"Dad's gone," my cousin's voice was barely above a whisper. "You must come home for the Evaluations," she uttered and the phone line went dead.

He was here and he was getting closer.
I heard the same screech coming from the floorboards as when Kelly and I had stepped over one particular spot, but that wasn't what gave away Callum's proximity. The air was charging up more and more, the electric current growing stronger, letting me know who my mate was and where they were. The phenomenon wouldn't go away until we've consummated our relationship, and not even then. If we were to end up together, the feeling would lessen and only manifest when we were touching, but it would still be there, weak, but present.
Or at least, so I'd heard. I couldn't speak from experience. By staying away from Callum, the recognition mechanism, as some called it, was constantly on in his presence, powerful and keeping me alert.
I gulped, my eyes not leaving my cousin, who was with her back to me and plucking darts off the board. I couldn't let her know I'd sensed the Detective; what if she figured out the reason for it?
Kelly turned around, her gaze on someone behind me - I knew all too well who - and smiled.
"Hey, boss!" She chirped as she walked towards me and stood by my side. "Didn't expect to see you here."
With Kelly having addressed him, I had to turn around and meet the man myself. I did so just in time to see him - no more than three feet away from us - nod.
"Kelly. Miss Greer."
My peripheral vision caught Kelly rolling her eyes.
"When are you going to stop calling her 'Miss Greer'?" She asked. "You make her sound like an old unmarried woman."
