AN- This has been playing round my head for a while and I had to get it out. Not sure if I should leave it as a short piece or continue it. What do you all think? Reviews and options/opinions appreciated.


Meredith Brody was yet again being dragged into the same old conversation. Why she let herself be drawn back in to it she didn't know but she did. Looking at her partner Chris LaSalle she worked out why she kept being dragged back in to it, between that smile that made his dimples appear and that amazing accent of his she knew she would be having this conversation again.

"So where is it and what is it?" LaSalle's laughter present in his voice.

"Still not telling you, after nearly a month I would have thought you have would given up by now" Brody replied.

"Told you I ain't given up till you tell me even if it takes me another month or 12 months I will find out" LaSalle told her as he came and stood right behind her.

"Good luck with that one then, unless by some small miracle you see me naked then you are not going to find out" Brody retorted then realised her mistake.

"Is that an invitation?' LaSalle said with a huge grin on his face.

"In your dreams Chris, in your dreams" Brody shook her head, she had asked for that one.

Chris step forward and pushed himself against Brody's back. Leaning so his head was resting on the edge of Brody's shoulder he whispered so only she could hear him.

"Never underestimate my investigation skills, I will find out" then he stepped away and went back to his desk.

Brody just stood and watch him walk away. She had to admit that this was fun, the comfortable banter she slipped in to with her partner was nice. She tried to keep the world at arm's length but it was nice to have someone to just mess around with even if it was your very cute and sexy partner. Sitting back at her desk she looked over at LaSalle who was now working away on his computer. She wondered how long it would take him before he started again about just where that tattoo was and what is was.
