Gail and Holly had been dating for a week now. It was different than anything Gail had ever experienced though. It wasn't all awkward encounters and stuffy dinner dates. They had just been hanging out like they normally would, except with more kissing. Gail was becoming very fond of the kissing. She liked the fact that nothing had seemed to change between the two of them. They would still tease each other the same and Holly didn't seem to be one of these people that was too dependent on other people. This was very important to Gail as she wasn't one of these people either. Gail was very independent, she didn't like to think of herself as needing anyone and she didn't really need Holly, however she wanted her. She wanted Holly in her life and that scared her a little. It made her feel vulnerable and one thing that Gail didn't want people to think of her as, was vulnerable. This is why she hadn't introduced Holly to any of her friends yet, or even told them about the nature of their relationship. It wasn't because Gail was ashamed because Holly was a woman, it was because she was ashamed at how vulnerable Holly made her feel.

Gail had nearly finished her shift when she got a text from Holly.

'Hey, I'm nearly finished here for the evening if you wanna meet me at mine after work? We could grab a movie and some take-away?'

'Okay, but I get to pick the movie, I don't trust your dorky tatse.' Replied Gail.

'Suit yourself. Want me to pick you up from work in half hour?'

'Sure. Try not to be late.'

Just as Gail had sent that last text, Traci approached her. "Hey you, don't forget I need that report by tomorrow morning."

"What?! Are you kidding me? Like I want to be stuck here for another hour." Moaned Gail.

"Special plans Gail?" Traci asked, raising her eyebrow at Gail.

"No." Gail said snorting.

"Yeah okay, see you tomorrow." Traci didn't believe her, but she wasn't going to push it just yet.

Gail sighed as she made her way to her desk to finish off her paperwork for the evening. The place was pretty empty apart from Chris sat at the other side of the room, apparently finishing off some of his paperwork too.

"Hey Gail." He said as she sat down.

Gail didn't reply to him. The last thing she wanted was him holding her up while Holly was waiting for her.

"Gail…" Chris said when he didn't hear a reply.

"You know, its kinda hard for me to concentrate when I have this incessant drone down my ear hole. Keep it down." Gail said. She had little patience for him at the moment.

"Geez, sorry."

Gail had nearly finished her work when Holly rounded the corner.

"Hey you." Holly said, heading towards where Gail was sat.

"Heyyy." Gail said, looking up and smiling at Holly. "I am almost done here then we'll head off."

"Sure, it's quite nice watching you hunched over paperwork as opposed to it being me." Holly said with a big smirk on her face.

"Ha ha, at least I can pull it off." Gail had all but forgotten that Chris was still in the room.

"How come she's allowed to talk to you, yet you attacked me for even saying hi." Chris said.

Gail and Holly both looked over to where Chris was sat. "Well she doesn't whine half as much as you do, plus you kind of make my skin crawl." Gail replied, shrugging her shoulders.

With that Gail was finished, she put her paperwork away, grabbed Holly's arm and dragged her out of the room. "C'mon, I've got some clothes in my locker so we can head straight to yours after we've picked up dinner and a movie."

Gail led Holly to the locker room so that she get changed out of her uniform. As Gail walked up to her locker and began taking off her belt and weapon, Holly stood awkwardly in the doorway, scanning the room, trying to avert her eyes from Gail.

"So this is your locker room huh?"
"Ermm, yeah interesting I know. I'll only be a minute." Replied Gail.

Gail had her back to Holly as she was taking off her shirt. Holly tried her best but she couldn't help but stare at the bare exposed skin on Gail's back. She licked her lips, breathing becoming laboured. Gail could sense Holly's eyes burning into the back of her. She looked over her shoulder and caught Holly's eyes staring at her.

"You see something you like perv?" Gail quipped with a smirk on her face.

Blushing, Holly looked away as Gail put a clean shirt on. "Sorry."

"I think I'd be more offended if you didn't try and look to be honest." Gail responded as she undid her trousers, pulling them off.

