Case #445: El Paso Ln.

493 14 3
                                    

The rain droplets fell from the windows of the L.A.P.D. I slouch in my office chair, attempting to cure my boredom. I slouch low enough in the chair so I can only see the damp yellow glow of my lamp, surrounding the room. I begin to fiddle with my black suspenders, and sink lower beneath my desk. Until I hear my office door creak open. I bolt up, but slam my head on the bottom of the desk, attempting to stand. I fix my suspenders and shake my head, while standing up awkwardly. I hear a small chuckle, then a throat clearing.
"Detective Bergara? I have a new case for you." A warm woman's voice spoke.
I slowly open my eyes to find Asst. Paulette Mathews. To describe her would have been impossible for any living person. She was practically perfect. Her long brown hair had been straightened, like any other day. Her eyebrows were perfectly trimmed. She wore not too much makeup like most women do these days. She was wearing a black suit, along with a black bowtie, and a white button up shirt underneath. She was also clinging on to other files and possibly paperwork close to her chest, as always. But after a few minutes of me drooling, I had realized I was staring.
I anxiously picked at my fingernails and began to speak. "O-oh, really? I would l-like to know pl-please. I mean, n-not to be rude o-or anyt-thing. I just...you k-know. Uh, never mind. Heh."
Did I say speak? Sorry I meant; a complete anxious stuttering mess. Whenever I was near her, she made me feel like I would run miles just to see her smile. She was intoxicating.
She nodded. "Of course. Here it is."
I thanked her by nodding my head. The practical yellow folder slapped the desk when it had landed. I gulped and moved my hands towards the folder. I was expecting for Paulette to leave with the usual: 'Good luck detective,' with a wink and a smirk. Instead she asked: 'Where's you're partner?'
I cleared my throat. "Oh, uh. He's um... Actually, now that you ask that, I really don't know."
I turned my head in all directions, searching for my partner. But there no sight of him. Just before I was checking under the desk, even though I was just under there, I spot something crawling out of the office closet.
It came charging up to me, yelling. "Raaaaa!"
I jumped back not knowing what the hell the thing was. All I was thinking was: 'Oh fuck! Oh fuck! Oh fuck!' I flinched, screamed like a sissy, and climbed on top of my desk out of fear. When the thing got close enough, I could see that a very tall person had put on a stupid Jason mask from Friday The 13th. Soon amused laughter had erupted from the mask. The perpetrator removed the mask to reveal the asshole that is; Shane Madej. Or in other words; my longtime partner at the L.A.D.D. I slowly made my way down from my desk, ready to literately kill this man. I held the anger in, only because I didn't want Paulette to see the awful stuff I was about to do to Shane. But this of course wasn't the only reason I didn't give him shit about scaring me. He was definitely stronger and taller than me. Which made me think twice about "beating the shit out of him".
"Ah, yes my partner, Shane! He was of course hiding in the closet. What's new?" I announced.
"Yup! That's me!" Shane smiled.
He turned his head towards Paulette, and smirked devilishly.
"Why, if it isn't the best damn assistant by looks and just doin her job!" He smirked.
He swayed his body, uncomfortably closer to hers. All while smirking like a bastard.
"So, what's new?" He spoke in a seductive deep voice.
"Oh! Just a new c-case is all." Paulette blushed.
He made Paulette stutter!? Of all the damn people in the office? Jesus Shane, I hate you. I cleared my throat, getting everyone's attention.
"Well! We better get started on that case, shall we Shane?" I emphasize Shane's name to let him get the idea.
Shane smirks again. He relaxes his face as well as his posture. As he towers over Paulette, I glare at him as Paulette moves to the doorway. She exhales and smiles uncomfortably at me. She walks away clinging onto the files against her chest. Great, now what's it gonna be like after we see each other again? Its not like Shane doesn't hit on the other women at the office. Its his job to do that stuff. I focus my attention back to the towering man. I don't tell him anything until he starts to laugh again.
"Dude, what's your problem? It was a joke!"
"Oh really? Cuz it looked like you definitely weren't just hitting on someone." I spit.
"Come on, you know I don't even like her! She's your kinda gal." Shane explains pointing at me.
I scoff and turn towards the file on the desk. I try to ignore his whole existence. But he keeps bugging me by repeating my name in a monotone voice. I cave.
"Shane, its nothing new. Really." I sigh.
"Ok fine, just wanted to annoy you." Shane breathes.
I already have my nose buried in the files contents, filling my brain with the knowledge of the case. Shane pokes my sides to annoy me this time. I groan and hand over the file to his giant, bony hands. When he finishes he prods me with more questions. I don't answer any of them, as I grab my black trench coat and strut out of the office. Shane follows closely behind while still asking the questions. When we are outside of the department, I tell Shane to get in the parked 2013 Black Chevy Camaro.

Shane refuses to get in unless I tell him where were going.
"Shane, were headed to the crime scene." I sigh.
When Shane faceplams himself, I just wanna choke him more.
"Were headed towards the El Paso Neighborhood?" Shane asks with big eyes.
"Yup, The El Paso Neighborhood." I repeat.
