4. Best buds

D E J A

"Charlie, I really have to go to work." I laughed because my best friend wanted the deets on my promotion.

She was my best friend and has been since I was 10 and she was 8.

I quickly told her I loved her and that I'd see her soon before Murtaugh hollered at me.

"Robbery, let's go!" He hollered and I stood up quickly.

-

We pulled up to a crime scene involving a garbage truck and money from the local marijuana stores.

"Hey, yo!" Roger yelled at Riggs as we walked up to him.

"What the hell? I told you I was on my way!" Roger said and I rolled my eyes, punctual Roger was coming out.

"You told me, 'I'll meet you there'." "Yes, there, at the office!" Roger said and I chuckled.

"There means the crime scene. Hey Dej." Riggs nodded over at me, "Morning Riggs." I slightly smiled

"Maybe in Texas, but not in L.A!" Roger said and I sighed loudly.

"Okay! So, we have suspects fleeing right after removing the LoJack. We don't have any witnesses, except for a retired cop by the name of Ned Brower." I said because I looked at all the details while these two bicker.

"Ned Brower? That's my old training officer. Is he okay?" Murtaugh asked.

"He took a bad blow to the head, the EMTs are cleaning him up now." I said nodding towards him sitting in the back of the ambulance truck.

Roger left to go see what his old friend would say as my phone vibrated.

I got it out and looked at it, "Here, taste this." Riggs said handing me his coffee.

I gave him a weird look before taking a small drink from it, "It tastes like coffee." I gave him an even weirder look as I handed it back to him.

I looked back down at my phone, "Is everything okay? Ooh, peach Chapstick." Riggs said tasting the Chapstick I had on.

"Did you happen to visit the local pot shops today?" I asked sarcastically.

"Ha-ha. Who are you texting at a crime scene?" He asked and I sighed heavily.

"Charlie, my friend. I have to go, I'll meet you-" "There?" He smirked.

I laughed sarcastically, "Yes. Wherever that is. Just call me when you figure out anything." I said dialing on my phone.

"Is that a date?" He asked all giddy.

"I've marked it in my calendar." I joked with a wink as I put the phone up to my ear.

"Hello?" "Hey, Dr. Jones. I saw something about Charlie being rushed in just a little bit ago?" I asked nervously.

"Uh, yeah. She was feeling pretty gross and she had a small seizure-" "A seizure?!" I repeated a little too loudly.

I glanced behind me a few yards to see Riggs glancing at me with a worried look.
