When Allie heard the doorbell, she couldn’t help but wonder who on earth would be at her door in the middle of a thunderstorm. Opening the door, she froze in shock at the sight of a soaked Seth on her doorstep. “Seth? Are you okay?” Stepping aside, the ginger gestures for Seth to come in. “What happened?”

If Emmett had his choice, all work would end at 5:00 sharp.  That’d leave plenty of time for grabbing some beers, picking up girls, hanging out with the guys--whatever entertainment was on tap for the night.  But he’d never worked a job with set hours.  Ranch work was at the mercy of the weather and livestock; the Army meant striking when they had the opportunity and fighting back if the enemy struck first; construction was subject to project deadlines and making up for unexpected delays...and gang business wasn’t exactly 9-to-5 either.  But at least work meant distraction, something other than being alone with his thoughts.

And so he didn’t mind having Seth come along on this job, because he couldn’t think about anything else while he was focused on making sure he didn’t mess anything up for them.  The kid tried, he was just...a kid.  Like the FNGs they’d kept throwing into Emmett’s squad.  Given enough time and experience, they’d usually figure things out--but until then, they were liabilities to everyone around them.

Pulling up to the curb, Emmett texted Seth to let him know he was there, careful not to let Janey follow as she barked at whoever dared to come close to her truck.  “Behave yourself, ya hear?” he told her.

           “well,  this  is  where  i  live!”  arms  stretched,  once  the  bags  were  dropped  to  the  floor,  showcasing  the  modest  space  he  called  home.  it  was  a  relief  to  leave  florida  behind,  even  if  it  was  only  temporary.  with  it’s  sweat  clinging  heat,  muggy  air,  and  sunbathing  gators  that  greeted  him  each  morning,  mouth  agape,  on  robyn’s  front  lawn. “it’s  been  awhile  so  we  may  need  to  make  a  quick  grocery  trip  or  we  can  splurge  and  eat  out  every  morning,  noon,  and  night.”  @blumeisms​

      “so,  this  is  why  you  called  me  over  here,  huh?”  print  outs,  loose  leafs,  dates  diligently  scribbled  on  sticky  notes  shuffle  between  his  hands  as  he  skims  over  the  contents  ;  turning  them  over,  briefly  thumbing  through  copies  of  what  looked  to  be  awfully  vague  adoption  papers  from  the  local  municipality.  cristian’s  practically  vibrating  with  curiosity  at  the  prospect  of  delving  into  a  mystery  and  losing  himself  in  yet  another  case.  it’s  not  his  usual  beat,  but  he’s  grown  close  enough  to  robyn  to  know  she  wouldn’t  hand  these  personal  records  over  to  just  anybody.  a  coy  look  dons  his  features  as  he  sets  the  paperwork  down  on  his  lap,  an  arm  propping  itself  on  the  back  of  her  couch  as  he  holds  her  gaze.  “the  nice  dinner,  the  drinks,  the  dessert…  was  all  to  butter  me  up  and  get  me  to  work?  you  know,  i’m  not  really  a  private  investigator,  but  i  think  i  may  still  have  a  few  connections  from  my  time  back  at  the  paper  if  you  wanna  tell  me  what  this  is  about.” @blumeisms​
