It's Hard to Make It Look Easy

"Bri, How'd you like your first location with us?" Nick asked while we waited for our luggage at the Vegas airport

"It was nice, that place was beautiful, I can't wait to see what places we go to next" I said smiling

"That's good to here" he said

then our bags came out, we all got our things and headed out of the airport

"When do I have to head to the office?" I asked

"Whenever you feel like going" Zak answered looking at me

"Ok, so you guys don't mind dropping me off at my brothers house so I can relax before I head to
the office?"

"Of course not" Zak said smiling

He's so cute when he smiles I thought

we all got into the GAC van and headd to my brother's house. Once I was there Aaron got out so I could get out

"You have reached your destination ma'am" Aaron said with his goofy smile

"Thank you Aaron" I said laughing and getting out

"I'll see you guys in a few hours" I said getting my things

"Alright, we'll see you then" they said and headed towards the office

once I got in the house I was greeted by an over excited dog jumping everywhere

"Hey Bella, were you a good girl?"

she barked happily and followed me to my room. I unpacked and then headed to the kitchen and was attacked by Kelly with a hug, she then let go of me

"So how was it?" she asked practically jumping up and down like a teenager that to go to one of her favorite concerts

"It was wonderful" I said smiling

"What are they like?"

"There like normal people, they go out and have fun, they do a job that they love, were they suppose to be different?" I asked raising an eyebrow

"I thought I heard my sis" we heard from the kitchen doorway

"Hey bro" I said hugging him

"How was your trip?"

"It was wonderful, Are you about to go to work?" I said letting him go

"Yeah, Jerry's sick, so I have to fill in for him" Travis said

"When are you getting back?" Kelly asked

"Probably about 9" he said

"Ok" Kelly said alittle sad

"Kelly, I'll be home right after" he said hugging and giving her a kiss on her forehead

"Alright" she said

"Well, I've got to go to the office and edit, I'll probably be back, I don't know when though and I'll take Bella too" I said

"Alright, I'm going to lay down, my head is starting to hurt" Kelly said and went to bed

"I'll see you later Travis" I said

"Alright" he said and walked out the door

"Bella, wanna go bye bye?" I asked

she barked happily and ran to the door and sat down wagging her stubby tail. I put her leash on and we got in the car and took off to the office. When we got there we got out and Bella went potty and we then went inside, we got on the elevator and went to floor 3 and then headed to the review room. I knocked and then entered

"Hey guys, Ihope you don't mind I brought company" I said and let Bella in

"So this is your little Bella?" Nick said kneeling down to pet her

"Yeah, she's cute isn't she?"

"She is, what breed is she again?" Zak said getting up from one of the black leather couches and going to her

"Toy fox Terrier" I answered going to the editing desk and sitting down

"How old is she?" Aaron asked playing with her

"She will be 4 next month" I said watching her run to Zak then Nick, and then finally Aaron

she done that for a minute until she realized someone sitting at the evidence desk and ran to it a jumped in Billy's lap and licked him on his face

How does still she remember him I thought

"Hey Bella" Billy said chuckling and started petting her and she calmed down and sat in his lap

"She really likes you Billy" Aaron said getting up

"I would hope so, I'm the one that got her" he said then his eyes grew big once he realized what he said

I winced

Oh boy I thought

Zak, Nick and Aaron looked at me

"What? She was a birthday present" I said alittle nervous

I know she wasn't my birthday present, but they don't need to know I thought

"Are you sure she was a birthday present?" Nick asked suspicously

"Yeah, why?"

"I'm just messing with you Bri, anyway I've got to get home, my wife and daughter need me" Nick said with a chuckle getting up and headed to the door

"You have a daughter?" I asked

"Yeah, I'll bring her by sometime so you can see her"

"That would be great" I said smiling

"Well see you guys later" he then left.

A couple of hours later Zak and Aaron left and that meant me, Bella and Billy were the only ones in the room. Bella was on a leather couch sleeping while Billy was reviewing evidence and I was editing everything to make an episode. Then there was a knock on the door a Bella woke up and stared at the door while it opened and a woman entered and I looked at her, she was about 5'5 straight brown hair that went to her shoulders, and brown eyes, and then started working again and Bella started growling

"Bella, no" I said still working

"Hey sweetie" the woman said

Billy stopped and looked at her

"Hi Pam, what are you doing here?" he asked curiously

I then stopped working

So that's Pam I thought

then I started to pretend to be working while I listened

"I just wanted to come by and see you, I missed you" she said

Bella then jumped down and started growling again with her ears back alittle

"Well, I missed you to, but you know I've got lots of work to get done" he said

"I know, so when are you coming to my place?" she said

Bella then walked to Billy and started growling at Pam with her ears back, I turned around and watched Bella shocked

What is the matter with her, she's never done that before I thought

"Bella, come here" I said in a stern voice

she came to me and sat in font of me staring at Pam intently, Billy looked at me with a look that said 'what's the matter with her' and I gave him a shrug, then Pam looked at me

"Hello" she said faking a smile

Wow Billy, I didn't think you would like fake girls I thought

"Hi, how are you?"

