DISCLAIMER: I don't own cold case, the characters, the storylines and whatnot. Wish i did though.
Everyone has a past. Some display theirs overtly, some don't, and try to run as far away from it as possible. These people would rather forget their past and carry on with their lives.
Everyone has secrets. That was the first lesson I learnt in this line of work. People can go their whole lives trying to deny whatever skeletons that lie in their closets. Until one day it all falls apart, the secret's out, and one way or another, their lives change forever.
I've got a past, it wasn't exactly the highlight of my life. It's part of who I am, and it's made me who I am today. I'm not ashamed, or in denial about it, but just like everyone else like me, I'd rather forget it.
I've got secrets. Many secrets. Many which feed into my past. Some I've lost and forgotten about along the way. And others I carry with me everyday of my life.
Every single one of us in this tight-knit homicide squad has a story or two to tell. Lieutenant with his daughter, Will's wife, Nick's family and Scotty's search for the truth about what really happened to Alyssa.
When someone asks me; 'tell us something we don't know about you', I roll my eyes and tell them; 'where do I start?' I could choose from almost a million things.
But when they say 'what's something you've never told anyone else,' there's only one thing that stays in the back of my mind. So I tell them. 'I'm married.'
