when i see your smile tears roll down my face

not alot has happened. tomorrow is picture day and i have no idea what i want to wear and i gotta straighten my hair which takes forever. blah stupid picture day. danny got his cell phone fixed so i was thinking of calling him sometime this week...if i stop being a total coward. what the hell am i afraid of? it's just danny. i used to talk to him everyday. grrr i don't get my own mind sometimes. hmmm maybe he should call me? yeah, but i don't see him doing that. anyhoo i am so in love with my kitten patrick. he is pure adorableness. he's so cute and fluffy and he's got big wide blue eyes and he's a chubby little thing, and he has such a funny little personality. he's taken a liking to crawling up on my blanket while i'm sleeping so i feel a fuzzy kitten next to my foot when i wake up. he also likes to walk on my head. i must put a picture up of him sometime soon because you all would just think he was so cute. i asked my mom if my dear friend jenny could move in with us and she was like "yeah." and i was like "for reals?" and she was like "yeah." huzzah, i would love if jenny lived with meh. ugh i got assigned to be yearbook editor for the yearbook class and i don't really want to be but i had the title forced upon me because i was the only yearbook veteran in the room. ok well i am keeping this short because it is time for the newest chapter of murder and lyrics. i hope people read it, i'm sorry if it's kinda boring but it picks up soon trust me because we are kinda creeping towards the ending. so yeah read and enjoy. murder and lyrics: chapter seventeen: money makes the world go round danielle had left the meeting with josiah not with the case breaking information she had hoped for but his info wasn't bad. daniel and jake had gotten into an argument the day before he died. jake hadn't mentioned that or that he had met with josiah and daniel either. but cassie hadn't mentioned that daniel and jake were on bad terms so maybe the argument wasn't as bad as she thought. either way danielle called up timothy and met up with him at the station. "get this." he said to her as the duo sat in her office. danielle looked up from the paper she was filling out to look at timothy. "daniel and his old friend jake were in a band back when they were teenagers." he told her as he took a seat across from her. danielle failed to see the importance of this fact. "so?" she asked as she wondered where he got that information. "so they were planning on becoming famous together. but then their band broke up and daniel joined a new band, the same band that got him insanely famous." timothy told her as he seperated papers into piles on the table before them. "what you think maybe jake was jealous? or held a grudge or something?" danielle asked "maybe at first." timothy began "but then i'd say that jake rather liked having daniel in the music business." he said "what do you mean?" she asked as she continued to comb through the piles of papers on the desk. "well, it looks as if daniel was paying jake's living expenses for the last year and a half." timothy said as he held up a paper that listed a series of different numbers. "these are a list of different bills all in jake's name but not paid by jake, some are paid under the intials D.H. and some are just nameless cash exchanges." timothy finished as he scanned the paper. "so you think jake enjoyed the free ride?" danielle asked. timothy nodded and it seemed reasoniable. "if that's true then jake wouldn't want daniel dead or hurt because then his cash would be gone. so why wouldn't he warn daniel or the police about the potential threats that lexi was making?" timothy wondered out loud. "he was afraid." danielle said as she remembered back to when she had asked jake that same question. "afraid that he end up the way daniel did." she added. "but, josiah told me that daniel mentioned that he wanted to take a break for awhile. stop performing for a bit, jake got upset and they argued." "maybe jake was worried that daniel wouldn't be his cash cow anymore." timothy suggested "i think we need to see cassie about this." danielle replied. danielle and timothy called cassie and they found out she was at home, she agreed to meet with them so the duo drove there quickly. cassie lived in a slightly upscale apartment building far nicer then the one jake lived in. cassie was waiting for them out on the stoop of her building. she was dressed nearly the same as the first night they had met, in her casual jeans and another different t-shirt sporting the band's logo. cassie greeted them warmly as they pulled up infront of her. "we just want to ask you a few questions about daniel's finances." timothy said as he and cassie shook hands. cassie nodded. "that's fine, what would you like to know?" she asked and danielle noted that it was the calmest they had ever seen her, she also noted that cassie seemed to have lost a bit of that unbearable sadness that had been surrounding her as of late. "well, we were wondering if you knew anything about an agreement or deal between jake and danny?" timothy asked, cassie gave a blank stare as though she were searching her memories for any information. "mmm what kind of deal?" she asked and danielle wondered if she didn't know or if she was just being reluctant to spill something she wouldn't have to. "i mean did danny ever offer to pay things for jake? like electric bills, cell phones, rent?" timothy asked, this time cassie anwsered quickly. "yeah, jake was a little hard up for cash so danny was being generous and said he would pay jake's bills for awhile." she told them. danielle and timothy nodded "so how long did this arrangment take place?" danielle asked, cassie shrugged. "i'm not sure exactly. i didn't handle danny's money." she told them as she moved to lean against the thick concrete railing. "you didn't? but you were his manager/personal assistant." timothy argued, cassie shrugged again. "yeah, but i was really horrible with numbers and danny knew that so we agreed that i wouldn't be the one to deal with his money. i only knew about the deal between them because danny told me about it." she said "well then who did deal with his money?" timothy asked. "well, it was someone from the 'oliver's accounting' business." she told them and promptly gave them their busines card. danielle and timothy had nothing more to ask cassie so they left, as they drove away they noticed a familar looking limo round the corner and park infront of cassie's place. timothy called the accounting office as danielle drove and they found out they wouldn't be able to get daniel's records for two days. disapointed the detectives went back to file more paperwork. ********************************************************************************** why would jake risk daniel's life when he was paying jake's bills? why does cassie seem suddenly a lot less sad? why is josiah visiting her when he has such a tight schedule? find out next time! p.s. out of curiosity whose your favorite muder and lyrics character? ~red~
