YOUR REVIEWS ARE AWESOME, THANK YOU! IM GLAD MOST OF YOU ARE ENJOYING IT ... AND YES I DID STATE I WAS CHANGING GAILS PERSONALITY JUST A LITTLE .. I WANTED A FLUFFY,FUNNY AND ALMOST DRAMA FREE STORY XX
Traci returned from the bathroom to an empty table, looking around she spots McNally not Swark and Price sat at the bar ..
"Hey why are you guys sat here?"
"Frankie's arrived which means Holly will soon" Andy explained.
"Yeah and Chris text Dov telling him to get he and Gail a drink ready for when their shift ends" Chloe said excitedly ..
"Oh I see" Traci laughed "so you two have taken front row seats to the floor show huh? That's pretty mean guys, I mean I think Gail really likes Holly"
"Yeah exactly " Andy sighed "and there is no way the Gail Peck we know and love is going to allow Frankie to take that away from her "
Traci pulled a empty stool over and took a seat "well I'll just sit here incase I need to break up the cat fight"
Chloe and Andy laughed shaking their heads ..
" oh I see all the losers are here" Frankie said sarcastically as she headed to the bar sighting the three women..
" well you're here" Andy muttered into her beer bottle ..
"What was that"? Frankie asked
"I said its good to see you" Andy lied with a smirk letting Frankie know that she defiantly didn't say that ..
"So are you here alone"? Chloe asked trying to keep her tone casual ..
"Not that it's any of your business Princess, but no, I'm meeting Doctor Stewart,but don't worry I don't plan to be here long"
Traci rolled her eyes, she hoped to God Gail was going to wipe the smirk off the detectives face when she arrived ..
"Hey hey" Chloe said nudging Andy "Holly's here.. "
Holly actually stood outside for a few minutes talking herself into going inside ... Cassie was right she did like Gail and being on a date with her work colleague didn't sit right .. Telling herself it was just a drink and nothing more helped her pull open the door to the bar and walk in ..
"Hey guys" she smiled widely seeing the women sat at the bar " I didn't know you'd be here"
"Well Leo's with his dad for the weekend so I'm enjoying the adult time" Traci explained ..
"Good for you" Holly grinned
"Hey Doc" Frankie said from behind the brunette " I got you a drink and us a table"
Holly smiled at the three grinning women " I'll see later"
"Does she even want to be here" Andy asked noticing the disappointment in the doctors face ..
"Here? Probably, with her? I doubt it"
"Why say yes to a date that"? Chloe wondered out loud ..
"I think Anderson put her on the spot and we all know Holly wouldn't want to hurt anyone's feelings ,so she probably felt like she had no choice " Traci answered..
"Hey kev" Dov called out to the bar tender " can I pay for two beers for when Peck and Diaz get here"?
"They finished their shift"? Chloe asked causing Dov to nod in reply ..
"Show time" Andy smiled clinging her beer bottle with Chloe's ..
"So how are you finding fifteen diversion"? Holly asks the detective ..
"It's alright! I mean they know what there doing which is a refreshing change.. I work with Them losers over at the bar"
Holly looked over at the "losers" with a smile..
"Actually I like Traci,she likes to learn and ask questions and I think that's a good trait to have in a cop," Frankie continued " I find it weird how close they are, I mean like family" she cringed ..
"Isn't that what it is"? Holly asked with a frown "I mean the job is dangerous and you have to rely on each other to have one another's back, don't you"?
"I look out for myself" Frankie said bluntly " I've never met people like these, I mean their , Caring to one another and their kind and loving and loyal and group together, it's gross"
Holly raises her eyebrows slightly shocked " I'm guessing you don't make friends easily"
Frankie swigged her beer " well if I'm honest i Haven't been around long enough, my last diversion I was there eleven months and I might have pissed off the Sargent so I was transferred "
Holly narrowed her eyes "what did you do"?
"I might have slept with her daughter" Frankie laughed " then she got all clinging and I had to tell her I don't do relationships, then she went crying to mommy and ..bam " she slams her hands on the table " I end up in this dump, luckily I work mainly with Steve Peck and he isn't much of a talker out side the work circle "
Holly's mouth had fell open at some point though out the detectives rant.. "Ooooh" was all she could muster up..
"Yeah I mean you tell them it's a bit of fun and they don't listen" Frankie sulked " but here I am and it seems to be working, like I said they're idiots but they know what their doing"
Holly wasn't sure what to say after that,so she smiled and nodded..
"Drink", Frankie asks..
"Oh I Uh.. I ..,uh.
Before Holly could answer she witnesses Gail and Chris arrive. Suddenly her palms are sweaty and she feels butterflies in her stomach., Gail is dressed in leather pants and a white sweater and damn she looks good.. Her hair is down and falls over her shoulders.. That tough cop look as gone and replaced by something breath taking..