Holly was far too embarrassed and distracted to respond. She noticed the curve of Gail's waist. She was sure Gail was trying to look that irresistible just to wind her up. As Gail pulled on a pair of jeans, Holly averted her eyes again, adamant she wasn't going to be caught staring again.

"Ready to go?" Gail asked.

Holly cleared her throat. "Yep, all set."

Gail just laughed as they made there way out of the precinct towards Holly's car. "You're evil you know that right?!" Holly said.

"Ha. You love it."

They picked up takeout and a movie on their way back to Holly's place. The movie was of course Gail's choice, some new horror film. Holly joked that this was so that she would have to cuddle up to her when she got too scared. They were sat on Holly's luxury sofa after having just finished their dinner, they were all ready to watch the movie. They were both sat up right, a little awkward. Holly kept glancing over to Gail, she just wanted to feel close to her. After the sight she witnessed earlier in the locker room, her emotions were all over the place.

"You wanna stretch out?" Holly asked Gail.

"Ermm, yeah okay."
Holly twisted her body and put her feet up on the sofa, inviting Gail to cuddle up to her. Gail obliged and moved towards Holly. She settled under Holly's arm, entwining their legs. With that Holly's arm was then free to settle around Gail's waist. They stayed this way for a while, watching the film. However it wasn't too long before Holly became too distracted. She simply couldn't stop thinking about earlier. She started threading her fingers through Holly's hair. "I can't stop thinking about black lace." Holly blurted out.

"Excuse me?" Gail said, lifting herself up from where she was laying on Holly.

"You're wearing black lace underwear, and I can't stop thinking about it."

Gail would have made some sort of quip about Holly being a pervert, however her admission had stirred a feeling inside Gail. She leaned in and placed a gentle kiss on Holly's lips. When she pulled away, they stared into each other's eyes. Gail realised that Holly wanted her, and in return she realised that she really wanted Holly. Gail started kissing Holly with more force. Their kisses were heated, tongues meeting, breathing becoming heavier. Holly's hands began to roam over Gail's body. They began on her back, however they found their way to Gail's thighs. She pulled on her inner thigh, making it so that Gail was now on top of her, their legs tangled together. Holly's confidence was giving Gail the confidence to explore. She reached up, her fingers threading through Holly's hair. This did unspeakable things to the pit of Holly's stomach. She needed some sort of release and so she moved her leg in between Gail's, bending her knee so that her thigh came in contact with Gail's centre. This caused Gail to pull away from Holly's lips, her mouth falling open into an O as she breathed in. Holly's hands found their way to Gail's jean covered back side, applying more pressure with her thigh. Gail responded by kissing Holly's jaw, moving her hair out of the way as she applied more kisses down Holly's neck. Her tongue sneaked out, making contact with Holly's neck.

Holly realised that things were getting a little out of control. She moved her hands, placing them on Gail's hips, slowly pushing her away.

"We need to stop." She breathed.

"No we don't." Gail said, still pressing kisses down Holly's neck, making her way to her cleavage.

"Oh we do, else I'm not going to be able to stop at all."

"Fine by me."

"No. I think we should just talk about this." Holly said as she began to sit up.

Gail sighed in annoyance. She wasn't really annoyed at Holly, just very frustrated.

"I just don't want to force you into anything. This is all very new for you and I don't want to do this and then you realise that actually you made this huge mistake and run for the hills." Holly explained, slightly out of breath as she was rambling.

"Woah, slow down." Gail said.

"I just don't want to scare you off." Holly explained as she cupped Gail's face.

"This is not me climbing a tree and not knowing how to get down okay. I like you. To be honest, I'm not sure where this is going and I don't feel the need to label it right now. But I like being with you, spending time with you, and that's a big deal for me. You know I don't really like people. But I like you."

Holly visibly relaxed. "I like you too. So we've got all the time in the world to take this to the next level. I would like it if you would stay though. No funny business, just stay."

Gail sighed. "Okay, I'll stay. Lets not wait to long to take this to the next level though. Cause you know I'm pretty hot, and I've got needs."

Holly laughed as she got up, taking Gail's hand and leading her towards her bedroom.
