It was a usual morning at the station. Not a lot of energy. Geoff was moaning, Alf was drinking coffee and Sargent. Miller was waiting for Joe and Don to get back
"Boys" Miller greeted in his usual tone
"Sargent, we have something" Joe said
"all right then, Mason"
"We found this needle" Joe showed him
"where did you find that?" He asked
"down the alley way, we think it's linked to the attack on Miss. Cassidy"
"very well, good work lads" Miller took the needle which was wrapped in a handkerchief.. He looked over at Don
"Weatherby?" Miller asked.
"um
yes Sarg?" He asked
"what on earth happened to you" He asked
"um well" He heard Joe snigger "nettles sir"
"be careful next time" Miller slightly smiled and walked into his office. Joe laughed.
"how did you manage that?" Alf asked
"i slipped ok" Don said. He slumped in his chair. He jumped and gasped as he did though. Geoff was sitting next to him with a mug of coffee in his hand.
"what's wrong with you?" Don asked noticing he looked slightly ticked off
"Why does Sargent Dawson get her own office?" He asked
"what? Are you kidding me?" Don didn't really take this seriously
"well, she thinks she's more
important than us, mabe because she's female i don't know"
"you
should have a office then" Don joked. This made Joe and Alf grin
"what?" Geoff didn't understand
"Geoff, he basically called you a woman" Alf told.
"that is disrespectful" Geoff stood up trying to stick up for himself but he failed and tripped over.
"Geoff" Don sighed "look she has a office because she is CID"
"oh right" Geoff's cheeks glowed red.
"Joe, you need to go on traffic patrol" Miller demanded
"what?! When there is a case like this?" Joe asked
"don't back chat me boy" Miller raised his voice.
