I love you all... No honestly I DO! I have never had so many reviews, I should stick to writing Primeval! Anyway, this is a bit of a random chapter, but I know everyone wants some Jess/Becker time with no one around! So here, have it!
It wasn't until late on Saturday night that Jess realized she definitely wasn't the average nineteen year old girl, while her friends were out partying, she was sitting in front of a TV watching some crap program… She suddenly found herself thinking she did not have a life outside of the ARC anymore. Where was Abby and Connor when she needed them? She leant back on her sofa, sipping on the glass of white wine she had poured an hour before, these were the times she missed living with her parents.
Jess plugged her iPod in, and started singing along, "So I don't wanna be One of the B-b-b-oys…"
She danced into her bedroom, placed her wine down and sifted through her wardrobe. She pulled out a tight red dress that she only wore on special occasions; she threw on some high shoes, downed her wine, turned off the music, picked up her bag and headed out her front door.
Digging out her phone, she typed in a number she knew she could always rely on, "Hey Amy, meet me at the pub, I need a drink and then we need to hit a club!" Smiling at the response, she said bye and put her phone away.
"I cannot believe I'm seeing you, babes!" Amy laughed and pulled Jess into a hug, "It's been too long, and damn, you look hot, you are so getting some tonight!"
"I don't want some!" Jess pushed her friend slightly, "But thanks, anyway, drink?"
"Get me a glass of white!" Jess made her way to the bar and waited to be served.
"Two glasses of white wine, please," Jess asked, just as she was about to hand over her money a voice came from behind her,
"Add a Bud to that and I'll buy," Jess knew that voice.
She turned around and looked up at the man who wouldn't leave her head, "My, my, my, Captain Becker… Out for a drink?"
He smirked again, Jess blamed the alcohol for the way her knees crumpled a little bit, "Even a soldier needs a drink occasionally,"
"Of course, so buying me a drink?"
"Aye," He handed over the money, and Jess grabbed the two wines and waited for Becker to follow her to the table Amy had picked.
"Thanks Becker," Jess smiled brightly and nudged him lightly, "By the way, this is my best friend Amy, Amy, this is Captain Becker, I work with him,"
"Hi sexy!" Amy giggled, "I can see why you like him," She whispered, Jess blushed bright red.
"I don't like him!" Jess whispered back,
"Sure you don't!" Amy said, "So, Jess never told me what she does, so who do you work for?"
"Well… Uh, Jess help please?" Becker turned to Jess and with two worried faces, they turned back to Amy and thought about what to say.
"We could always just tell her we catch dinosaurs, she'd never believe us!" Jess whispered into Becker's ears, and yes, she noticed the way he shivered a little bit.
"Yea, 'Amy, we catch dinosaurs' That won't sound mental at all!" Becker rolled his eyes, Jess shivered too as his breath tickled her ear.
"Fine, what should we say?"
"Amy, we work for a secret government organization, we just do a lot of odd stuff, not really interesting!" Becker smiled brightly and made sure that Amy was shocked enough not to ask questions.
"So, did you stalk me here?" Jess asked.
"Of course not, I come here quite a bit, you know after you've had a busy day, all you need a is a drink!"
"That's funny, I've never seen you here before," She crossed her legs, and noticed that Becker looked down as her already short dress rode up slightly, "Enjoying the view?"
"Uh… What?" Becker shook his head a bit, and looked back at her face,
"You were staring at my dress, you perv!" Jess giggled slightly, and noticed that her friend had come out of her confused stupor.
"Jess, your friend is a nutter," Amy muttered, she pulled her drink towards her, and swallowed most of it in one gulp. There was a beeping noise and Amy pulled out her phone, "Oooh, Owen is back from uni! Gotta go babe, see you later!" She finished her drink, kissed Jess' face and disappeared out of the door.
"Wow, that was fast!" Becker watched as Amy vanished.
"Yea, she does that, I let her off because she barely see's Owen, he goes to Southampton uni," Jess mumbled, nesting her glass in her hands.
"I used to live there, born and bred in Romsey,"
"I know, I read your file," It was her turn to smirk now.
"Oh yea, I forget you do that," Becker laughed.
"I also know it well, my mum's sister lives in Chandler's Ford,"
"I went to school there! Used to catch the bus everyday because my mum didn't like Romsey and decided I should go to-"
"Toynbee?"
"Yes, and you should stop reading so much, I'll have nothing to talk to you about!"
"We shall see." Jess bit her lip and looked up at him.
"We will? Have you got something planned?"
"Yea," She chucked the rest of the wine back, stood up, winked and walked out.
Becker watched her walk away, her dress hitching up a little bit more with every step. He drank his beer and followed her out.
"Where are you taking me, Parker?" He called to her as soon as they were outside; she only took his hand and pulled him along, He only had a moment to wonder how on earth she managed to walk in her heels, before she pulled him into a dark alley and the hand wrapped around his felt a little tighter, "Jess, where are going?"
"In here, I want to see how good you are at dancing," She stopped a second, and leaned up to kiss the corner of his mouth, with the shock he felt right then, she could easily pull him inside the dark, loud club.
Before he even had a chance, she had pulled him onto the dance floor, and laughed at the stunned look on his face, "Come on, C'ptain, show me your moves," She teased him with another kiss to the side of his mouth, and smirked as he wrapped his arms around her and let everything go as he danced.
Right so, basically, if you read Primeval info and stuff, it actually says Becker was born in Romsey, which is awesome, because I live in Chandler's Ford, which is a place no one knew even existed until a bank got robbed and people died a few years ago - Gosh it sounds rough! But Toynbee exists (I went there!) I just thought I'd throw in the info I knew about the place, because Jess likes reading up about people... And shut up Jess (myself)! Uh... review?
