"Where are they?" Gracie growled, "tell me now."

"Listen, Gracie, Tyler, we don't know. Understand?" Elizabeth said, Gracie huffed. Tyler sighed, leaning against wall.

"Fine. Whatever. Find them," Gracie hissed, walking away. She opened the door, slamming it behind her.

"Sorry, she's​ just mad. I'll talk to her," Tyler apologized, he opened the door, walking out. He frowned, running up to Gracie.

"I see that you're mad, but you can't yell 24/7. I'm upset too, but it's not their fault," Tyler said, wrapping an arm around Gracie's neck. She looked up at him.

"I know I'm just....Angry, and....Sad," Gracie told Tyler. She leaned into Tyler. Tyler guided her to the car, she got in the passenger side, he drove to the M.O.A.

Gracie got out, seeing Eliana beside the huge building. She went over, keeling next to Eliana. The two smiled at each other. Tyler walked behind her.

"Hey Tye-Tye! Sup?" Mya asked, she ran over, her ponytail bouncing behind her. She stood as straight as she could.

She beamed, the facade she was playing would blind Tyler. Her beautiful face was like a mask, beautiful, and hypnotic. But, inside, lurked the evil creatures, if released from her pitch-black soul, they could kill Superman. But, what was on the outside counted, at least for a dangerous girl.

"Hello Mya,"  he greeted, standing in front on her. He rubbed the back of his neck, a nervous look on his face. Gracie stood up behind him. She gingerly looked over to Mya. She gave an unsure, and confused look.

"Who are you?" Mya sneered, glaring at Gracie. Gracie frowned, looking up at Tyler. She opened her mouth, ready to speak, but she couldn't.

"I'm his-his wife," she finally stuttered out. Mya gave her a bad feeling. Tyler seemed to like her though. She would usually just suck it up, and be their friend too.

"Ummm, no, I'm his girlfriend," Mya retorted, stepping closer to Gracie. Gracie pushed her away a few inches, growling.

Gracie wasn't violent. She always used that as a last reserve, though Mya got her going, like a wild animal. Tyler face-palmed, looking between the two ladies. Mya rolled her sleeves up, hissing at Gracie.

"Bitch, I can mess you up," Mya threatened, jerking forward. She fizzed, pushing Gracie to the sidewalk in front of her. Tyler knew he had to end it, but he thought it was comforting knowing that two girls would rip each other apart, just for him.

Mya got on top of her foe. Tyler pulled her off. Reid barked as he ran towards them. The big German Shepherd attacked Mya. Gracie got up, walking to Tyler.

"Your girlfriend?" She snapped, looking up at him. She continued glare. Tyler began to speak, but she cut him off.

"I-"

"Let me finish that for you. I am sleeping on the couch, for the rest of my natural human life! The bed is mine, plus you have to sleep in the damn cold, you asshole! Fuck you!" She screamed. Everyone's attention was on them. Gracie's face was red. She jumped to a conclusion, which was a wrong one.

"I didn't-"

"I didn't mean to cheat on your WIFE HOW COULD YOU?" She wiped her tears. Gracie went straight to the elevator. A tall guy was in there.

Gracie paid no mind to him, she didn't have to he means nothing to this story. He's just looking for a detective, to solve a murder. Gracie (and Tyler) are on a case, so Hunter would sign him up to another detective.

The elevator stopped, and she got off. She fixed her messy hair. She wiped her tears away until she saw Emma. She shook her head, walking past her.

"Grace, what's wrong?" She asked, her voice filled with concern. Emma walked beside her. She wrapped an arm around her waist.

"Tyler cheated on me, with a blonde girl," she said, Emma's jaw dropped, a blush spread across Gracie's pale cheeks. Emma tilted her head up.

"TYLER CHEATED ON GRACE WITH A BLONDE GIRL?!" She screeched, wiping some tears from her eyes, which had developed there when she was screaming, her pure loudness.

"Whoa, calm- what do you want?" She cut herself off, glaring at Tyler who had inserted himself into the area. He kissed Gracie, he was confused. What was he supposed to do? Gracie kissed back though, she parted soon, dragging Tyler to the office.

"I don't see you cheating, though," Gracie thought aloud. She rested her face in the palm of her hands. She sighed softly, looking up at Tyler.

"Did you really cheat on me?" Gracie asked quietly, looking at the computer. The building was on a budget, so they could but the new "computers". They're like the one you see on Sci-fi, the touch screen, maybe?

"No. How could I? I love you, babe," he said, hugging her tightly. She hugged back. After an uncomfortably long time, she shook him off, turning her computer on. The screen flashed. Soon, it turned all black. Green text appeared on the screen.

"I am not in the mood," Gracie whined, turning her computer off. She stood up, walking over to the phone.

"Hello, this is Gracie, floor 3, and room 221C. I'd like to send a electronic man down. Thank you. Mhm. HIM?! No, no, he's okay. Thank you," Gracie spoke into the phone. She hung up, turning to Tyler.

"It's your boyfriend~" She joked, sitting back on her chair. Tyler rolled his eyes behind his sunglasses.

"Why do you wear your glasses inside?" She asked, leaning closer too him. He smirked.

"Why do you wear your glasses inside?" He copied, hugging her again. She hugged back. On occasions she'd wear a pair of glasses.

"Ya mind?" James McCouley asked from the doorway. They turned to see the ginger smirking. He walked over, kneeling in between them. He began to type.

"Well, looks like you messed this thing up. He hacked in pretty damn deep. Even, I, the great computer wiz can't fix it. I'll give my friend a call, she's better than me."
