Phonecall for Mac (lost_spiritus)

When his Lieutenant called him into his office, Ray had known what it'd be about before he even stepped foot inside. He spent twenty minutes going through it with Welsh, handed over the folder and waited as it was read. Which didn't take long since it was practically empty.

Golden, C: Missing Person Report.

Ray had filed last week, put out an APB and now that his suspicions had been confirmed, it was out of his hands. He'd already warned Mac that he'd have to call it in sooner or later and when people had starting asking questions about Ray's unofficial investigation, he'd done the only thing he could and gone ahead, made it official.

He felt bad, of course he did. But with Snake getting into things that weren't worth his badge, he'd had to do his job, be the cop, be the adult some might say.

So when he left Welsh's office, he headed straight for the break room, needing coffee like he needed air. He punched Mac's number into his cell and waited for her to pick up.
