“Prints?”
“Nada.”
“Stains?”
“Meat sauce.”
“Witnesses?”
“None.”
“What’s left….” Stella groaned. “Anything?”
“Nope.” Danny stated. “How bout lunch? Letting the case percolate a bit?”
“Can a case percolate? You want to go out or order in?”
“If you get the food, I’ll provide the gossip.”
“From Vegas?”
“Yep.”
“I’m on it. Break room in thirty minutes.” Stella marched out and Danny pulled out his cell phone. He dialled a number and waited.
“Flack.”
“You’re on vacation, you don’t need to answer your phone like that.”
“I answered with my name, most people do.”
“You could use your temporary title.”
“My title?”
“Yeah, something like: This is Don, Boy Toy First class.” Danny let his voice go down to low murmur, doing a very poor imitation of a sexline worker. “Tell me how I can please you and I’ll tell you what I’m wearing….”
“If that’s how you advertised yourself, it’s no wonder you ended up with Lindsay.”
“Hey!”
“You asked for it. And why are you calling? I’ve only been gone for three days.”
“I can’t call my buddy to see how he’s doing?”
“Are you on a break?”
“Yeah.”
“Waiting for lunch?”
“Yeah.”
“And you’re bringing the gossip?”
“Yeah…..”
“Tell Stella I said Hi.”
“You know me too well….”
“Yep. So how’s everything?”
“Weird. Did you know they have something called baby jogalates?”
“Is it infectious?”
“No, apparently parents take their babies there and use the kid as a weight for the exercise moves.”
“Why don’t they just use real weights?”
“Because it helps to bond with the baby.”
“I thought you said the same thing about breastfeeding.”
“I did. And I haven’t been anywhere near the twins ever since the kid was born. She read some new study.”
“I’m not sure if I wanna hear….”
“They said women shouldn’t have sex during the time they breastfeed, because the body is working overtime to produce sufficient amount of milk and it can`t afford to waste energy.”
“That settled it, I don’t wanna know.”
“Okay, now it’s your turn.”
“My turn?”
“I shared something intimate with my buddy, now you tell me some good details so I can pay back for the lunch.”
“Can you handle it?”
“We got a case with a midget stripper, a dead pimp, and a guy who picks up horse manure from the streets. I can handle it.”
“I didn’t mean that.” Don chuckled. “I meant that you’ve been going g through a drought so I don’t think you wanna hear about people who can hardly get out of bed.”
“Just gimme something for Stella.”
“Okay, what kinda stuff do you need?”
“Well…. Have you lost money in the casinos?”
“No.”
“Had a cheerful threesome with a showgirl?”
“No.”
“Tell, you’ve actually seen a show.”
“No.”
"Come on, work with me here. Bette Middler?"
"No."
"Cher?"
"Hell no."
“So I got nothing to tell! I need something!”
“That’s your problem, not mine.”
“And you don’t desert your buddy in his time of desperation!”
“Fine. If I tell you something juicy, will you hung up?”
“Yeah.”
“Okay, listen carefully and hold on to your phone.”
“Stop building it up and get to the point. Nothing you’ve been up to with your Ricky-boy can be that shocking.”
“Just remember you asked for this.”
“I’m back.” Stella announced from the door. “I got you a falafel and-” She paused when she noticed the look on Danny’s face. He had turned bright red, then slightly green and then red again. He was opening and closing his mouth mutely like a goldfish.
“Are you okay? Danny?”
He didn’t answer. He just shoved the phone to Stella.
“Don? What did you tell him?”
“He just wanted to hear some interesting details about my recent sexlife, so I gave him some.” Don chuckled. “Is he okay?”
“I`m not sure….”
“Is he still standing?”
“Yeah.”
“Can he talk?”
“No.”
“Then be grateful. Thanks to me you can have your lunch in peace.”
“What did you tell him?”
Don repeated his story and Stella nodded understandingly.
“I know, but don’t tell Danny anymore stories. If he doesn’t snap out of that stupor, I’m gonna have to handle the case all by myself.”
“I promise. Is your lunch getting cold?”
“Yeah, but it was nice to hear from you. Have fun.”
“Bye.”
“Bye.”
She hung up. Danny was staring at her with wide eyes.
“Did he tell you about it?”
“He did, and honestly.... I have no idea how that got you so upset.”
“Didn’t you listen that story? That’s…. that’s….”
“A lot of fun.” Stella grinned.
“I need to get laid.” Danny groaned. “If a short, raunchy story can shock me like that, I’m really getting desperate.”
