Sara woke to the sound of her alarm. Rolling over she hit the 'off' button, silencing the annoying shrill.
Groaning Sara threw back her duvet and begrudgingly got out of the comfort of her bed.
7:30pm – An hour and a half until night shift began. 'Maybe tonight would be a slow night.' Thought Sara. Her and the guys seemed to be doing nothing but pulling double and triple shift these past few weeks. It was starting to catch up on the brunette.
Stumbling through her room Sara reached the en suit and turned the shower on. Stepping out of her clothes and into the warmth of the shower, Sara began to relax.
Once out of the shower and wrapped in a towel Sara heard her cell ringing. Groaning she ran into her room and grabbed her cell off the nightstand.
D.B Russell – Incoming Call'This could only mean one thing.' Thought Sara. She was being called into work early.
"Do you want me to meet you at the lab or will I just meet you at the scene and save time?" Asked Sara answering the phone.
She heard Russell laugh before he replied. "How do you know I'm not calling you to tell you, you have the night off?"
"Because that would mean I would still be dreaming." She said with a laugh.
"Ever the pessimistic Sara. But yes I need you at a scene," He said getting down to business now. The easygoing nature of their conversation now gone. "I'm afraid its bug infested so spare clothes may come in handy as well as some lemons. I've called Nick and Greg so you guys could carpool together. I'll text you on the address and I've just emailed you the case. Get in touch with Nick and I will talk to you later. And Sara," Russell said before he finished, "You're lead tonight. I know I can trust you."
"Of course you can trust me Russell," Sara replied a little confused, "You can count on me." And with that Sara was running around getting ready and ringing Nick.
'Yeah, so much for a slow night.' Thought Sara.
He knew what he had done was sneaky and Sara may never talk to him again, but the man had asked for the three of them. Who was he to deny him?
'She'll get over it' thought Russell as he looked through the case file. 'She has Nick and Greg there for back up.'
'Sara is a professional; she's not going to let her personal life cloud her judgement. She's better than that. And she has Nick and Greg.'
Even though Russell kept repeating this mantra in his head he knew he was a dead man when they arrived back.
