I felt very uncomfortable talking to Dexter. Number one I barely know him, but my main issue is the attraction I have for him. I constantly find myself flirting with him, unknowingly, or staring at him.

But I know he has a job to do, so I'm trying my best not to make it hard on him.

"Um, okay well who are the other suspects?"

"Well there's only one. But this story is going to take alot longer than the last one." I said.

"I have all night Sharen." Then he smiled.

"Well it started 5 years ago, with my boyfriend named Allen. Allen Mccarson...."
