Chapter 2

Shawn quickly picks himself of the floor and heads towards where Gus was covertly standing. "Gus lets go"

"Shawn what's going on?"

"We have to find Juliet!" says Shawn as they head out of the S.B.P.D.

"Why, is she in danger?"

"Not right now, I will explain it all on the way to her house"

"Why isn't she at work?"

"Today was her day off; I saw the officer schedule on Karen's desk. Gus, keys" Shawn says as they get into Gus' blue car and head toward Juliet's house.

INSIDE CHIEF'S OFFICE

"Lassiter I want you to track down Juliet and tell her what is going on; tell her NOT to take this case!"

"What if she …"

"No what ifs Carlton, if you can't persuade her not to take it then find Spencer and see if he can!"

"That won't be necessary chief"

"I didn't think it would; here is her address." Lassiter takes the address and walks out of Karen's office.

"Be nice about it!" the chief yells as he is walking out.

JULIET'S HOUSE

She could not believe how boring this day had been, she felt like she hadn't accomplished a thing – well she hadn't come to think of it. All she had done all day other than play with her cats was to think about Shawn. This is exactly the reason why she didn't take off from work; it gave her too much time to think. She thought about taking a walk on the beach but it was kind of a cold December day so she settled for cleaning her house, maybe this would keep her mind off of Shawn.

Wrong! As she washed dishes all she could think of was the way he looked at her; she couldn't quite understand it. No other man had ever looked at her that way; she couldn't quite describe that look – hunger, passion, desire, and hurt when she told him she didn't put much into those personality match-up things. As she caught up her weeks worth of laundry she though about how each day she looked forward to going to work – not because of the job that she work so hard to get, but for a chance to see a Shawn. As she scrubbed her bathroom and kitchen clean she thought about their many flirtatious conversations they had had over the past few months and how he came to rescue her on the Wispy Sunny Pines case. Before she knew it 4 hours had flown by and her house was spotless. She decided she had to get out of the house and quit thinking about Shawn. Maybe she would rent a movie or something, anything!
