It was 10:00 A.M. When Julie had gotten up. Julie walked down the stairs and into the living room where she found the Epps brothers talking amungs themselves. Charlie was the first to stand up.
"Good morning Ms. Daniels" Charlie said greeting her.
"Please! Call me Julie" Julie said greeting him back.
"Alright then! Julie care to join us for breakfast?" Charlie said bowing slightly.
"Um...Ok" Julie said not knowing what to make of Charlies new behavior.
All the Epps men and Julie enjoyed a quiet
breakfast before Don and Charlie had to go to work. Don
got up cleared his place off and walked over to his dad.
Charlie did the same as well.
"Dad! can Julie stay here while we are at work?" Don asked.
"Sure!" Alan said smiling at his two sons.
"Thanks!" Charlie said giving his dad a little peck on the cheak.
Alan was surprised at his son, Charlie had not givin his dad a kiss like that since their mother died, and that kind of caught him off gaurd, dont get him wrong he loved his sons, but the fact Charlie gave him a kiss just wormed him up inside. After his two sons left he turned to Julie and smiled.
"So...you like chess?" Alan asked.
"Yes! very much" Julie said happly.
Julie and Alan took out the chess board and they began to play. Julie won about 9 games and Alan won about 10 games, Alan was good, but Julie was better.
"You know! you'r good" Julie said smiling then went in for a checkmate.
"But not good enough" Julie said making the game 10 to 10 Alan just shook his head in sock and with a smile on his face.
Don drove Charlie to work, then took off. Charlie walked into his office, placed his things down and began to work. Lerry came in 15 Minutes later to see what Charlie was up to.
"Good morning Charles" Lerry said greeting his long time friend.
"Ah! good morning Lerry" Charlie said not taking his eyes off his board.
"And what are we working on today? another one of Don's cases?" Lerry asked.
"No! just a math problem" Charlie said looking up this time.
Charlie was so busy talking to Larry that he didn't see Don enter his office until he took his eyes off of Lerry then placed them at the door.
"Oh hey Don! didnt hear you come in" Charlie said smiling.
"Nah dont worry about it! hey i have a case file for you! you think you can help us?" Don asked handing Charlie the file.
"Yeah sure...but i will need some time" Charlie said closing the file.
"Yeah sure, how much time?" Don asked.
"A day or two at the most" Charlie said seriously.
"Alright then! See you tonight buddy!" Don said walking out.
As Don walked to his SUV he didnt realize the three gentle men walking inside the CalSai building. Charlie was reading the FBI files on the 15 murders that took place in Don's area when Lerry began to say something.
"You know Charles you should have became an FBI agent just like Don" Lerry said laughing.
"Not funny Lerry" Charlie said cracking a smile.
"Well Charles i must be going, i have a class to attend to"
Lerry said turing and walking out.
Lerry left leaving Charlie by himself which he should not have done because right as soon as he left the same three men that was there last night came in, they walked over to Charlie and Nick smiled.
"Hello again professor" Nick said startling Charlie a little Charlie looked up.
"Look! how many times do i have to tell you i don't know that girl" Charlie said hoping they would believe him.
"Oh, but see theres the problem! i'm afraid you do" Nick said smiling at him
"What?" Charlie said confused know.
"Don't play dumb with us! we saw you going out of your building last night with your brother and that girl" Mike said angrly.
"I'm afraid you must come with us" Nick said with an evil grin.
Charlie new he was in trouble and he had to contact Don, but the question was how. Nick reached over and grabbed him by the arm, but Charlie would not go without a fight and that is excatly what he gave them. Charlie picked his stapler up and hit Mike with it knocking him to the floor, blood was coming from Mike's right side of this head. Steve came in for the jump only to get himself knocked on the ground. Nick caught Charlie off guard and punched him in the face knocking him down, then Mike grabbed Charlie by the right arm, Steve grabbed his left arm and Nick took hold of his two feet and carryed him out, Charlie struggled all the way to there car, but he was over powered and they threw him in the back of the trunk and drove off.
