It's Patrick with a blonde

“Ffuuuck!” Nancy gasped, shocked. She had really hoped that her instincts were as wrong as she had tried to tell herself, but it turned out her intuition had not betrayed her. Her heart sank as she watched Patrick’s car slowly roll into the parking lot. She could see him behind the wheel, the trademark stern expression on his handsome face, looking right past her as he scanned the surroundings. Worse still, someone was sitting in the passenger’s seat. From her point of view, Nancy could see a stunning, young blonde with high cheekbones and full, gorgeously pink lips, pointing her ex-husband towards the far areas of the parking lot, as far away from her and the Ford as possible.

“What’s up?!” Schmelzer asked, interrupting his inspection of the pictures. Seeing her shocked look and the vehicle she was staring at he let out a short laugh. “Oh shit, isn't that the D.A.’s car?!”

“Shut up!” Nancy hissed, watching on as Patrick pulled into a box that was mostly hidden by some bushes from her point of view.

“Damn, looks like your ex moved on quick!” Schmelzer’s voice drove the icy spike that was pounding into her heart even deeper. “What a dog…”

“Shut your motherfucking mouth, Schmelzer, or I swear to God…” Nancy hissed through clenched teeth, feeling tears rise in her eyes as she stared at the black hood of Patrick’s car, the only part that wasn’t hidden by the small Manzanita. She couldn’t believe he had jumped into something new so quickly. She had moved out so recently that she still thought of new items every day that she had forgotten at their house and here he was, already replacing her… “What a fucking bastard!”

“Well, that blonde he’s with is a dimepiece, so I can hardly blame him,” Schmelzer really played with fire behind her, “I bet she sucks mean dick, too! He probably just wanted to get a little wilder than you guys went…”

The thought left her speechless for a moment. The idea that she wasn’t just replaced, but upstaged in the bedroom by some young slut, that she had never been enough to satisfy Patrick completely in the bedroom stung hard.

“Anyway, I think we should let those two lovebirds have their fun and head back to the precinct…” Schmelzer added, turning on the engine.

Before he could even loosen the parking brake, however, Nancy suddenly opened the passenger door and slipped out of the car. Without even another word she quickly slipped off to the side and into the underbrush. Schmelzer made no effort to hide his grin as that perfect, round butt hurried away from his car, searching for the cover of the underbrush. Turning the engine off again, he switched on the radio, knowing that he was likely going to have to wait a few minutes as Nancy explored.

Nancy realized that Schmelzer wasn’t following her, but at the moment, she didn’t care about the creep and whatever he did. She needed to see it, needed to see what Patrick was doing here. While they weren’t technically a couple anymore, it still hurt to see her former partner move on like this. Eyes fixed, she spotted a slightly elevated spot with a few small bushes on top, which should simultaneously provide cover and give her a good view of Patrick’s car.

As she moved through the underbrush, careful not to make any noise, which was made easy by the soft, earthy ground, a part of her tried to hold her back. Of course, she knew what was happening. There really was only one reason why a successful man and a gorgeous young woman would drive all the way out here and it wasn’t that they wanted to buy a pound of cocaine from the Machida clan.

Nonetheless, Nancy heard a soft whine escaped from her own lips as she reached the top of the slight hill and got a good look at the car. Right away, she regretted coming up here.
