Bad Timing Part 1
A week had passed. They solved a couple cases that went so smoothly and were so uninteresting that no one would ever want to hear about them. They went out to dinner twice. As always, they always went home alone.
Tonight was Friday night. The boys were off at a restaurant with Joe meeting Carrie for the first time, and Lee couldn't imagine it going too well. He'd done a little casual surveillance of Carrie, and her similarity to Amanda was almost unnerving.
Still, their absence from the house meant that Amanda could stay out a little later than usual, and he'd taken advantage of that. They tried out a new restaurant that had opened a few blocks from his apartment. It was far enough from the agency that she was able to wear her ring. He kept telling her stories of cases and adventures he'd had, trying to prolong their time together, holding her hand and playing with her ring.
He had one more week to wait. He could live with that.
