Chapter Two

An hour later…

FBI offices…

Megan was looking through the notes as she waited for Don to come back with his meeting with Merrick, as she thought about her brief talk with Aria, and her reaction to the possibility of a stalker.

'Fame certainly does things to people' She thought to herself, as she had heard of actors and other famous people having run-ins with the paparazzi and/or stalkers. While she herself has never been stalked, she could imagine the fear anyone, particularly women, would have when their privacy was invaded.

There was nothing too unusual about the case, though there have been a few cases where stalkers hid in their targets' homes. She actually felt for the couple, as she knew that having people following you around would make it hard to enjoy the success one had achieved.

'And I don't have enough for a profile yet.'

She was so deep in thought as she looked through her notes that she almost missed Don gently tapping her shoulder.

"Hey, Megan, you okay?" Don asked, concerned for his colleague, as he knew cases like stalking can be unsettling.

"Sorry, yeah, I was just thinking about Aria and what she had said."

Don nodded, as he too was thinking about it.

"So was I, and it's just an interesting indicator as to how the tabloids work." Don said, as he himself had never read those and he wasn't aware of anyone he knew who did.

"Yeah, to say the least," Megan said before changing the subject, "What did Merrick want to talk to you about?"

"The case, as apparently the reason we are investigating, is that there have been similarities to other stalking incidents of several other high profile people." Don answered, relieved that it wasn't something due to anyone's connections to the FBI, though he still felt that might be the case.

"Think it could be the same guy?" Megan asked, as she had a feeling that there was a reason they were called in.

"That's what the others are thinking but I am thinking about asking Charlie, just to see if we are missing something." Don said as he headed back to his desk.

Megan smiled, as she was hoping Charlie would provide some assistance, though she is hoping that the younger brother doesn't use any of her food for any of his demonstrations.

She made a note to discuss it with both brothers Eppes when she had the opportunity.