"Hey is that Holly" Chris asks waving over ..
Gail rolls her eyes knowing that pretending she hadn't seen her Wouldn't work now ..
Gail turns with a smile and lifted her hand..
Holly waved back feeling a little heat rise in her cheeks ..
Frankie looking smug at the bar orders more drinks for her and Holly " I would ask you to join us ..but Well You know .. I'm on a date"
Gail smiled with a nod "good for you, who wants to lose some money to me on the pool table"? She asked letting Frankie know she was no longer interested in anything she was going to say ..
" I will" Dov raised his hand " wait... I mean I will play you, not lose money,"
"What ever you say loser, rack em up" Gail ordered Downing her beer ..
"You want another"? Andy asked .. Shocked when Gail shook her head " nah I'm driving"
Holly watched Gail for a while with a small smile on her face before being interrupted by Frankie returning to her seat .. " could they be any more boring" she moaned ..
Holly rolled her eyes " I like them"
"Really?" Frankie frowned " I mean the only normal one I would say is probably Gail and that says a lot"
Holly laughed " you guys get on"? Wondering if Gail would actually take to the women in front of her, who weirdly held a lot of common traits with the blonde.
"Not really, I mean there was that one night, but we were drunk and the wedding was super boring so the only thing to do was get drunk and laid "Frankie rambled..
"You and Gail"? The pathologist asked in total shock ..
Frankie shrugged " yeah it was one off when I first came here.. Which is weird because we don't actually like each other and only really talk when it's to do with work .. Which again is odd because we actually work really well together.."
Holly looked over at Gail who was dancing in victory at beating Dov at pool ..
"Hand it over loser" she called out holding her hand flat for him to place her winnings in... Holly turned back to Frankie " I just wouldn't have placed you two together"
Frankie sunk her beer " me either and believe me we defiantly don't have a connection or a longing ..but what I do know about her is ..she's good in bed and amazing at her her job.. And those are some great qualities to have if it wasn't for the fact she's a cold hearted snarky bitch "
Holly choked on her drink, trying her hardest to cover it up " well I uh.." She shook her head " I wouldn't say she's a bitch"
Frankie looked curiously at the doctor "well she probably hides it around you, I mean you're a very attractive women Doctor Stewart"
Not really sure what that had to do with Gail not being a bitch but Holly smiled and thanked the detective anyways .. "So do you plan to stay at the division"?
Again Frankie shrugged "well that depends"
"On"? Holly asked ...
Frankie leaned forwards running her tongue across her bottom lip " if I have something to stay for"
Holly swallowed forcing a smile "I uh need to uh... use the bathroom"
Holly quickly headed to the bathroom leaving Frankie alone ..
"Ok Peck, what's with you"? Traci asked
"Me"?
"Yeah, I know you like Doctor Stewart and I know she likes you, yet she's here with detective horn dog over there and you're ok with that?.. I don't believe it"
Gail took her shot at the pool table pocketing the black " and she wins again" she cheers holding her arms in the air "pay up Diaz"
Chris handed Gail a twenty shaking his head ..
"I don't know why you bother" Gail smiled before turning to Traci " and you., are far to good at being a detective" the blonde laughed " yes I like Holly and no I'm not exactly over joyed she's with that weirdo, but.. It's a free country .. See ya"
Traci frowned having no idea what the hell th blonde was taking about ..
"Hey honey you ok"? Holly asked down the phone to her niece..as she sits in toilet cubicle .
"Well you'll be happy to know this is probably the worst night of my life.. "
I wish I was home eating pizza with you"
Cassie felt bad for being mean to her aunt earlier " I saved you some"
"Thanks honey" Holly smiled ..
"So that bad huh"?
Holly sighed " yeah I think I'm going to make an excuse and come home"
"Want me to call in like ten minutes and say I need you home"? Cassie offered ..
"It's ok Honey I'll uh think of something" Holly laughed " if not I'll send you an Sos ok"?
Holly said her goodbyes to her Niece before quickly taking a wee and heading out of the cubicle .. Only to be met by Gail stood washing her hands with a smirk on her face " Hi Doc, fancy seeing you here"
Holly smiled running the water over her hands " gloating in my misery are we"?
"Well. I knew you weren't in for a night of fun and laughter, I mean I do work with the women "
"Mmmmm" Holly hummed
"So you need a ride home?" Gail asked " I heard you on the phone to Cassie so I'm guessing you need a get away driver"
Holly laughed " no don't be silly, I can't ask you to do that"
"You didn't. Gail smirked pulling Holly by her hand " I'll get my coat whilst you make your excuses "
Gail let go of Holly's had instantly feeling the Loss.. " laters jerks"she said pulling her jacket off the back of Traci's chair
"You're leaving " Traci frowned ..
