Chapter 4

Plan A


"You can't be serious about going through with this Jordan?" Woody's eyes grew wide as Jordan entered her friend's apartment and began to go through with the first stage of her plan.

"I am Woody! You don't know Sara that well, you have no idea how long it will take her to actually make a move – if she does it at all that is. Now, where do you think she keeps her tools? I need a wrench."

Woody threw his hands up as he claimed, "I am not helping you with this. If you were doing something else then maybe but this is vandalism Jo."

Jordan had stopped listening to her fiancé as she began to dig through the hall closet. "Ah ha! Perfect!"


Sara and Catherine were sitting down in the break room to have a cup of coffee when Sara's phone began to ring. Looking down at the caller ID she flipped her phone open, "Hey Jo what's up? You guys have fun on the strip?"

Catherine saw her colleagues face drop as she listened to her friend on the other end of the phone. Something was not right.

"What?! How?! Where?! How bad is it?!" Sara was asking questions faster then Jordan could answer them. The conversation lasted a few more minutes before Sara slammed her phone shut, "Damn it!"

"What's going on?" Catherine asked as she took a drink of her coffee.

"Woody and Jordan came back from the strip and found my place flooded. Apparently there was some kind giant leak from my kitchen sink. They called my landlord and he is dealing with it now. I gotta go and talk to him though can you cover for me?"

"Sure. No problem. Do you know how bad the damage is?"

"Bad enough that Woody and Jordan are checking into the Montecito tonight which means that I will probably have to find a place to stay until it's taken care of. Maybe Danny can get me a deal on a room so I don't have to stay in some dump." She said as she rose from the table.

"No you're not. You're staying with me." She didn't let the brunette get a word in before she continued. "I know what you really think of hotels Sara. We have processed enough of them together to know that you will not be comfortable there. I don't want to hear any arguing."

Sara was about to open her mouth to protest but was cut off, "I mean it Sidle. Go pack a bag and meet me at my place after shift."

The younger woman knew better to start a fight with Catherine once she has set her mind to something so she just said, "Thanks Cath," as she walked to the locker room to get her stuff.

Getting into her car Sara thought to herself, 'I am going to be staying with Catherine. God help me.'


Woody and Jordan were standing outside Sara's apartment waiting for their cab when Jordan received a text message. Jordan began giggling once she read it.

"What?" Woody asked when he heard her laugh.

She just handed him the phone so that he could read the screen.

"Have fun at the Montecito. Tell Danny I said hi. Going to be staying at Catherine's. :)"

"How did you know that she would be able to stay at Catherine's?" He asked as he handed her back the phone.

"I overheard Catherine telling Warrick how she just redid her guest room and is dying to put it to use. Now maybe it can be put to a little more use then she was originally thinking." She said with a smile.

"But what if nothing comes of this and you just flooded your best friend's apartment causing who knows how much money in damages for no reason?"

"Trust me Woody. Something will happen. And who said I am even done? I still have a plan or two bouncing around."

Woody groaned, "Please tell me that there isn't more property damage involved?"

Jordan shrugged her shoulders as she answered, "Not much."


Hope you liked it! :) I will try to get my other chapters up a little faster so that you can see what other shinanigans Jordan is up to!
