�Me too my lord,�  I thought.  I saw him smile as our thoughts went together.
�She�s truly special dear Howard.  A keeper, never lose her,� Kevin said.
�I don�t wish to,� he said, sitting down on the bed.  He leaned over and kissed me, passion surging through us.  He pulled away and smiled at me.

I felt someone shaking me and I finally woke up.
�You know, you�re really starting to scare me,� Kevin said.
�Yeah yeah, just leave it alone.�
�This is the second time you�ve hit your head.  Are you okay?�
�Yeah, I�m fine.�  I got up and walked back into the house.  �What time is it?�
�Time to get ready for work.�  I nodded my head and followed him into the house.  I ran up to the bathroom and quickly took a shower.  I got out and got dressed.  My black pants, black tank top, and my leather jacket.  I grabbed my glasses and purse.  I set on the couch, waiting for Kevin.  He looked me up and down and smiled.  �Death is upon us.�  I smiled and kissed him.
�I just felt like wearing it.  So sue me.�  He laughed and we walked out to the car.  He opened my door and I climbed in.  He closed it and walked over to his side and climbed in.

I sat at my desk, looking at pictures of Stacy, and two other victims found two days ago.  The bodies looked a lot the same and all three were found in the woods.  I shook my head, not understanding any of this.
�And nor would you Theresa,� a man said.  I looked up and saw Kevin standing there with another man standing next to him.  �Let me introduce someone.  Howard, or better known as David.�
�Theresa,� he said, nodding his head. 
�Hello.�  He walked into the room and stood behind my desk.
�How are you?�
�I�m good.  And yourself?�
�Good.  Searching for you.�
�I know Howard.�
�Of course you do.�  He smiled and sat down on my desk.  �Come, I haven�t seen you in so long.�  I stood up and stood between his legs.  �Do you know how much I have missed you?�  He grabbed my neck and pulled me against him.  His lips connected with mine and many feelings hit me full force.  My heart was pumping and the blood was pounding in my ears.
�Boss, woah, excuse me.�  I quickly pulled away and looked at one of the cops.  I smiled and moved away from Howard.
�It�s okay.  What can I do for you?�
�Kevin needs you at a crime scene.�
�Thanks Josh.  Radio him and tell him I�ll be right there.�  He nodded his head and left.
�Now, Kevin, Howard, please excuse me.�
�Of course.�  With that, they left just as quickly as they came in.

I climbed out of my care and walked over to Kevin.  I covered my mouth as the smell was horrible.  I looked around the scene, trying to find anything out of the ordinary.
�You�re not going to find anything, so don�t try,� Kevin said.
�Yeah, I figured.  What happened?�
�No one knows.  The building had just finished burning.  The stench you�re smelling is the body still burning.�  I groaned and shook my head.
�So, we had no idea what happened to the person?�
�None whatsoever.�
�I see.  You know, was the fire station called?�
�What do you mean?�
�Those truck�s engines were still hot when I walked by them.�
�Okay.�
�Kevin, they haven�t been here that long.  They should have been here right away.�
�Yeah.�
�Who called them?  Where�s the chief?�
�Talking to that lovely reporter.�
�Of course.�  I shook my head and walked over to the chief.  �Excuse me Richard, I need to talk to you.�
�Oh, Miss Lambe, you joined us.  What a pleasure.�
�Shove it Richard.�
�Miss Lambe, do you think I could get an interview with you or Kevin?�
�I�m sure Kevin can do it Miss Winters.�
�Thank you.  And thank you Richard.�
�My pleasure Joan.  So, what�s up Theresa?�
�Richard, we�ve known each other for a while now.  We always help one another.  We tell each other everything.�
�Yeah.  Where are you going with this?�
�When was your station called and when exactly were you called?�
�We received the call about an hour ago and we got there about 40 minutes ago.�
�and had the fire been going?�
�Actually, as we pulled up, it had started.  We were amazed, so it took us a second or two to finally gather our senses.�
�I see.  And did you know there was anyone in there?�
�We had no clue.  We thought they had escaped.�
�One last question.  Who made the call?�
�A guy with an English accent with the name of David.�
�Thank you Richard.  You�ve been a great help.�
�Anything you want you know you got.  And you might want to go save your honey over there.�  I turned to see the reporter flirting with Kevin. 
�I should save him.  Once again, thanks.�  I gave him a quick hug and quickly walked away towards Kevin.  I wrapped my arm around his waist and he looked down at me and smiled.  �Hey,� I said.
�Hi.  Did Richard give you any help?�
�Yeah, he did.  I think I know what�s going on, but it�s going to sound crazy.  And I can�t file it cause I have no proof.�
�I�m sorry.�
