Chapter 1

Can I see your phone?

One week after Alicia came to Wills office to ask him a question but Tammy interrupted her plan. She had come in with her destiny in hand but threw it away with a question about Kalinda helping her on a case. Now She was sitting in her office contemplating what would happen. Would she stay married to Peter and never have the man she wanted. Why had Tammy been there? If only she wasn't in Will's life then this would be easier yet more complicated. Kalinda entering Alicia's office interrupted Alicia's thoughts.

"Hey Alicia Bond is back and he wants us to go to the defendants house to see what we can find.

"Ok I'll be right there."

Shutting the door to Alicia's office Kalinda says, "What's up with you?"

"What nothing why does something always have to be up with me?"

"Because you're Alicia, there is always something up with you."

Alicia giggles and says," I'll tell you in the car."

Kalinda hops in the driver's seat and Alicia in the passenger's seat and Kalinda says, "So what's up?"

"Will sent two messages on my phone the night of the press conference. I only got one. The second one is gone or never came in. I never heard it."

Kalinda ponders this and then turns to Alicia.

"Huh, Can I see your phone?" Kalinda asks with a mischievous smile on her face.

With a grin Alicia says, " Ok what are you going to do with it?"

"I'm going to see if I can recover the deleted message."

"Ok, do you want me to drive because we should probably be at the house by now?"

"This will only take a second."

A few seconds of silence pass then Kalinda says, "Got it."

Alicia stunned slowly takes her phone back. She hesitates not sure if she wants to hear the message or not. If she hears the message she will open the door to her feeling again. If she doesn't listen to it then everything could be put to rest. Did she really want it all put to rest? Did she want to be with him? She remembers hearing that a weight had been lifted ever since she hadn't responded so is he relieved? Does she drop the weight back on Will's shoulders or does she forever ponder the thought of them together? Her thoughts are interrupted by Kalinda.

"Are you going to listen to it?"

"I'm not really sure if I want to." A pause and then Alicia hits the play button.

She hears Will's voice….. "No you want to know my plan my plan is I love you"

Once she is done listening Kalinda starts the car.

Alicia says "He has loved me since Georgetown. He loved me in college Kalinda."

"Oh." She drives slowly out of the parking lot and on to the main road.

"What do I do?"

"What do you want to do?"

" I don't know."

"Well lets go scope out the defendants house first than we will focus on this. For know let's focus on the case ok?"

"Thanks Kalinda."
