ELLA
[NOV 6TH, 2038
9:00 AM]

My eyes snap open when I hear my door open and close. I silently get out of my bed and grab the gun that I have hidden underneath it.

I move to my bedroom door, aiming my gun in front of me. With a breath I open the door, quickly walking down my hall.

"Jesus Christ" I breath out as I see Connor standing by my dog.

Connor looks over at me, "Hello Ella"

"Hey Connor, uh what are you doing in my apartment?" I say as I click the safety on and place the gun in my waist band.

"You left your phone at the station and the alarm to wake you up went off and in my previous visit I noticed you didn't have an alarm clock so I thought you would miss work if I didn't wake you up" He explains, smirking.

"Oh, thank you Connor" I say, I look at the clock on the wall. It's 9:00 am, I'm supposed to be at the precinct soon. I rush back to my room, putting the gun back in it's hiding place.

I hop into the shower, turning the nob— hot water spraying onto my back, I'm always making sure that Connor was not coming in. Because for some reason my bathroom does not have a lock so If he did he'd see me fully naked this time and that would be mortifying for me, sure he's an android and probably doesn't care but my dignity cares quite a lot about it.

Once I'm finished I quickly get dressed and join Connor in the living room, "okay, I'm ready"

"Well I'm not" Connor says, looking at my bookcase. I'm sure he's scanning everything he sees.

"I see you like romance novels and movies, do you have any suggestions for me?" He asks, looking over at me.

"You watch movies?" I raise my eyebrows in disbelief, I watch as he looks over at my tv and then to me.

"I'd like to, maybe when we don't have any active cases we could watch one?" He suggests, continuing to look at my things.

"That sounds like a date, but yeah I'm down" I shrug, deciding to make myself a quick coffee in a travel mug.

"A date?" He repeats, I would've assumed that he would know what that means.

"Yeah, a date. It's where two people that like each other hang out alone and do romantic things" I say while pulling on my shoes.

"What do you do for fun Ella?"

"Fun? I solve cases I guess, it's all I really have time for. Last time I had fun fun was when Hank and I got wasted and egged Gavin's place. Ah the look on Gavin's face when he came out the door was hilarious. Then I spent the night there" I laugh remembering that night.

Hank was yelling profanities at him as Gavin dragged me into his places, saying that if he touched me in any inappropriate way that he'd cut his hands off.
