A/N: hey everyone! Thanks for all the reviews as always. I wrote this

chapter is probably a bit longer than the last one . . . but I dunno.... ok

************************************************
Mary and Wilson sat silently on the hood of the car for about 5 minutes, wondering what had happened inside that house, and if whoever broke the window was still inside. Suddenly two police cars sped around the corner, flew past Mary and Wilson and stopped about five houses down. Two officers jumped out of one of the vehicles and pointed their guns at the house.
"Come out with your hands in the air!" one of the cops yelled into a megaphone.
A few minutes later two men, one bald the other bleach blonde long, stringy hair emerged from the house with their hands in the air. The police apprehended the men and threw them in separate cars. Two of the officers went into the house guns still drawn to check everything out of the house.
Mary sighed with relief at all of this. But she still wondered if there were more, and if they were in her house. Wilson squeezed Mary's hand; she nodded and hopped off the car heading for the other house. Her heels were killing her feet so she slipped them off and swung them in her hands as she walked up to the officer who was leaning against his squad car.
"Excuse me . . ." Mary started
"Ma'am there is nothing to see here, please return to your home"
"No, I called your station a few minutes ago, they told me you had already been called to our street. I think my house was broken into also."
The officer mumbled a few curses under his breath, and looked at the other policeman who was outside. "Johnson, this lady's house was busted into also, I'll go check it out"
Johnson noticed his aggravated tone and decided he'd save this woman a lot of trouble, "No it's ok, you stay here with these punks and I'll check it out" he smiled at Mary, he was an older man with a warm smile. "Now which house is yours?"
***
Officer Johnson had searched the house and no one was left inside. He told Mary and Wilson to write down anything they thought was missing and they could come claim it at the station, but so far everything in those guy's van was evidence.
When Mary and Wilson had stepped over the broken glass and into their house they were just in shock. The cabinet the TV was in was overturned, and of course there was no TV in it. Most of the drawers in the kitchen were taken out and strewn about the counter and floor. Billy's gaming system was gone, but surprisingly all of his games were still there. "I guess his games really are bad" Mary half-laughed, but it was hard to feel any emotion. They were both just trying to sort out in their minds what had happened exactly.
"Well I guess we should get started cleaning huh?" Wilson shrugged.
"I'll go change," Mary said walking slowly down the dark hallway. When she flipped on the light in her bedroom she groaned. Every dresser drawer was out of the dressed and overturned on the floor. She walked over the clothes everywhere on the way to the bathroom.
When she had changed she sat down on the floor to tackle the mess and figure out what was gone. The first thing she picked up was a lacy black nightgown. She had bought it just for tonight, and had been hoping that she would be putting it to good use right about now. She sighed and gathered up the rest of the contents of the drawer.
***
45 minutes later Mary emerged from the bedroom to find Wilson picking up glass by the front door. "Bedroom's done," she told him flatly.
"That's good, how much is gone?" he asked her
"Not too much," Mary said holding up a small list, "most of my jewelry is gone, and the VCR"
"Ok" Wilson said, his mind obviously elsewhere. Mary could just feel how angry he was. She was more scared than anything. She heard Wilson suck in breath sharply, and she turned to see blood running down his hand.
"Oh my God," Mary said exhausted, "come here" she dragged Wilson back to the master bathroom. She sat on the counter and dug through the medicine cabinet. "Hold your hand above your head, and don't drip on the carpet"
When she had bandaged him up, he didn't even look at her; he just said "thanks"
Mary took his face in her hands, "Wilson don't be angry with me, there's nothing we could have done to stop this, ok?" Wilson sighed, "I know but our night was ruined, and fixing all this-"
"It's not ruined" Mary smiled, although she knew it was.
Wilson walked out of the bathroom, "I need a drink"
Mary followed him out and sat herself on the couch. Wilson put the cabinet back up, but it was strange looking at a blank wall where the TV was before.
"Oh my god," Wilson said looking into the fridge, "those bastards took my beer!"
Mary turned around and looked over the couch, "are you serious?" she laughed
"Yes!" Wilson said as he closed the fridge. He opened up another cabinet, "ah ha, all the wine is still here" he smiled as he poured himself a glass and joined Mary on the couch.
Mary reached for the glass, "gimme some!" she whined.
"Uh no way!" Wilson said holding it up above his head
"But I need it too!" Mary pleaded, "I had a hard night same as you!"
"Nope" Wilson said taking a sip, "I don't want my kid to have an arm growing out of its head"
Mary laughed and snuggled against Wilson, "happy valentine's day" she said rolling her eyes.
