She was in her brand new car on a look out at the crest of cliff over the ocean on the Pacific Coast Highway. It was a beautiful day. The ocean looked majestic and on the outside she had everything that should make her a happy woman. She had money, friends, a wonderful job, a nice place to live and a supportive family. Why then did she feel that if a wave came up and swallowed her whole she would accept that fate with out complaint?

The officer sat on her motorcycle watching the blonde in the brand new Mercedes sports car. It wasn't that the young woman had done anything wrong. She just looked so lost that the officer felt a strong feeling touch her own heart. It was an emotion she was unfamiliar with and it confused the hell out of her. She would keep a close eye on the pretty lost soul.

** ** ** **

The girl wasn't going to do anything foolish. She had a life. It was just that she felt so alone most of the time. She felt like she was taking up some space that could be filled by a more useful soul.

Suddenly there was a light tapping on her window that made her jump. She looked up to see a police helmet and the customary glasses of a motorcycle cop. She rolled down her window and smiled.

"Yes, Officer?"

The officer removed her glasses and gazed at the young woman with the most beautiful blue eyes that the woman had ever seen. Those eyes reflected concern and compassion which astonished the young woman.

"Are you all right, Miss?"

The officer was taken back by the sudden smile, And once the young woman's eyes met hers she felt like she caught in a trap that she never wanted to be released from.

"Um...Yes,I...guess so. I was just thinking."

The officer smiled sweetly and said; "An hour and a half is long time to think, Miss. You looked kind of lost...I....can I help?"

The young woman suddenly felt tears fall from her sea green eyes, " I ...I'm....so....sorry...."

The door was suddenly opened and though she knew that she shouldn't take this action, The officer followed her heart and embraced the distraught young woman. She held her close and stroked her hair as she gently reassured the young woman.

For some reason the young woman felt very comforted and at home in the officers arms. Slowly she got a hold of herself and pulled back slightly but she stayed in the comforting embrace.

"I'm sorry....I shouldn't burden a stranger."

"Hey, Its ok...I feel...This is going to sound really weird, I don't even know your name but I feel... a connection and I just have to help you."

The officer dropped her head suddenly afraid of what she would see in those beautiful green eyes. She heard the stunned intake of breath, so she gently pulled away even though her heart wanted stay right where she was.

Surprisingly strong little arms were around her holding her in place. Then she felt her head being drawn up by tiny fingers.

"Thank you. I feel that...a connection too....I...Its exactly what I was thinking about."

"What was?"

"I have everything but someone to share my life with....I felt alone and I wondered if I should even be here..."

"Yes....Oh God, Yes you should. Your ....the one."

Blue and green eyes met in understanding. Tiny smiles started to spread on there faces in enlightenment.

"My name is Cory." Said the small blonde with a wider smile and suddenly sparkling sea green eyes.

"My name is Amelia,"Said the officer with a matching smile and glowing sky blue eyes.

"Um...Could you have breakfast?"

Amelia nodded her head, "Yes, I just need to call in and tell them I'm going to eat."

"Where would you like to go?"

"Anywhere, as long as it's with you." Said Amelia as she took off her helmet and a pony tail with raven black hair tumbled over her shoulder.

"God, You're so beautiful." She said staring at the tall amazon now standing smiling beside her car. Amelia had just pulled her hair out of its pony tail holder and she stood there with long hair blowing in the breeze resembling a Goddess from the books of mythology that Cory gobbled up as a child.

"So are you,"Said Amelia as she winked at the beautiful blonde and strode across the lot to her motorcycle. She called in saying she was going on a breakfast break and then locked up her motorcycle, locking the helmet to it spot on the bike.

She walked over to Cory's car and stood by the passenger side. Cory unlocked it and smiled as the tall beauty slid in to sit beside her. Cory started the car and drove them toward their future together.

The End
