Little Detective

Chapter 22: The Beginning of a Love Story

I brought some clothes for you to change into. JJ is bringing them in now.

I looked up from my phone over to Jones who was still worked away on his computer.

"Are you good for me to leave, Jones?" I asked.

"Go on your date, Kid. I'm good," Jones said in a monotone voice.

"Thanks, Jones," I said.

I gathered my things as I noticed JJ walk in holding a large, black giftbag. I walked over to him with a smile. He smiled back at me held the bag up to me and swung it back and forth. I shook my head at his antics.

"Hey Ana," JJ greeted me when I walked up to him.

"Hey, JJ. I didn't know he was bringing me clothes," I said and took the bag from his hand.

"I'm just glad he decided against the pink bag," JJ said with a chuckle. "Imagine me walking into a police station with a pink bag."

"I don't want to," I said. "I'm going to go change, you can go tell him I'll be right out."

"Sure thing," JJ said. He walked out the front of the station as I walked into the locker room.

I pulled out the army green knee-length dress with three-quarters sleeves and light wash denim jacket and set them aside. I then pulled out the wedged sandals and looked at them in distain. I thought I told Jihwan that I didn't like heels.

I quickly got dressed and put my work clothes into the gift bag. I put the bag into my locker for safe keeping. I grabbed my work bag and made my way outside.

It was easy to find which car was Jihwan's. The high-end black car with tinted windows sat at the curb stood out among every other car. I couldn't help but smile as I walked up to it. I opened the backseat door and stepped inside.

"Hello, beautiful," Jihwan said as I sat down. He wore a black leather jacket over a black shirt with thin horizontal stripes, black jeans, and black leather boots.

"Hello, Handsome," I said. I leaned over to him and pressed a kiss to his lips. He smiled as he did the same to lean over to kiss me.

"I like this greeting," Jihwan whispered against my lips. He pressed his lips against mine once more as I giggled.

"Yeah it's cute," JJ said from the front seat. "Just remember I'm here so don't go any further than a few kisses."

I watched as Jihwan's neck began turning red as my cheeks turned pink. I hid my face in Jihwan's shoulder as JJ began to drive to the lake side.

"You have a driver's license, right?" Jihwan asked me suddenly.

"Yeah, why?" I asked. I looked up at him in confusion. He knew everything about me. I mean, he did a background check on me right after we first met. So he should know this stuff.

"I'm going to buy you a car so that you can start driving us to our dates," Jihwan said.

"Don't buy me a car," I said. "I don't need it."

"But I need you to have a car," Jihwan whined. "That way JJ doesn't need to drive us places anymore and stuff like this doesn't happen anymore."

"Jihwan? Seriously, do not get me a car," I said. "I'm starting to save up my own money to buy me my own car."

"Let him buy you a car," JJ said from the front seat. "I'm tired of driving the two of you places."

"No one asked you, JJ," I snapped to him.

"This is why you need a car," Jihwan said. "So we don't have to deal with him."