"I'm doing good, your dog doesn't like me much does she?" she asked still smiling

"She's not like that to people, I don't know why she's like that right now" I said

"Hmm, I wonder why? Billy's dogs don't like me either" she said looking back at Billy

I wonder why, maybe your a fake bit-

I was cut out of my thought when Bella stood up with ears fully back and barking angerly and growling as she walked infront of Billy and stood there

"Bella that's enough" I said sternly

"It's as if the dog is trying to protect you sweetie, why is that?" Pam said

"I have no idea, and I have a filling she's not going to stop until you leave" he said looking at Pam

just then Bella snapped at Pam and Billy bent down and grabbed her by the collar and I got up and went to her

"Bella, that's a BAD GIRL" said taking her to the couch and sat down holding her collar

then she started going wild

"Well, I'll just leave, it was nice seeing you sweetie" Pam said upset and she left

and as soon as Pam left Bella stopped immediately and she was back to her normal self, so I let her go and she ran to Billy and jumped in his lap

"She's never done that" I said

"I wonder why?" Billy asked

"Probably because your so called girlfriend is fake" I said going back to edit video for the episode

"I here some jealousy" he said smirking

"I'm not jealous trust me on that, I'm just stating a fact since you're to blind to see she's playing you"

"What are you trying to say?" he said putting Bella down and getting up and coming to me

"You know exactly what I'm saying" I said unaware that he was behind me

"No I don't know what you're saying" he said turning my chair around to where I looked at him

"Did you know dogs can sense fake people too?" I asked looking at him with a smirk

"Yeah I know" he answered

"Why do you think your dogs don't like her?"

"I don't know"

I sighed

"It's the same reason my dog doesn't like her, she's fake, and don't be getting mad at me bacause
it's the truth" I said

"How do you know she's fake?"

"People can sense fake people too, now don't you have to go over evidence still" I said turning back around

then Billy turned me back around to face him and I rolled my eyes and crossed my arms

"Prove it" he said

"Alright, give me a recorder over there so you will believe me"

he then went over to the evidence desk and got one that didn't have anything on it and gave it to me

"Oh, and I need her number"

"Why?"

"So I can tell her to meet me somewhere"

"Fine" he said and wrote down her number and gave it to me

"Thank you, now get back to work" I said and turned back around and started working again

he sighed and went back to reviewing. A couple of hours later I saved everything I got done and got up

"Well, I'm headed home night Billy, come on Bella" I said

"Bye" he said not looking away from the laptop

me and Bella went home, but before we went home we stopped at McDonalds and got some food.

"Kelly, I got you something from McDonalds" I said handing her a bag when I reache the kitchen

"Thank you, I was just about to fix something" she said taking it and sitting down

I gave Bella some food and sat at the table with Kelly

"Bri, you were going to tell me why you were upset the other day before Nick came to pick you up"

I was hoping she forgot about that I thought

"Well Kelly let's just say I'm working with someone that I didn't want to see again"

"Who?"

"My ex, I work with him now"

"Really, who's your ex?"

"Um, Billy" I said alittle nervous

"Billy, as in Billy Tolley?"

"Yes" I said getting nervous now

"He seems nice when he's DJing at the clubs"

"Oh, don't get me wrong, he's every girls dream in a guy, but somethings telling me he broke up with me 3 years ago to come here and get with Pam, which I got to see her today and she is fake" I said

"He started DJing here 3 years ago and I talked to him, and he said that he broke up with his girlfriend that he loved and that he wasn't looking for someone else, this was befor I met your brother I might add"

"Well apparently he met someone"

"He'll see that she's not the right one, I'm sure he'll come back to you, the question is are you willing to give him a second chance?" Kelly said getting up and throwing her empty wrappers away

"Well, I'm going to go take a bath and then going to bed, night Bri, and just think about that question I asked you" she said and disappeared

I finished my food and threw the wrappers away and me and Bella went to bed. I was laying in my bed with my hands behind my head and looking at the light pink ceiling with Bella curled up on my left side sleeping

"I wonder if I should give him a second chance...And if I do, will he do the same thing he did 3 years ago or will he stay" I said talking to myself

I then turned to lay on my side so I could watch Bella sleep

I guess I could talk to him about what happend and actually understand why he left in the first place I thought

I then dosed off into a dreamless sleep.
