• A Dream of Crime   He Left.

  Jesseye came down from her loft about an hour or two later, rubbing her eyes and sighing deeply. "Where's Shane?" she asked softly.The older woman didn't even bother looking up, "He's gone. He won't hurt you anymore, Jess." she said with a shake of her head, painting a fresh coat on an old mustang.She blinked her surprise, "Wh-what?""He left, sis." Jazza reiterated while dipping her brush in a can of metalic paint, "He took his cut and went." She reported as if she didn't care either way.Tears welled up in her puffy eyes, "Was, was, that why you were yelling?" Jesseye asked hoarsely before drawing conclusions and clenching her hand into a fist,"You kicked him out?!"Jazza's brows arched together. She set her brush down in a safe space and looked up, "You're mad at me?" she asked in a tone as cool as ice,"He hurt you." She nearly growled, pushing herself up from the g

• A Dream of Crime   A Step Too Far

  Maybe he was feeling sick? What if he was catching a cold from their walk a couple days ago? But that didn't make any sense! It might be fall, but this was the south. It didn't get cold here till at leastOctober, "Shaannnee," she called softly, slowly opening the back of the van and peaking in. He really was sleeping? "I get that we headed in late, but dang." she chuckled lightly, holding her hands on her hips as she stood over him. Her heart hummed at how relaxed he looked drooling on his pillow. His dark brown hair hung haphazardly over his eyes. It was so cute!Though his blankets were almost over his head, she could see that shape of his arms crossed over his chest. He was snoring, dead to the world. He usually slept in on off days, but this was late even for him. His body had been under a lot of tension recently. It didn't like the new job he'd started taking on the side. Not now, but to the outside world, they needed to keep up appearances o

• A Dream of Crime   A Broken Man

  Scarlet's raven haired girl friend shrugged while sipping her small plastic cup of water,"You've been gone, Scar." Jasmine excused simply.Scarlet looked out at the dancers and sighed,"Too long. You've got to remind me to take a break every once an a while," she feigned disappointment for a moment only break into a smile once more,"I still wish I could've introduced my partner to you guys. He's shy and kind of messy, but an honest, caring guy." she said softly, watching people dancing a bit sorrowfully. After a moment, she looked back to her friend and gave a nod. "I think you'd like him, Jasmine."*&^%$*&^%$*&^%$*&^%$*&^%$*Bart groaned upon waking. His head pulsed, his blood pounded his ears. What time was it? He drug his phone from the floor and punched off the sound. The exhausted man stared blankly at the coffee table across from him. Apparently he had fallen asleep on his couch. He looked

• A Dream of Crime   Fun Without Him

  Good news was, Scarlet was would still be having fun without him. Maybe they could find some other friend activity that they bothenjoyed?Believe it or not, Scarlet didcare about him, but not in the way he obviously wanted. At least the beginning lesson was half way over.All the real dancers arrived in the last fifteen minutes. Normally she would've too. Scarlet snickered excitedly when she saw a few familiar faces, "Rich, Scott," oh she squealed when she saw her female friend in sucha beautiful dress, "Awe Jasminnee!" She smiled at her friends after tackling all of them into hugs,"Awe you all look amazing~!"Scott scoffed and popped the collar of his black button up. "Duh." he said as if it wasn't obvious already.She snickered and shook her head, "Men," she whispered mockingly to Jasmine.Rich snorted, hitting him playfully on the f

• A Dream of Crime   A Disappointing Dance

  While the crooks slept late into the morning, the detectives enjoyed some cheap Chinese at Scarlet's house for lunch,"So they left another note?" she asked with a laugh, glancing at the pictures of the two crime scenes for similarities. There wasn't much.Bart nodded while handing her the note. "Yeah." He said, shaking his head. "They left one at the last scene too. Just to toy with us."She chuckled lightly, "Yeah. Always so snide," she scoffed, picking a piece of chicken into her mouth with a chopstick.He looked at the two notes of the same handwriting and sighed. He groaned and rubbed his head. Scarlet looked slightly concerned, "Sorry, I have a headache.." he said sadly, setting them down on her coffee table. They had already been analyzed so it didn't matter if a little food contaminated them now.She glanced to a full water bottle that came with their food, "Maybe you're dehydrated? Drink up."

• A Dream of Crime   Ready for Round Two?

  "Lemme get out of this, okay?" Jesseye asked before bouncing out of the van and into the garage to change.Jazza bobbed her head before climbed out as well. Glancing back at Shane, she asked,"How's another round at Tony's sound?"Shane shrugged as he scrounged through his cloths bin. "I'm down."Jazzabella smiled and sauntered inside after her housemate, grinning at her place. This money was helping her achieve her dream too. She'd been able to upgrade the shop, replace Gramps' old tools, buy a new creeper, and even get a new stove for Jess. The dark skinned woman snickered lowly to herself upon entering the back apartment. Not to mention she'd purchased some more makeup to impress a certain someone.Shane pulled down his new T then hopped out of his van and headed in after the girls. "I think we should walk today." He proposed with a smile, leaning against the work table with his hands in his pocket
