The next day in the bullpen they were all talking about the evidence in the new case. Bobby was interrupted by his phone ringing. Sue looked over at him and noticed he was talking to Jack. She walked back to her desk, not wanting to watch their conversation.
Awhile later Bobby walked over to Sue's desk and got her attention. "Hey Sue, can you do me a favour?"
"Sure, what is it?"
"Jack needs a few things from his apartment, and I just remembered that I have a meeting later with one of my informants. Do you think you can swing over to Jack's to get his stuff?"
"I don't know Bobby, maybe Jack wouldn't like me going through his things."
"It's okay Sue, it's just basic stuff like pyjamas, toothpaste, toothbrush, stuff like that. He won't mind, trust me."
Sue wasn't too sure about this. It seemed so intimate, going through his things, it was something that a girlfriend would do. But she planned on helping Jack out anyway she thought. She quickly pushed aside her reservations. "Okay, if you say so."
"Great!" Bobby said, and gave her the keys to Jack's apartment and the list of things he needed.
When Bobby walked away, Lucy glanced her way and gave her that smirk with a knowing look. She knew what Lucy was thinking and she just shook her head.
After work Sue drove to Jack's apartment. She opened his door and walked inside. She took off her jacket and placed it on the couch along with her purse.
It felt strange to be in Jack's apartment alone, she looked around taking in her surroundings. It was neat and clean, and it reminded her of Jack. She went to the closet and found a duffel bag she could put his belongings in.
She made her way into his bedroom, just being in there gave her goose bumps. This is where he dressed and undressed, she thought. Her mind began to fill with thoughts of Jack, imagining what he looked like underneath his clothes. Her cheeks burned as her skin became warm over the images in her mind. Sue quickly shook her head, she needed to focus she reminded herself. She began opening the drawers looking for his pyjamas. She found a pair of pyjama pants along with a matching shirt. She pulled it out of the drawer and all of a sudden a piece of paper floated onto the floor.
Sue looked down at the paper, it looked like a letter. It was partially open when she reached down to grab it. She was planning on putting it back in the drawer, but stopped midway when she saw her name in the letter written in Jack's handwriting.
