A/N: Hello all! I want to say thank you again to everyone who is reading and (especially) reviewing this story. Your reviews are all great and greatly appreciated. And now, here is chapter 4! ~S~
"I know, I know, but I came home and the front door was open," said Jo on the other end of the phone.
"Is everything okay?" Luke asked.
"I haven't gone inside. Can you come over?"
Luke looked at Andy sleeping again. "Yeah, I'll be right over."
He got up and changed before going out the front door as quietly as he could.
Andy, who had actually woken up when the phone rang, turned over and stared at the spot Luke had recently vacated. "Where are you going?" she asked into the empty air.
Luke pulled up to Jo's house to find her sitting on the porch. He got out of his car and made his way over to her. "Still outside?"
"I wanted to wait until you got here."
Luke pushed the front door all the way open. "Nothing seems to be out of place." He checked the whole house and found nothing out of the ordinary. Going back into the living room he said, "There are no signs of forced entry. Whoever did this has a key. Who would have a key to your place?"
"No one but me."
"Then someone has a key that you don't know about."
"No it's definitely just me." She was grinning.
Luke was quiet for a while. "Jo did you… Did you set this all up so I would come over at…" he checked his watch. "Five thirty in the morning?"
Jo smiled wider. "Pretty crafty, huh?"
Luke was angry. "Are you crazy? Andy is going to be so upset if she wakes up and I'm not there. Why would you do this?"
"I needed to get you alone," she said coming towards him.
"I have to go, but you and I are going to talk about this. This is highly inappropriate."
"I don't want to talk anymore. I'm done talking." Jo grabbed him and kissed him. "I wish I could take back the day I told you that I wouldn't marry you."
Well you can't. I think about that day all the time Jo."
"I know and I'm sorry." Jo kissed him again and this time he kissed her back.
Andy was ready for work an hour earlier than she had to be. Luke hadn't come home and she hadn't been able to fall back asleep. She had called him twice this morning but both times it went straight to voicemail. Andy was pretty sure she knew where he had snuck off to. She pulled out her phone but this time she dialed Holly's number.
"Can you meet me at the station? I need to talk to you."
"Maybe it's not what it seems." The girls were in the locker room. Andy had told Holly everything including her suspicion.
"It's almost always what it seems."
"At least he hasn't turned out to be a psychotic killer slash stalker slash abuser. Or at least not yet," Holly added with a grin hoping to lighten the mood.
"Oh god, here I am dumping my man issues on you and you have a killer after you."
"Wow, way to make me sound like the defenseless victim."
"No, its just…"
Sam walked in at that moment, cutting Andy off. "You two going to join us for parade?" He was staring right at Andy.
"Yeah, we're coming," Andy said closing her locker and walking towards the door.
"Actually McNally, I need to talk to you for a minute." Seeing their confused faces, he clarified. "That one," he said pointing at Holly.
Andy gave Holly a looked but walked out the door.
Holly crossed her arms. "What?"
"I want to apologize for my behavior last night. I shouldn't have been an ass."
"Apology accepted," she said walking past him.
He spun around. "Whoa, I said I wanted to apologize. I didn't actually do it." He gave her his goofy grin.
Holly laughed. "Whatever, let's go."
Everyone had been sent out on the streets to watch for signs of trouble. Holly had been assigned a desk job, files and paperwork, because Best didn't want her anywhere near Nick.
Luke came over to her desk and coughed to announce his presence.
Holly didn't even have to look up to know who it was. "Luke."
"Holly."
When he didn't say anything else, she looked up at him. "Can I help you with something?"
"Have you talked to Andy today?"
"I have."
"How is she?"
"Shouldn't I be asking you that? You live with her."
"I left early."
"So I heard. Not the best move as a fiancée."
Luke glared at her. "You know?"
She glared right back at him. "Of course I know."
Luke's attention focused on something over her shoulder and Holly turned around to see what it was. Jo had come in and, upon seeing Luke, smiled at him.
"She's pissed you know."
"Who," he asked returning attention to her.
"Andy. She heard the call Luke. What were you thinking?"
"I…"
He was interrupted when a women came in screaming, " Somebody please help me. My daughter is missing."
Holly looked up at Luke. "That's your cue detective."
She could only glare at him as he walked away.
Dov and Chris were partners for the day. They were patrolling the park area closest to the precinct on foot.
"All I'm saying is that she takes one shower and all the hot water is gone."
"Gail has to shower too, Dov. Besides, she payers her part of the rent."
"It's not about the rent. Its about my right to a warm shower every morning."
A scream came from the parking lot and the two officers went running.
A woman was screaming and staring into the trunk of her car. The officers looked inside and found the one thing they were wishing they wouldn't find.
A/N: I hope you enjoyed the chapter. Chapter 5 is already written but I am not posting it until I get 6 reviews for this chapter, so REVIEW! ~S~
