CaRWash RP

Calleigh exited the ladies room and saw Ryan talking to Natalia again. Her stomach turned, she didn't know how much longer she could go on like this. She walked right up to them.

"Ryan, we need to talk." She said, giving Natalia a: "that-means-you-have-to-leave-us-alone" look. Natalia walked away. "Ryan...what's going on? Between us? It looks like we're avoiding each other, I...I miss you. I miss talking to you, working with you. What is the problem with us?"
 
He crosses his arms," I'm not advoiding you, are you advoiding me? Of course not, we're just on different cases and we're busy with them." He feels his stomach flipping around, his heart is racing just as fast as his mind is." So how's your case going? Do you need any help?" He says with a forced smile.
 
Calleigh sees the fake smile on her face and her heart sinks. She really missed him.

"I'm not avoiding you, at least not intentionally. My case is going okay, though I thought you would help me with it, and instead I got some guy from nightshift who's annoying me to death." She smiles.

"I meant it Ryan, I miss you. It seems like since I'm...dating Josh, you won't come anywhere near me."

The alarm bells in her head started to ring as she finally realized what she was saying. Josh. He was the problem. Ryan didn't like Josh. "Hey Cal?!" Someone called. She turned around. A nightshift detective looked at her.

"That's the one." She told Ryan. "And I didn't even tell him to call me Cal, it's the first thing he said to me. He's a respectless asshole. But what can a girl do?" She shrugged. "Gotta go. Will we talk later? Maybe grab some dinner...oh no wait, I'm going out with Josh. Breakfast tomorrow then?"
 
Ryan was listening to everything she was saying, clinging to every beautiful word coming out of her mouth. Is he really hearing her say she's missing him? Like she misses being with him? Oh then she brings up HIM.

He thinks in his head," um yeah Cal I don't like him."

Ryan sees a detective coming towards them," don't be silly, I'm not advoiding just because your dating someone, it's just I'm being overloaded with work, you know how it is."

The detective calls her name, Cal at that, and she tells him she has to go and they'll have dinner, no breakfast, of course no dinner because she's too busy with HIM.

He shakes his head with his fakest smile ever," sure breakfast sounds great. We'll talk then."

She walks away and he watches her till she's out of sight.
 
Natalia walked over to Ryan after Calleigh had lefted. She heard everything they said. She was working for the FEDs after all. She could see the pain in his eyes. He longed for her but couldn't have her. "We really need to work on our case. Want to go to the breakroom and look over notes?" He nodded slowly and followed her. They sat down and reviewed their notes on the crime scene where they found the gun. "I know this probably isn't the time to ask but... Do you know how Horatio did in Brazil? I mean, did they find the Mala Noches?" She could barely ask because she knew whatever he told her, she would have to report it to the FEDs. She held her breathe and hoped he didn't know, or atleast wouldn't tell her.
 
In the breakroom Ryan looks over all the evidence carefully. Getting this case over with as quickly as he can is his hope. Then out of the blue she asks about what happen with H when he was over in Brazil.He thinks in his head," this is a strange conversation to have, but she seems nervous like she doesn't know what else to talk about."

He grabs another folder," I haven't heard anything more about it. Last thing I heard was H had some big leads but nothing for sure. That's why he came back here so quickly."

He was telling her this not even thinking about her being a mole, then it hits him. Should he really trust her with anything? He wanted to, she seemed sincerely sorry for being the mole and she didn't tell them anything bad against the lab. But still she had lied to him and he even felt like she used him. Like that was the only reason she went out with him in the first place. He just knew he couldn't take a chance of saying something wrong.

He stops talking and looks down thinking," could she still be working with the FEDS? Surely she wouldn't be still, would she?"

He closes the folder in his hand," um I'm sorry but..... I have to go. I'm meeting someone to........um I have to go. We'll get a fresh early start tomorrow on this. I'll take all this with me and look it over at home. If I find anything I'll call you." He gathers up everything and heads out of the breakroom.
 
Ryan didn't tell Natalia how Horatio did, but he did race out of the room when they really needed to work on their case. Natalalia exhaled, was it too soon for her to be asking those questions? Could she still be the mole? Yes. The FEDs were getting anxious. She couldn't get any info from him, and she had wasted so much time trying to get close to him. She knew she would have to wait a while until she could ask another Horatio realated question, and now she would have to tell the FEDs that. She reluctanly made her way to the washroom...
 
