"What you here for?" Jesse asked Dustin as he laid back on the bed. Dustin felt dirty being in jail and he really didn't feel the need to talk to anyone, so he ignored Jesse. "Damn, nigga! You don't even have to talk then! Stay like that for your time here!"

Dustin shot Jesse a look and then shook his head. He didn't care about making friends or any of that but he figured that he should say something to the guy. "I don't know why I'm here." He told Jesse.

Jesse scoffed. "I told you, you can shut up for the rest of your time here! And that's a pathetic excuse too! You know you did something, man up and accept it bro."

"What the fuck did your little smart ass do huh?! Huh?!" Dustin ran up on Jesse an snatched him up. He didn't want Jesse to try to run him over like a little punk.

But Jesse smiled..


Dustin was being watched by The Allen Detectives and Officer Moore. Shawn was surprised at Dustin's reactions. He's been acting different since that day she interviewed him at the office. She shook her head. "This is all the evidence we've got on him. The hand and the foot of Mia's."

Officer Moore chimed in. "We've gotta keep him here though, Shawn!"

"We can't keep him here if he hasn't done anything you guys! We can't do that. Just like we let Patrick go, we've got to let him go as well." Kelly said.

"Right. Just like we still have suspicions about Patrick, we can still have suspicions about Dustin as well."

"I'm scared if we let him go, he'll try to run away."

"Put him on house arrest, Moore! Come on, think!" Shawn pointed to her head. "So what if Dustin's finger prints weren't on her body parts, no ones were but somebody cut them off! One of them did this and we have to find out."

"Are you sure this is the right thing to do, detective?" Moore asked. He was nervous about it all. He didn't want to end up accusing the wrong person.

"I'm sure." Shawn told him.

"I think we should keep him here a little while longer.. I don't trust him." Kelly said while slowly spinning around in his chair. Everyone decided that Dustin should stay a while.

The next day..

S H A W N

I headed back to Patrick's place while Officer Moore and Kelly went to check Dustin's house for some more clues. I was nervous because I didn't have my mic on me and Patrick would probably sense that and try me today. I hope he didn't. But this was my thrilling job and I had to do a lot to get what I needed.

I walked up to his door and knocked on it as I got a whiff of the aroma. Patrick had to be cooking. He opened the door with a apron on and a spatula in his hand. "Shawn, come on in..." He probably didn't want me to notice but his eyes lit up when he saw me. He smirked as I walked on in behind him. "I'm cooking breakfast.." He said.

Honestly, I was nervous. The apartment looked way different than it did yesterday, starting with the floor, it looked like he had been painting it all day after I left. The place smelled of paint as well. He had the place lit up, the curtains open and it looked as if someone lived here now. It looked alive. "Follow me to the kitchen.." I walked into the kitchen with him and noticed breakfast sitting on the counter, for two. I sat at the bar in front of one of the plates. He had sausage, bacon, eggs and pancakes. It smelled really good and it looked good too. He stood beside me. "You hungry?" He whispered in my ear and I instantly got chills from the sound of his voice. I knew I couldn't tell him no because I didn't want to start any confusion. I was scared of him, nonetheless so I nodded. "Good."
