"hello darkness my
old friend"

Warren Residence

5 months laterThe alarm clock on Lorraine's nightstand let out an ear piercing BUZ BUZ BUZ. A noise much to loud for 7am on a Monday. She had been meaning to get a quieter one for a while but their work had kept them very busy the past few months. After the case in Harrisville life seemed to be moving at 2x speed. The holidays had come fast, full of lots of family dinners, parties and church. Then before she knew it, Judy was on spring break and they took a family road trip all through New England. Now it was March and things had just began to settle down as they fell back into their normal patters.
Yawning, Lorraine turned off her alarm and sat up, rubbing the sleep from her eyes. The shower on in the ensuite told her that Ed had already gotten himself up. She knelled down at the side of her bed and said her prayers, a crucial step in her morning routine, then got up to go and awake Judy.
"Hey sweetie," she opened the bedroom door to find her daughter slowly opening her eyes. "Time to get up! I'll have breakfast ready in a little bit. How does eggs and toast sound?"
Judy yawned and sat up, "sounds great. Thanks mom." Judy took after her mother and was not a morning person. Ed had always been though. Ever since they where teenagers she always found herself waking up to him being fully awake and ready to start the day.
Lorraine smiled and closed the door. Walking to the kitchen she began to cook breakfast when the phone rang, the second loud BUZ to startle her that morning. "Warren residence, Lorraine speaking." She answered it.
"Good morning Lorraine, sorry to call so early."
Lorraine recognized the voice immediately, "good morning to you as well Father Gordon. It's really no problem I was up anyways. What can I do for you?"
"Ah well I'm glad I didn't wake you. The Church has a case they need you guys to look into. It's in North Carolina, I can give you the rest of the details when you come down to the church." He informed her.
Lorraine fidgeted with the phone cord, winding it and then unwinding it around her pointer finger. "Yeah what time do you want us to come down?" She glanced at her watch, 7:15 it read.
"As soon as possible would be great. There is a lot to discuss."
"Well I have to get Judy to school by 8 but we can come by after that, if that's okay."
"That would be perfect, thank you."
"It's no problem, happy to help. We'll see you later." And with that she hung up the phone and proceeded to make breakfast.
She was about to take a piece of toast out of the toaster when she felt two strong arms wrap around her waist. "Good morning honey," Ed said as he nuzzled his face against her neck.
