I left the pier and walked home to get ready for my afternoon shift.
I had a quick shower and got changed into my uniform before driving to work, I pulled up, walking into the police station, greeting watson.
"afternoon"
"afternoon charlie" watson greeted "we are on afternoon patrol" watson informed me as I signed in
Five minutes later we hoped into the patrol car and made our way in to town to drive around on patrol, we pulled in the carpark of the diner, turning the ignition off before walking into the diner with watson to pick up two takeaway coffees.
We hopped in the car as a call came through over the speaker 'John wanted us to talk with him about the riverboys who were spending alot of time in the surf club'.
We drove over to the surf club and walked in to the relief of John who walked over to us.
"finally you've made it" John blurted as Watson and I walked in
"afternoon John" I greeted "what is the matter" questioning him as I scanned the room for the riverboys before returning my attention to John
"the Riverboys are my problem" he shot back trying to keep his cool "they make a ruckass and I am just tired of them spending every minute of the day here, I really think they are doing some side bussiness" he stated
"ok, well we will talk to them" I replied reassuringly "do you know where they might have gotten too?" I questioned trying to narrow my search down
"they were talking about going for a surf, I don't know where though" John replied before walking back to the gelato bar to serve a couple of customers
"thanks" I replied before leaving the surf club
Watson and I started walking to our car as I turned to look down to the beach, where the riverboys were nowhere to be seen, I joined Watson in the car.
"do you think the riverboys will be at Wilsons beach" Watson questioned as I started the ignition
We drove to the beach pulling up in the carpark spotting Heath and Brax walking out of the water with a couple of young kids, I stepped out of the car and walked down as the kids ran off with smiles on their faces, brax waved at the woman who was the mother before turning to face me.
"afternoon sergeant" brax greeted as he stopped standing a couple steps from me
"I had a call from the surf club, at his request he and I would like you and your boys to spend less time at the surf club" I stated
"whats the problem sergeant?" brax questioned
"John dosen't want your boys hanging around the club" charlie stated
"what a jerk" Heath interrupted as brax elbowed him in the ribs
"even if you think he is a jerk, he is the owner of the club, so this is a warning" charlie exclaimed before leaving the boys and walking back to the car.
Watson and I drove back to the station to finish paper work before the end of our shifts,I finally finished around five and drove down to the diner, to pick up a coffee and return home.
"evening Irene" I greeted walking to the counter
"evening darl, what would you like" Irene replied
"just a takeaway coffee please" I replied handing my change to her, and her handing my coffee in return, waving bye to her I drove home and walked in to see Ruby watching a movie.
"hey Rubes" I greeted making my way to my room
"hey mum, dinners in the oven" she replied as I walked out of my room
"ok, Ill have a quick shower and then eat something" charlie replied walking to the bathroom
"k" I muttered as she left the room
I went to bed early after eating something, waking up late the next morning, I picked my phone off the bedside cabinet noticing the time I quickly jumped out of bed changing and rushing out the door to the shock of Ruby who was sitting in her uniform eating breakfast at the table.
I walked into the diner ordering some breakfast since I didn't eat at home as brax walked in ordering a coffee.
"morning sergeant" brax greeted as he waited next to the counter
"morning" I greeted back before collecting my order and walking out to my car, leaving a cheeky grin on brax's face
Brax's prov
I knew she had feelings for me and I was cracking her, I walked out to the pier downing my coffee before walking to the surf club making my way up the stairs to Angelo's greeting angelo as he stood behind the bar, looking up to his dissapointment as he watched me walk closer to the bar.
"brax what do you want" he questioned as I sat on the stool
"a beer would be great thanks" I retorted as he reluctantly handed me a beer "I was wondering how much your supplys would cost cause you don't have alot of customers or much money coming through"
"well it dosen't worry you" Angelo stated
"well just saying I could help you out and would have customers back through that door very soon" I replied looking over at the door before looking back to angelo
"Ill think about it but Im not guranting anything" he replied as I stood and left the resturant
I left happier as I met the boys for an afternoon surf and we were out on the water for about half an hour and were returning back to the beach as I noticed the cops pull up in the carpark at the top of the beach, smiling as I placed my surf board down on the sand picking my towel up partially drying my wet body as Charlie and Georgia walked down meeting us on the beach
"afternoon boys" charlie greeted as the boys joined brax on the beach
"morning coppa's" heath greeted cheekily "what can we do for you"
"just following up a complaint and we actually came to also pick up Brody for questioning" charlie stated looking straight at brody who stood behind brax and heath
"ok but why brody, has he done something wrong" I questioned curious
"well we determine that once we have finished questioning him down at the station" charlie proclaimed looking back at brax
"ok, brods go with them will tell your missus where you got off to" I stated my eye contact not leaving charlie
"thanks brax" brods replied walking off with the cops
Charlie's prov
The interview took half an hour and I returned to town a couple of hours later.
Brax's prov
Brody filled me in and was upset cause he didn't know if he was going to be charged for a break in, in a pub up the coast which would send him back to prison, I reassured him that I would sought it leaving him to return home to his missus, I walked down to the diner and found Leah behind the counter.
"hey leah would you be able to tell me where charlie lives" I questioned
"hey Brax I do but why do you need to see her" she replied uncertain whether to tell me
"um its a police matter and I rung the station and they let me know that she would be at home" I stated reassuring her that it was nothing more
"ok well she is my flatmate" leah stated handing me the address as I thanked her and walked out of the diner on my way to talk to her.
Charlie's Prov
I sat on the couch not expecting any visitors and noone to be home till after 6pm as I watched day time television, their was a knock at the door, suprised I stood up, whoever was at the door was impatient, because it took me yelling Im coming for them to stop knocking.
I answered the door to my shock as I saw Brax standing on the other side.
"brax" I stated confused "what are you doing here" questioning him
"hello sergeant, I just wanted talk about Brody" he replied as I turned walking over to the bench pouring me a glass of water
"well I need to talk to him about that, but you could save me the chat" I stated as he knodded curious, carry on I stated
"even though he had an interesting alibi when the crime took place, it doesn't place him at the crime scene so we are not charging him for the robbery"
To the relief of brax whos head instantly sprung up when he herd charlie say that they weren't charging him
"thanks thats great Ill pass it on to him" he stated
"ok" I replied looking at him as he looked at the ground for a few moments "was their anything else" i questioned as he quickly replied no
"Ill see you around sergeant" he replied walking off "thanks" he stated as a smile appeared on my face, i closed the door watching him walk down the path, my feelings were out of control.
Brax's Prov
I walked down her driveway standing at the end of it thinking to myself that I was a total dick it was all over my face that I liked her, I groaned before continuing to walk back home.
Charlie's prov
I continued watching tv as the clock ticked it was getting closer to six and I didn't want to be around anyone so I slipped out the door around 20 to 6 walking down to the beach, I sat down where noone really noticed thinking to myself, as it started getting dark and colder, I wrapped my arms around my body trying to warm myself up.
Brax's Prov
It was about 8pm and I decided to make my way home from the surf club, I walked along the beach home thinking to myself about my feelings I had towards charlie.
Will Brax see Charlie on the beach?
And are they going to admit to their feelings?
