A couple days later Ben was at the police station giving his statement. John wasn't on the case because it was too personal so he was sitting in the hall waiting for him to come out. When he heard the door open he looked up. Ben walked out followed bySam,Lydiaand Chickie. He stands up "Well"

Sam spoke up first "We got a statement you can go now"

John looks back at Ben "Can you guys walk him to the car I'll be right there."

"Ok" The three of them leave

John turns back to Sam and "Ok what's going on?"

"John you're not suppose to be on this case."

"Come on Sammy I need to know something."

Sam sighs "There were three guys that he described to us"

"Did you get a match?"

"No not yet"

"Call me if you find anything"

"John"

"Look either you tell me when you find something or I'm going to find it myself"

"Ok just calm down. I'll call you if we find anything I promise"

"Thank you"

"No problem now you better get out of here before boss sees us talking"

"Alright" John leaves

John drops Ben off and Chickie's house while he cleaned up the house. It was around nine when he decided to go back to Ben. Pulling up in Chickie's house his phone rang. Pulling it out he saw Sammy's name. He answers it "Hey what did you get?"

"We found one match this guy named Lewis Andrews do you know him?"

"No never heard of him"

"Well I'm going to pick him up tomorrow"

"Then come get me"

"No I can't you not suppose to be on this case"

"I can't just sit here and do nothing. Come get me tomorrow Sam"

"Ok just be ready by nine"

"Got it"

John got out the car and headed inside. He saw Ben watching TV on the couch. He walks over to him "Hey what are you doing up"

Ben looked over at John "Waiting for you, what took you so long"

"I was cleaning the house"

"No I saw you pull up. You were just sitting there"

"Oh I was talking to Sam"

"John"

"What?"

"You're not suppose to be on this case"

"I know but I can't just sit here while those assholes that attacked you are still breathing. I need to do something Ben"

"You could get fired"

"I don't care there not getting away with this."

Ben looks down "Just be careful ok I don't want to lose you"

John sits down next to Ben "You wont I'll be fine" John kisses Ben "Now come on you need to sleep"

John helps be up and they head to the guest room. Ben was lying on his side resting his head on John's chest. "John"

"Yeah"

"What are you going to do?"

"Sam found one of the guys. I'm going to go with him tomorrow to pick him up."

"Don't do anything stupid alright"

"I'll try, now get some sleep."

"I love you John Sherman"

John smiles "I love you too Ben Cooper."
