Chris startled awake and dropped her keys. She retrieved them from the floor of her car and frowned into the night. She had parked in her building’s lot, but she didn’t remember doing it or even driving home. She must be more tired than she’d thought. She climbed out of the car and locked up, but before she could head inside to find her bed, she noticed someone standing on the far side of the lot watching her. Her hand wandered to the small of her back and her backup weapon, but the guy wasn’t doing anything wrong. Maybe he was waiting for the bus. The stop was right around there.

She watched him watching her, but he did nothing else. He was a big guy, and heavily muscled. He must spend a lot of time working out. She liked the look, but could never find the time herself. Her caseload was always too heavy for gym time. She used to work out, and back in the day she’d done some kick-boxing at the academy, but she hadn’t done any since gaining her gold shield. She just couldn’t find the time any more. She sucked in her gut, but scowled when she realised what she was doing. She let it out again, wondering why she cared what he thought.

Just then, a car pulled up and he walked away from her toward it. He had a great butt. She watched him climb into the car a little regretfully, and turned toward her building and the empty apartment and bed it contained.
