”It was so unexpected, it shocked me.” ~ Gregg Smith

Ainsley had been excited beyond belief that Clint was coming to get him after school and take him on a field trip as Ange had put it. The recent conversations with Harry about his dreams of being a police officer had made him question himself more than he ever had. Why did he want to be a cop? Somehow, coming from a long line of police officers no longer seemed like reason enough, and Ainsley knew that he had to figure it out. The truth was, though, even now, he was convinced that he’d get some experience under his belt, and be absolutely convinced that he wanted to be a cop and was going to love it.
