"Torres have you found anything?"
"No i'm still looking in the drawer, how about you?"
"No i'm still looking through a bunch of boxes that..."
"What's wrong?"
"There's.. there's blood on the side of this one"
What?"
"Yeah hang on..It's filled with feathers"
"What, bring it out"
"Here look"
"Oh my God"
"I know they look exactly like Fosters"
"Lightman does know something about"
"Yeah i wonder what else is in here"
"Let's take a look"
They emptied the box onto the floor and began to search through the papers, They were all about old cases although there was one particular paper that caught Torres's eye, she picked it up to have a closer look
"Loker"
"What?"
"Read this"
"What is it?"
"Just read it"
Cal had driven home early and up to his bedroom, he went through their conversation in his head and he began to fit pieces together, he felt so stupid the whole time he thought Foster had feelings for him, it was all a lie
"Dad?"
"Hey Em"
"You okay?"
"If i'm honesty Em..no i'm not okay"
"What's wrong"
"It's...Foster"
"What happened?"
"She... i thought that we..she had ..some sort of ...feelings for me but she was leading me on"
"What?"
"She doesn't love me Em it was all a lie"
"No dad not all of it"
"Em..."
"Dad she does love you, i can see it when i see her look at you, she loves you dad she just won't admit to herself, she has forced herself to love James she doesn't really, THAT'S the lie"
"I'm not so sure Em"
"Trust me, everything is going to okay"
"You always know how to cheer your old dad up, i love you Em"
"Love you too"
Cal went into his office the next day, he arrived only to see Torres and Loker sitting there waiting for him
"I don't remember asking you two to be here"
"We wanted to talk to you about something"
"Oh really? What's that?"
"Just two things, these and this"
"What a bunch of feathers and bit of paper?"
"Why do you have feathers in a box in your closet?"
"Hold on you went through my stuff?"
"Your deflecting"
"No i'm not i'm just wondering what you thought gave you the right to go through my stuff?"
"We are tired of your secrets, yours and Foster's, you know all of ours why can't we know some of yours?"
"Torres is right, so what's with the feathers?"
"Sticking up for your girlfriend Loker? Wow that's very.. masculine of you"
"Just answer the question"
"Okay i found them in my office one day i guess a bird must have flown in so i picked them up and put them in the nearest thing i could find"
"Really? Then why do they look so similar to Foster's?"
"I don't know must have been from the same bird"
"Well we checked and we found out that her feather is not from a bird but from a human so tell us where they are really from"
"You went through Foster's stuff as well?"
"Tell us"
"No"
"Tell us or we'll show this to Emily"
"What that bit of paper? Is that meant to scare me?"
"Why don't you take a closer look at what it actually says"
Cal took the paper from Loker and gave it a quick read then he realized what he was actually holding
"You wouldn't"
"Tell us or we will"
"The feathers..."
Cal didn't have time to answer as Emily came in with one of her friends
"Em what's going on?"
"Dad, this Kelly she needs your help"
"Of coarse, what can help you with darling?"
"I've...I've..."
"It's alright take your time"
"I've seen a murder"
"Really? where did you see it sweetheart?"
"Up in the woods just behind the high school"
"Okay"
"Dad? Do you believe her?"
"Yes, Yes i do, you two go get Foster we've got ourselfs a case"
"So this young girl, Kelly, claims she's seen a murder of another young girl?"
"Yeah and i believe her"
"So that automatically means she's telling the truth?"
"Well.... yeah"
Foster gave a little chuckle before Torres and Loker walked in
"Hey you guys find anything?"
"Yeah we found the police report on the dead body. Her name was Caroline Mackenzie, she was eighteen years old she lived in town not far from here. She was a cheerleader, popular and she was just about to graduate and go on to study law at university"
"Like we need any more useless lawyers than the ones we've already got"
"Cal"
"Sorry, carry on Loker"
"Well our next step is going to be asking around the school to see what her school life was and then we were going to see her parents and see what her home life was like, something in either of these environments cause her death we just need to find out which one"
"Okay well you two can check the house and Foster and i will check the school"
"Okay"
Loker and Torres left the room leaving Cal and Foster alone
"You know that it had nothing to do with her home life don't you?"
"Yep"
"Then why send them there?"
"For fun"
"You are unbelievable"
"Thank you"
"That wasn't a compliment"
"Really? You just called me sexy"
"In your dreams Cal"
"I'm counting on that"
They both walked out the room laughing, James came round the corner and saw them together, he decided to give Gillian the benefit of the doubt
"James, hey"
"Hey Gill, Cal"
"Hi Jimmy boy"
"It's James"
"Whatever you say, Can you make this quick we're busy"
"Yeah sure give a few minutes"
"Okay i'll be waiting in the car, love"
"Okay, so what did you wanna talk about?"
"Just that i'm sorry for the way acted about you and Cal the other day"
"I know. I'm sorry too it was completely my fault i should have realized that i was hurting you again like i did before but you have nothing to worry about when it comes to him."
"Okay, right i'll see you later then?"
"Yeah"
Gillian got into Cal's car, While they driving towards the school she kept looking over at him, She kept thinking why she felt this way towards him, It was Cal but there was something else she was seeing, something he didn't want her to see
"No i'm still looking in the drawer, how about you?"
"No i'm still looking through a bunch of boxes that..."
"What's wrong?"
"There's.. there's blood on the side of this one"
