"I've got a male...no wait two males and a female over here" Harry called from behind Nikki where he was crouched about two meters away from her at an open grave that he had carefully dug away. Nikki was crouched down next to the grave that Alistair's young son had found and looked at the two slightly decomposing bodies. One was male and the other female and she relayed this information to Harry and then looked back down at the town below them.
"It's hard to imagine that none of the residents saw anything" he called over to Harry "I mean it's not like it's busy and the killer can use the crowds to cover themselves up, and what about Alistair, oh sorry should I say Mr Boyd, he should have seen something it's at the back of his own bloody field"
"Not getting annoyed are we my dear?" Harry smirked as Nikki turned to look at him "All this male dominance must be really annoying you"
"You know it bloody well is" Nikki snapped at him, she didn't mean to, she knew he was joking but it still annoyed her. Harry didn't seem to take her tone to heart but smiled slightly at her before turning back to the bodies in front of him.

"Well that was hard work" Harry moaned as he leant on the side of Alistair's van, he and Nikki having just loaded the last of the bodies after hours of digging them up "You know it's going to be hard, this case I mean, we don't have our proper equipment or the backup of the police if anything goes wrong"
"Well I like a challenge" Nikki shrugged as she closed the van door "Come on quickly before they decompose even more" she held her hand out to Harry "Key"
"Excuse me?" Harry asked as he raised an eyebrow "I'm not sure they" he motioned with his head towards the town below them "Would be happy to see you driving"
Nikki let out an exasperated groan and stomped moodily to the passenger side of the van as Harry smirked smugly.
------
"At least they have decent morgue facilities" Nikki moaned as both her and Harry walked into their temporary home after performing three of the five bodies "I suppose that's something"
"You just hate the fact that I have power over you" Harry laughed at the look on Nikki's face as she poked her tongue out at him, too tired for any comeback "Oh very adult"
"Oh go away" she whined "I'm tired"
"Well go to bed then" Harry pointed to the stairs "I'll join you soon"
Nikki flushed slightly at his words and turned to look behind her at the clock on the wall to hide this from Harry, it was almost half past eleven.
"Don't be long then" Nikki replied eventually as she turned to look at her best friend who she realised was standing very close to her, completely ignoring the rest of the space in the hallway they were standing in.
"Yes dear" Harry said sarcastically and Nikki just sighed and walked past him, she could feel his eyes on her all the way up the stairs.
Nikki was already laying in the dark when Harry walked into the bedroom, he seemed to think she was asleep as he didn't put the night on and crept around the room quietly. Nikki heard him pull his t-shirt off and had to stop the images that flew into her mind. Harry then walked through to the bathroom to brush his teeth and then back into the bedroom and climbed into bed. The memory of the position they had woken up in jumped to the front of Nikki's mind and she once again felt herself flushing, she didn't think she had blushed so much in her life, no man had ever made her blush as much as Harry did and he didn't even try. What Harry did next shocked Nikki so much she didn't know what to do, he leant over and in the dark pressed a kiss onto the top of her head still thinking that she was asleep, he then turned over and lay down leaving Nikki with a smile on her face as she fell asleep.
As I was asked nicely here is another chapter, sorry it's so short. I'm working on the next few as we speak so I dunno when they will be up.
