Well last left our characters at a club. Gary was going to ask out Nicole, as he thought she really liked him. However he walked out of the bathroom to see Nicole kissing Phil. What he didn't see was Nicole saying how she had made a mistake, and it was the drink that was making her do this. Phil of course bought none of this and smirked as she walked off.
Phil and Gary are off inspecting a number of crimes that have been done by the same person. Nicole was working with Ken temporarily, under Neil's orders. Neil had been a little pre-occupied with Andrea to worry about Nicole's partner.
"It just doesn't make sense" Gary stated as he and Phil walked down a road. "What's the point in doing all these crimes for no reason?" Gary asked Phil
"Well there's always a motive, we just gotta find it. Whether it's you know jealousy, revenge or he's just a complete nutter!" Phil said as Gary smiled at his comment about being a nutter. The two walked on towards the suspect's house. They were going to search it again as they had come to a dead end. Again.
Nicole sat bored in the canteen watching ken eat a bacon sandwich feeling very bored. Nicole watched as he took another bite, she cringed. "Ken I'll see you up in CID" Ken nodded and continued munching on his sandwich. Nicole frowned and got up holding her coffee. As she was walking out of the canteen she thought she saw a stain on her top so she started messing with that for a few seconds. While she was messing with her shirt she banged into someone spilling coffee on their uniform. Nicole quickly looked up "Oh no. I am so sorry!" She looked up at the person and saw it was a man. "No no its fine really"
"No its not. That's gonna leave a stain" Nicole put her coffee down on the side and grabbed some serviettes from the side and started wiping the mans chest without thinking what she was doing.
"Listen its fine" the man took hold of her hands that she was using to wipe his shirt.
Nicole looked up "sorry" she said looking apologetic "well send me the dry cleaning bill" she smiled at him.
"If it makes you happy" he joked "Steve hunter"
"Hi" she said smiling at him "Nicole Hartley"
"So you're the new officer in CID there all talking about then"
"Wow didn't realise I was so popular! But yeah that's me. Hey Steve hunter. Your not related to Phil are you by any chance?"
"Yeah I am. He's my brother"
"Oh wow" she smiled laughing softly. Then Ken came up behind her "We ready?" he asked her.
"Yeah sure" she started to move "Once again so sorry!" Steve smiled "Alright?" Ken asked as if seeing Steve for the first time. Again Steve nodded, and watched the two of them walk away.
"Nothing!" Gary exclaimed as he walked through the house towards Phil.
"I know, it's like he's mother Theresa!" Phil said slamming a pillow down on the sofa.
"We'll get him alright" Gary growled as he went off to search the rest of the house. Phil did the same; he walked past the stairs where he saw a large crack in the stairs leading down to the floor. Looking almost like a door. Phil investigated, and managed to open it. It was a room underneath the stairs. He put on a light and looked around in astonishment. "Gary! Come here!"
Gary followed the face and found him "Sarg?"
"Look" Phil said simply.
Gary looked around "She's pretty fit!" the room was covered in poster of a woman, modelling lingerie, various clothes and various men's magazines. "Look at her Gary"
"What do you think I'm doing!" said Gary mouth open practically drooling. "Gary look at her face" "Oh" he replied. He looked and then turned to look at Phil in astonishment "no way!"
"I think we just found our motive"
Phil and Gary made their way up to Nicolas desk and stood in front of it. Nicole looked up "Hey….Can I help you?"
"Yeah, you ever done modelling work?" Phil asked.
"As a matter of fact I have. Mostly lingerie and stuff. I did a few shoots for men's magazines. No nude work mind!" Phil and Gary looked at her. "Well I wanted the Porsche. How else do you think I afforded it?" she looked at them both who were just looking at her "Hey don't you judge me!"
"No were not its just we were at-" Gary was cut off by Phil
"Thanks. Come on Gary" Phil carted off Gary towards Jacks office. Phil knocked on the door. "Come in" Jack called. Both Phil and Gary entered. Jack looked and saw Gary and Phil. "Phil, Gary and what do I owe the pleasure?"
"You know the Scaife case?"
"Yes" Jack replied.
"Well, it's a bit more than that" Gary said.
"How do you mean?" asked Jack confused.
"Well turns out Adam Scaife is a bit obsessed. We may have a stalker on our hands."
"What! Well who's he stalking?"
"Dc Nicole Hartley" Jack face looked in utter shock.
