I'm sorry Sir Trekker said.
How was your stay at the homicide department Christopher asked.
What..huh...oh..ah..it was an experience..it was okay Trekker said.
Did they treat you well .
Better than here... wait sorry that came out wrong..they were nice.. I'm sorry sir Trekker said starting to feel nervous.
You must have really liked it there huh.. anyway The other rookies had been partnered up with veterans to teach them and you don't have a partner..so I'll be your partner until we decide y'all don't need chaperons understood.. Christopher asked .
Yessir Trekker said kissing his freedom goodbye..he was wondering how he was going to ever sleep now.He just hoped he didn't have to stay in this office with his old time crush.
That being said, since I'll be your training officer ..I want you where I can see you..so you'll be staying here from now on Christopher said.
Yessir Trekker said sighing in defeat..At least he wasn't getting punished for the incident earlier he thought.
He would just have to look for other training officers or get transferred to keep training under his ex partner from the homicide unit.. it's not like the two units training ways differed that much.
Also I never got to return your phone... Christopher said.
Oh I bought a new one.. that one is a burner phone it doesn't matter anymore Trekker said.
Why did you use it Christopher asked.
Trekker kept quiet..he pressed his mouth into a thin line and Christopher knew it meant he'll keep quiet..
Forget it.. come help me finish this paperwork Christopher said.
Trekker did as told and sat opposite his Captain.
THREE HOURS LATER
Christopher finished his work and saw that Trekker was sleeping.He smiled at him.
Just then Trekker woke up with a jolt .He quickly looked around and went to a corner..he sat down and hugged his knees...he controlled his breathing... when he felt better he got up only to notice his Boss.
Captain.. Trekker said looking away.
Are you okay Christopher asked.
Yessir.... forgive me for sleeping it won't happen again Trekker said.
It's okay... c'mon it's lunch time Christopher said.
Trekker followed his Captain.He noticed they were on the third floor.He refrained from asking questions and just blindly followed.
They entered the meeting room and Trekker was surprised to see lots of food there and his old team laughing and eating.
There he is.. our guest of honour, his old partner Officer Amario said and the others cheered.
What's going on Trekker asked.
We solved the case thanks to your help...So now we are showing you how much we appreciate your help by hosting this small lunch party...
Brandon said.
I appreciate it but I was doing it to return back to my unit Trekker said.
You helped us and also we would like to have you as our rookie... what do you say Detective Decker said.
No Trekker said.
Bro didn't even think about it and answered..told y'all were wasting your breath Trey said.
Can you at least think about it Detective Donna said.
Hey you guys said I should bring him for lunch..we just borrowed him to you guys for two weeks and now you want him..No Christopher said.
He will make one hell of a detective...but he needs to belong to us so what do you say kid Brandon asked.
No..and also did you guys catch the accomplice... Trekker asked.
What accomplice Brandon asked.
Yeah Trek. What are you talking about Trey asked.
Trekker sat down and started eating the food on Trey's plate.
Trek. Dude..now is not the time Trey said.
I know..this is your thing though so connect the dots Trey and just think what you could have missed Trekker said.
Shit..shit .shit. the masks... someone was feeding him information and creating the masks for him Trey said.
Bingo and I only saw one suspect specialized in make up and creating life-like masks of people's faces... you better hurry before she gets rid of all the evidence when she notices her partner has been caught.. I'm sure the media has already broadcast the news of the chameleon killer that has been caught Trekker said and closed his eyes.
Detective Freddie and I will go Detective Decker said and they left.
Why didn't you tell us this long time back Brandon asked.
Skipped my mind and I was way too happy to leave I forgot about it... Trekker said slumping in the chair.
Don't tell me you are sleeping Brandon said.
You know it Cap... Trekker said.
