TWO STORMS COLLIDE

Caught

Tonight was the night of the annual Christmas party. It was a very sophisticated event in which we must dress in smart casual as we will be attending a ball theme held at Holt's house.

I was stuck on an outfit to wear so I went to work in a bit of a grump this morning. My car stalled on the way to work so I was rather pissed off by the time I got in. 15 minutes late.

I stormed past everyone into the locker room to put away my things. I felt bad as I didn't speak to anyone, they must think I'm rude.

I jumped as I felt hands wrap round my waist from behind and pull me close. I relaxed into the notion as I realised it was Rosa. She kissed my neck and whispered to me.

Rosa: What a wrong baby?
Me: Urgh I couldn't find a good enough outfit for the party tonight and then my stupid car decided to stall on me. That's why I'm late.
Rosa: Yeah I was getting worried, I was just about to grab my helmet and keys.
Me: You would've come to my place just because I was a little bit late?
Rosa: (turning my body round so we were facing) Jade I care about you so much. I've never felt this protective about anyone I've ever dated before.

Rosa's facial expression was so soft and caring that I couldn't help but lean in to kiss her. She pushed me back against the locker and deepened the kiss, tangling her fingers in my hair.

I felt every emotion of the morning melt away as my girlfriend leant her body to mine and shared the whole air between us.

A cough from across the room made us leap and separate. It was Holt.

Holt: I hope there is a reason for this mornings absence detective Johnston? I am sure that you will be on time tonight?
Me : I'm very sorry sir, my car stalled. It won't happen again I promise.

Holt nodded before walking away.

Rosa: Smooth.
