Chereads / Love & Law / Chapter 5 - Monday

Chapter 5 - Monday

The day for work had finally come and after taking a short break from working on the lab to get a quick shower and a real meal I returned at about midnight on Sunday and finished hanging the cabinets above what will become some of the work space while prepping the draws be installed below them. First I'd have to take up this carpet because it will be difficult to keep clean and only increases the risk of contaminating evidence.

Thus as I start to tare up the carpet in a pear of blue jeans and a tank top I could feel my ball rubbing against the denim since I've still never really got used to wearing underwear and thus never wear any when I can get away with it. I really start to sweat as I've managed to pull back at least half of the ugly green carpet revealing the cement floor. I then cleaned and mopped it and only finished that as I heard a commotion coming from the hallway and I looked up to see all my techs coming in to which I glance at my watch before addressing them.

"Last I checked the work day starts at nine am not one pm." I say looking at all of them standing in the doorway.

"Sir. We all have classes and don't get..." started Ruby as she pushed her way into the lab only to freeze looking at me and almost started drool and I think she might even wet herself but not from piss. "We're only interns."

"Wait so none of you have a degree in your field of study?" I asked looking at each of them even more frustrated at the captain then before.

"Sir we're not even paid unless you're saying that's about to change?" asked a male tan anthro mouse with green eyes and a black tail.

"Sorry not that I've heard. Its just I was promised a team of experts and all I got was interns but hay we can work with that." I replied with a smile before adding, "For now I'll make you all a deal for every case we solve correctly and is officially closed by my standards the whole team gets a bonus from me."

"So what would you like us to start on?" asked a timid grey anthro stallion with yellow eyes. "If you want we can finish clearing out your office."

"No need, I've put many of the boxes back. First I want to get the rest of this carpet up and the floor cleared. From there I'll instal some draws along the left wall and then we'll select our first case." I explain looking around at everyone before adding, "Also before I forget as of this moment the in house lounge is off limits for any member of this team and I don't want any arguing about it."

"But..." started the mouse only to freeze from the glare I shot him which was honestly more of a I'm tired and don't wish to argue then a don't question my orders look.

The mouse and stallion then went to work on pulling the rest of the carpet while Ruby made sure the equipment, that she could lift anyways, was properly moved to the clean side of the room. At one point while I was installing the drawers she even walked over to me and I could smell her vaginal juices she was defiantly wet alright.

"Sir I got you this." nervously sighed Ruby as she held out a simple black handled paw nutcracker. I smiled to which she added, "It's just a gift welcoming you to the team that's all nothing more."

"It fine Ms. O'Hare." I replied taking the nutcracker before adding, "You must have heard how much we squirrels love our nuts."

To that she blushed before waddling off back to her temporary station. As for the guys they managed to move all of the desks, except mine, to the center of the room and placed what little equipment we had on them. Then just as I finished installing the last of the drawers they had the carpet rolled up and ready to haul out. I stand to stretch before addressing everyone.

"Good job everyone. Mr. Johnson and Mr. Smith take that carpet to the dumpster and then take a short break. Ms. O'Hare you and Ms. Brown take a short break and then can you pick up a pizza and some soda pop? It's on me." I instruct as I dust off my paws and head for my desk only to stop short and pull a stack of files out of a nearby box. Now Ms. Brown was a shy black striped grey female anthro cat with green eyes.

"Ha, you girls get the maid work." teased the mouse.

"Mr. Johnson unless you want to be putting in extra overtime tonight I'd watch it. The only reason they're getting the food is their paws are cleaner but also because I'm not going to make them haul that carpet out of here." I corrected the mouse as I sat down behind my desk and opened the first file.

It was a file on small breaking and enterings with at least three potential suspects and two witnesses to the last one. It would be an easy first case so I set it aside. The next file was a case about a cub molester. This frustrated me that this scum was still on the street. This was going to be a personal file so it went into the top draw of my desk. Next was a murder case, doesn't look like a lot of evidence was collected nor and suspects found. This would be a challenge but I'd leave it to the team so it got placed in the pile with the others.

Lastly was a file containing a case of multiple bank robberies. Interesting there seemed to be hints towards it being an inside job, yet something was still off about it. It was almost as if those involved just disappeared. This one would also go into my desk draw because it needed a special touch.

Almost as if planned this way as I shut the draw to my desk the girls arrived with the food while the guys trailed behind. I nodded and motioned to my desk and the girls placed the pizza down before grabbing some clean beakers for us to use as cups. We then ate and drank and relaxed a bit before I showed them the two cases and let them choose. Now everyone except Ruby wanted the easier of the two cases thus it was the breaking and entering case.

"Okay now that you've selected our first case let's get to work. Mr. Johnson I hear you're my fingerprints guy so I want you to review all the collected prints. Ms. Brown I hear your my behavioral analyzer I want you to study the suspects' profiles and see if you can find better motives then these." I order as I look around at the team. "Mr. Smith I hear you're the tech expert of the team so start analyzing the security systems of the houses."

"What about me sir?" asked Ruby as the others found a work station and started to get about their tasks.

"Well we don't have any need for a DNA expert on this case seeing as the suspects have already been matched all the samples taken for the case." I replied thinking, "I guess if you want something to do I need all of the current DNA files we have recorded into our local system. So if you wish to work on that then you're welcome to otherwise see what you can help the others with."

"What about you sir." asked Ruby with a smile.

"Well I'll be checking ballistics on another case unless I'm needed to oversee any tests." I reply as I pull one of the files from my desk and open it up to review it more.

Meanwhile on the other side of the city Damien has just gotten out of his last class and was sitting in the campus library reading one of his text books as well as reading up on the laws concerning cub molestation and the statue of limitations on it. Now as he did so a few guys from the university football team approached him and the leader of the group, a male anthro black panther who was also the team captain.

