Author's Note: Sorry for the long wait. My writing muse for this particular story decided to go on vacation for a while. Anyway here is the next chapter I hope you like it.


Walking into the apartment just overwhelmed both of the detectives. They forgot that it was only a one bedroom apartment because when they had bought it originally it was a newly wed apartment. They had bought a pullout couch for the occasional guest for the living room.

Tamika was overwhelmed just by the memories alone and shuddered. Clavo had mistaken her reaction to the apartment being drafty. "Don't worry it'll warm up we haven't used it since before the divorce."

Clavo grimaced when he saw her reflexively flinch at the word divorce.

She awkwardly turned to Clavo. "I'll take the couch you can take the bedroom."

Clavo grimaced again. The gentleman in him protested to her suggestions. He was brought up to allow the woman to sleep in comfort not the other way around, "You should take the bedroom. That couch is uncomfortable. It hasn't been used since we originally got it for the apartment. Besides if anyone is going to be any more uncomfortable then we already are it should be me."

Tamika sighed, "I'm not going to get any sleep as it is. I'm used to having Laura around and I'm too worried about Daddy," She said softly. She hadn't called her father "Daddy" since her freshman year in high school.

Clavo nodded his head knowing that an argument was the last thing he needed with her right now. He also knew that despite her protests she'd be asleep in a couple of hours and he had every intention on switching the sleeping arrangements after she had fallen fast asleep.

"Ok, Mika," he gave in with a small smile, "Go ahead and take the couch. Try to rest. We'll find him even if we have to interrogate even single person that works or studies at that school."

Tamika's smile was weak, "Thanks Clavo."

"Hey what are partners for?"

That comment got Tamika to laugh. "Good question what are they for?"

Clavo shook his head not even wanting to go there on the subject. She may be a little laid back right now but her head as still swimming with possible attacks of revenge on her father's abductors and He knew her too well to just keep on pressing her. "I don't know I'll tell you when I figure out the answer," he said with a smile. At his hearing her give a quick chuckle he turned towards the bedroom. "G'night Mika see you in the morning."

Tamika smiled, "See you in the morning." As soon as she saw the bedroom door close, she let out a sigh of relief and slumped down on to the couch, her body wracking with silent sobs.

She pulled out her laptop computer and booted it up. She smiled as soon as she saw her desktop wallpaper. A picture of a four year old girl with long brown hair and pale blue eyes playing on a swing in the park, she remembered this picture, it was when Laura just turned four and the three of them went to the park. Clavo had become camera happy and burned up five rolls of film in that afternoon alone. She laughed and shook her head and then booted up her internet to retrieve her electronic mail.

She smiled when she say her grandmother's email address in the inbox with Hi Mommy I miss you in the subject line. She opened the letter by clicking on a link and read it.

Hi Mommy,

I miss you when are you coming home. Why isn't Daddy home? I called him and he didn't answer. I wish I were with you or Daddy, but Great Grandma and I are having fun too. We went to the park today and she let me write you a letter. Well she had to type it on the computer though. Anyway come back from vacation soon. That's what Great Grandma said you were doing. I'm said that you didn't take me. I love you.

Love,

Laura

She smiled when she clicked the reply button on the screen in front of her and started writing back her response to her daughter. She had to laugh when she wrote about Clavo promising to buy her lots of gifts. "Clavo is so going to kill me," she continued laughing and shaking her head as she finished writing her email.

Hey Sweetie,

Mommy misses you too. I had to go away for a little while. I know you don't understand why I didn't bring you on vacation but I'll tell you everything as soon as I get back. Don't give your Great Grandma a hard time. Be a good little girl like I know you can be. I talked to Daddy he had to go away on a vacation too. He promises to get you lots and lots of presents though. I know you and he were supposed to spend all weekend together but it was very important.

I promise to tell you everything as soon as I comeback. I love you very much. Daddy says he loves you very much too. I have to go now. It's late and you have Kindergarten in the morning.

