Shane: I didn’t but Charlie did! And I didn’t want to be at the party, I did want to be with Carmen.

Tina: Didn’t look like it to Molly and the hundred of other women in that room. You didn’t want to be at the party, but it looked like you were tired of Carmen. And we want to be acknowledged by our own fiancé’s, not by their managers.

Shane looked to Bette for support who just shrugged her shoulders in defeat.

Shane: It’s not like Carmen didn’t have a million pairs of eyes ogling and drooling over her. Men and women I might include.

Tina: This isn’t a competition of who got more drools. This is for her security.

Shane: I’m not going to blindly go and hook up.

Tina: The old Shane did.

Bette: That was a low blow.

Tina: But it’s the truth.

Shane fell back onto the sofa letting out a loud exasperated sigh.

Shane: How am I going to fix it?

Bette: Something romantic and don’t wait around to do it. She’ll just get more angry.

Shane nodded.

Shane: Any news on Jafffe?

Tina: Nope. We’re still searching.

Shane: Any new cases?

Bette: No, you’re too good for the petty ones. Just oversee the few operations going on.

Shane nodded.

Shane: I’ll be on call then.

Shane went out to get her bike when she saw Molly walking straight towards her.

Molly: Hey.

Shane: Hi, are you here to report something?

Molly: No, just looking for a sexy cop to spend some time with.

Molly said flirtatiously. She linked her arm around Shane’s and dragged Shane along with her into the closest restaurant there was. Shane sat across from Molly with a small smile.

Shane: So you’re here to kidnap me?

Molly: Mark and Charlie suggested I get to know you before the shoot next week.

Shane: Get to know me?

Molly: Yup, get to know you. Get our chemistry going.

Shane: What kind of pictures are we taking this time?

Molly: That’s a secret.

Shane raised an eyebrow, curious. This was the first time she sat down with another woman to have dinner without the gang or Carmen. She looked at Molly carefully for the first time.  She had gorgeous light brown curls and blue sparkling eyes. Her eyes were clear as water and you could fall into them. Molly thought the same about the mysterious green of Shane’s eyes. Cool and relaxing. Shane broke off gazing at Molly.
