First Lead.

You spend weeks hunting and searching for a God to believe in. Sometimes we loose faith like we loose interest in the silly subject but today my friend, as I sat in that church, I found salvation! God is God. Though he mocks me he always shall love me. Always.. Maybe I'm just insane or maybe I'm right..

Bryce groanrd as he sat the book in his desk and wrote something down on paper, his blonde locks fell in front of his eyes. After searching the park for hours he found nothing and even kept in contact with Smitty who had the same luck as him. He looked around the room as people rushed and others walked.

The sound of typing and talking echoed.

He knew just as well as the detectives that if he really wants to find anything he'd have to search hard for it. For now it was just peeks here and there but it seemed as the days went on everyone was like a dog on the hunt for a bone. Lost yet faithful.

Bryce sighed deeply as he crossed his arms over his chest, giving a yawn shortly after. He had been in the chair for hours just watching the clock tick out the time. Once or twice he would get up and help out the assistants but otherwise he was stuck in the chair until time itself let him out of the hell.

Bryce had to admit he wasn't in any position to become a surgeon at this point and the more he didn't volenteer the more he was unlikely to get it. What mattered was his friend.

Bryce heard a light knock on his door an immediately knew who it was so without question he jumped up from his seat and smiled when the door opened to reveal Eva. "McQuaid you can leave." Her voice was sweet as she watched the blonde give her a nod. He got his things then begin to leave the office in a hurry.

Bryce needed to ask the last person Brain had talked to a question and the only person he could find that actually had a name was a woman named Stella. Stella just so happened to be a nurse and one of Eva's best friends. Her and Brain had a thing in high school until he admitted to being gay. Even then the woman crushed on him.

At first Bryce had thought she moved on for she was in love with a man but like Eva, her love was killed by the all too famous nurse. Since then Brian came back into her life but only used her for sex. Poor girl had no idea.

Bryce pulled up at the woman's house after asking Eva for her address and stepped out of his car. His blue eyes scanned over the large yard before he took a deep breath and stepped up. He lightly knocked on the door and a woman with brown eyes answered.

The woman was slightly tall, had long bleach blonde locks, fair skin, and straight teeth. She was dressed in a cotton blue dress with flats.

"Hey Stella," he greets as she smiled softly. "Bryce! What're you doing here?" Her innocence showed in her voice as she opened the door wider for the male. Bryce took her offer and stepped inside her home before sitting on the couch as she sat across from him. "I came to ask if you have talked to Brian here lately?"

That name made her frown. "No, not since a few weeks ago why?" Her fingers grasped the glass in front of her as she stood to her feet and made her way to the kitchen. Bryce stayed silent. Not sure how he'd let her know he knew about what was going on he took a deep breath and said, "Well I mean weren't y'all supposed to meet before he disappeared?"

The sound of glass shattering echoed followed by silence shortly after it. It was deadly. "Actually..um, he ditched me for Eva. We were supposed to meet at the bar but she was there so I left.." Her voice was calm but he knew better than to be fooled by the tone. Stella was a sweet girl who always bit her tongue.

"Oh, well that's all I wanted to know. I'll see you at work tomorrow." Bryce said awkwardly. "Yeah.." She whispered as she walked him to the door. They said their fair wells then left.

As Bryce road down the road his phone began to go off. His blue eyes scanned the screen before realizing who it was..it was Brock.

•Police Station..

Smitty watched as Ryan cursed and slung the folder forward with a large frown on his face. Honestly he didn't blame him. "Are you telling me if I don't find something this case will be taken off my hands?!" He nearly shouted at the Canadian before him who nodded in response. After all the hard work they had put in this case they were always coming up empty.

Ryan plopped back down and ran a hand through his hair as he felt his world come tumbling down on his shoulders. Extra weight he didn't need. "Fucking hell.." He whispered as he grabbed the cup of water on his desk. Smitty sighed deeply as he leaned on the door, "You can't solve em' all man." The male chuckled cold heartedly and looked up with a glare, "I'm catching this one. If it's the last thing I do."

Just as he said that the phone rang off the hook and Smitty was first to answer, pressing it to his ear. "Smitty here." Ryan eyed the male as he the sound of a voice echoed on the other side of the phone. The Canadians eyes widen as he looked to his boss, "Alright we'll be there."

"What?"

"You won't believe me if I told you but..we got a lead."
