The day After
Sheriff sat in his office still thinking about the robbery, deputy Sacks walked in. he started talking about a disturbance over at the Neptune Grand. Lamb wasn't' listening he was though thinking about last night when he was driving Veronica home, which normally he would never do but he felt bad. After the robbery the police finally came, even though he was the sheriff they asked him question. They asked everyone there questions but Veronica got focused on the most because she came in such close contact with one of them. She looked bothered by Sacks as he asked her questions. Finally he went up to them.
"Deputy, we can ask questions later okay"
"Okay sheriff" Sacks walked away to go and question another woman.
"Thanks, somehow Sacks Questioning me wasn't really on my list of things to do after I fell upon a robbery" She said as she walked outside. Lamb walked beside her.
"Yea didn't think so, so what were you going to do?" he asked as she started to look around the parking lot.
"Well I was going to go home an craw into my bed, but it since I don't have a ride and my cell phone or what's left of it is being taken to the lab to test for prints, do you mind?" she said as she turned to him no doubt asking for and ride.
He looked at her, then sighed and he opened his door and said" yea whatever, get in"
His mind then returned form his thoughts, and went back to talking to Sacks. "Yea yu go ahead I need to look over this Bank thing some more" Just then Veronica walked in bumping into Sacks.
"Geez Veronica watch where you are going" Sheriff Lamb said
"Sorry Veronica" Sack mumbled to her as she slipped by him. She nodded her head, and watched him leave. Then shut the door.
"So I was thinking when the one guy saw you, he obviously didn't know you were the sheriff or he would have had another response, so the thieves must not be from Nep…" She was cut off by Lamb.
"Veronica no" he said
"No what?" she watched him as he stood up and walked around his desk.
"None of this" he said pointing to her "There is no way you are going to be looking in on this robbery thing"
"What, why not?" she asked a questioning look on her face.
"Just no okay?"
"Wait since when should I even listen to you?" she didn't understand why.
"Veronica no, just promise me, don't get into this" Lamb looked at her sternly.
"Fine" as her hands flew up and she stormed out of the room. Sheriff Lamb shook his head, and then sat back down at his desk. He thought about the case, and then realized Veronica was right, if they had seen him they would have known the reaction would have different. The robbers couldn't have been from Neptune.
Veronica stepped in the girls doom house. She stopped at Mac's door. She really didn't want to talk so she left a message on her board. Veronica placed the cap back on the marker and looked at what she wrote. All the sudden the door swung open. Logan was laughing at something, until he looked up. He looked at Veronica. Parker came into sight; she stopped and looked at Veronica.
"Oh hey Veronica, umm we were just leaving, Mac's not here, but I see you left a message." Parker said as she placed her hand in Logan's. Logan sort of trembled at her touch, he looked at Parker.
"Yea while you guys do that I am going to go…" he said awkwardly trying to think of something to say "stand over there, okay"
Parker nodded, as he kissed her on her forehead. Veronica quickly looked at the ground, then back at them. Logan slipped by her.
"Wow, usually I have to actually say something to scare them away" Veronica said to Parker who was reaching for her coat.
"Yea I guess it is still a little weird for him" Parker said as she shut the door and smiled at her. "Okay, well Ill see you later Veronica." Parker joined up with Logan and they walked put of the hallway.
Veronica stood there for a second, and then turned around and headed to the door at the other end of the hall way.
