Jaxon

Today felt so peaceful and clear,
like I had left myself in a different world, 'to new beginnings' I thought to myself as I poured myself a coffee.

I got my work uniform out of the closet and ironed it, I put on the radio and listened to 'Hold Me While You Wait' by Lewis Capaldi.
The song actually made me sad, I had to turn it off.. ' I wish that I was good enough, if only I could wake you up, my love, my love, my love, my love, won't you stay a while' it made me think of all the times me and Sofia had spent together, the fact I would possible not hold her again.

I shoved my work clothes on and headed out the door in a bad mood, how quick your mood can change is crazy..

I got in my car and headed to work. Once there I got out of my car and walked into my office.. I didn't want to work today but I thought it might take my mind off Sofia.

Why am I so obsessed with her..
I pulled our first body out of the freezer, women in her 20's , no sign's of a struggle or sexual Assault. I checked her blood's, no sign of any drugs.
"Where was she found?" I asked Brad.
He looked over to me. "In her bedroom yesterday morning.. "
"Okay, we'll put it down to heart failure" I filled out the report carelessly.
"there's slight bruising around her neck" Brad called out to me as I left and walked into my office.
I had to send this report to Ryder before she nagged me. I didn't have time for her today.

Once emailed I headed back to the freezers to do our next body.
Brad began "male 18 year's of age found in his car early hours this morning."
I looked at the poor dead bastard "see these marks? Previous self harming marks on his wrists.." I said.
"Oh, so suicide?" Brad questioned.
"Let's do a blood test and get it sent off straight away?" I said.
"I'll do that now for you."

I looked around the boy's body, no more signs of self harm let'a see how the test results come back.
Not long later the results were back.
"Theres a trace in there of pethidone in his system" Brad said.
I went over to find his notes, I looked to see what he could be allergic to, that was the first thing that came  up.

"Well he was allergic to pethidine that's what caused him to go into anaphylactic shock, must have cause his throat to swell until he could no longer breath." I checked his airways, as I suspected they were very swollen.
"Sooo cause of death was accidental?" Brad asked.
I couldn't be bothered. "Either that or the boy wanted to die in excruciating pain. You decide."
"I'll fill the out the form for you and send the rest off to Ryder." He said, he knew I was in a bad mood.
"Yeah. thank you, I'll go on my break now are you going to be okay finishing up here?" Hopefully he could handle it.
"yeah no problem" came his reply.

I headed out to my car, today I would of met up with Ezra after work, we always have brother dates since As long as I could remember,  it's going to be weird not seeing him.
My phone rings  it's Ryder.

Ryder; Jaxon, can you come back in? I need to discuss a few things with you.

Jaxon; yeah sure, I'll be 2 minutes.
'fuck' I thought. I didn't know what she wanted, so much shit was running through my head. Was it about the murders?
I turned my car around and headed to the office.
I ran inside my heart was pounding. I Didn't know what to expect..
The  atmosphere was tense as I walked into the morgue she stood there looking smug as fuck. I bet she was thinking 'I've finally got you now you sick son of a bitch' standing there like she had won the jackpot on the lottery.

She pulled out the form I had filled in for the suspected heat failure.. "where did you get heart failure from?" She quizzed me.
I was confused. "There wasn't any sign of abuse? Or struggle ma'am"
"Do your colleague not mention to you there were marks around this victims throat?" She said arrogantly.
Fuck, he had said something. "Uhm, not that I'm aware of.."
Brad jumped in "I did, just as you left the room you, seamed like your mind was somewhere else."
"I'm sorry" I said sighing. "it's just been a stressful day."

Ryder was pissed. "this is clearly a murder case Jaxon. The the fact you didn't see that show's you're not committed to your job, this could have gone undetected if it wasn't for Brad here. I'm putting you on suspension till further notice."
Now I was pissed. "Are  you actually fucking kidding me, I'm damn good at my job it was one mistakes!"
"It was one mistake that's cost you your job!" She soon left.

Was she actually for real, I was fucking good at my job, had been for years. I had  never once made a mistake till today. I knew that bitch had it in for me from the beginning.
I looked at Brad. "thank's mate, for having my back. Dick" I said sarcastically as I stormed  into my office and packed my shit and left quickly.

I went straight to the pub, I wanted to forget today completely!
'It's only 4 pm and I'm drinking already' I thought to myself 'fuck it, I've got nothing else to loose have I!'
I sat at the bar
"2 whiskey on the rocks please"
The bar man looked at me "you okay mate?"
I wasn't in the mood. "Look, I didn't ask for a conversation MATE, just 2 whiskeys on the rocks."
"Okay no problem." he slid them over to me.
"Just keep them coming" I handed him my bank card.

Not long after  I was standing on the table dancing, I knew how the strippers felt now, it was great being on the table, felt like all eyes were on me, they probably were I was making a spectacle out of myself.
But regardless of how I looked, I soon got everyone up and joining in, this was the most fun I had had in a long time.

But just as I thought the night couldn't get better, she walked through the door it was Ria, I had forgot how beautiful she was! Tall, blonde, my favourite, she looked stunning she came across to the table..
She looked amused. "you alright you up there" she asked?
"yeah wanna join me?"
"Just let me get a drink and why not!" She was in a bubbly mood.
She was definitely my type of girl, I couldn't  help but watch her walk towards the bar, her ass was out of this world!

She got me another drink and headed over towards me handing me a pint, she grabbed her beautiful blonde hair and began to put it up in a pony tail.
I was drooling over her. Wishing I could pull her by her pony tail and in to my bed.
She gave me her hand and I pulled her up on the table. We continued to dance the night away, she had moves, I thought 'you go girl!' Could she be my future, I had nothing to lose at this point.

The rest of the night was a blur. I Can't really tell you what happens next I'm afraid I don't even know!
