Dangerous Dreams

Leon dreamed, he was in the arm of a man who seemed familiar, turning his head to look at the face he saw D’s father. Wrenching away he turned to run and heard the laugher of the man. “You will want me to kill you before I am done with you pathetic human.” Leon screamed and woke.

The woman made her way to the robed man. “You will perform my request Madam Li?”
She nodded and make to speak of payment, he hushed her with a wave. “You will receive the money when you return. If you return.”
“Understood.” She said simply and left. D's father nodded, she would be a another pawn to be given in the game ahead.

The morning was bright, Leon watched as the sun reached the tops of the buildings, he hadn’t slept since the latest dream. “Good morning Leon, I have a guest, this is a nurse from the hospital she has your injections.” He hadn’t heard D come in but smiled at his Chinese lover calling the nurse a guest. Something about the nurse made him uneasy, it set his cop sense off, he inched his hand slowly to the gun under the pillow. The woman reached into the small bag she was carrying a brought a injection out. “Would you be kind enough to give me your arm, Mr Orcot?” Leon slipped his left arm from under the blanket but as he did so he noticed something odd about the woman’s face. “You have something on your face, here let me.” Catching the loose piece of latex he ripped it away.
“Well, it seems you are brighter than my client made out but you shall die anyway!” She lunged and Leon fired from under the blanket. “Leon!” D looked shocked. “You have ruined the bed linen!” One look at D’s face put Leon into fits of laugher.

Leon certainly wasn’t laughing three hours later when the forensics team were going through everything thing with a fine toothcomb. Jill had settled herself down on a couch in the shop and was chatting to D when she wasn’t looking at Leon with a worried expression.. “Well Jill, I shall go make tea for us, do you think the other officers will require a drink?”
“I think they’ll be okay D love.” Leon rolled his eyes at Jill who giggled. “A homicide and he treats it like a tea party.”
“Well unlike you, Count D is a gentleman, what do you see him?” She grinned at D.
“Well Miss Jill, he does have some hidden depths.” Leon smiled at him and was surprised to be pulled gently into a kiss, he reacted to the chineseman's touch without thinking pulling him closer with his uninjured arm.. Jill clapped. “Nice show boys.” D blushed softly.
“I shall get the tea now I think.” Jill grinned at Leon it was unusual to see the calm of the Count flustered. Leon dropped beside her. “Jill, if you find anything about that bitch can you pass it on to me?”
“Yeah, of course I’ll have to tell people at the office.”
“I know just don’t make a song and dance about it, I’ll handle it in my own way.”
“What the hell is going on Leon? You look like shit.”
“Put it this way Jill, the in-laws in this family are shit. D is coming back, drop the subject.” Jill did as she was asked but didn’t like it one bit.
