As it turns out, agreeing to a favor ever before knowing exactly what in entailed was a horrible idea. Daniel knew this but oh Paul was his best friend and so of course he’d agreed to it and partially it was so he could get the conversation to end. Just a simple favor he just had to introduce himself to a new guest lecturer. As far as he could tell that didn’t entail anything else then a cup of tea or coffee from the kiosk on campus. Little did Pierce know, the dean may have actually been trying to get Daniel to make a new friend, something about the two Daniels having a similar something about them. 

It wasn’t like this situation was going to be any different than what he had to deal with before, but something new can always happen and now as Drake stared at the man in the chair, duct taped, blooded and looking more tired as the time passes he had to keep his game face on, he couldn’t crack, he couldn’t show that he was emotionally invested in the man before him. That the night as the bar didn’t end in them spending the night and enjoying on another’s company. Drake Conners had to play it cool and get Daniel out of this building before the alleged bombs go off, he didn’t know why Daniel had been placed in this and kidnapped, he didn’t want to think that it would be his fault that Daniel was in danger because of him. 

It was one of them cases that Drake just simply knew it was going to break out in some kind of fight. Drake was yelling, the culprit was yelling and even the victim that his team was trying to save was also yelling. It was bringing quite a bit of attention to the scene but thankfully his team was keeping the people at bay and keeping them out of harms way by telling them to back off and not cause more issues than was was already happening. “Get out of the fucking car! Don’t touch anything!” You could hear Conners yelling as he pointed at the man, Kent his partner was beside the male suspect’s vehicle also yelling for him to get out. Then it wasn’t long that Kenneth came up to the passenger side telling the woman on the other side to cover her face as he broke the window opening the door and pulled her out. Drake did the very same although he just pulled the man out the broken window space. “Could have just listened!” Kent yelled as Drake was getting his cuffs out from behind. “Hey Drake, look your buddy is here.” Kent commented nodding towards Daniel who was watching the scene unravel. 

Kenneth got the woman under control and to the side where she cried and told her side of the story, that this was an obsessive boyfriend attempting to kidnap her. Drake was listening but also looked up to where Kent was nodding towards spot Daniel. A quick smile on his lips as he moved up on his feet pulling the man up as Kent got up after taking hold of him. It was quick and smooth when the man elbowed Drake in the lip causing it to spit and bleed causing him to fall to the ground. Kent shoved the man away from Drake putting him on the ground when Sanders and Amy came and tackled the man as well. “Now you really fucked up.” Kent said to him, picking him up with Sanders as Amy ran up to Drake checking him out then called for ETM’s to come to the scene to check on Drake. He was a bit out of it, when Daniel was in front of him after the culprit and the woman were taken away. 

Daniel laughed shaking his head.

What are you doing go back to him he's cute and couldn't take his eyes off you as soon as he returned he was all but shoved to go back to talking to the man at the bar.

Hey don't sit there in your own come over

"I think I'm good over here thanks" he laughed into his glass shaking his head and gestured that he was gonna go have a cigarette instead of joining any of that ruckus of people m.

Letting out another laugh Drake did recall that woman being very loud and he just wasn’t having none of it besides giving her a look every now and then when he felt slightly annoyed. “She did do a lot of yelling now don’t she?” He replied with a cheeky grin and shaking of his head as he looked down for a second then back up at Daniel. “Is that so eh.” He said intrigued by that. “What are some ideals that would get you to write about them?” He asked curiously, still hearing his team mates in the background being obnoxious in their teasing ways towards the officer. “Indeed, they can’t handle me talking to others when around. It’s a long story.” He said making an awkward expression for a second then Chuckled. Listening to him about exchanging numbers he nodded and got his phone and opened it for him to place his contacts in. It was very much a plain looking phone, not much saved on it, his team, his boss and that was about it when it came to numbers. His photo gallery empty. “Well at this moment I much rather talk to you.” He admitted with a soft smile as his blues looked at him. “I think they think they’re watching the discovery channel or some shit.” He mentioned moving his left hand going his team the finger and laughed a bit. 

After the exchange and getting his phone back Drake said his see you laters for now and thanked for the beer. Then looked over as he took his time walking back towards his team where he heard them. Making a flustered expression he hummed listing to them call Daniel over which made Drake a bit more flustered looking back over at Daniel he then shook his head chuckling.
