Meadow567- You have pregnancy on the brain! LOL And this Feb. 18th thing is going to drive you crazy! LOL
Oddie562- You seem more excited about it than Danny! LOL JK
LizfromItaly- I knew you'd love the Italian. I love writing Danny. He is like the perfect man, sweet and sarcastic, caring but has faults.
BridgetLynn- Or he might be distracted more than ever now! LOL and It's funny you said that about Don……
Jordayna- Some things take time. Trust me, they'll make up for it!
Steely Phil Gordon- The translations are there. Danny always tells her what he's saying unless its something he doesn't want her to know. And there will be Stella just not tons of it.
Emador- I am do glad you liked it. This is got some humor. Hope you like it!
"So what do you have planned with Aurora for tonight?" Flack asked Danny.
It was Halloween and the day had been surprisingly slow, so they were all headed home for the evening. The guys were in the locker room to catch a quick shower before heading out for the evening.
"She loves horror movies so I picked up a bunch. I figured we could sit up and watch a marathon of them." Danny said.
"So how much of the movies do you actually plan on watching?" Flack smirked. "I mean now that you've had sex once you know you'll want to every chance you get."
Danny rolled his eyes. "For the record it was twice. I tackled her to the bed when she got out of the shower the next morning."
"One look at her face and I knew you two finally hopped on the good foot and did the bad deed." Flack laughed. "Well that and the fact that Aiden came giggling and squealing into the station hugging Rora and asking for details."
"I know, Aiden then came to the lab wanting to know where I learned a few things." Danny smiled.
Flack raised an eyebrow. "So how was it?"
"How do you think?" Danny narrowed his eyes.
"Okay I gotta know……is she shaved?" Flack asked, his eyes sparkling with mischief.
Danny chuckled. "Wouldn't you love to know? Let's just say I won't need to floss."
Flack laughed. "I knew it. I mean I could just see her having some…."
"Hey…that' my girlfriend you're fantasizing over." Danny joked.
"Hey, I had a lot of time to look at her and picture things before you two got together." Flack said.
"Yeah and you even got to kiss her at the rave." Danny said.
"And it was so obvious that night how in love you were. You looked like you wanted to punch me. And you fishing for information about what happened inside the rave was about as subtle as bullhorn." Flack laughed.
"You saw how she dressed that night; I thought for sure you'd take advantage of it." Danny said. "The whole time we were outside watching I was fidgety. It was then I started to realize I really needed to do something." Danny smiled.
"You should get her to wear that outfit for you sometime." Flack winked.
"If I went to pick her up and she was in that, we wouldn't get out the door. I'd probably just bend her over the kitchen table." Danny said.
"Damn, I need a date. Can't let you get all the action." Flack said.
"Well ask someone out." Danny said.
"I…..well I will. Of course Vicaro says I should play the sling for all the sympathy I can get. Aurora swears now I have a big cop story to tell ladies complete with scar." Flack said.
"But you'll have to sneak away from your two nurses." Danny said.
"It's not so bad having two gorgeous women fawn all over you." Flack smiled.
"Just remember one of those women is taken. And Aiden is bound to find herself another asshole at any minute. I really wish she'd find herself a nice guy." Danny said.
Flack nodded. "Me too, she deserves it."
Danny shut his locker. "I'm out. I have a pretty little thing to spend he evening curled up with watching 14 straight hours of horror films."
Danny walked out of the locker room and down the hall. Aurora was at her desk finishing up her paper work for the day.
"Ciao bella." Danny said and kissed her. "Ready?"
"Been looking forward to it all day. What all did you get?" Aurora asked and stood up.
"That horror movie with the pro-wrestler that just came out. 'Identity' because I know you love John Cusack. Something about a Pumpkinhead? I'd never heard of it. And 'Children of the Corn'." Danny was listing off movies as they walked towards the door.
"Hold up Denton, Messer." Vicaro caught them walking out. "We got a call."
(FPPOV)
Vicaro, Danny, Stella and me walked up on the crime scene. It was in Yonkers. A body had been left off the highway. The victim was nude, male and young.
"I knew we wouldn't make it through Halloween without a murder." Stella said as she sat down her kit.
"What do we have from the uniformed officers?" I asked Vicaro.
"The body was found by some people riding their bikes along the rode." Vicaro said.
"The body is still warm. He hasn't been dead that long." Danny said.
"Any signs of trauma?" I asked.
"Some kind of wounds on his neck……must be a practical joke; it almost looks like a vampire bite." Danny said.
"Great, we can just go arrest Dracula and call it a night." Vicaro said with sarcasm.
"These wounds don't look bad enough for him to have bled out from them." Danny said.
"Hawkes will have to tell us cause of death." Stella said as she started snapping pictures.
"He'll be glad to know he has to work tonight. He was hitting the clubs for Halloween." I laughed.
Danny was running a light over the body. "I got fluid between his thighs."
"Take a sample and send it to DNA. We'll have Sheldon run a sexual assault kit." Stella said.
"No blood on his hands." Danny said.
"The ground is dry and grassy; no visible footprints." Stella commented.
"Looks like we have to wait on autopsy." I said.
(Morgue)
Danny and I were walking down the hall to the morgue. Hawkes had called us and said he'd finished the autopsy on our highway victim. Flack was looking through missing persons and griping about desk duty. Stella was at DNA going over the swabs Danny had taken off the victim.
"Aurora, I know we had plans for the evening….." Danny started.
"Don't apologize. You can't help that we had a call. Besides, this is the first time work has interfered with plans and it won't be the last." I smiled.
