:lol: Yes, I always have to kill the cute ones. It's the golden rule. I killed mental patient Lori, and I killed Teague (But he wasn't very cute) and I killed Riley....I'm starting to feel like a homicidal fic maniac.
Don't Say Anything Tonight If You're Gonna Say Goodbye
4 days later, hospital
Katie: Where is your father?
Lori: At work.
Katie: What's he doing at work?
Lori: ...Working?
Katie: Holly's getting worse.
Lori: I know that. I was in the room when the doctor told us, and put her out.
Katie: Did you call him?
Lori: That's your job.
Katie: Call him.
Lori: Why can't you do it?
Katie: I asked you to do it.
Lori: You didn't ask, you demanded.
Katie: CALL HIM!
Lori: AH! Geez stop yelling in my ear. Why do you need him anyway? You're not even together.
Katie: Just do it.
Lori: *gets out phone, dials*
Lab
Delko: So did Kristin get a lawyer?
Speed: Yeah.
Delko: I never thought she could kill someone.
Speed: We don't know if she did. I still have to test the swabs of her fingernails and Valera has to get the results from DNA.
Cellphone rings
Speed: *opens phone* Yeah it's Speed.
Lori: Mom's screaming at me, so could you come down to the hospital?
Speed: Is everything okay?
Lori: I don't know. She's pacing and yelling and pulling her hair out, and grinding her teeth and climbing all over the doctors for answers a-
Speed: I meant Holly.
Lori: She's getting worse.
Calleigh: *walks in* Hey Horatio wants you in interrogation.
Speed: Uh...Yeah. Okay, Lori listen, I can't break away right now so tell your mom to just...Sit down before she passes out.
Lori: What? You're supposed to get down here.
Speed: I'm sorry. I have to be at work.
Lori: I'm sure Horatio will understand.
Speed: *closes phone* Are they at PD?
Calleigh: Yeah.
Speed: *leaves*
Calleigh: What was that all about?
Delko: Doesn't sound like things are going too well at the hospital. I on the other hand am trying to complete a puzzle.
Calleigh: Puzzle?
Delko: I bought this really cool jigsaw puzzle yesterday.
Calleigh: ...Eric that puzzle has fifty pieces.
Delko: It's really challenging, you should try it.
Interrogation
Speed: *walks in* Who's this?
Horatio: Manager at the lingerie store. We caught him trying to sell some cocaine.
Speed: What does that have to do with the case?
Horatio: The number one buyer on his list is Kristin.
Speed: Okay.
Horatio: *walks over to table* Rafael, we found 100 kilos of cocaine in the storage room at the store.
Rafael: It's not mine.
Speed: You manage the store.
Rafael: Yeah but I'm not in charge of who goes in and out of the storage room.
Speed: So you never go in there or what? Because we found cocaine in there not illegal clothes.
Rafael: There are illegal clothes?
Horatio: Do you know this woman? *puts picture on table*
Rafael: Yeah that's Kristin. We're going out.
Speed: Did you sell her cocaine?
Rafael: No.
Speed: That's not what the list says.
Rafael: It's not a buyers list, it's a list of girlfriends.
Speed: There are men on the paper.
Rafael: So I'm diverse. Look, I didn't sell anyone cocaine and I don't know where it came from.
Horatio: Speed, go to the shop and print the place.
Speed: *looks at Horatio*
Horatio: ...Speed.
Speed: You mind if I take a sidetrip?
Horatio: We need this fast. You don't have time for a sidetrip.
Speed: Will I lose my job if I don't go?
Horatio: No, b-
Speed: Then I need an hour. *leaves*
Horatio: *lifts brow*
Hospital
Speed: *walks over* Where's your mother?
Lori: ...
Speed: Lori.
Lori: ...She's in the room.
Speed: *walks into room*
Katie: *crying*
Speed: *sits down* I'm sorry I couldn't get here fast enough.
Katie: It's okay.
Speed: She's gone?
Katie: *nods*
Speed: *angry sigh*
Katie: They want to do an autopsy.
Speed: What? Why?
Katie: The doctors say that the cancer spread too quickly, and at her age, it would have been impossible for that to happen. They were also looking at her bloodwork and found traces of a substance that shouldn't have been there. They don't know what it is.
Speed: Whatever was in her blood killed her faster.
Katie: The doctors say that if it hadn't been there, she would have had at least six more months.
Speed: They don't know what it is?
Katie: It's going to take a while, they don't exactly have a billion dollar lab.
Speed: *frowns* We do.
Katie: Tim...
Speed: Call Alexx. *leaves*
Katie: *sigh*
