CHAPTER TWENTY-ONE

Noam tossed the file he'd been looking through to the side, frustrated that he wasn't getting anywhere. He was starting to worry they would never find the young boy taken from the park after his soccer game. All the leads they had were going nowhere.

He glanced at the clock, wishing he was headed home. Kasey was supposed to meet him and spend the night, and after the day Noam had, he wanted nothing more than to curl up on the couch and forget everything but Kasey and the movie they were going to watch.

He smiled, thinking about Kasey. They'd been together almost a month officially, and things had never been better. They took turns spending the night at each other's homes when Kasey didn't have to work, and nights where he did have to work, they often managed to at least get dinner together. On his days off, they went out, usually doing nothing important, but the walks through the park, the hours at the gun range, and the simple trips to the grocery store together meant everything to him. It was great having someone to do things with.

As stressful as work was, having Kasey in his life helped take the pressure off. He found comfort and relief in his arms, the job not being so central in his life anymore. He had an escape, someone to lean on.

Forcing his mind back onto the case, he started reviewing the park surveillance video again, hoping for some clue, some little thing they'd missed before. Having no leads on the two girls, and now the young boy, didn't sit well with him. It was his job to figure out what happened, to find the kids.

His phone rang, pulling his attention from the video. He saw Kasey's name and grinned. "Hey."

"Hi, sorry to bother you at work." Kasey didn't sound like his usual happy self.

"You know you're no bother. What's up?" He eased back in his chair, glad for the short break.

"I have to skip out on tonight. I'll have time for dinner, but that's about it. I have a job late, then I'm headed out of town first thing in the morning for a few days. There's some job they need help with and the money is good, so I told them I could go. I shouldn't be gone more than three or four days."

Noam bit back the sigh that wanted to leave him. It was only a few days, but it sounded as if it was going to be forever. "You warned me this happens from time to time. I understand. I'll be here when you get back. Do you want to still do dinner tonight? I'd like to at least see you before you go."

"Yeah, I can drop by about six. Want me to bring something to eat?" Kasey asked.

"No, I'll cook. I'm off at four and I have some meat in the fridge I need to use. Where are they sending you?"

"It's a town just outside of Vegas," Kasey told him.
