I couldn’t believe how fast everything happened and how close I came to losing her. As I lay in Rory’s hospital bed with her, I told her every bit of what happened while she was out… I left for work that morning with every intention of putting in a boring day behind the desk. I didn’t think anything of it when two delivery men approached the door holding a heavy box and asked me to hold the door for them. Little did I know who they really were. I got to work that morning and after I sat down with my coffee, Nick put a file on my desk. I had been waiting for this. I hadn’t told Rory the extent of it, but Nick and I had been working non-stop on Mason’s case for the past three weeks. The file Nick just gave me were the DNA results from the crime scene. The initial investigators did a shitty job of, well, investigating because there was a ton of tainted evidence that had to be thrown out. However, thankfully, the crime lab still had Mason’s suit jacket he was wearing the night he was murdered.
