I am trash for this game and Jones. So I decided to do a reader insert since the reader is meant to be the player. It's also gender neutral as well!

NOTE: The Crimson Order was defeated, Chief King is still dead, but the player NEVER left Grimsborough! It takes place after the last case!

Never Would I Ever

Chapter 1 -

Jones was feeling great! He didn't have a case, it was a beautiful day, even more so since the Crimson Order was defeated, and he had cookies!

He was just on his way back to his desk, that just so happened to be next to yours but he stopped walking when he heard two people talking. One sounded to be Ramirez and the other was Officer Juliet Spencer.

Looking around the corner, he couldn't help but overhear their conversation since he was curious.

"I'm so happy Grimsborough can finally be peaceful again with the Crimson Order gone!" Juliet sighed in relief.

"I know!" Ramirez replied, with a smile.

'You can say that again.' Jones thought to himself.

"It's a good thing Jones didn't succeed in killing (Y/N), huh?" Juliet asked.

'Huh?' Jones thought, completely confused.

"Yeah." Ramirez nodded. "But don't go around saying that to him."

"He really doesn't remember?" Juliet questioned and Ramirez shook his head. "Wow…yet poor (Y/N) does! I can't imagine what it'll be like to have your own partner turn his gun on you and come close to pulling the trigger."

'I never pulled my gun on (Y/N)…' Jones thought to himself.

"But I was there." Ramirez smiled. "With my trusty frying pan."

"Yeah thank God for that!" Juliet nodded. "You saved their life!"

"I'm surprised that (Y/N) didn't seem all that scared." Ramirez said. "But then again, maybe they were and they just hid their fear. Especially after the trial when Jones came up to us. We were so relieved when we realized he didn't remember the interrogation room. Later on we agreed not to say anything about it."

"So what does he think happened?" Juliet asked.

"I think he said something about falling down the stairs when they went to arrest Tess?" Ramirez said after thinking for a minute.

"I guess it's a good thing he wasn't at the trial. God knows what that psychopath would've tried to put into his head. Hell, she probably would've tried to hypnotize him again." Juliet said.

"Yeah. We made sure she didn't have a pendulum or anything on her after the interrogation room incident." Ramirez replied. "Couldn't risk something like that happening again."

"How did (Y/N) react during the trial?" Juliet questioned.

"They kept pretty calm whenever Tess spoke. But I definitely noticed that they seemed bothered and maybe even angry when she mentioned Jones and how he would snap one day. Along with how they had to be careful when approaching him." Ramirez said.

'Snap? Why would I snap?' Jones asked himself.

"It was just so creepy…" Ramirez continued. "Especially the smile she gave (Y/N) as she was led away afterwards." Ramirez shuddered.

"Do you know why she went after (Y/N)? Or why she used Jones?" Juliet asked. "I know it was something about a…thesis."

"I'm not sure why she went after (Y/N) the way that she did. But I think she wanted to show that everyone has a murderer inside them and gave those girls and Jones a little push to bring theirs out. Plus (Y/N) dying by their partner would've fulfilled her master plan." Ramirez said. "But we agreed that not everyone is a murderer. Especially not Jones."

At that point, Jones had heard enough and headed back towards the case files room. He was going to look for the Rorschach case and find the truth out for himself.

Eventually he found the case and finished his cookies at the same time.

"It's not true." Jones muttered to himself. "I fell down the stairs…I didn't try to kill (Y/N)."

Looking through the file, he scanned over to where it said all of Tess' convictions. One of which stated that she manipulated a officer into killing his partner and as such, the attempted murder of a officer was a conviction too. But it didn't state the name of the officers involved.

"That's odd… it should say who it was… unless Chief King and… (Y/N) made it so it didn't say…" Jones said, confused.

Getting the file back in order, he put it away where it was meant to be. He decided to go ask (Y/N) about the case and what really happened. After all, his partner of all people should tell him the truth.

Leaving the room, he headed to the bullpen and walked up to his and (Y/N)'s desks. Sitting in his chair, he rolled himself closer to you and tapped your arm to get your attention.

