"How long is Dr.Malik going to be with those mortuary reports? Does anyone have any idea?" Ugh Superintendent SwiftSilence. not surprising really, no-one talks to her unless absolutely necessary, we all hate her but she always persists
"Harry, do you have an ETA from Malik on those reports?" Great! I've been targeted now. can't get out of it
"No sorry Ma'am, I'll try and find out"
"No need to rush anything, just come into my office when you have them if you would" With that she turned around and walked down the corridor and back into that bat cave of an office. You see that sounded like a simple request from a senior officer, but no, that was a command that had her fluttering her eyelashes and forcing me alone in the office
Whilst I was trying to run away from my own thoughts Liam chirped up "Lucky escape there Styles" he was almost snorting with how much he was laughing
" 'Lucky escape' are you taking the piss? you did just hear her? shes just invited me into her office later. Great"
"Well at least you have some time to prepare" On a rare occasion Liam has made a good point
"Instead of preparing, I could be planning an excuse"
"As much as she is slightly creepy, and awkward, and slightly annoying and just bitchy in general, she is the superintendent, those mortuary reports are gonna have to end up on her desk at some point"
"All of those things you just pointed out are the reason I am going to be thinking of an excuse"
"Fair enough H"
"Look mate, do me a favour will you? Just so she stops breathing down my neck can you go and hurry up Z a bit, or at least get a time"
"Yeah sure mate"
"Cheers" As Liam walked out I turned back around to my computer pulling up crime reports when I heard behind me "Oh and for the record, that's exactly what she wants you to do, breathing down someone's neck can be quite sensual you know"
"Fuck off and do your job you dickhead" Apon hearing that he finally did fuck off.
That's the thing our commanding officer has always had a thing for me, always looking for a reason to have us do 'case catchup' late at night or for me to personally hand-deliver things to her office down the hall. I suppose I humour her in some regard, I never lead her on, I wouldn't do that to anyone, I just don't respond, let her have her attempt at a flirting session then return the conversation on course and wait till its all over. I'm not entirely sure she's aware I'm gay anyway, according to her she doesn't engage in 'idle office gossip' not sure its gossip if its come from my own mouth but then again it's easier to ignore something if you don't want to believe it.

Two hours. He has been two fucking hours getting that report, and I know for a fact Zayn wasn't halfway through the autopsy and Liam just stayed, he faints at the slightest sight of blood, pathetic really. He can survive shootings, stabbings, murders, but the second he sees an autopsy he throws up in the nearest bin.
"Oi Oi lads, I'm back" I look up and he's leaning against the door frame playing with a cd between his fingers, I swear if that isn't Zayn's analysis then I'm going to flip
"Would you care to tell me where you've been?"
"With Zayn"
"What exactly were you doing that caused you to be out of the office for two hours?"
