A/N Sorry for the long wait for an update! I had a hard time figuring out where I wanted this to go. Then this weekend our best friends came to visit. I hope you enjoy what I came up with! xo AG
"Are you fucking kidding me, Jasper? I don't need to know about your grooming habits. Lets head back to the station and see if there's anymore news from Alice. We need to get that laptop to Emmett, too." I started walking toward the door, and when I noticed he wasn't behind me stopped and asked "Coming?"
I thought I heard him mumble, I wish, but I wasn't sure. I just pretended I didn't hear anything and walked back to the car.
The drive back to the precinct was quiet and I had to wonder what was going on in Jaspers mind. I was so in my own head I didn't even hear him when he spoke.
"Hello, Earth to Swan. Where the hell did you go? I'm glad I'm driving, wouldn't want to end up dead cause you decided to day dream, but seriously, you alright?"
He really looked concerned. It made me wonder what I had been doing while thinking. I looked over at him and he was still looking at me every now and then.
"I'm fine, why do you ask? What made you think something was wrong?" Way to babble like an idiot, Bella.
"You spaced out, and you look pale, are you feeling alright? Maybe you need to head home and rest for the day? I can handle things around here."
"Thanks for offering, but I'm good. Just preoccupied, ya know, with work, and uh s-s-stuff." Kill me now, I'm fucking stuttering now? Why now, what has changed that he is flustering me this much?
"Right, work and stuff. I get that. Well, just so you know, you can talk to me if you ever need to." He nodded his head at me.
Finally back at the precinct we headed down to talk to Emmett and see if he found anything on the laptop we had sent back earlier. I was so screwed if I didn't get this attraction to my partner under control.
One more quick thing. Real life is kind of kicking ass right now. I hope you understand if we are slow to update. Love!