"(Y/N)?" Jones said.

"Hey, Jones." You turned to him with a smile. "What's up?"

"Can I ask you something?" Jones questioned.

"Of course." You said, feeling a little confused.

"What happened during the end of the Rorschach case? I mean, what really happened to me?" Jones asked.

"You know what happened." You said, now a little nervous. "You fell down the stairs and Ramirez helped me with Tess."

"But I heard Ramirez and Juliet talking…they mentioned how I pulled my gun out of you." You looked at him, shocked that he heard that. It seems he noticed your look, because he continued. "So I went and looked at the case and sure enough, Tess was convicted of a couple of things. Manipulating a officer was one along with attempted murder of another officer."

"And…?" You asked.

"But it didn't say who the officers were. Who were they, (Y/N)?"

"It doesn't matter." You said. "Both officers are fine. There's nothing to worry about anymore."

"They said that Tess said I would snap…you know I would never hurt you. Right?" Jones asked, looking down.

"Right." You nodded.

"So why won't you tell me?" Jones asked.

"It doesn't matter. It's in the past now, let's move forward." You replied.

"How can I after hearing that I almost killed you?" Jones shook his head and got up.

"Where are you going?" You asked, worried.

"For a walk…" Jones replied and walked away.

You felt bad but knew it was better if he didn't know what happened. Especially the terror you felt when he pulled the gun out of you. You acted fine and not bothered by it but deep down, you were scared. Your entire life flashed before your eyes at that moment.

On the other hand, you were going to have to talk with Ramirez and Juliet about being careful where they talked about certain things that were meant to stay as a secret.

Once Jones was out of sight, you went back to doing your paperwork.

Meanwhile, Jones went to see Alex and Cathy.

"Hey, guys!" Jones kind of barged inside.

"Hey, Jones." Alex turned to him. "What's up?"

"I need to ask you something." Jones replied.

"What's that?" Cathy asked.

"Did I try and shoot (Y/N)?" Jones said and the two others glanced at each other for a moment.

"No." Alex lied. "Why?"

"I heard Ramirez and Juliet talking about it and read Tess' convictions in her case file." Jones replied. "Why won't you guys tell me the truth? I've tried (Y/N) but they won't tell me either."

"It simply doesn't matter, Jones." Cathy replied. "The two officers involved are both alive and their normal selves."

"So…why can't I know what happened?" Jones then realized something and his eyes widened slightly. "Hey…you guys aren't scared I'll try and do something… right?"

"Like what?" Alex asked.

"Like try to kill (Y/N) again? That's why you aren't telling me what happened." Jones asked.

"Jones, we know you would never hurt (Y/N). It was just… a hard day. Let's just move on. Stop worrying about something that isn't there." Cathy said.

"I… alright." Jones sighed, knowing he wasn't going to get anywhere.

"Good." Alex nodded.

"I'll see you around… I guess" Jones said, before leaving.

"See yah." Alex said as Cathy waved.

"Why did those two talk about it in front of him?" Cathy asked, once Jones was out of earshot.

"I don't know." Alex shook his head. "We agreed not to mention it to him. Since he didn't remember anyway. He really doesn't need to know what all Tess said and did that day or during trial for that matter."

"Hopefully he'll just forget about it." Cathy said to him.

"I agree." Alex responded.

Jones had left the couple alone and went back to the case filing room.

He was confused, hurt, and even angry. Why was no one telling him what had happened? He would never hurt his partner so why were they keeping it from him.

Jones does understand that it was probably a hard day to get through afterward but he still deserved to know the truth. He wasn't going to snap or anything like Ramirez and Juliet said.

Find the case, he took it out again. He then went to where there were statements made by anyone, like a witness.

Looking through the papers, he did find a statement in familiar handwriting at the back of the file, almost hidden.

"What's this?" Jones took it out and looked it over. "I definitely recognize this handwriting…and it seems to be a statement about what happened in the interrogation room too…"

Taking the file with him, he went to sit down at a table that was inside the room and began to read it over.

Review pleas. I love them! :D
