"Louis hurry or we're gonna be late!" Carolina says throwing my coat at me.
"Can't we just skip it today? I'm so tired" I say yawning extremely loud for emphasis.
"You are aware we failed to attend last weekend because you were called in to investigate. Thomas will be saddened if we're not there today." Carolina says sternly.
"You're right. I wouldn't wanna upset my big brother." I say
We leave our house and make our way to our local Catholic Church. It's quite small and was only built last year. I'm not very religious but Carolina and my family are. My brother being the priest of that church. We arrive at the church and sit. They have already started Sunday mass. My brother was saying a prayer. We sat through mass and finished up.
"I'm glad you decided to come today Louis." My brother said
"Well Carolina is very dedicated." I say
"If only you were too. I'm sure mother would've loved to you become a priest like me" he says in a mocking tone
"You're right except I chose a career I actually love instead of following the influence of others" I fired back
"Woah lower the guns boys" Carolina says
"Carolina , lovely as always. How are you still with my brother?" My brother says
She does a curtesy and says "Oh Thomas you flatter me. I am ever so lucky to be with Louis."
"You know I'm kidding. Louis is great." Thomas says pulling me into a headlock.
"Ack! You're a priest and you're doing this! In a church!" I say pushing him away
"Oh please don't lecture me baby bro." He says grinning. I swear he's such child even though he's gonna be 27 this year.
"Tch don't call me baby bro I'm only 2 years younger than you." I say rolling my eyes.
Carolina and I finish our conversation with my brother and Carolina goes to speak with her friends. Harry isn't Catholic so I'm basically a loner here. Well at least I thought. In the corner of my eye I see a familiar face.
"No way Amelia?" I ask walking up to her.
"Detective what are you doing here?" She asked surprised
"Well attending mass of course. I've never seen you here before though." I say.
"It's actually my first time here. My mother recently started coming to this church and convinced me to come today. I'm glad she did I got to see you." She says smiling
"Your mother? I'd love to meet her." I say
"She's somewhere around here. Probably chatting with the other ladies." She says
"Well you look very interesting today. I thought you said dresses weren't your fancy?" I say.
She was wearing a light purple corset dress with white lacing. She looks amazing.
"Well, I make an exception for occasions like this. I can't be disrespectful. I don't want to get on his bad side." She says winking and points up to the ceiling.
"I'm sure god wouldn't mind seeing you be yourself." I say laughing.
"Im sure he would..." She says in a low tone. "Anyway, hows the investigation going?"
"Stressful but I've had the weekend off so I've been getting some rest. We have a long list of suspects that we are gonna be visiting tomorrow." I say
"Who are you suspecting?" She says tilting her head
"Well I can't reveal any names but it's a lot of people." I say
"Well get on with it quickly. No one is safe till that monster is caught" Thomas says putting his hand on my shoulder. "Oh a new face"
"Hello I'm Amelia Clarke" She says and curtesys
"I'm the priest of this church as you can tell from mass but I'm also this guys brother. Thomas Tomlinson." He says with a big smile on his face.
"You have a sibling, how sweet. It's nice to meet you. It's my first time here and I enjoyed it." She says smiling back
"I'm glad. Please do come a lot. God will help strengthen you and bless your soul." He says to her but turns to look at me.
"I get it Thomas I'll come more." I say sighing
"I'll make sure he does" Carolina says walking up to us. She looks at Amelia.
"You're so beautiful." Carolina says. She looks at Amelia. "Hello I'm Louis Tomlinson's betrothed."
"Oh you're betrothed..." She says looking at me. She turns back to Carolina." Well thank you , you are very beautiful yourself. It's a pleasure to meet you. I'm Amelia Clarke, a friend of Louis'?" She says looking at me again.
"Oh I wasn't aware Louis has another friend" Carolina says. "Especially a woman friend. A beautiful woman friend"
"We haven't known each other long Carolina she's the daughter of a newspaper writer from the Central News Agency" I say wrapping my arm around her waist.
"I see well it's nice to meet you. But I think we should get to know each other more. How about dinner?" She says
"I'm afraid I'll have to decline. I have business to attend to. I apologize." Amelia says "I should get going now. It's a long walk. I must tell my mother I'm leaving" she looks around
"Maybe next time" Carolina says
"Are you going to WhiteChapel?" I ask
"Oh goodness are you psychic?" She says smirking
"Amelia you shouldn't." I say concerned
"I have work to do I can't bail out." She says "Goodbye everyone. Goodbye detective" she says waving and walks away.
