Triple Threat: Here's JD!
Okay… here’s the next snippet in my AU Magnificent Seven series… The rest of the universe is here.
I’ve titled the series now. It’s “Triple Threat”. Why? You’ll have to wait until the first ‘long’ story to find out.
“Agent Larabee?”
Chris and Buck paused before the front stairs of the federal courthouse and turned towards the young man who had called Chris’s name.
“Yes?” Chris replied.
“Oh, good!” the young man exclaimed excitedly. “I’m John Dunn. But, everyone calls me JD. Judge Sanchez told me to introduce myself.”
Chris looked confused. “Why?”
“Wait a minute!” Buck exclaimed. “Aren’t you that paralegal Josiah told us about? The one working his way through law school?”
“Yes, sir,” JD said with a grin.
Buck snorted. “Don’t ‘sir’ me! I’m Buck, this is Chris. Come join us for lunch?”
“Sure!” JD replied happily.
“Buck, our search warrant?” Chris hissed at his partner.
“Oh.” JD seemed to deflate. “I guess it’ll have to be another time, then.”
“You and I both know it’ll be a good forty-five minutes for the paperwork to finish processing, since this isn’t an emergency, Chris,” Buck pointed out. “The three of us are going to lunch.”
“Fine,” Chris replied, rolling his eyes as he headed down the steps of the federal courthouse.
Buck threw his arm over JD’s shoulders to lead him away. “So, tell us about yourself.”
“Well, when I’m not working, or studying, I love to surf…” JD began.
=====
So… Five down, a few more to go. Well, technically, four down, since I haven’t really explained Ezra’s ‘job’ in this universe… but can you guess? :-)
Comments would be adored and treasured!
