Friends Forever?
Chapter three
Danny turned back around and saw that all his co-workers were staring at him. "What?" he asked.
"Did you just ask Mary out on a date?" asked Mike who really wasn't shocked.
"Um..."
"It's about time!" shouted Mike before Danny could answer.
"What?"
"Everyone knows you and Mary like each other."
"We do?"
"Duh, Danny."
Danny's cell phone rang.
"Danny McCoy."
"We've got a lead. Check with Nessa she's got a name."
"Okay, Ed." Danny closed his cell phone and headed down to where Nessa was working. "What's up?" he asked as soon as he got there.
"Well, I asked the guy who gave him all that money, if he knew the name of the thief."
"And..."
"And he gave me a name. Robert Parkerson."
"Okay, thanks Nessa." Danny pulled out his cell phone and called Mike.
"Mike."
"Hey Mike, it's Danny. Head up to the surveillance room for me. I have name I want you to do a back round check on."
"Okay, I'll be right up."
Danny closed his phone and headed to the surveillance room.
"I need you to run a back round check on this guy Robert Parkerson," Danny said to Mike once he got in the room.
"Parkerson?"
"Yeah."
"That name sounds all too familiar," said Mike who was looking up at Ed's office where Ed was interviewing the new guy.
"How?" asked Danny.
"You know that new guy? His name was Garrett Parkerson."
"Related?"
"Maybe." Danny and Mike both glanced up at Ed's office where they saw Parkerson.
MEANWHILE...Mary was wandering around the Montecito when her cell phone rang. "This is Mary," her cheery voice said. After all she had just gotten a date with Danny McCoy.
"Hey, can you meet me out front of the Montecito, for a second?"
Mary wondered who the caller was. She thought it sounded like Danny's voice. "It must be him, probably wants to cancel for tonight," she wandered to herself.
"Hello?" said the voice.
"Sure. I'll be right there."
"Okay, great." The person on the other line hung up.
"Hopefully that was Danny."
"Why would you hope that?" asked someone behind her.
Mary turned around and saw a man staring at her. "I'm sorry, do I know you?" she asked politely.
"No. My name is Robert."
"Hi, I'm Mary," she said shaking his arm that was extended.
"So, Mary would you like to go get a drink at the bar over there with me?"
"Um, I'm sorry. I'm not allowed to drink on the job."
"Not allowed to drink on what job?"
"I'm the Special Events Coordinator here at the Montecito."
"Oh."
"Maybe some other time, Robert. I'm sorry I have to go."
"Okay. I'll see you around?"
"Sure." Mary headed outside to meet the guy who had called her earlier.
Garrett Parkerson left Ed's office and walked by Mike. Garrett headed out of the surveillance room and headed outside.
