It made sense Jackie thought. That they hooked up and all, they were old friends so it made sense.

She wouldn't be the one to text first, because it made sense. If it didn't make sense they should talk about it. 

She reassured herself, but this made sense. They were just...

All the way in the center of the US the real  Blue Man had gone north to  Michigan . Who would look for him there he thought, he could just disappear. He read in a rest stop pamphlet, that the upper peninsula was a great escape. Thats what he wanted,...

"Derek, you like tired." His sergeant said.

"Is it that damn case? Your not a cadet now, you can't just pull all nighters and expect to be sharp the next day."

"I think I found something." 

"With the case? What do you mean?"

"Like I think I figured it out, how they hid,...

Joey was tired. All night shift, and in 5 hours he had to be to his sisters birthday. 

He showered first, that was his ritual, right after work, as soon as he got home. 

He imagined  coffee grounds falling off of him, he felt relaxed after. 

He had blackout curtains...

"Haha yeah, I mean sure, kept me occupied for the night."

"I am just worried it will get worse."

"Hmmm, yeah." The doctor...

"What can I get you?"

"Just a coffee, thanks."

Derek handed the guy a five dollar bill. 

"Oh wow, thank you, thank you kindly. Lids and stuff are over there."

Big Joe Jostled James awake. 

"I think I found an out, another job, a big one."

James was half awake, it was still dark outside but the blue light was bright, and he could now make out the face of Big Joe. His skin was like the surface of the moon,...

His skin was bristly like a toothbrush. It was worse going up, this made him feel dirty. He thought about leaving before the coffee came. He thought about the  Blue Man but he couldn't remember his name. 

He searched it online, but it came up with only the Blue Man...
