Frank Hathaway was not the most astute man when it came to women. He was good at his job, perceptive, liked a pint and as far as he was concerned he tolerated Lou and Sebastian. The three of them muddled through daily life quite happily going from one odd case to another. He shook his head smiling slightly as he thought of the younger woman and the hapless wannabe actor. Sebastian was what his dad would have described as a good lad. He had no idea what his long dead father would have made of Lou Shakespeare. He chuckled to himself as he parked the car outside their office, he very often had no idea what he made of the young blonde with the bright pink scarf. He had a feeling Louella Shakespeare would very probably be the death of him.
"Frank!" He looked up as he exited the car. Sebastian was running towards him. The youngest member of the team was clearly distressed, almost panicked as he collided with him.
"Calm down."
"Never in the history of being told to calm down has anyone actually calmed down." Sensation huffed.
Frank paused as he held the younger man at arms length.
"What on Earth is the matter."
"Lou."
"Why? What's she done?"
"Nothing. She's gone. She's. Gone."
"What do you mean gone? She can't be gone." Frank marched past him into the office. Sebastian ran behind him.
"I'm used to you being a bit you know, unconventional with time keeping but she is always here before me." He stares at his boss. "I called her. No one answered. So I called Sian, the girl next door. She said there was blood on the door handle."
"Facts Sebastian! Them first! Details later. Cmon!" He almost sprinted back to his car knowing that he had to find her. Sebastian wiped his eyes as he jumped in the car next to him. They both knew Lou had a habit of finding trouble. He just hoped that this time trouble hadn't found her.
