When Harry, walks out of his office building a week later with Gerald, he is not expecting FBI agent Diego Santiago to be standing there waiting for him by his van.
"Ah, looks like your boyfriend is here." Gerald teases.
"Relax."
"See ya, man."
"See you."
Gerald parts ways and Harry slowly walks up to Diego.
"What are you doing here?"
"I see you took your work van today. Must be doing what I think you're doing." Diego says.
"Feeding the homeless? Yes."
"I knew it."
"You still didn't answer my question. What are you doing here?"
"Wanted to talk to you about something. Something that should keep you safe."
Harry already knows what he means. It's probably something about him, The Long River Strangler. He looks around nervously.
"Uh... okay. What's new?"
"Not here. Let's get in your van and drive."
"My van? Why?"
"To talk privately. Duh."
"If I get in my van and drive, that means I'm headed to the Farmers Market to get crates of peaches and then I'm immediately headed to the shelter to feed."
"I know. I can go with you. We can make it like a date thing."
Harry narrows his eyes at him. "You've been making a date thing quite often lately. But I'm going to be honest. I really don't think I'm dating material. I don't know how to date."
Diego smiles softly at him.
"You don't have to know. You can just go with the flow until we figure it out."
Harry hates that answer. But right now arguing about it is not the best idea. Especially when there's things he still doesn't know.
"Okay then. Are you just leaving your car here?"
"No. I took a cab today."
"Oh. That's good, I guess. Hop in."
They get inside his van and head off towards the market.
"So... what did you want to talk about?"
Diego sighs heavily.
"Erwin Robinson was found two days ago. A motel worker at the La Posada de Domir found his body in one of the rooms."
Harry does all he can not to smile, He likes the idea of them finally finding their latest masterpiece.
"I didn't read anything about anyone finding him."
