Prompt Number/Prompt: 009. Lie
Character/Fandom: Kaile Maka // CSI: New York
Word Count: 347
Rating: T
Warning(s): None
Summary: It quickly became the stuff of legends.
A/N: I swear, I do write Maka without Danny. These prompts just sort of lend themselves to my Danny/Maka muse apparently. ^^



LIE: They knew each other growing up.

She met Danny for the first time at Don's birthday party.

LIE: It was love at first sight.

He introduced them to each other as Messer and Maka. She didn't bother to find out his first name until two weeks later.

LIE: They hated each other at first.

For their first case, they were nothing but polite to each other. During their second case together, Danny watched her break a suspect during interrogation without ever raising her voice. He knew he was falling for her.

LIE: She broke up with him.

She walked into her apartment. She noticed her bedroom door was open, when she knew she'd closed it. She pulled out her gun, creeping forward.

She fired one shot.

LIE: He broke up with her.

He ducked. Luckily.

Her landlord had let him in, and on his way out Danny read the man the riot act. In a month, Kaile had moved out of his life and the building…minus her security deposit, which went to repairing the hole she'd blasted in the wall. Instead of surprising her with dinner, he walked home alone, and the magic faded just like that.

TRUTH: They were happy together.

It was a week after they started going out 'officially' and a week before they would break up. It barely felt like they had done anything. They went from politeness to talking to teasing to flirting to dinner to drinks to her apartment, and it had all just felt so natural.

They were lying on her bed, half-asleep even though it was past two. It was too warm to get comfortable enough to actually drift off. She rolled over onto his arm, and he curled it up, pulling her closer.

"Leggo," she muttered, not at all trying to get away. "Hot."

"Ne'er," he mumbled. "Love ya, Kaile."

She's pretty sure that's not what he meant to say, what with the way his breath hitches slightly, but for her part, she only hesitated for a second.

"Love you too, Danny."
