It was a normal day in New York well, it was normal for Lance McClain, a rich, famous mystery writer. All day he signed books for fans. Later that night he had a book release party and all the hardcore fans came, well only the fans that paid to get in. He loved his fans and he mostly flirted with them. " You look so handsome, mijo." Here we go again. Lance's mother always came to his book releases and congratulated him for his hard work.
Lance sighed and went back to enjoying himself. Lance had a hardcore fan that always came to book signings and book releases.
-Downtown-

There was a murder downtown and a very hard working and very attractive detective got a call about a murder in an apartment building. Keith has seen this before but it was in a book. "Poor girl, I want a autopsy on this body stat." Keith yelled at the team he brought. He knew tomorrow he was going to go after the famous mystery writer, Lance McClain

-Next Day-

Lance was chilling and thinking about what to write. Lance was having serious writer's block and the deadline was next month. "I guess I'm going to go to the library today." He said sighing. "Momma, I will be right back. I'm going out for a little bit." He yelled at her. "Okay mijo, be careful." She yelled back from her room. Once he got to the library he sat down in a corner of the building. Most of his time he enjoyed reading and learning from other people's work. He was happy in the silence until violet eyes met scared ocean blue eyes. "Lance McClain, you are under arrest for the murder of Alison Tisdale." The detective said with fire in his voice. "Who? I don't know who that is." Lance said confused and scared. "She was found murdered in her apartment in the same position as one of the characters in your book. She had rose petals around her and had sunflowers on her eyes. She was found on her table with three bullet holes in her." The detective said looking at Lance. "Okay, I don't know what your name is and I didn't kill this girl. I was at a book release party last night." Lance said with fear that he was being accused of murder. He couldn't believe that he was amazing at writing murder he didn't know someone would actually use it and make it look like he did it. "Oh sorry, I should have given my name before. My name is Detective Keith Kogane and I'm taking you down to the precinct to ask you some questions." Keith said kinda blushing. Keith has always liked Lance's work and he has been to a couple of book signings and has talked to him before. Keith took Lance down to the precinct and questioned him. "Hey, Keith I have a question?" Lance kinda looked nervous but didn't know why. "Yeah, what is it McClain." Keith looked at him with a eyebrow raised. "Um I thought you could be my inspiration for a new series I was writing." He asked shaking a little. "Um would that mean you would be shadowing me?" Keith said a little weirded about being followed. "I mean yeah, the character is going to be based on you." Lance said. Lance couldn't wait to follow Keith. It sounds weird but he needs someone to get a idea. "Um I need to talk to the chief about it first." Keith left to go talk to the cheif but some call her captain. "Um, Chief, I was wondering if Mc-" Keith said but got cut off. "Keith how mean times do I have to tell you to call me Allura. I know I'm your chief but please call me Allura. And I already know the famous writer Lance McClain is here and yes he can shadow you and if helps solve this case I will ask him if he would like to shadow you some more." Allura said as she sat at her desk giving him a smirk. "I also know you are a big fan of Mr. McClain and this is a big deal and I already know you like McClain and you can't hide it." Allura said still having a smirk on her face. Allura already knew Keith was gay. Keith came out to her and his friends. It was the Christmas party and he got drunk and came out to them. "Oh, um, yeah I do like him but I don't know if he is straight or not." Keith said looking a little sad. "Just get to know him. He might like you too." Allura said with a reassuring smile. "I think you are right, thank you." Keith said smiling walking out of the room. "Um, McClain you can shadow me and if you help solve this case you can shadow me as long as you want. I also want to get to know you so would you like to come and eat dinner with me?" Keith said a little nervous. "Um, sure I'll pay for your dinner. So it's a date." Lance said with a wink. He started for the exit but he stopped, turned on his heel and spoke "Oh and is 6:00pm good and if I will pick you up. I also need your number." Lance said with a smile than another wink. Keith chuckled a little and gave him his number.
