章節 2: 2) Questioned By Cops and Night Out......

Beau reached his house which was really just a rented place above a shop, he took the side stairs and went inside. Though he had enough for his own place he didn't buy a house or anything instead he stayed here so he didn't have to deal with nosey neighbors.

He only had forty-five minutes until he needed to be at work so he quickly jumped in the shower and got ready for the day. Going downstairs he got into his 2011 Porsche Panamera, it was a black one he had bought when he first came here, putting his truck in storage until he needed it.

It took him twenty minutes to get to the construction site, getting out his car he put on his highlighter safety vest and his hard hat. Walking over to the mobile center he punched in before going to his assigned area, he wasn't close to anyone here so all he got was some quick hello's.

The one thing he like about working he rather then the past one in Texas was that even after working for two hours he wasn't burning under the sun. The only thing he needed to worry about was the slipping as he walked across the high rise, it was hard since they weren't connected by a harness either.

While in the middle of screwing in something he heard someone shout for him, "Beau Miller! You got visitors!!" looking down he saw his foreman looking at him thankfully he wasn't pissed or he would have assumed he was losing his job.

Next to his foreman was two men, one was a white guy with brown hair while the other was a black guy who was watching him closely. After coming down and getting a closer look he saw the badges on their waist and neck, they were detectives for the police department apparently.

"Well hello there, how can I help you fine gentlemen of the law?" Beau asked he had dealt with a lot of officers before and didn't know what kind they were so he was being polite.

"Hello I'm detective Burkhardt and this is my partner detective Griffin. We would like to ask you some questions about your run this morning." Det. Burkhardt said taking out a note pad to write stuff down.

"Okay surrrre..." he answered with a raised brow not knowing how his run could get the cops to look for him.

"Do you run alone every morning Mr. Miller?" Det. Griffin asked looking at him curiously.

"Not every morning, sometimes I go to the gym but nightmares had me up early this morning so I needed a little nature this morning." he answered looking sheepish. It was true he usually went to the gym was because he didn't want to run into troubles like this, he hated attention from others.

"Nightmares huh? Well we saw some surveillance footage of you entering one side and leaving from the other rather than taking the same way back. Did you happen to run past this woman?" Det. Burkhardt asked holding up a picture to him of a girl he recognized.

It was the woman runner he saw this morning who was heading towards the edge of the other entrance that he went in at, "Yeah, I passed by her this morning she was running while listening to music same as me. But she went out the other side close to where I went in at though." He didn't bother hiding it since he hadn't done anything wrong. "Did something happen?"

"This morning she never returned to her dorm after her run and we found her iPod and shoe along the trail. Did you happen to see anything strange while you were there?" Det. Burkhardt asked while writing down what he had just said.

"Not that I can think of. As I said I needed to clear my head if it wasn't for the fact that I had this nightmare I wouldn't have even been there instead I would have been at my gym." he said looking between the two.

"What was this nightmare about?" Det. Griffin asked seeming to not believe his story.

"That's a little personal, let's just say it was about the past." he answered not wanting to go into it it, that made Det. Griffin more suspicious but he didn't ask anymore seeming to let his partner talk.

"Well if you can think of anything else then call us at this number." Det. Burkhardt said while handing over a white card with his name.

Beau had already forgotten about the mailman brushing it off as he was just stopping before he continued his route so he didn't remember the guy. After the two walked a little away he heard what Det. Griffin said about him, "I don't know what it is but that guy is hiding something, let's head back to the station and check him out."

He shook his head and got back to work there was no reason to worry about anything he hadn't done anything wrong so no trouble. At lunch people were talking about him and even his foreman came over to ask what had happen and learning it was nothing they soon started to ignore him again.

Beau didn't hear from the cops again after that so he figured they had found someone else or something else was going on. When he got home he took a shower and decided to go out for a drink, he had messaged Adalind to see if she wanted to join but apparently she was busy for the night.

Shrugging it off he went to a local bar after calling a friend to meet up with him, the guys name was Monroe he was a clock maker. They had met when Beau had called for a repair on an old grandfather clock that he had bought, they hit it off more when he learned that he was a Grimm.

