Chapter One:

Jack, Myles and Bobby were heading to New York. Jack leaned back and closed his eyes trying to pay attention to the conversation about the case. But his mind kept drifting back to Sue. She was in New York now and it had been almost a year since she left. They emailed on a regular basis but they have not seen each other in the time since she left. He missed her more than he let on to anyone. Bobby and Myles notice that Jack wasn't paying attention anymore. Bobby made a guess at what was distracting Jack and said,

"When the case is done why don't we go out to dinner with her?"

"Huh." Being completely caught off guard by the comment.

"We'll have dinner and a catch up session and make sure that they are treating our Sue right."

"She's not our Sue anymore Bobby. She left us."

And from the reports he got from his friend Luke in New York, things were not going well for Sue. He didn't want to let his friends in on what he knew. He was afraid that Sue may not want to see them and let them know that she was struggling.

"Well I am curious to see how Ms. Thomas is doing. Her last email to me described the most beautiful painting. To which I hope that Ms. Thomas will be willing to show me."

"Let's just see where this case takes us first. Then we will try to find time to visit."

"Well mate, we better find time. Because if we don't come home with news of Sue; Lucy and Tara will have our heads.

Just then Jack's phone rings in his pocket. He grabs it and sees that it is D. "What's up D?…Ok, no problem. Just catch the next train. We will make all the arrangements."

"What's going on mate?"

"Tara just cracked the code and maybe the reason why Akil was going to New York in such a hurry. Since it is her software, she is not willing to share it with the New York office. This means that Tara and D are heading our way. Don't worry; we will not have to share details of Sue with Lucy second hand because she is coming too."

"Well, well. It seems to me that we may have a reunion of some sort. I just hope that Ms. Thomas is in town and not out causing trouble."

Jack secretly hoped for the same thing too. He was in desperate need of a dose of Sue, to see if his feelings were still alive. And since the rest of the team was coming he didn't think that he would get any time alone with her to see if they were. As the train pulled into Grand Central he began the much needed transition of his thoughts from Sue to the case. She wasn't in DC anymore. She didn't work with them anymore. So now his job had to come first. The sooner they closed the case the better.
