On the ride home the only thing I could think about was killing Alex. God he makes me so angry. How could he do that he knew I liked her? He did always do things like this though. Even when we were kids he would always try to one up me. It seemed like it took a lot longer than usual to get to my house. Eventually I pulled up to my house, getting out I pulled the keys apart finding the right one and unlocking the front door. The emptiness of my "home" was almost suffocating me. Throwing the keys onto the table I started to take my clothes off throwing them where ever. First my shoes came off and were thrown at whatever was unlucky enough to be in the way. Next my vest and jacket came off they did not make the relieving noise as the shoes did when the hit there desired target. I walked up the stairs into the bathroom throwing the rest of my clothes into the hamper. Stepping into the shower I let the cold water run over my body. For some reason I always thought better in the shower it cleared my mind. Looking at the Lisbon situation with a better mind set I decided to just let it play out and go from there. Getting out of the shower I walked downstairs and made myself some tea. There was a loud knock at the door followed by Rigsby's booming voice.
"Hey Jane are you here?" Walking over to the door I looked down realizing I was still naked.
"Yeah I'll be there in a second." Running upstairs I found a shirt and a pair of boxers on the counter in the bathroom. It will have to do for now. Pulling on the boxers and walking out of the bathroom proved to be harder than I first expected. The shirt was much easier to put on while walking. Approaching the door I pulled it open and Rigsby came bursting in past me.
"Are you okay man?" He looked up at me like a dear in headlights.
"No Jane not really."
"What's wrong?" Rigsby looked like he was going to vomit.
"Do you know Cherri from the last case?" I nodded. "Well I like her a lot and I think she is dating someone. What the hell do I do Jane?"
"Women are very complicated and sometimes are unpredictable. You should try to befriend her and see how you interact before you try to ask her out." Looking up he saw my clothes spread throughout my living room.
"What happened?"
"I got angry."
"You strip when you get angry?" He had a large grin on his face.
"I was going upstairs to get a shower." Nodding in approval he turned around and walked out passing a quick good bye over his shoulder.