Rather than being afraid like a Blutbad should the two sat down and had a beer, Beau learned what he couldn't from the books from him about Wesen. Now they both had an unlikely friendship, hanging out to get a beer when they both were free seeing as they were both loners they hit it off.

Walking into the bar Beau caught Monroe sitting at the counter with two beers, looks like he was buying the first round tonight. "Hey Monroe, good to see you man." He said patting the man on the shoulder who smiled at him.

Monroe didn't look like most people in the bar instead he was dressed like he was going to spend the night at the library, the guy didn't care about social acceptance. "Hey, How was your day?"

"Ahh you know same old, same old. Though I learned to never run unless I am going to the gym, the cops came by my job today to ask questions about that missing jogger." Beau told him all about it shaking his head at the story.

"You too!?" He said looking surprised, "I had a run in too, there was another disappearance a little girl this time though. The cop Det. Burkhardt even came back later making me break a window the guy is," He looked around making sure no one was listening, "He is a Grimm like you."

That was a surprise for Beau, he had never met another Grimm and hearing the story of how they met it seemed that he didn't know anything about what he was. Beau thought about it and he knew not to blame the guy since he was the same way a year ago when he finally started to see them and he freaked out.

"Wow looks like I might need to talk to him again." Beau said taking a drink from his beer, it was a German brew this was the only place that had them. This was why Monroe came here it was an American/German bar that brought the two together, it was a spot he was actually becoming fond of.

"Yeah I figured that you two would meet again someday to talk about this stuff, but lets forget about that we came to let loose not talk about heavy stuff." Monroe said with a smile he didn't want to talk about that part of life this was their holy ground no business talk, "So what is new?"

"Well nothing much really but I have decided to study more on Wesen, not to the point of hunting them but I want to meet more and learn a more in depth knowledge from them. The books just talk about killing them and not actually getting to know their history, figured I could start with you." Beau said remembering he brought out the trunk for this exact reason.

"Sounds good, you know I am free most nights so just come on over I'll even make some vegan bratwurst that you will love." he started going into detail about it which Beau actually listened too, while not being vegan himself he was when he hung out with Monroe.

"Oh that reminds me I also met a woman today." Beau said remembering Adalind he was hoping to see her soon, he was going to message her later tonight.

"Oh really? Is she dating material or is it to soon to tell?" Monroe asked with interest he was older than Beau by four years but he lived through his dating life rather than having his own.

"I don't know. We haven't talked much but I know she is a lawyer and incredibly beautiful but you know me I don't date so we will see how things play out." He answered taking a sip to finish off his drink and ordering another round.

"Yeah I know how you are. You are young now but remember you will be hitting thirty in five years so at least start looking for someone."

"Says the man who is twenty-nine with a birthday around the corner. Are you looking for anyone? and also what do you want to do this year for your birthday?" Beau said looking at said man, he had a lot of friends but was a loner most of the time.

"Well I didn't want to seem like a loser but I haven't found anyone to join me but there is a clock museum in Happy Valley with some really ancient clocks. What do you say?" He ignored the dig at his relationship status not caring about dating at the moment.

"Why do you need to ask it is your birthday so we do whatever you want to do." Beau said answering back, they had celebrated him two months ago an went to an amusement park with a group of friends it was awesome since it was Halloween.

(A/N: Couldn't find out Monroe's birthday no matter where I looked but I am setting it as mid February maybe March. This is also starting at a different time then the cannon so it is currently mid December.)

The two spent the rest of the night getting drunk, well tipsy since they both needed to drive though Beau's tolerance was extremely high. They finally left around 1am and the first thing Beau did was text Adalind, she reply three minutes later.

B- Hey, are you still up?

A-Yeah this is a big case and there is a lot to get done.

B- Oh can you explain or is it on a need to know basis?

A-Well not really, it was just about that high powered boss from that tech company he is just being accused of embezzlement. It is my job to figure out if he did it and if so somehow get him off.

B-Ahh so you are the bad guy here huh?

A-If that is what you think.....

B-Haha nope, someone as beautiful as you could never be evil. So have you had dinner yet? Better yet where do you work?

A-No, I have been to busy to go and get something. I work at Berman, Rautbort & associates, I just made junior partner, though it caused some money as a buy in. *Eyeroll Emoji*
