A Little Bit of Texas: Speed
Disclosure & Tidbits
I've got a lot to disclose, so bear with me.
First off, none of the names you can recognize belong to me. Bruckheimer, CBS, the writers and the actors are the rightful owners; I'm just playing in their sandbox.
TIMING: I started writing this six months ago, or thereabouts. Long before Rory Cochrane announced he was leaving the show, long before Speedle got killed off. I have decided I don't like the idea of a dead Tim Speedle, so that never happened in my story, and it never will. Especially since Tim, in my story, gets to be friends with a cop, and she would never allow him to walk around with a dirty gun. In fact, there is a whole scene about her convincing him to keep his gun clean.
LENGTH WARNING: This story is amazedly and obscenely long. It just kind of turned out that way. I do apologize, and I hope if you do read my story it will entertain you through the whole length. It's because I wanted both a crime and a relationship, and then the crimes helped build the relationships, and then ... it kind of exploded.
MIAMI?: The club Secrets is based on an idea I had for a club, if I were to ever open one. There is no place like it in reality (that I know of.) Parrot Island and the Japanese botanical gardens attached to it are real. There really is a restaurant in those gardens, but I'm not sure if it's opened yet. YaMans is made up, as are the names of the bands that play there. Bayfront Park is a real park in Miami's downtown area, but I made up the fountains.
The story is rated R for violence, descriptions of bodies, language, and sex. This story has the first sex scenes I've ever written, so please 1. Do tell me how to improve them and 2. Be gentle.