Love,

Mommy

She smiled when she finished the email and clicked the send button to have the email dispatched. She would have to remind herself in the morning to tell Clavo she promised he would buy his daughter lots and lots of presents. She shut down the computer and then fell asleep on the couch.

An hour or so later Clavo walked in to the living room and gently, as not to wake her, picked Tamika up off the couch carrying her to the bedroom. He gently laid her down on the bed and chuckled when he heard her grumbling. "I knew you would do that! Always the gentleman, do you know how annoying that is."

He chuckled again she was clearly asleep but also knew that he would switch sleeping arrangements. He kissed her softly on the forehead and walked out to the living room planning to fall asleep on the couch.

He saw her laptop lying on the coffee table. And booted it up, knowing she wouldn't mind if he checked his own electronic mail. Once the laptop was booted it he opened the wireless internet and went into his mail account. He smiled when he saw his ex-grandmother-in-law's e-mail address. Knowing that the mail had to be sent on behalf of his daughter, he swiftly opened the mail's link.

Hi Daddy,

I missed you. I just got a letter from Mommy. She said that you and she had to go on vacation. She also said that you promised to buy me lots and lots of presents. I know you'll probably be away for a little while but I already miss you and Mommy very much.

I'm being good for Great Grandma don't worry I will stay being good. Have fun and don't get sunburned. I love you come back soon.

Love,

Laura

Clavo shook his head and smiled. This would be the only interaction either he or Tamika would have with their daughter until they found Tom. He just wished for all parties involved that they found him soon. Laura was very close to Tom. They were practically inseparable. Just looking at the two of them together gave him reminders of how Tom and Tamika used to get along when she was younger.

He pressed the reply link and a refreshed screen came up. He smiled as he thought what he would type to his daughter, all the while knowing that Mrs. Hanson would no doubt be reading it and typing back to him, his daughter dictating every word.

Hi Sweetie,

I miss you too. I'm glad to hear that you're being good for your Great Grandma. I'm sorry I can't see you this weekend. I know you really wanted to see me but this vacation is really important. Mommy's right. I will be buying you lots and lots of presents for you. I don't know how long I will be gone but I will come back as soon as I can. Then you and I can have a really long time together just the two of us.

Tell your Great Grandma that I say "Hello" and remember be very, very good. I have to go to bed now it's very, very late and I have to get up early to go fishing.

Love,

Daddy

Xxxooo

Clavo sighed as he turned off the computer. Rubbing his face with his hands, he groaned and slammed himself into the back of the couch. His libido was on overdrive just having Tamika under the same roof as him. He understood their Captain's intentions. He thought that Captain Fuller was being honorable but of all people to be put on a case like this, Clavo and Tamika were the emotionally attached people to get assigned. They'd want vengeance and that could cloud their judgment.

Clavo woke up to a banging on the apartment's door. 'That can't be possible. No one knows that this apartment is even occupied.' He dug his hand under the couch cushion where he and Tamika stored their arsenal and pulled out a Beretta Model 84 Hand Gun. He unlocked the safety and readied his trigger finger.

He figured Tamika had a similar train of thought because she had his gun's sister in her hands at the ready as well. He gave a silent command with his hands and then counted to three.

"Who's there," shouted Tamika in her Andrea role.

"It's Rico," the young man's voice that the two had met a day prior.

"What's he doing here?" Clavo murmured. He saw Tamika shrug.

"What do you want?" She asked suspiciously.

"I live down the road from you and I thought you and I could walk to the school together."

"Well Clavo drives me to school. He's here now. We don't need company. How about we just meet you in front of the quad?"

"Fair enough. I'll see you guys in about an hour then."

The two armed coupled sighed when they heard retreating footsteps.

"I have a sneaking suspicion that we just found our first suspect," Clavo whispered.

Tamika glared at her ex-husband. "He was put on that list yesterday when he asked us if we were cops. I should know I put him in the case log."

Clavo just chuckled. "Always five steps ahead aren't we Lt.?"

Tamika chuckled. "Let's get ready for school comedian. I think we found the weakness and I'm going to take full advantage of him."
