(sorry if there is any mistakes this was very rushed!!)

"So y'all are telling me this is the firearm... Rafe Cameron used to kill Peterkin with?" JJ spoke before anyone else could, "That's exactly what we're telling you Shoupe" his lips went in a thin line, Pope continued for him "And the exact same firearm that Ward just used to kill Gavin" Shoupe looked at them, he has to believe then now right? The gun was sitting right in front of him. "And where's that corpse again?" he said, questioning them, "Didn't you look?" Kiara spoke firmly, Shoupe looked at her, all three of them couldn't believe he was letting this go, "I checked the hospital, I want by his house. He was out" They had enough "He was out?!" Kie practically spat the words out, "No shit cause he's dead Shoupe!" JJ followed, Kie kept talking "Listen to yourself it came perfect sense!" "Just because he's not in his damn home, does not mean he's a victim of homicide" he said, putting his hand down on the table, Kie look right at JJ, "What?!" she breathed out, JJ pointed at Pope, "I told you pop- You gotta be kidding me" He took his hat off and squeezed it in his hands "What are you talking about! Are you at least going to send it in for ballistics and shit or are you just going to sit on your ass?!" Kiara said motioning toward the gun, "No he's just going to sit there and wax that damn mustache! Is that even real come on!" JJ yelled, Shoupe stood up out of his chair and Pope turned towards JJ "Shut up JJ!" Shoupe was walking around his desk to them, Kie's elbows were leaning against the desk with her head in her hands, Pope was still looking at JJ "Oh I'm sorry did I hurt his feelings" "Shut up!" Pope yelled at him again, Shoupe opened the door and held it open "Get out" he said, anger boiled up in JJ's chest, "Are you serious?" he said "I got work to do, and y'all are smelling up my office" JJ slammed his hand down on the same, it didn't startle Kie, but was enough of a bang to put her head up and show her scrunched up face and the tears forming in her eyes, Kie stood up and looked at Shoupe, "Did Ward bribe you?" she shook her head "This doesn't make any sense?" she had enough, she walked out, JJ followed after her quickly "You ain't gonna do shit" he said to him quickly "Out!" Shoupe said back, JJ put his hat on when he was walking up to Kie, when he caught up he put his hand on the back of her neck as they were walking, she put her head down, "This is all bullshit" He said to her under his breath, she put her hand on his bicep and rubbed it, and then put her arm around his waist, it was then, she let herself cry, for them and for John B and Sarah.

They all went back to Popes, Kie didn't want to go home right now, but she needed to shower, she used the outside shower and JJ sat on the bench waiting with a towel while she did, she didn't want to be alone. "Oh my god that was disgusting"  he put her hand over the gate, mentioning for the towel, he had a towel and her knitted sweater in his lap, "Here" he handed it to her, "Thanks" she said. He was sitting on one of the restaurants benches waiting for her to get changed, when she was done, she came out, drying her hair with the towel and sat in the sport next to him, he always loved how she smelt like a mix of coconuts and some sort of fruity spray, even after she just came out of a sewer, "I feel like an actual human being again" she said, putting the towel to the side and running her hands though her hair, "Yeah well you actually smell like one now" he said looking at her, she smiled and looked down at her hands in her lap, he moved closer her and nudged her side, he waited until she was looking at him to speak, "We'll get him" he said, she nodded "Don't worry about it, ok?" "Yeah" she said under her breath, she wanted to believe him, but there previous attempts have proved otherwise, she looked down again, "Hey" he said, getting her attention this time by turning her around to look at him by putting his hands on her shoulders, she rolled her eye smiling, he let out a small chuckle "I promise" he said, reassuring her, this time it gave her a little more hope, she flung her arms so they rested on his neck, his hands went to the back of her neck, they both looked at each other for a moment, and then, it was like they were the only two people in the world, he inched closer to her, letting her deiced what she wanted to do, she then inched closer, and touch her lips gently to his, it lasted 5 seconds, when she pulled away looking him in the eyes, they both smiled, she gave him one more kiss "We should probably go inside" he looked at her "Pope knows about us" he said, she dropped her head down, "Oh god", they had both dropped there hands off each other necks, he quickly put one of his hands on her leg "No, no, no, he's- he's fine it's all good" she looked up "Really?" she said, "Yeah we talked, and uh-" she started to smirk while he spoke, that's all it took to make him speechless "It's all good" he said again, she nodded, he stood up and put his hand out to help her off the table, she turned around and grabbed the towel, then she took his hand walking back.
