Woody got offered a job with the Sunset Division out in L.A. He Went to
talk to Jordan about it, trying to decide if he should take the job or not.
He went to Jordan's apartment, she greeted him happily.
"Hey Woody!" she smiled.
He smiled back at her. "You wanna talk a walk with me?"
She looked at him quizzically. "A walk?" she inquired skeptically.
"Yeah, come on, It's really nice out"
"Okay" she finally conceded. She hooked her arm in his. They walked around for a little while, talking about general things. They sat down on a park bench. Woody stared at her trying to think of a way to start the conversation he'd been planning in his head.
"What's up Woody?" she asked sensing his nervousness.
"I want to talk to you about something, it's important"
She sighed and turned her head away from him.
"Look Woody if this is about us, I really can't deal with this right now"
He looked down at the ground uncomfortably.
"Well it wasn't about us, if there even is an us, but I guess now it is"
She watched him, waiting for an explanation.
He stood up and started pacing, then sighed heavily as he made a decision.
"Woody, what's wrong?" What are you trying to tell me?"
"I'm moving to L.A. Jordan"
"What?"
"Yeah, I worked with the Sunset Division while I was out there the last time. They're an incredible department and they've offered me a job, it's a great opportunity"
She stared blankly at him then started to laugh. He watched her questioningly.
"God, I'm so stupid, here I thought you came to talk to me about me and you when all you really wanted was to tell me you're leaving" She said walking away from him.
"It's really kind of ironic isn't it? Since this is what I expected you to do all along, I mean you've put up with my crap for so long and you never gave up on me, through the worst of it you were there. Now that I was finally starting to trust you, you decide to skip town" she said walking away from him laughing, but obviously angry.
He stood there for a minute watching her walk away, trying to figure out what to do. He hurried to catch up with her. He grabbed hold of her arm angrily spinning her around to face him.
"Wait just a minute here, why are you getting mad at me? Two seconds ago you were telling me you couldn't handle a conversation about us, let alone anything actually happening"
"Well I guess it doesn't matter now does it?" She asked coldly, trying to walk off ahead of him again.
He tried to control his emotions. "Jordan, I came to you looking for a reason to stay and the first thing you say is that you can't deal with this right now. How am I supposed to feel about that?'
"Well it seems you've already made your decision and I can't give you a reason not to go so why don't you just go?" She said running off.
He thought it over the next few days. He wanted to stay, he liked Boston and his job here but he thought it would be better for him to move on. If he couldn't have Jordan he had to get over her one way or another and he wouldn't be able to do that if he stayed and saw her everyday.
"Hey Woody!" she smiled.
He smiled back at her. "You wanna talk a walk with me?"
She looked at him quizzically. "A walk?" she inquired skeptically.