"Yep"
...
"Frankie I'm sorry to cut this short but huh.. My fifteen year old niece is staying with me, and she's not feeling well so I'm gonna have to go" Holly explained apologetically ..
"Oh" Frankie frowned "well uh ., I could come with you"? She smiled ..
Holly laughed nervously knowing that wasn't an offer to see how her niece was doing.. " I don't think that's uh... That um..
"Ready" Gail asked from behind the stuttering brunette ..
"Peck"? Frankie frowned ..
"Gail uh... Gail's offered me a ride home so"..
"I can get her a cab" Frankie snapped towards Gail ..
"No need" Gail smirked "let's go Hol"
Holly said her good byes and hurried towards the door followed by Gail .. As Gail pasted the detective she placed her arm in her way " I didn't realise I was stepping on your toes peck "
Gail stepped in a little closer with a cocky smile "well know you know"
Holly witness the exchange between the two cops, feeling a little heat in the cheeks, was that Gail confirming she actually did like the brunette.. ?
...
The first part of the drive was silent, both women taking a minute to themselves before Holly began to laugh ...
"What"? Gail asked slightly amused ..
"It's nothing really" Holly laughed again " it's just that women is something else"
"Uh huh. She likes to talk about herself huh"? Gail agreed ..
"I don't think she even asked me one question about my life" Holly told the blonde ..
"Well you shoulda done your research doc, had you asked me I could of told you what an ass she is"
Holly feeling a little brave thought this was the prefect time to tease her new Friend " oh yeah cause you know all about that right"?
Gail Frowned "excuse me"?
"Frankie told me all about her night of passion with a certain blonde snarky cop" the brunette teased again ..
"Hey hey listen that was a very drunken one off, something never to be repeated .. Ever" Gail protested "and believe me when I say drunk. I mean like blurred vision, barely standing drunk"
Holly laughed loudly shaking her head " hey it's none of my business"
"Well I'm just telling you .. So you know.. I can't stand the women and I don't want to ever be reminded of that night.. And anyway rather then tease me you should be thanking me for saving you from being her next victim"
" I don't think so I don't sleep around .,
The car fell silent, "oh my god Gail I'm so sorry. I didn't mean it like that, I just meant that I don't really do that one night stand thing. I really mean it to come out like it"
Gail Laughed "relax nerd, I'm not offended, it was what it was "
"I know and it's none of my business and everybody is different, I just meant that I don't personally put out on the first night. Not that it's a bad thing if you do, I just don't, I mean I'm not saying that I .. I.. I'm a huh"
"Ok stop" Gail ordered" as cute as your rambling is ..you really just need to stop, I get what you meant Holly.. And I admire you for that,"
Holly cringed a little" I am really sorry how that came out, I don't want you to think that I have an opinion on what your do personally"
Gail pulled up on to Holly's drive " hey it's fine really, " she smiled placing her hand on the Doctors, who smiled .. " thanks for the ride home"
"Anytime"
Holly stepped out of the car feeling completely embarrassed even though Gail assured her, she wasn't offered...
Feeling the effects off her three drinks at the penny, Holly decided to put it out there that she liked the blonde sat in the drivers seat ...
"You know, this is totally all your fault" Holly smirked leaning on the open window ..
"My fault"? Gail asked
Biting her lip Holly nodded..
"Care to explain why", Gail asked ..
Holly took a deep breath " well.. If you would stop taking so long to ask me out, I wouldn't have to feel obliged to say yes when the likes of Frankie put me on the spot would I? Hmmmm?
Gail's jaw dropped a little " huh"?
Holly laughed " good night Officer" and just like that Gail as sat alone on Holly's drive with no idea what just happened ..
Once Holly was inside she quickly rid herself off her shoes and hid behind the curtain looking out the window..
A confused Cassie looked on " uh .. Are you ok"?
"Mmmm hmmm" her aunt hummed ..
"And what are you looking at"? The teen asked slowly ..
"Gail" was her aunts reply..
"Gail" the teen gasped " what's she doing here" she asked running over to look out..
"No no " Holly panicked pulling her niece" she might see us" she laughed dropping down on to the sofa taking the teen with her.. "Gail saved me from the worst date of my life "
"Thought it wasn't a date" the teen mocked sarcastically ..
Holly laughed "anyways Gail brought me home and I .. "She licked her bottom lip " I put it out there that I like her.. Kinda"
"Kinda"?
Holly sat up to look at the youngster " I told her it was her fault that I had a bad night, and that I wouldn't have to go on dates if she would hurry up and ask me out "
Cassie clapped "yes way to go auntie"
"mmmm" Holly smiled leaning on her niece's shoulder " well she knows now so let's see"
"She's so gonna ask you out" Cassie said optimistically..
"I hope so Honey" ... I really hope so .
