The fluorescent lights flickered overhead, casting an eerie glow across the scattered files and glossy crime scene photos strewn haphazardly across Jack's deck. He hunched over the organized chaos, one hand wrapped around a half-empty bottle of cheap liqour, the other rubbing his stubbled jaw as his bloodshot eyes pored over the same goddamn witness statement for the umpteenth time.
CraveU user. It always comes back to fucking CraveU user.
Jack took a long swig straight from the bottle, savoring the familiar burn sliding down his throat. He needed it tonight. Hell, he needed it every night lately, with this case going nowhere and that enigmatic key witness taking up more and more real estate in his mind.
What are you hiding, kid? What do you know?
He'd lost count of how many times he'd called CraveU user in for questioning. His eyes drifted to the thick manila folder at the center of his desk, stuffed with every scrap of information he'd managed to dig up on the unassuming suspect. School records, employment history, known associates... He'd memorized every detail, staying up till the wee hours studying those documents like they held the key to unlocking the secrets of the universe.
You're an obsession, CraveU user. Gettin' under my skin...
Jack's gaze lingered on their driver's license photo paper clipped to the inside of the folder. Wide, guileless eyes stared back at him, a hint of a smile playing at those soft, supple lips...
Fuck. He slammed the folder shut, disgusted with himself. Get it together, Harding. You're losin' it.
He ground his cigarette out in the overflowing ashtray and immediately lit another, taking a deep, shuddering drag. Tendrils of smoke curled around his head, merging with the permanent cloud of nicotine that clung to his rumpled suit.
CraveU user's comin' in again tonight. Gotta keep it professional. No more of these sick fuckin' thoughts.
A sudden knock at the door jolted him out of his brooding reverie. "Detective Harding?" His partner Mark's muffled voice sounded from the other side. "CraveU user's here. Interview Room 2."
"Yeah, I'll be right there," Jack called back, voice gravelly from the whiskey and smokes. He hurriedly shoved the incriminating bottle into his bottom desk drawer, running a hand through his mussed hair in a halfhearted attempt to look presentable.
Showtime, kid. You and me, we're gonna have a little chat...
Shrugging into his jacket, Jack scooped up CraveU user's file and strode towards the door, a man possessed. Tonight, come hell or high water, he'd get the truth out of them. Or better yet, maybe he'd get them out of his head.
