Melinda Eileen Warner looked up at the clock in her office.
3:30 P.M.
She sighed, desperately wishing it was 8 P.M. She had a date with Olivia tonight. She returned to work, finishing up the report on the Andrea Smith autopsy.
Despite seeing dead bodies day in and day out, Melinda loved her job. She helped detectives find information that, often times, helped them convict a perp. This, however, put serious strain on her marriage and eventually led to a divorce three years ago. She had been seeing Olivia for the past year and a half.
When they first got together, they kept things quiet for fear of IAB firing one of them. Technically, though, IAB couldn't do anything about it. She and Olivia worked in two different departments. Hell, they worked in two different fields. Melinda smiled. She loved the fact they didn't have to hide their relationship anymore.
----
Olivia LeAnn Benson was finishing up the last of her paperwork. She and Elliot had been doing nothing but paperwork all day, and Olivia wanted nothing more than for it to be 8 P.M. The only time she had the chance to see Melinda at work was when there was a dead body on one of their cases, and although Olivia was glad there was at least one less dead person, she desperately wished she had some reason to go see her anyway. She looked at the clock.
4:00 P.M.
Olivia sighed and continued her paperwork.
----
Finally it's 7:30! Melinda thought, smiling. She finished up her make-up and got into her car. She was picking up Olivia at her apartment.
----
-Knock-Knock-
Melinda's here! Olivia thought, happily. She grabbed her purse and answered the door.
"Hey, Beautiful." Melinda said.
"Hey." Olivia said, kissing Melinda gently.
"Ready to go?" Melinda asked.
"Always."
----
The resteraunt was an elequent little Italian place just down the street from the precint. Melinda chose this particular resteraunt because she knew Olivia had been wanting to come to it for some time.
As they walked in, Olivia couldn't stop looking at all the murals of Italian places and landmarks. Olivia felt as if they stepped out of New York and into Rome. They were shown their seats and they ordered their dinner. Melinda couldn't help but smile at how happy Olivia was. She could stare at those chocolate pools untill time stood still. Olivia took Melinda's hand.
"Thank you so much. I can't believe you brought me here."
"Anything for you, Sweetheart." Melinda said smiling. "I like seeing you so happy." She kissed Olivia's hand. Olivia blushed.
----
After dinner, Melinda drove Olivia home. She hated to leave her, but her daughter needed her to be at home. She kissed Olivia gently on the lips and told her goodnight. Melinda could still feel Olivia's kiss, even as she drove up to her house. As she walked up the path to her door, she heard something behind her, but she didn't get a chance to see what it was before something hit her head and all went black.

What do you all think? I know it is kinda short. Everytime I write a story, the first chapter is short. I don't know exactly why, but I think maybe it's cuz the first chapter is more of an introduction.
Anyway, if you read, please leave a review. Good or Not so Good.
