    Breathe– Chapter 5

    Well, James started, and by the tone of his voice Bette new she was in for a bit of teasing. Its amazing how much I can get done when I dont have a detective that knows little about gathering scientific data breathing down my neck. Bette could hear the smile in his voice.

    Ouch..thats not fair, Bette responded. I always know exactly what I want, I am just a little fuzzy on the how and how long of my requests.

    Seriously Bette, James tone changed a bit. We were all a little stunned when Jules said you left with a witness and didnt know if youd be back. In all the years weve worked together, I cant remember ever processing a crime scene without you, James paused hoping that Bette would now fill in the blanks.

    Since she didnt even know the answer herself, she simply offered You saw the crime scene, James. It was horrific, a nightmare. I just had to get the roommate out of there. She didnt seem to be willing to go without me, so I finally convinced her to go with me, Bette finished hoping that this explanation would satisfy James and all that would attempt to solicit information from him rather than coming to Bette with their questions.

    How is she? James asked indicating that he understood.

    Asleep, Bette answered So, what do you have for me? she asked relieved that they could move on.

    James knew the previous topic was now closed so he pressed forward, knowing the amount of information he had been able to gather so quickly would please the Detective.

    Where do you want me to start, he asked. Time of death, fibers or blood splatter?

    Bette leaned forward, now fully engaged in the conversation. You have blood splatter already? she asked impressed with James record speed. Computer model or silly string? Bette asked knowing this question would propel James down a the path of computer analysis versus the power of the human mind.

    Blood splatter analysis was one of the true arts of forensic science. Based on the depth and width of a single splatter of blood, a gifted technician could determine the height and position of the suspect, the force of a blow, and in the case of a blood-splattered crime scene like this one, almost create a narrative of the series of events.

    1. Great story, Sox. Re: formatting. The page generator is expecting html formatting to be embedded in your text. Manually adding a

      or two at the beginning of each paragraph may be enough to make it readable for now.

    2. Sorry Sox, forgot that I couldn’t use the actual html code within a comments box – it gets blanked out. So I’ll describe the key-symbols in longhand.

      Basically you’ll be manually adding a

      ‘sharp parentheses left’ p ‘sharp parentheses right’

      at the beginning of each paragraph.

    3. DAMN WONDERFUL STORY AND CHAPTER….WHO CARES ABOUT THE FORMATTING, ALL I KNOW IS YOU MUST CONTINUE..PLEASE..I AM SITTING AT THE EDGE OF MY SEAT WAITING FOR YOUR NEXT AWESOME CHAPTER…PLEASE POST REAL SOON….THANKS

    4. I don’t know why but your story makes me think about a great book (I don’t remember the title) and a movie with Denzel Washington, who was quadriplegic and Angelina Jolie. I think it’s the feeling of your story when I read it. It’s gripping. Thank you

    5. I have to admit that I don’t watch any of the ‘crime’ shows on TV. They are too dark and depressing for me…all that violence and hatred in the world. But, I am totally and completely hooked on this story…and it is because of your writing. Thank you.

    6. OMG! What are you a Crime Scene Investigator? Your details are great, I really feel like I’m in this situation with them. I can’t wait to find out what happens next. PLEASE post again soon!

    9. I read and don’t normally comment……..but you write so well, so clearly and have such a sense of timing when you write…..it makes me want more. Don’t worry at all about the formatting, just write.

    10. Sox,
      Brilliant blending of The L Word and murder mystery.
      Am wondering if it will be a whodunnit rather than an interesting plot device to put a new slant on a familiar relationship.
      Anyhoo, that said, am just loving it.
      You have a real flair for this type of story. The scenes have been slowly and seductively set-up, crisp fresh dialogue that fairly bumps along mixed in with some genuine intrigue.
      Please continue this fabulous fan fic and bollocks to the formatting.
      I have need to read.
      Thanks for sharing your talent.
      A Loyal Fan.
