Here chapter 3 3

Gene swirling the Quattro outside an old warehouse walking over to Chris and Shaz who were staring at a body which was lying on the floor in front of them.

Gene took one look at the body clicking his fingers "Rod Marshal"

Ray nodded remembering "Ahh I remember him, went he up in Manchester" He took another look at the body checking but there was no mistake it was defiantly him, his curly hair and scare across his cheek defining him made it sure.

Gene frowned "How the bloody hell do I know, why don't you ask him?"

Chris laughed at Ray and Alex rolled her eyes walking over to the body "What's that in his hand?" she asked kneeling down to take another look.

"Are you all going to ask me stupid questions today?" Gene kneeled down beside her and pulled it out of his hand.

"Guv, wait for…" Alex began but it was too late a piece of paper was now it Genes as he opened it.

Alex leaned closer to him to have a look at the note in his hand so close her hair brushing the side of his face.

This is where it ends;
you hurt me I hurt you

they looked at each other frowning "Well they obviously cared about him" Alex added getting to her feet.

Gene frowned "And how the bloody hell did you work that one out Sherlock?"

Alex took another look at the note "well it could mean to thing either Rod hurt them emotionally which will mean they cared about him or he hurt them physically, what do you know of Rod, what kind of man was he?"

"His dad was a violent bastered that's how we knew Rod his dad murdered their mom" Gene was now also standing walking back over to the Quattro.

o.O.o

Back at the station everybody got busy Chris and Ray were interviewing some witnesses, Alex was looking through Rods and his father's file and Shaz was stuck making Gene's tea while he stared at the note in front of him.

"Ma'am I got the results back he was stabbed in the neck bursting an artery" Shaz informed before handing Gene his tea.

"Guv!" Alex called when she had found a lead smiling at the paper in front of him.

Gene walked over to her desk "It better be good Bolly"

Alex smiled "Rod was brought in last year for domestic violence to his fiancé and when he was let out he came here, it now says he has a new fiancé" she pointed to a name "Beth Myles"

Gene nodded "Good Work"

Chris came him walking over to Shaz

"Your off again, get me a Beth Myles" Gene ordered rubbing his head in his hand he looked over at Alex and before heading off into the kitchen area to get himself some garibaldis.

Realising he had been in there a while Alex decided to go and make sure he was ok, she walked into the kitchen popping her head around the corner "Everything ok?"

Gene turned noticing her voice and nodded "Everything is fine Bolls" he reassured her.

Alex smiled and moved past him to flick the kettle on "Chris and Ray have gone to get Rods fiancé, were bringing her in for questioning"

Gene nodded And moved out of her way so she could make her tea.

"Gene about this morning I…"

"Guv, Ma'am she's in the interview room waiting for ya" Ray interrupted.

Alex put the kettle back down walking towards the door "Best go" she smiled a little and headed towards the interview room with Gene following closely behind.

o.O.o

Beth's eyes light up as Gene walked into the room "Ooh Mr Hunt, Heard a lot about you" she took another look at him biting her lip as she smiled.

Gene sniffed giving her a quick smile he took a seat next to Alex who was looking between them both.

"Right love were hear to catch the bastered who killed ya fiance" Gene began Alex rolled her eyes "Always the sympathetic ay"

"No its ok" Beth said still gazing at the man in front of her "I'm sorry I may be usless to you I was as shocked at you guys"

Alex rolled her eyes "look it"

Gene took a look at Alex and grinned he had never seen her like this and he was quite enjoying it.

"Look I will try answer anything you tell me" she smiled.

Gene nodded but before he was being able to speak Alex cut in "So were where you yesterday at 10:34pm?"

Beth leaned back taking a cigarette out of her bag trying to light it

"Here" Gene offered leaned towards her as she leaned towards him, they were so close it was making Alex feel sick, she didn't know why she was reacting like this.

"When you're ready!"

They moved apart and Beth took a long drag "I was at home all evening, he said he was going to the pub with the boys"

Gene nodded "Alright love, do you know who he was…."

"Got anyone to witness that?" Alex was the one now leaning forward"

Beth was silent

"You see, I think he hurt you, I do and you didn't want to end up like Diana" Alex moved a photo of Diana in front of Beth who was looking away from the photo "And you couldn't take it so you killed him you stabbed him in the neck and you killed him"

"I… No! never!" Beth shook her head she tried forcing the teams from streaming but she couldn't.

"Come here" Gene walked over to her wrapping his arms around her.

When he looked back Alex had gone, what was wrong with her? He thought.

o.O.o

They had decided to call it a night and all headed to Luigi's, Gene found Alex sitting at her table swirling the wine in her glass.

"Penny for those"

Alex looked up and smiled weakly taking a sip of her wine "well today was a disaster"

Gene shrugged "Weren't that bad, we will solve it, Oi Luigi another bottle of your house rubbish mush"

"Well it you were more focused on the case instead of Beth's breasts then maybe we would have got some were" Alex added frowning as the image re entered her head.

"Jelouse Bolls?" Gene raised his eyebrow at her as her perfect face remained looking down at the deep red liquid in her glass.

"In your dreams" she muttered still looking down.

"So you wouldn't want a bit of the Gene Genie?" Gene carried on although he was smirking at her there was a tint of seriousness to his voice.

Alex shook her head "there's better"

"So you wouldn't want to know what it would be like to be kissed by the Gene Genie then?"

Alex was now giggling a little she then looked up at him she moved closer drawing Gene in close to "I don't think you would be as good at you make out Mr Hunt" she moved back downing the last of her wine and grabbing her jacket "Goodnight" she whispered heading up to her flat.

Gene sat back his heart was beating so fast he didn't think he could keep up he didn't think it was possible but he wanted her even more.
