A/N: Veering away from Shules in this one, but don't worry, there'll be more soon. It's set in the earlier seasons, where Lassie's more grumpy then he is later in the show. Psych not mine.
25: Trouble Lurking
From the moment Carlton woke up, he knew that today was going to be trouble. It just had that kind of feel to it. The weather, which was sunny and perfect, made him want to puke.
Once he got to the station, Lassiter was soon greeted by a perky, "Hi Carlton!" The head detective responded with an unfriendly grunt.
"What's wrong?" his partner asked, "Bad date?"
"I didn't have a date last night." Carlton muttered through gritted teeth. Usually he could tolerate the junior detective, and was even fond of her at some points, but today he just wanted to slap her in her overly cheery face. "Go away, O'Hara."
"Fine!" she snapped, her smile gone. "But just because you're in a bad mood, doesn't mean you have to ruin everyone else's."
After O'Hara stalked off, Carlton made his way to his desk, only to see the last thing in the world that would make his day better: a snow globe. Yep, today was definitely going to be trouble.
