A/N This started out to be just this one scene. I tied this scene into a story idea I have had for the past couple months but had no idea how to make it work. Thanks to the push I got I found out how to make that story idea work in collaboration with this scene. :)
My apologies if any part of the story that follows offends anyone it is not intended to. The words that are in quotation marks within sentences are supposed to be actual prison jargon/slang that I found on a website. Thanks to Briroch for checking this story over for me.

Hell Froze Over
The argument could be heard all the way down two floors below. There was no mistaking who the combatants were. What was so surprising to all that could hear was the furor of the shouting. Lieutenant Mike Stone and Inspector Steve Keller were as close as father and son, as well as best friends and partners.
From what the other detectives in homicide squad could see both were very red in the face and both were at each other's throats. Mike had jumped all over Steve for his mistake in a report, which he had typed after 45 hours of no sleep. Steve was fed up with the temper of his partner which had been brewing for an overboil for almost a week. Nothing he had said had helped to calm his partner or to get him to tell him what the problem was, although he knew part of the problem he did not know the rest of the story. He knew Mike knew how long he had been without sleep as he had been without sleep the same amount of time. What Steve did not realize was Mike was upset over something much more than a typing error and right then he was too tired and angry to find out what the problem really was but he was soon to find out.
"You are just as muleheaded as Jeannie! I have had it with both of you, for now just keep your distance!" Mike exclaimed in a heated tone of voice.
"Mike..." Steve spoke softly trying to pacify the older man.
"Go to hell, Keller!" Mike snapped enraged.
To say that Steve was extremely shocked was an understatement. His eyes followed his mentor as he stormed out. His feet however stayed planted in place as his heart felt very heavy and his mind told him it was best to just leave Mike Stone alone right now. He hoped that they would straighten this out later. Whatever this was...
