Author Note: I wrote all of these at work and haven't had time to really go back over it and check it for mistakes. I wanted to get this out before the new episode Sunday. So there probably are grammar or spelling mistakes. As always I don't own TDBM.

Title: Jealousy
Part 1/8
"I heard Matthew is staying with you." Alice tried to sound casual.
"Mmm." Came Lucien's reply as he inspected the body on the morgue table.
"Isn't that weird?" Lucien looked up at her with clueless expression. "I mean the Police Surgeon and the chief of police living together. Not to mention Davis lives there also."
"I don't find it weird." He bent back down to examine the body. "Actually it's quite convenient. While the four of us eat dinner, we also bounce ideas and theories around."
"Surely Jean doesn't appreciate such talk at dinner?"
"Jean knows what she signed up for by agreeing to marry me." Lucien grinned at Alice. "Beside she enjoys it."
Their talked ended as Lucien pointed out bruising on the body. Alice though couldn't shake the feeling of Jealousy. She knew she was being ridiculous but she couldn't help imagining Jean dotting on Matthew. Her soft smile as she served him dinner or helped him out with something. She even felt jealous over the time Lucien would have to be able to talk cases with him.
Alice knew she was being silly and tried to turn her attention back to the dead body on the table.
