AN: Hello! So I recently got into Lie To Me, Oh my Wizard Gods I love it!
Anyway, this plot bunny was in my wonderful head so, here it is.
WARNINGS: OC Warning... Theres no OC/Eli trust me OK? Um... Slash... Kinda? This story doesn't really have "Couples". Maybe an unnamed boyfriend or girlfriend but nothing major. But I say slash cuz there will be a gay person, and I know that some people aren't comfortable with that (To each there own? Even if its stupid and annoying...). But yeah I don't mind because love is love, no matter who you love. Let's see... swearing. Yeah the normal stuff that comes with a T rated FanFic.
Any way for this chapie there's a lot of my OC because she being introduced, in time she'll be a background character, unless you like her. She's her for plot people PLOT!
Disclaimer: I Don't own Lie To Me only the plot and my wonderful OC in the story. ;)
Chapter 1.
"I told you, I don't want your money. Now can you go? I'm at work." The frustrated Eli spoke into his phone.
"Your dead-end job? Come on get a real job already! Man up!" Eli's longest and best friend, Rose.
"I'm hanging up now." Eli stated and shut his old Razor.
He knew Rose would be mad at him, but it didn't bother him. All Eli wanted was for her to stop pushing all her money at him. He knew she had a Fiance now, so he would have to start backing out of her life little by little.
"Loker!" Eli British boss called for him, the signaled him to follow him to his office.
"What do you need Lightman?" Loker asked.
"Later today Reynolds will be bringing in a suspect to the cube, I want you to monitor him with caution. No slip ups."
"OK..." Loker agreed eyeing his boss, "Whats the catch? Why are you so wrapped up with this one?"
"Catch? Loker, do you need me to explain how to do your job, again?" Cal Lightman asked, Eli could see something was wrong with him, but ignored to avoid a fight.
"No, sir." With that Loker walked away to his spot in the analysis room and waited for Ria. Eli began to spin in his chair out of boredom, it seemed like Light decided to hold back any cases from him till after this interrogation.
But why? What was so special? normally he would come to Loker very shortly before the interrogation. What was so different? Well there was only one way for him to find out, and that was to sit and wait like a "Good Boy" he was.
All the sudden Eli's phone began to buzz in his right pocket. He took his phone out and saw it was Rose, Eli considered what would happen if he answered. How would she yell at him? How angry could Rose get?... Stupid question, Rose suffered from anger management issues. When exploded, it was one of the scariest things Eli Loker had ever seen. Only one of through, he had seen true terrors worse than her rage.
So Eli flipped open the phone and innocently said, "Hello?"
"What do you mean 'Hello?'. You hung up on me! And I had more to say!" She yelled, but she wasn't too angry.
Maybe she's at work. Eli pondered. "What else did you have to say besides to quit my 'dead end job'?" Eli asked, a little annoyed himself.
Suddenly after Eli asked Rose, Ria Torres walked into the office wearing her 'professional' face. She looked at Eli puzzled because he was on what seemed as a personal call at work. Something Lightman didn't like the unpaid intern to do.
"Well, the FBI, you know the place I work at, are taking in this guy and taking him into the Lightman group today. So being as amazing as I am, I shall be seeing you at work. Maybe then I can finally talk to your boss about your payroll, so you don't work yourself to death." Rose answered, sounding pretty happy with herself.
"What? Your coming?" Eli asked, almost lost for words. She couldn't... If she did she could seriously go and talk to Lightman. Ah! He was screwed!
Seeing the look of worry on her coworkers face she gave him a gestural glance saying 'whats wrong?'.
"Yes you idiot, that's what I said. Were you ignoring me?" Rose asked, sounding a little edgy.
"Yeah, I was listening. But you can't come here, and you definitely can't talk to Lightman about my pay." Eli said in a serious tone.
"Whatever, see you later." And Rose hung up on him.
Letting out a long sigh Eli put his phone down, and looked up at his co-worker.
"What was that all about?" She asked him.
"My friend, she's crazy and she works at the FBI." Ria nodded showing he had her attention, "Well she's coming here with a guy there busting... and she wants to talk to Lightman about my pay." Eli explained.
"Well maybe she'll get Lightman to give you some pay?" ia tried to comfort her distressed co-worker.
