I can't believe I was so right about her character
Emeril x MC: Detective
Genre: Fluff, Comedy
“I’m home Sweetheart!” I don’t even have enough time to put down the things I’ve bought, until Emeril runs towards me and puts me in a tight hug. “Hey, I was only gone dfor a couple hours!” I’m laughing and give her a soft kiss. “But do you have it?” she says with a glimmer of excitement in her eyes. “Ok ok, but you need to let me go first!” I search through my bags until I find the new detective novel from her favorite author. “Be honest, you only love me because I buy books for you.” Emeril seems to think about it seriously, than her usual bright smile lights up in her face again. “No, still love you more than books!” I can’t help but give her another kiss. After I convinced my girlfriend to help with the food first, we both settle in the living room and take a look into the book. For a while we just sit together in comfortable silence, only to binterrupted by the sound of rustling paper.
It was a peaceful moment, until a horrible scream resonates through the house. We both jump on our feet and give each other a panicked look. “This came from the neighbours!” Emeril calls and and in the next second she is already running towarts the front door. I follow her quickly, but as soon as we are standing in front of the neighbours house, she stops suddenly. “Let us search for a window first, the killer might be still here.” I want to say that we should call the police first, but Emeril is already on her way into the garden. This girl reads way too much detective novels… “Something here smells strange…” Emeril notices and peeks through the window. “And there is blood!” Now I start to become seriously worried and also take a look into the room. “You’re sure this is blood? It looks kinda strange…” “Somebody is coming! Get down!” In a matter of a second we both hide behind the wall, my heart beating like crazy. “You really think somebody has killed the neighbour?” “Pretty sure. It’s always like this in the novels.” I sight and try to take another look into the room that looks like a kitchen.
Somebody seems to clean the possible blood from the floor, but I can’t see the face of the person without revealing myself. “When we are fast enough, we could overpower them.” “Are you totally crazy now? We need to call the police!”, I’m whispering shocked, but my girlfriend just shakes her head. “They could use the time to run away. We need to act now while they is still distracted.” Magic sparkles from her fingertips and she winks at me. “Also, you should know that I’m more powerful than I look like.” With a snap of her fingers, Emeril unlocks the window and it opens silently. We shortly nod at each other, then we both jump into the room and tackle the criminal to the floor. “Don’t try to run away, we know what you have don- Mx. Snowwing?!” Emeril looks shocked into the face of her neighbour. “You’re alive!” “Why shouldn’t I be alive?” they ask confused and sits up, after Emeril let’s them go. “But we heard the scream…and all this blood…we thought you were murdered!” she tries to explain, but Mx. Snowwing just laughs. “Girls, that’s only tomato soup. The cat has pushed it from the kitchen counter and it spilled all over my clothes, that’s why I screamed” “So nobody was threating you?” Emeril almost seems disappointed. “You could arrest the cat, when you’re so eager to take down a criminal.”, they say and points in the corner, where the pet seems to be very pleasant with herself. “Or you could just help me to clean this mess up.” Emeril sights, but I take the duster grateful. “That was enough excitement for one day.”
