The undercover assignment had been murder on Piers' soul, conscience or whatever was pricking in his body. It was an ache that was hard to pin point and he had been self medicating with scotch and snuggles from Moby; who seemed very happy to have him back home. It had been hard sending him to the kennel and after the first month the kennel owner had taken pity on the white beast and had just brought him home with her which helped reduce the amount of stress and guilt that Piers had been feeling.
Dallas had been feeling like home to him but now he wondered if he would be able to see anything more than the seedy underbelly he had been immersed in for so long. What they both needed was to get away for a while and a road trip actually sounded like a good idea. Maybe he'd even rent an RV and just hit the open road. He had months of leave available and being a cop wasn't high on his list right now.
Pulling out his phone he made a couple of calls to arrange a leave of absence, his captain even thought it was a good idea for him to get away for a while. Knowing that his job was safe for awhile, Piers sighed as he pulled himself to his feet. There were other arrangements needed to be made like renting his house and getting an RV that would tow his bike. Just knowing there was an end in site made Piers feel a little lighter.
