Disclaimer: Now I own Glee and Blue Bloods along with all the rainbows and sunshine of the earth, so expect guns and policemen on Glee an a full musical on Blue Bloods featuring a mash-up between Loser and Bad Romance (In case you didn't notice that was sarcasm)
BTW: The names of the chapters are after Glee or New Kids on the Block songs and have nothing to do with the content of the chapter I just think they made good titles, I also don't own any song mentioned in here.
On with the chapter…
Chapter 5: I Wanna Hold Your Hand
Danny's brain was in utter chaos but his body seem frozen in place, he couldn't manage to move, this was new information and this new information changed EVERYTHING, she saw him, she could describe him, she could finally give a face to the lowlife bastard that had made the last three years of his life hell, now he could walk the streets and not wondering about every male that pass him, if that was the man who had murdered his wife in the coldest manner possibly, he could finally stop dreaming of just a body and put a face on it, in a few hours tops Danny would have a clear vision of the son of a… Rachel interrupted his rant when she softly touch his arm and in the most concerned voice he had heard in a while asked "-Are you alright Detective?-" Rachel's voice brought him back to reality, he needed her guardian before asking for a sketch artist, he nodded and with a lot of effort went back to his wooden chair.
"-Is there any other way we can get in touch with your guardian?-" asked Danny in a contorted voice Rachel sit up and said "-I have his cellphone number-" she started searching around her for her purse but could not find it anywhere, come to think about it she hadn't seen her purse around since she laid on the street "-My cellphone is in my purse and I don't know where it is-" Danny asked "-When was the last time you saw it?-" "-Before I pretended to be dead-" he squinted and say "-Did you still had it with you when I found you?-" Rachel answered a little unsure "-I don't know, I can't remember-" he tried to remember if he saw it "-But I know I didn't have it with me in the ambulance or I would've put it in the evidence bag-" Danny got up again and stormed out of his office with long strides, Rachel got up too and sprinted a little in order to catch up with him, when she reach him she took his hand again and he looked at her as if he was seeing her for the first time and said "-You should've stayed in the office-" Rachel answered in a unconcerned voice "-Could've, should've, would've but I didn't so you'll have to take me with you-" truth was she was completely terrified of being without him, Danny shook his head and told her "-Fine, but behave and don't touch anything-" Rachel frown after all she wasn't three years old.
They walked in silence until they got to the evidence room, Danny knock on the counter a couple of times before a very sleepy cop came to the small window "-Morning Detective Reagan, how can I help you at this early hour?-" he stressed the word early a lot to Rachel's taste but Danny seem to not care at all "-Need to know if someone collected a purse from tonight's shooting-" he said not even bothering to return the cold greeting, the cop grabbed a bunch of papers from under the desk and took his time checking them "-Yes, indeed we have two recovered purses one purple, one red which one do you need?-" instead of answering Danny looked at Rachel who had her eyebrows furrowed "-My purse was a white handbag-" the cop behind the counter searched his list again and said "-No, we don't have register of a white purse-" Danny took the list from the cop's hand and started searching it himself while saying "-You most have it under another investigation you're always messing things up back there-" as he checked he noticed there was in fact no record of a white purse for several weeks, he slammed the list back in the counter, grabbed Rachel by the arm and walked out of the evidence room clearly irritated, Rachel managed to say "-Thank you!-" to the cop while being dragged through the door.
Danny dragged her all the way back to his office not hearing or choosing to ignore the girls protests and as soon as they walked in he let her go, she went to sit down in his leather chair, and started to rub her arm, after all she had fairly delicate skin and his grip had hurt a little "-Sorry-" he said while pacing in front of her "-Don't worry, just stop doing it-" she answered with his same choice of words from a few minutes back, after several minutes more, or could've been hours of Danny pacing and Rachel watching him, she was getting dizzy and a little bit irritated so she decided to speak "-You're gonna dig a hole on the ground, you know?-" Danny turned to look at her and spoke something that had been bothering all night "-What kind of guardian let's a teenage girl out, at night in an unfamiliar city? -" Rachel decided that she prefer him talking, even if it was on a rude tone, to him pacing so she answered "-Well saying that he let me out is a bit of a misunderstanding-" She was going to keep him talking by not giving him all the information necessary "-So you escaped?-" he asked while bringing his wooden chair closer to the desk and sitting right in front of Rachel again "-Well…no… hum… he wasn't at the hotel when I left, so technically I didn't escape-"
Danny held the bridge of his nose and with a sigh asked "-What?-" Rachel was about to tell him the whole story when she remembered something "-Should you be asking me this? Didn't you said you needed my guardian before asking questions?-" Danny shook his head and said "-This is off the record-" Rachel look at him confused of course, she knew what the expression *off the record* meant, with her being a future star and all, but she didn't know what it had to do here, in a police station, Danny sensing her confusion said "-It means it's between you and me, no one else has to know about it-" Rachel nodded, smile a little and asked "-It would be like… a secret?-" Danny nodded and said "-Yes now tell me your story-" Rachel smile showing almost every teeth in her mouth Danny wondered why she look so excited, soon he would stop wondering and deeply regret asking her to share.
Ok so there it is. I know it's short but what do you prefer short chapters updated often or long chapters updated seldom? It's been a week since I posted this so YEY! I still wonder if I'm capturing the essence of the characters but since I have not received a complaint I will assume I am.
