The Sock
Chapter 4: Bob
Disclaimer: I opened a Mork and Mindy lunch box and a genie came out. She said I could have one wish. I wished to own Special Unit 2 so I could put it back on the air. She told me to get a life.
Spoilers: Better read The Yellow Rose
A/N: R&R! I love you guys!
*****************************************************************
When the three arrived back at HQ, Kate was in a foul mood. Bad date, bad link, annoying partner, and an annoying partner who was seeing someone and refused to tell her about it. This day could not get any worse. (A/N: Tempt fate, much?)
But when Kate arrived at her desk, she found a rather pleasant surprise. Sitting there were an envelope and a box. She opened the envelope nervously. Inside was a pretty card. The note read:
"You don't really know me, but I think you're wonderful. Signed, Bob." She didn't know anyone named Bob. She turned her attention to the package. The box itself was lovely. It was covered in a velvety red material, and roses were stitched into it. She smiled and opened the box. Chocolates. Nice ones, too.
"What's that?" Kate jumped. She hadn't noticed Nick behind her.
"I don't know. I mean, it's chocolates, but I don't know who sent them."
"Hmm." He didn't seem terribly intrigued. "Can I have one?"
"No! There my chocolates." She showed him the card. "There from . . .Bob. Whoever that is. Do you know a Bob around here?"
"I think there's a Bob in damage control. Do you think it's him?"
Kate frowned, thinking. "It has to be somebody who works here. This place is well gaurded."
"True. But, it could also be somebody that you know outside of work who got someone here to put it there. Do you know any Bobs around your apartment?"
Kate thought about that for a moment. "I think there's a Bob down the hall. I don't really know him."
"That makes sense. That's what the card said," he pointed out.
"True." A thought occured to Kate. "Wait a minute. That rose I found in the trash. It was right by my desk. Maybe Bob was going to give it to me and then chickened out!"
Nick suddenly became defensive. "'Chickened out' seems a little harsh. Maybe he just thought better of it."
Kate ignored this. "I bet it was Bob who threw it away. I gotta find out who this guy is!" She noticed her partner as though he had just appeared out of thin air. "Will you help me?"
"Yeah, sure."