"What's a fine wolfett like yourself doing in this musty old library when you could be with me in my bed having the time of your life?" asked the black panther as he rubbed his paw across Damien's cheek which caused him to shutter in fear at both being surrounded by strong aggressive guys as well as at being touched. Damien was trying to hide his fear and that he was scared but luckily for him a certain female anthro panda in a campus security uniform happened to notice his distress and approached the boys with her security baton in paw.

"Boys I think you best be moving along and leave Dani alone or I'll make your football careers end before they ever got a chance to start." called the panda tapping the baton on her open paw ever so gently while standing behind Damien. "Or would you rather I go with ending your chances to have any mini yous running around someday?"

With that all three guy covered their ground with their paws and slowly backed away out of the library. Jill then placed one paw on Damien's shoulder while sheathing her baton.

"Damien it may be best for you to study in the dorm room." sighed Jill as she sat down next to him.

"It's hard to concentrate with Mia and Mya always playing around and fucking each other all of the time." sighed Damien.

"How about this you come with me and I'll have a talk with them about it okay." replied Jill. It was nice having her look after him. Damien was reminded of his mother who luckily got him away from his father even though he still has the mental scares from it but he could never tell anyone about what his father had done to him.

Later back at the dorm Ruby had returned and was talking to Mya about the gift she'd gotten Marcus when Damien and Jill walked in.

"So I went with what Damien suggested and got him something he could use but I'm not sure if it was still the right thing." sighed Ruby as she set her bag down and flopped on the couch.

"What did you get him?" asked Mya after pushing Mia off her for a minute.

"A nutcracker" sighed Ruby still looking at the ceiling.

"Oooh. Yah that was a bad choice." replied Mya with a frown before looking at Damien and adding, "You have to help me with this one Damien. She got the squirrel crush of hers a nutcracker as a gift."

"Well that can go multiple ways for you Ruby dear." Damien sighed as he sat beside Ruby not really sure why he even was getting involved. "First is what Mya is most likely referring to and that is that he might think you're racist since he's a squirrel and you got him a nutcracker. It could also be taken since you're a girl and he's a guy that you want to crush his nuts either in a pleasurable or painful way. Then he could also take it the same way I might have and that is that you think he's gay and likes to put other guy's nuts in his mouth."

"Oh god I hope he doesn't think that I think he's gay." replied Ruby sitting up right and placing her paws over her eyes before it clicked and she then put her paws on Damiens and looked him in the eyes and added, "Not that there is anything wrong with being gay. It's just I really like him and hope he doesn't think that I think he's gay."

"Well in truth Ruby dear all of those possibilities don't end good for you because even in the him getting the though you want to squeeze his balls in a pleasureful way might get your internship canceled." replied Jill sitting down next to Mya, "It all depends on what kind of boss he is and how hard he'd enforce no workplace flirting."

"Did he say anything or make any comment when you gave it to him?" asked Damien trying to be encouraging even though he still didn't want to be out here.

"He said thank you and something about how I must've heard how much we squirrels love there nuts." sighed Ruby on the brink of crying.

Just then Damien took her paw before asking, "Can you all give us some privacy please?"

"Yes." replied Mya as her and Jill dragged Mia away into her and Mya's room. Jill then went to her room while Mya locked herself and Mia in their room.

"Ruby, I don't think he was offended by your gift and though his comment could be taken as him being gay the fact is you told me that he told you that you could call him Red and that he's shown some interest in you. I think we should take this one day at a time and maybe let me help pick out the next gift." encouraged Damien with a smile as he held her paw.

"Thanks Damien your a great friend even though you don't think you are." replied Ruby before smiling and adding, "Hay what if you meet him? Then you'd really be able to help me pick out something for him as well as confirm if he's gay or not."

"And how would I do that?" asked Damien with a raised eyebrow. He'd already promised more then he'd wanted to and now he could see himself doing far more then he felt comfortable with.

"Come with me to the police station as a girl and try flirting with him." replied Ruby with a smile, "I know its not your strong point but would you do it for me please."

"I can't and its not because I don't want to its just that I can't." sighed Damien looking down at his feet and pulling his paw away.

"You know you can tell me anything. I only want to help you." replied Ruby placing her paw on Damien's thigh and for some reason he felt he could tell her.

"If I tell you why you can't ever tell anyone. Understood?" asked Damien turning to face her.

"I promise." replied Ruby, "Short of you murdering someone because by law I have to tell someone."

"That's not it." sighed Damien. "No I can't because the police station is going to be full of big strong and powerful men, and so will your squirrely crush."

"Well it would be a pretty bad police force if it wasn't but why can't you go there? I still don't understand." confusingly replied Ruby.

"Because my father was big, powerful and strong and he...he...beat me. He' get drunk and beat me all over. It only got worse when I told him and my mother I was gay. Then he started to beat my ass with a rubber dildo or smack me across the face with it. Some times he'd squeeze my balls or grab my sheath." explained Damien, "So now you see why I can't go near men like that."

"I do and I'm glade you told me but Marcus isn't like that. Yes his muscles ripple under his fur and his fur just shines when he sweats and those jeans he was wearing with that tank top could drive you wild but trust me when I say he wouldn't hurt a fly. Well unless that fly was robbing a bank or trying to murder someone." replied Ruby only to start rambling until Damien placed a paw on her muzzle to shut her up.

"I'll need some time." replied Damien, "But I'll try to do it for you okay."

"Thanks Damien and you take all the time you need dear don't let me force you into something uncomfortable for you." replied Ruby before giving Damien a simple hug.