"No," He disagreed "I've known Rose, my friend, for a long time. What she will probably do is give away a lot of personal information knowing her. You know stuff I don't want floating around the office..." Eli said looking away, and covering his face.
Wait, was Eli ashamed of something? Had he done something wrong? That didn't seem like the Eli Loker Ria knew. Except for the one time that got him demoted to unpaid intern. Truly thinking about, Ria didn't know anything about her co workers personal life, but why should she? They were only co-worker, not friends. Although with all they have been through, Ria thought maybe they might be friends...
"Sit him there." Cal Lightman ordered the female FBI agent.
She agreed sitting the suspected pedophile down harshly, and glaring at him.
"Thank you, you maybe go." She nodded and walked out of the room. She walked down into the analysis room where there was a young women waiting with some coffee.
"Thanks for your hard work." She said and gave the agent the coffee. "I'm Ria by the way, Ria Torres." She smiled.
"I'm Roseabella." The FBI agent name Roseabella responded to Ria with a smile.
"So, your Eli's friend?" Ria was straight to the point. If she beat around the bush Roseabella could get suspicious. Looking at her Ria was surprised Eli was "Just friends" with her, she was beautiful. She had long straight black hair, tied up in a pony tail to be professional, stunning gray eyes. Her body was slim and perfectly curved, she was an average height, probably 5 foot 10 inches. Yeah, Eli only had "Friend" feelings for her Ria scoffed.
"Yes, we've been best friends most of our lives." Roseabella stated, "Only friends." She made sure to express.
"Yeah, well Loker doesn't want you to talk to Lightman. And believe me, there is nothing that's going to change Ligthmans opinion about Loker faster than hard work. actually, that's why only Loker is monitoring the pedophile, to try to prove himself back to Lightman."
"Is that what he thinks?" Roseabella looked annoyed "Look I know Eli better than you so look, he messed up yeah I get that. But what I don't get is, he's suffered enough and proved himself enough. Haven't you amazing detectors noticed!? Look at the weight he's lost, or the bags under his eyes!" Ria could see Roseabella was holding back a lot more anger at them. But why?
"I'm going to monitor the cube, while you need to calm down miss." Ria said and walked away. losing weight? Bags under his eyes? How did this go unnoticed? Eli was as happy as usual nothing really changed since his demotion. How had Ria not noticed. Ria then decided it was time to talk to the one of the few people Lightman might listen to.
Gillian Foster.
Marx Campton wasn't giving Lightman much. This was proving to be even more difficult than he thought it would be. He had to continue, those children were counting on him.
"So tell me Marx, where are your friends keeping those kids?" Cal Lightman asked keeping his cool, on the surface.
"Kids?" Marx asked with a smug smile, he knew something, "Why Mr. Lightman, what kids?" He was trying to provoke Lightman.
"These kids." Cal Lightman said as he slides the folder with the pictures of the kids to Marx.
Marx looked at them, it sparked something for him, something Cal wished no human would feel for those innocent children.
"Ah, why I've certainly never seen these kids in my life." Marx responded, he was lying, it was painfully obvious.
Eli watched as Lightman continued to poke at Marx, it was horrible. The guy was good, and that was a really bad thing.
"Hows it going?" A voice asked from behind.
"Wha!?" Eli jumped from his chair, surprised. "You're too quiet Rose."
"What can I say, just makes me, me" She said smiling.
"Sure..." Loker dragged on, sitting back in his chair."He's not giving us any thing we don't already know. He defiantly knows the Kids, that's it."
Rose sighed, this case was getting to long. She had been working on it for months. She knew that she had no choice but to come here after so many dead ends. She never really liked tp cross paths work wise with Eli, but she had no choice. This was a child abduction case, where they got sold. These creeps took the kids and sold them. It made her shiver thinking about it. This had to end soon.
"You alright?" Eli asked concerned.
"No"
"Wanna talk about it?" He pushed.
"This case, its been on too long. It's getting no where, you know what I mean?" Rose asked her best friend.
"I know exactly what you mean." Eli said without looking away from the screen.
"Sorry, didn't mean to make you think about him again." Rose apologized, looking at her best friend.
Eli didn't look at her, he just kept looking at the screen, searching for any lies.
AN: Continue? Yes? No?
