After a long hard day with 2 dead bodies and no murder weapon Lindsay slams her locker shut she needs to do something, anything really to get rid of the image of the two young women out of her head, flashbacks to her own close call come slamming to the front of her mind. She shakes her head riding herself of the memories, "hey, you ok" asked Stella walking into the locker room. Lindsay jumped as she turned "I didn't hear you come in, how long you been stood there", "long enough, to no you need to go home and relax."

"easier said than done, stell" Lindsay said, "look, there's a little greek place I know a few blocks from here and I don't about you but I could do with some food, you interested" Stella asked, "are you buying" Lindsay replied "sure why not, you can buy the next time" Stella said smiling.

"I'm sorry, I guess greek doesn't agree with me" Lindsay said after she‘d thrown up most of the meal in bathroom stall. "that's ok, just lean against me" Stella replied as Lindsay leant her head against Stella's shoulder in the back of the cab.

"how you feeling" Stella gently asked as Lindsay sat down on her couch "a lot better, thanks, sorry for ruining the night". "don't worry about it, so I guess greeks out for next time huh", "I'll tell you what next time I'm cooking you can come round my place, what I can cook, we learnt to do that in Montana you no" Lindsay said after seeing the surprised look on Stella's face. "I'm sorry I'm sure you can, you just don't strike me as the cooking type." "there's a lot you don't know about me stell" "oh really like what."

"drink first, secrets later", "that can be arranged" Stella replied retreating to kitchen to grab a bottle of wine she'd kept for months because she really didn't feel like getting drunk alone.

"ok" Lindsay slurred after her sixth glass of wine, that topped with they'd had at the restaurant made them more than slightly drunk "first kiss, was a guy named Dominic he was 18 and I was 14, we dated for a while but when my parents found they weren't too happy, so what about you." "I was 14, Charlie, we were in the same biology glass at high school, when we graduated we went to different college's and I never saw him again. You no, New York traffic, arrogant cab drivers, people who commit murder I can handle, but men are another story."

"I'm with you there, you no after Danny, well its going to take a long time for me consider dating again", Lindsay said hoping that she'd had enough wine that she was now sober. "hey come on" Stella replied putting her arm around her and kissing her on the top of the head "I'm sure there's someone out there for both of us", "yeah" Lindsay muttered leaning her head on Stella's shoulder.

As Lindsey sat there with her head on Stella's shoulder she could smell the faint aroma of her perfume and that mixed with her shampoo, strawberry she thought plus what they'd drunk was making her head spin, I shouldn't be having these thoughts Lindsey's inner voice said she's straight, Stella's a friend, but as she closed her eye's and as Stella started rubbing her hand up and down her arm, it sent a jolt of electricity straight down her body. But as she turned her head and opened her eye's she saw the heat and passion being reflected back to her in Stella's eyes, Stella leaned over and kissed Lindsey as she took advantage of her shock by Slipping her tongue inside she felt Lindsey kiss back she gently pushed her so that Lindsey was laying down on the couch as she straddled her she Pulled back from the kiss "you sure you want to do this" she asked Breathless as Lindsey put her arms around her neck to pull her back down for another kiss she replied against Stella's lips "shut up and kiss me before I change my mind."

One of Lindsey's hands snaked up Stella's shoulder to rest on her neck, her thumb tracing idle patterns on Stella's skin. As Stella moaned, Lindsey deepened the kiss, tasting the wine they'd drunk and trembling at Stella's touch on her cheek, her hand drifted lower down Stella's back to the top of her jeans as she snuck her hand inside Stella's shirt to feel the smooth skin on her back.

Stella started to bring her hand down Lindsey's side and traced round the outline of her breast then drifted lower to the waistband of her jeans, she untucked her shirt and her hand went back up to Lindsey's breast stopping just underneath, ghosting her fingers along the outline of her bra, Lindsey moaned and arched her back trying to increase the contact, "Stella," she whispered "don't tease". As Stella's fingers pinched a pebbled nipple her mouth dropped down to Lindsey's neck where she kissed her way up to her ear lobe and gently bit down. "Clothes. Off. Now" Stella huskily whispered.

Stella took Lindsey by the hand and led her to the bedroom she turned and took Lindsey's head in he hands and kissed her slow and deliberately, putting all the passion from the last few minutes and pouring it into the kiss as Lindsey's hands undid the buttons on Stella's shirt revealing a smooth slender torso, Lindsey quickly found herself on her back in the middle of the bed with Stella hovering over her, Lindsey put her hands on Stella's waist and dragged her hips down towards her, as Stella kissed and nibbled her way down Lindsey's neck and down to her breast where her bra was quickly disposed as her hands unbuttoned her jeans Lindsey arched her back and moaned as Stella's hand slipped down into the soft damp curls Lindsey's moans got louder as she started to see stars, the nest thing she knew Stella was leaning on her elbow looking down at her "hey welcome back to the land of the living", "how long was I out" Lindsey groaned, "not long, few minutes" Stella replied smiling. "guess we're gunna have to even that out" Lindsey whispered quickly putting Stella on her back and leaning down with a smile that made Stella think it was going to be a long night
