"Anything, please, I'm begging you!" Shawn was on his knees by the Chief's desk, his hands clasped together as he begged.

"Mr Spencer," Karen Vick said wearily, precariously close to getting two officers to drag Shawn out of her office. She never seemed to be able to get any work done when Shawn was in the building, "Please stand up."

Shawn opened his eyes and raised an eyebrow, "Does that mean you have something for me? Anything? I don't mind working during the night, as long as I can wear my PJ's."

"I've told you already, we have no need for you on any other cases. Finish the one you're on and then we'll talk," Shawn pulled himself to his feet. "Why the sudden urge for more work?"

"I just have this strong sense that I'm needed here right now," Karen raised an eyebrow, unconvinced.

Shawn turned as the office door opened and the junior detective, Juliet O'Hara strode in. "Shawn, there you are."

Shawn turned back to the chief, "See?" He smiled. Karen rolled her eyes. "What do you need me for Jules, divine intervention? I can tell you, my interventions are always divine. Any criminal's minds you want me to read? Tarot cards?" Anything? He thought.

"Officer Michaels says your bike is blocking him in," Juliet said before leaving the room.

Shawn smiled sheepishly, "Move it now Mr Spencer," Karen ordered.

Shawn moved to the doorway but spun back round a second later. "You'll call me if there is something right?"

Karen pointed to the door, "Go!" Shawn smiled before jogging out the room. He skipped down the entrance and made his way to his bike.

"There you are!" Shawn spun and met a slightly annoyed Gus. "I've been looking for you everywhere, a note would have been nice."

"I'm sorry Gus, didn't realise I had to run my entire schedule past you."

"What were you doing here anyway?"

"Oh you know just looking for a new case."

Gus narrowed his eyes, "A case that would make you too busy to show that Nick King around Santa Barbara?" He guessed.

Shawn pretended to be offended, "What do you take me for Gus?"

"Why don't you just cancel it?"

"And have my dad have a go at me for cancelling things I've already said yes to? Why say yes Shawn if you're not going to follow through with it?" He said in a perfect imitation of his father.

"Why don't you just-

"-Hey!" Gus and Shawn turned towards the voice.

"Oh great," Shawn murmured and then winced when Gus elbowed him in the ribs. Shawn put on his widest smile. "Hi Nick!" He greeted.

Nick ran up to them, "Shawn, hi"

When Shawn failed to introduce him, Gus held out his hand, "Gus, Shawn's friend."

"Nick King, nice to meet you," He took Gus' hand and shook it hard.

"What can I do for you?" Shawn asked.

"Oh right, I won't be able to go out with you guys this week."

"And I was soo looking forward to it," Shawn replied, putting on his best disappointed voice.

"Me too but your Dad's invited me to poker with his old PD buddies."

Shawn raised an eyebrow, "Poker with the old PD buddies? He's never invited me to that."

"Oh he probably thought you wouldn't enjoy it, you know, not being a police officer and all."

Shawn swallowed, "Yeah that must be it," Gus frowned, concerned with his friend.

"And then we've got this fishing trip planned for the weekend."

"I've never like fishing," Shawn told him.

"You dad said as much," Nick chuckled, "He couldn't think of anything you two did together that you both enjoyed…anyway got to go back to work," He nodded his head towards the police station, "I'm loving it here," He smiled. "Great people."

"Yeah."

"You two should come over dinner sometime, Me and Henry are a bit busy at the moment, he's teaching some old school police tricks, its amazing all the things I notice at a crime scene now,"

"That's great," Shawn spoke through gritted teeth.

"We really should be going," Gus spoke up. "It was nice to meet you," He nodded politely at Nick.

"You too," Nick replied before turning and jogging up to the police station. Gus turned to Shawn.

"You okay?"

Shawn gave Gus a weak smile. He'd never been able to hide his true feelings from his best friend. Gus had seen Shawn at his best and worst and had been witness to the ups and downs of Shawn and Henry's relationship. "Peachy," He answered.

"Come on, I'll treat you to a pineapple smoothie."

"I think I might something a little stronger," Shawn replied, forgetting his motorbike and following Gus to his car.
