he said, "So do we think this Maurice guy had anything to do with the break in at Lilly's?"

"What?"

The men all quickly turned their heads as Scotty was walking back over towards them, his mouth hung open slightly and his eyes wide. "What? Was she there? Is she okay? Why didn't someone call?" Scotty looked worried.

"Scotty, Lil is fine, everything's under control, she wasn't there."

Scotty stopped in front of Vera and scanned the three men. "Is she there now?"

"Yeah" Vera replied.

"What on her own?"

"Scotty, you know Lilly, she won't have anyone worry about her," Stillman answered.

"And you all just accept this?" Scotty looked confused. He couldn't believe they would just leave her alone. I mean yeah, sure he knew Lilly always thought she could take care of herself but, at this moment he just felt as though he should be there for her, like he knew she wanted to be there for him.

"I gotta see her," Scotty said as he turned away from the other men and headed towards the door, this time walking a lot quicker.
