Barbara and you have been neighbors since you moved into the apartment next to hers. You've also become close as you work as a cop for her father the commissioner. That doesn't seem to affect the way you treat her though and she likes that about you.

The cherry on top of it is that you both always get home at odd hours and tonight is no exception.. Five in the morning and she's trying to get inside. Five in the morning and your contemplating sleeping on the stairs because the elevator is broken again..

Barbara groans as she realizes she again left her house key somewhere else. Her irritation soon fades as she sees your face arise from the stairs that usual expression of contemplation on you, never fails to make her giggle. She'd pick the door open but maybe she'll just let you do it for her.

"Hey! Welcome home. Late night too?" She asked to get your attention and get you to wake up enough to help her out by picking the door open as you so often do, at this point she should give you a spare key. As you look at her she can already see the disappointment in your eyes the same disappointment that plagues you when something gets in the way of you getting home and passing out in bed, uniform and all.