[Well TheCoroner, let's give Alexx something to do then, shall we?]

Calleigh walking into the morgue. She had succeeded in dumping the night shift detective. Alexx was bowing over a body. "Hi Alexx. Just came by to see how you're doing. Oh who am I kidding, I came by to talk." She sat down on a table. "I don't know, lately I feel like...well empty. And I don't know what's the problem."
 
[YES I LOVE YOU NIKKI!!! MUAH!!]

Calleigh walked in catching Alexx by surprise. "Hi Alexx. Just came by to see how you're doing. Oh who am I kidding, I came by to talk." She sat down on a table. "I don't know, lately I feel like...well empty. And I don't know what's the problem." "oh here baby lets got sit where it's a little more comfortable." Alexx led Calleigh into her office where she had been putting out fires all day and started with the same thing she said to Ryan. "ok, now start from the top, and remeber this is just between you and me." Calleigh eyed her suspiciously. "Baby who do i have to tell." she glanced around at the gurneys that supplied a white sheet covering what used to be a high school cheerleader. The only thing Calleigh could see of the corpse were two finely pedicured feet peering from under the sheet as if to come out just for this conversation. Where a shiny toe ring one gleamed there now hung a creme colored toe tag. "It doesn't get any easier." Alexx sighed. "Now as they say, 'let's start from the very beginning'" Alexx folded her coffee colored hands on her shiny metal desk and looked at Calleigh in anticipation.

[ah thanks that felt good!!]
 
(no problem, but uh...now I'm stuck. Let me try something)

"Okay Alexx, but only on condition that nothing leaves this office. Well, except for the body." She smiled. "It's Josh. You met him, right? He's really sweet, and he...I feel good when he's around. But...he's away quite often, sometimes he doesn't call for three days or something, and when I ask him where he's been, he says: patrol stuff. I don't know what he means. I'm just...scared, I guess. Scared I'm gonna get hurt again. And if there's anything I don't want, it's to get hurt again."
 
[hey sorry i tried to get on earlier but it was already under construction]

Alexx reached across the desk and gave Calleigh's arm a squeeze. "Oh baby. You just have to look inside. Do you see yourself going anywhere with him?" Calleigh looked at her curiously, "how do you mean?" "I mean, when he walks in the room do you feel your heart beat just a little bit faster? When he says your name do you get goosebumps? And when you kiss him do you feel like he's the last person you will ever kiss? See baby, you just have to listen to your heart. I'll tell you what to do." Calleigh just sighed...

[ok Dutchie... that's as far as i can go without turning into calleigh... you got some thinkin to do... ;)]"
 
"Okay Alexx, thank you. It'll be fine, I just had to talk to someone. I'll see you later, it's late anyway. I'll go see if there's someone still in the lab. Bye Alexx." Calleigh stood up and walked out, back into the lab.

[now I need someone else to talk to]
 
OK everyone our carwash is dying, come on lazy butts lets get the fire going again. Here's my part. Now I'll need some help...Delko? Valera? Boa? Someone?


Ryan gets home from his night out with his old buddy from patrol. What Marc Jones has told him has his mind racing so fast, too fast to even comprehend. Could he be right? Could there be bad cops in the department? He didn’t want to believe him but what he had told him made it seem possible. Then he thinks over the names of the cops and can’t believe the one, the one name he knew and knew too well, Josh. He didn’t know what Josh’s last name was, he didn’t want to know it, but his buddy described him perfectly and he had no doubt it was him.

“What the hell am I going to do? Should I tell Calleigh? Maybe she knows, maybe she’s involved. NO, no way. Don’t even think that.” He plops down on his couch,” I need to tell somebody, this is way too much for me to handle on my own.”

He lays his head back thinking about it and making his plans. He drifts off to sleep but wakes up in the middle of the night from a dream, a terrible dream of Calleigh being hurt by Josh.
He looks at his clock,” damn almost 4 am, I need some more sleep.” He goes up and climbs into his bed, but lies for an hour remembering his dream, fearing it could come true.
