"Detective Boyle, Santiago." Captain Holt said, nodding in acknowledgement to both members of his team as they discussed a case involving a drug dealer and a herd of goats they had solved earlier in the week.
"Sir." They both nodded back to him in reply.
"Have either of you seen Detective Peralta so far today? I haven't seen him around the precinct this morning."
"Sorry Captain, not today, but Jake's probably doing something awesome and Jake-like right now, like, arresting an armed robbery single handedly or defusing a bomb set by terrorists or rescuing an ol-" Boyle said in admiration as a vision of his hero Jacob Peralta played in his head as Jake accomplished a number of heroic and ridiculously outlandish tasks but was cut off by a snappy comment from Detective Amy Santiago.
"Or he's still asleep or got caught up fixing his hair or something equally as vain."
Charles had to hold himself back as he listened to her slamming his hero.
But he understood that she was just still hurting from her and Jake's recent breakup.
Charles himself hadn't been able to sleep properly since the precincts power couple had split.
They had always been his..... Oh, what is it that the kids are calling it these days?... Oh yes, his OTP.
With Amy's gorgeous black hair and Jake's.... Well , everything they would have had the most beautiful kids. Well not as beautiful as his and Genevieves but close. Charles had been tossing and turning for the last 13 nights because his best bud and hero Jake wouldn't tell him what happened between Amy and himself to have caused this split. And if he didn't know what happened how could he fix it?
