Alex tapped on the door. Captain Ross motioned for her to enter. He was on the phone. "Can I call you later?" He asked the person on the other end. He then set the phone back in its cradle. "What can I do you for?" he asked.

"Sir, I did not mean to interrupt you," she started to say.

"But, you felt it was important enough to come here," the captain finished her statement. "So, what has you so worried?"

"This." Alex showed him the note Goren got in the envelope. "It was sent to Goren."

Ross looked it over, then asked. "What does your partner say about this?"

"Nothing, sir. He seems to think it's a prank."

"But you're still worried." Ross handed the note back to her. She nodded her head. "It looks like it may be nothing, like Goren says, but let's not forget about it. Keep our ears and eyes opened."

"Yes, sir." Eames left the office feeling a little bit better. She managed to get the note back into Goren'sx notebook before he came back.

Goren stepped off of the elevator and waked over to his desk. He placed a coffee onto Eames' desk. "There, just like you like it. Lots of coffee, very little sugar and cream."

"Thanks," she mumbled, taking a sip of thedark liquid. It's scent filled her nostrils and she secretly was relieved tha Bobby had gone somewhere else to get the java. "Just what I needed."

Goren smiled as he sipped his cappuccino. "So, what did the captain say?" He asked between sips.

Alex nearly choked on her next mouthful. She should have known she couldn't get anything past Bobby. She licked her lips before answering. "He says we should keep our ears and eyes opened."

"Sounds good to me."

"How did you know?" she asked almost afraid of the answer.

"You bent the corner putting it back." Goren gave her that boyish grin of his.

Goren's cell phone rang and Eames was relieved. She found herself thinking about the first time she had met Bobby. She remembered how unconventonal he was, but today she is glad to know this amazing detective.

Her thoughts were snapped back to reality, when she heard Bobby's panic voice. "Calm down, sweetheart. Where are you? (pause) What do you see? (pause) Baby! Baby! (more pause,as someone takes the phone from her) Who is this? (hears crying and screaming) No, no!" His heart was was racing and he feared for her. His phone went silent. He looked at Alex who could see the fear in his eyes.

"What happened?" she asked.

"I don't know. someone has her. He hung up the phone! She was crying and I think he hurt her!" Bobby's fist slammed against his desk and others looked to see what the noise was.

Alex took the phone. "We need to get a trace on this phone!" and she headed down to forensics.

Bobby followed, but he felt so helpless. Why was he a cop if he couldn't help the people who meant more to him. It was tearing him up inside, but he needed to stay calm if he was ever going to find his girlfriend. Ariana, I will find you, he thought to himself.


Alex opened the door to forensics and stepped inside, with Bobby in hot pursuit. Alex knew who she wanted and she found her tucked away looking into a microscope. She cleared her throat to get the young lady's attention.

The girl looked up, "Hey Alex. What's up?" she asked.

"Benj, I-we need your help." Her voice showing the same panic Goren's had just a few moments ago.

"Sounds urgent! What can I do for you?" Benji asked moving away from her microscope.

"Some guy has kidnapped Bobby's girlfriend and we need you to trace a phone call." Alex handed her Bobby's cell phone.

"Bobby has a girlfriend?" Her voice sounding disappointed, but she took the phone and went to her computer.

"You can help, can't you?" Bobby said, unable to contain his patience, causing the girl to jump.

"I didn't know you were there, but I will try." Benji looked at Bobby with sadness in her eyes. It was apparent she had a crush on the detctive, but had never told anyone, except Alex. She took a deep breath and typed some codes into her computer.

After a series of beeps and more typing, a map came up, showing a red dot moving across the boundaries. "They are on the move. Going up hudson and 42nd Street." The girl tried her best not to look into Bobby's eyes.

"Benji, you're a saint!" Bobby grabbed her for a quick hug.

"What's it doing now?" asked Alex looking at the dot that had stopped at a dead end.

Benji looked at the screen. "It seems to have stopped moving. My guess is they had stopped at oneof those building. Isn't that where alot of warehouses are?" She had only lived in New York city for about five years, but with her work schedule, she wasn't one to have much of a social life, so she didn't know NYC very well.

Bobby pulled out a notepad and began writing notes down. Benji found herself staring at the man. She ahd imagined herself in his arms many times, but her shyness had kept her from saying anything to him. He now had a girlfriend which broke her heart in two.

"Yes, it is," answered Eames. She was Benji's best friend, so Ben had confided many times he feelings she ahd for Bobby. She knew if anyone can help them, it would be Benjora. She was one of the best forensic specialists the department had, even if it did break her heart to know the man she as secretly in love with was in love with another girl.

Bobby took his cell phone and put it back into his pocket. "Ready, Eames?" Then to benjora he said, "Thanks for your help."

"I hope you find her." She smiled weakly, before turning back to her miscroscope.

Eames turned to say something to Benji, but she ahd already turned her back on them, so Alex thought it was best to forget about it. She followed Goren out to her car.
