Note: Hi hi, here's chapter 11! The next chapter will be up soon, and will be a little more case-related again. Let me know what you think of it! x.
11.
Catherine woke up very early the next morning. She found Gil lying close to her, what made her smile. These couple of days hadn't been the first couple of days that the two of them woke up together, and Catherine always had to admit that he looked cute when he slept. Even though he still had that puzzled look on his face that he always had. Catherine looked at her alarm clock, that stated that it was just five in the morning. As quiet as she could, she stepped out of the bed and turned off the alarm clock. Gil always woke up when the alarm went off, and she figured he'd like to wake up without the buzzing sound of the alarm clock for once. Catherine took a quick shower and put on her make-up and clothes, and decided to take a little walk around town before breakfast and work. It was only six in the morning when she softly closed the front door of her house and stood outside, where the sun was shining weakly. She was thinking of texting Dusty. She missed him so badly, and all she really wanted, were his hands over her body and his lips touching hers. She figured he'd still be asleep now though, and decided to just enjoy the early morning.
At five that morning, Meg lied in bed next top Paul with her eyes wide open. She hadn't been able to catch her sleep all night. After Paul's vision the evening before, she'd been thinking the entire night. At first, he didn't want to tell her what was going on in his vision, but after a while, he told her what he'd seen. Both couldn't possibly know what it meant, but Meg was scared of what it could possibly mean. She was afraid it meant Paul would get killed, or get involved in some kind of shooting. Meg was scared. She hated these visions Paul had, but at the same time, she wondered what it meant. Why was Paul getting warnings about all these kind of things? What did it mean? That was the question that had kept her busy the entire night.
Catherine arrived at the station that morning at eight sharp. Gil had still been asleep when she came home from her walk, and after she'd fixed herself a simple breakfast, it had been time to go to work. When she entered the station, she figured she could send Dusty a quick message. Wanna meet during lunchtime? Lakeview, 13.00h? x. After that, she put her cell phone in her purse and sat down behind her desk. After she'd put on her computer, one of the officers walked up to her and said: "Margo asked me to give these files to you." Catherine smiled and said: "Thank you." It was a whole bunch of paperwork she'd been given, and she was curious to find what was in there. After a couple of minutes, Catherine had pretty much figured out that the first couple of files had been completely useless. There was one file though that grabbed her attention. It had been sent for the crime lab in Las Vegas, containing several knew facts about the killer. Apparently, the video camera on the corner of the street, had some stuff they could use. Not from the murder itself, but from several days earlier. Apparently, their victim had been on the place she'd been murdered a couple of times before she'd been killed. Perhaps, there was something on it they could use. The fax from Vegas said there would be a tape brought to the Oakdale department that same day, that had the films on it that they could possibly use.
Gil woke up late that morning. He was a little disappointed when he saw the bed next to him was empty. After his breakfast, he decided to take a look around town. He figured that perhaps there would be some interesting things to see, and he figured he could stop bye the police station around lunch time, to meet Catherine for lunch. When he arrived at the station though, he saw Catherine's desk was empty. He did spot Jack though, who saw him as well. "Hey, Gil, what's going on?" Gil shrugged a little and said: "Nothing, just wanted to meet Cath for lunch." Jack nodded and said: "I see. Well, she just left. But I need to talk to you, so it's a good thing you're here. Follow me." Jack took Gil to a separated room, and Gil wondered what was going on. He couldn't help but feel bad though, that Catherine was already gone. He wondered where she was. As soon as Jack closed the door, he said: "So, we received some files from Las Vegas yesterday. Catherine has been reading them this morning, and there was one thing in it that was particularly interesting. There are a couple of films, made bye a video camera on the corner. I suggest you read the file. The tape will be delivered this afternoon, and Margo and I will take a look at it then. I want Catherine to take it home, so the two of you can watch it together. I can count on the two of you being discrete with it, can't I?" Gil nodded while he ran through the file and said: "Absolutely."
Catherine rushed into the Lakeview. She was a little late, and she didn't like that. She was only having a one hour break, and an hour seemed so short when she was with Dusty. He'd texted her back that morning. It was –as usual,- a short message, asking her to come to his suite instead of the lounge. And who was Catherine to object to meeting him in a suite? When she knocked on his door, she heard Dusty yell: "Just a second." It took him a while to open the door, something that annoyed Catherine. She hated waiting. When he opened the door, he grabbed her arm immediately and pulled her into his room, where he greeted her with a passionate kiss. When he broke the kiss, Catherine simply said: "Hmmm.. I'd wait more often if that's what I get." Dusty gave her a sly smile and said: "I bet you would." Catherine threw her purse on the couch when she spotted the room service Dusty had ordered. "And what are we having for lunch?" Dusty stepped closer to her and started kissing her lips, nose and forehead. When he reached her ears he whispered: "First, we'll do a little more of this." He softly bit in her ear and kissed her, and then continued. "And then, there's a little surprise for you waiting." Catherine caught herself giggling and whispered: "I'm curious." She kissed him hard on his lips, and when she felt his hands reaching for the button's of her blouse, she softly stirred him towards the bed.
Note: Liked it, hated? Next chapter will be more Cath/Gil bonding! Please let me know what you think of this one though! x.
