Hey guys. Here's more!

After they had left Sarah's flat, Jim had dropped Nick and Catherine off at the motel before heading back to PD. He had some things to go over with Detective Jensen. Catherine had simply nodded, a knowing smile creeping across her face.
As they reached the doors to their rooms, Nick turned to Catherine.
"Hey Boss, feel like trying out that bikini of yours?"
Catherine chuckled at the hopeful expression on his face.
"Tempting offer Nicky but I'll pass. Need to give Linds a ring, make sure she and my mom haven't killed each other yet! Then I think I'm gonna go for a run." She shot him a sly smile. "Why don't you give Sarah a call? I'm sure she'd be more than happy to go for a dip."
Nick spluttered slightly, a blush coloring his cheeks. The strawberry blonde laughed as she opened her door.
"Aww come on Nicky. I can see the spark there. Go for it! Life's too short." She winked at him as she passed through into her room, shutting the door behind her.
After a rather uneventful conversation with the answering machine at her house, Catherine changed into a red tank top and a black pair of running shorts, perching on the edged of the bed to tie the laces on her sneakers. Grabbing her Ipod and room key she exited her room and jogged lightly down the steps to the street. She stretched briefly before pressing play on her Ipod and started a gentle run along the street. As she reached the beach the previous song - 'Single Ladies' by Beyonce - finished, and Catherine couldn't help the small smile that played across her lips as the opening strains of 'Are You Gonna Be My Girl' by Jet coursed through her ears.
She picked up the pace a little, continuing further down the beach than she's managed the other day. She felt a small swell of pride at this realisation. A man walking with a dog caught her eye and smiled as she jogged past. She smiled politely back, though it wasn't until she had passed him that it dawned on her. Oh my God! That was Kevin Costner! She rounded a corner by some rocks with that thought still in her mind.
Suddenly, she felt someone grab her from behind. She struggled and opened her mouth to scream, but a hand containing a cloth clamped roughly down over her mouth, forcing the sound back into her throat. She struggled further, before dizziness began to engulf her. Then the darkness came.
