Chapter 24

Vince's POV

John Corabi is gonna be in jail for 6 months. But Sixx on the other hand, has nothing to do with this case, which is kind of suspicious. Since Moira became detective I became her helper. Can you imagine? When she first came here I had to ask her for help. But now? She can take three cases at the same time and solve them. She doesn't even need my help. Back to that bastard. Moira met him again and since then her anger kind of started floating around the station freely. There she comes, beautiful and... oh come on. Why?

"Hey, Moira. What's up?" Ouch, she's grumpy as a cucumber.
"Nothing. Where's my coffee?"
"On the table. What's going on lately? It's like a demon is triggering your consciousness."
"No, nothing. I just-"
"You need a break."
"No, I don't. I'm okay. I'm just wondering..." Let me guess. She's been suspecting Nikki as well.
"May I help you?"
"I don't think it's a case for you." She still loves him. I knew it. I fucking knew it.
"Nikki, right? You're suspecting him because he had nothing in common with John."
"Why you're not the main detective anymore?"
"Because you solved bigger cases than me. And also you're better detective than half of the town. If not already the best one."
"Aw, Vince. Thank you. Actually I'm better now."
"Also, don't think about the Sixxter, I got this."
"The Sixxter? Wow, why is that?"
"I'm tired of calling him names. I just wanted to mess around with his second name."
"Hmm... Sinister Sixxter."
"Hahaha, that's cool."
"Yeah, thanks for cheering me up. I have work to do so..."
"Yeah, me too."

I hope she's ok. Stacey's getting married in a week. I hope Tommy's gonna be the best husband for Stacey. I'm sure she's gonna be looking good in white dress. Moira has to ask Mick for a break. It's not fair. She must help her sister get prepared for the wedding. Maybe I should talk with Tommy. Probably he may need some help.

Moira's POV

I'm not okay. I can't stand this anger. I can't explain why is that happening. I just sit there and wait for my intuition to lead me. But since I met Nikki again my thoughts are concentrated on him. I don't even try to forget him. Why? Is it because of the kiss? Oh God I remember how he pressed my body to his. It was unreal. Sometimes, I daydream about it. What would have happened next if we weren't there, but in his big mansion. Oh, his mansion is still in his possession. Maybe I can sneak through some door and hide there. Now, WHAT THE HELL? DETECTIVE ADAMS, YOU SHOULD BE GLAD HE HASN'T KILLED YOU, YET. He's out of prison. I can see him anywhere. Maybe I should just go to Timothy's restaurant. He goes there frequently. Damn when am I gonna stop thinking about Nikki? Just stop. But first, I must ask Mick for a break. My sister's getting married NEXT WEEK.

Well, that was unexpected. I have one month break. I said to Mick I needed two weeks only. But he said "No, you're gonna have one month. Now get out of here." He's so funny. I love Mick, he's the best inspector I've ever known. The fact that he and my father used ot be in one university just... Oh God, I miss my father. Well, to be honest I really really want to go tho the restaurant. Maybe I'm gonna see Nikki there. And since Tommy's his lawyer... Maybe I should invite him on the wedding. OR NOT. He's probably thinking of some murder plan. But what if he's trying to change? He didn't participate in John's plans. Or maybe that's a trap? I don't know what to think. Oh God, help me.

Now I'm sitting at the restaurant. This time I'm not disguised. Oh my God, he's here. Oh God, all tables are full. He'll probably go out. Or not? Oh my God, he saw me. Okay, he's coming my way. He seems to try giving me a smile. Oh God, he smiled. Well, this time I gave my respond. He's coming...
"Wow, I can't believe we're meeting again." Well, I kinda believe it.
"Yeah, it's been 3 years."
"May I sit with you?"
"Of course, sit."
"Thank you."
"Wow, your hair is... different." I had to act it out. But to be honest, I still can't believe it.
"Oh, I knew you're gonna notice. And you're the same beautiful angel who stole the devil's heart." Okay, that was unexpected. Did he really say I stole his heart?
"Um... What should we order?"
"Actually I'm not hungry." Me neither.
"Then something else to drink? My treat."
"Your treat? Nah, I won't allow you paying for my drink."
"Okay, Sixxter."
"Woooow, is that my nickname?"
"Vince came up with it." Maybe I shouldn't have said that.
"Oh, I thought he hated me. I killed his fiance."
"He still hates you, but maybe his mouth started to hurt every time he had to give you names or swear. I even added on to your nickname."
"What's it?"
"You're called Sinister Sixxter."
"Hahahaha, I love this one." Such an easy way to make former criminal laugh.

"I'm glad you're better now."
"Who said that?"
"Oh, I'm sorry."
"Well, to be honest, if I get a glass of wine I'll get better."
"That's what we're drinking tonight. I'm having a break."
"Break? Oh I almost forgot. Tommy invited me on his wedding. When I found out his future wife is your sister I almost freaked out. I'm so happy for them." Hmm... Are you sure you're happy for them? Or you're trying to act nice in front of me?
"Yes, I'm so excited."
"Oh, but maybe you won't be glad if I'm there. It's okay, I'm gonna-"
"No, no, no. You can come. It's okay." Ah Moira, you're so stupid. It's like you're still that sixteen year old girl who's in love with Nate.
"Are you sure?"
"Yes, I am."
