Remembering

When she and Derek had made plans to head into the police station first thing in the morning. Emily had not anticipated things going the way that they had at all. After all, people who had broken the law were taken to the police station. But instead, she and Derek had gone to the police station and broken the law. She was pretty sure that they were not supposed to have the pictures that Detective Pierce had given them. But Emily was glad that they did.

From the moment that they had stepped out of the police station and into the car, Emily had wanted to rip the envelope open and spill the contents. An urge that did not go away even in the car, or at her apartment. But she had managed to hold on until they had finally made it to the penthouse. And now they were back at the penthouse. 

They had moved furniture around in Derek's study. Creating a mini war room. Even having a giant board, leaned against the wall so that they could use it to connect events more easily.