"At least we get to work together." Danny smiled as we walked into the morgue.
"The morgue on Halloween, it's just creepy." I sighed.
"You should've been here the year I hid under one of the white sheets and started moving when Aiden came in." Hawkes laughed.
"I don't think she's quite forgiven you for that." Danny laughed.
"It was almost as funny as Aurora 'angering the demons'!" Sheldon laughed.
"Alright enough, tell us about our DOA." I said.
"Something strange is going on with this guy." Sheldon said. "I estimate time of death at around 8 this evening."
"Can you tell what killed him?" I asked.
"Allergic reaction to something. His esophagus had swelled shut. I analyzed his stomach contents but without knowing his medical history, I can't tell if it was something he ate or not." Sheldon said. "Also there was seminal fluid in his rectum."
"Rape?" I asked.
"Not likely. There was no tearing. Seems he knew the proper way to have anal sex and not cause harm." Sheldon said. "I sent a sample to DNA."
"What about those puncture wounds on his neck?" Danny asked.
"Vampire bite." Sheldon said.
"I know its Halloween but that is not funny." I said.
"I'm serious. He was bitten. I found saliva around the wounds. Sent it off for DNA analysis." Sheldon said.
"But, that doesn't look like teeth, it looks like fangs." I said.
"I'd say it was. Specialty dentists can give you fangs, pointed teeth anything you want." Sheldon said. "Look here."
Sheldon opened the victim's mouth and inside was fangs where his canine teeth should be.
"This is someone's sick idea of a Halloween practical joke." Danny said.
"Can we find out where those fangs came from?" I asked.
"I'll do some research see what model they are and what local dentists specialize in such a thing. In the meantime, I printed him." Sheldon said and handed Danny the card.
"I'll get on it. I'll see what Stella has from DNA." Danny said.
"I'll see if Flack has anything in missing persons. Although if he died tonight I doubt it." I sighed.
(Station)
"Don, if you'd hold still this wouldn't hurt so much." I said.
I had Don in the break room of the station trying to change his bandage.
"The tape pulls on my chest hair." Flack complained.
"Me and Aiden offered to give you a wax." I said.
"Just hurry up." Flack shook his head.
I pulled off the tape and removed the bandage. "It's healing great. You get the rest of your stitches out next week."
"Good because they itch like a son of bitch." Flack said.
"Quit whining. You got my girlfriend nursing you." Danny walked in.
"Fine you get shot and see how you like it." Flack said.
"No, gotta keep my Danny healthy." I said and hugged Danny.
"You two are disgustingly happy. This must be what Claire and Mac looked like back in the day." Flack sighed.
I chuckled. "So what did you need?" I asked Danny as I started putting a new bandage on Flack's shoulder.
"The saliva found on the victim's bite wound and the semen found in on and him match. But no hit in CODIS." Danny said. "His prints weren't in AFIS either."
"So we have a gay vampire, killed by an allergy. And bitten by another vampire." I sighed. "Gotta love this city."
"Think he was bitten during sex?" Flack asked. "It's possible since the saliva and semen are from the same person."
"It's possible. Even for non-vampires biting on the neck during sex is common." I said.
Flack raised his eyebrow. "If either one of you two start wearing turtlenecks for a week at a time……who am I kidding that's gonna happen sooner of later."
"Don, we're getting you a date. Better yet, you get healed a little better and we'll round up Aiden and all go to 80's night!" I said.
"I swear one more 80's night and I'll have big hair." Flack said.
"You love us." Aiden walked in.
"Yeah I do." Flack smiled. "You're my hot nurses."
"Isn't that the porn Pee Wee Herman got caught masturbating while watching?" Danny asked.
"Speaking of porn, Aurora have you found Danny's stash yet?" Aiden giggled and sat next to Flack.
"No she hasn't." Flack said. "Because they hadn't been dating 12 hours when Danny shows up at my door with all his porn. He told me to keep it for him. He didn't want Aurora finding it."
I giggled. "I wouldn't have been upset. I know men have porn."
"Actually I recommend you watch some girl on girl." Aiden said.
"What?" Danny was shocked.
"Girls know what girls like. And lesbian porn is a great place to learn better ways of going down on a girl." Aiden said.
I chuckled. "I went to college with a lesbian couple that said a great way to practice going down on a girl was to eat all the ice cream out of a cone without biting it."
We heard a throat clear turned and saw Mac with his eyebrow raised.
"I don't even want to know. I just came to get some coffee. And I'll go back to my office and pretend I didn't hear that." Mac said.
I felt myself blush but spoke up. "Well you say it's your job to know a little about everything. I just taught you something new."
Mac looked skeptical. I giggled.
"I love you Mac!" I winked.
"And here I thought Danny would need to be the one on a leash!" Mac joked, a rarity for him.
Stella walked in. "Sheldon found a match on the fangs our victim had. A dentist in Queens carries that model and specializes in vampire fangs actually."
"Who would want such a thing?" Aiden asked.
"We'll need a list of his patients that got that model of fangs." I said.
"The dentist will scream patient privacy and not give it." Stella said.
"Flack, call your Subpoenas R Us guy and get us one. We'll talk to the dentist in the morning." I said.
"In the meantime, take a look at some of the gothic underground. There is a movement of those who believe they are vampires in New York City. And these role playing parties are getting more popular." Mac said.
"Yeah, I've heard of that. There was a case in Kentucky where this kid murdered his parents and his girlfriend's parents as part of some vampire role playing thing." I said.
"Well I'll start looking that up. Tomorrow will be interesting." Danny said.
