"Hey, you're up early." Alexis said walking into the kitchen with my robe wrapped around her.

"Couldn't sleep. Plus, the movers are coming today and I still haven't put anything into boxes." I said taping the lid of the cardboard box containing dishes.

"You're still going to move."

"Now more than ever, I mean he broke into my apartment last night. I need some more security." I said throwing books into a box. Trying to get my mind off of last night. I taped the box shut and grabbed the next one, taking it into my bedroom and opening my dresser.

"Jasper, can you stop for second?" She asked as I dumped the drawers into the box.

"What else do you want me stop?" I asked a little to loudly, making her jump. I turned to look at her hurt expression.

"Nothing. I'm going to go." She said taking off my robe and grabbing her coat from off the bed.

"Alexis, wait." I said walking after her.

"No, do what you want." She said opening the door and running into the movers. "Excuse me." She said squeezing past them.

"Mr. Bracken, we're from the moving company. Is everything packed up?"

"Most of it. You guys start with the furniture and boxes that are out here. I'll just finish up with my bedroom. Thanks." I said getting back into business mode. Our fight was going to have to wait.

The movers left with my belongings and soon I was dropping my keys off at the landlords office. I stepped out onto the busy New York street. It was snowing, the roads and sidewalks were a bit slippery and yet the city was still buzzing with energy.

Since I was planning on withdrawing from the election, I had called Miss White and told her to cancel my volunteer work for the day. Leaving me with nothing to do and nowhere to be.

I turned the corner and stepped right into a crowd of paparazzi. They saw me and immediately started taking pictures and asking questions, such as:

"Mr. Bracken, what do you have to say about your father's statement last night?"

"Are you still running, even though he does not approve?"

"You're number one in the polls, do you think his statement will bring you down?"

I put my hand up and said, "No comment."

After losing them inside of a coffee shop, I picked up pastries and coffee. If Alexis was going to forgive me for my sudden outburst this morning, I might as well make her a little happy when I tell her my decision.

I stepped off the elevator and into the hallway that lead to the morgue. I opened the double doors of the morgue and was met with the smell of autopsy fluids. Not only was Alexis there but, Lanie was as well. They had a man open on the table and when they saw me, Lanie grabbed the white sheet and pulled it over the body.

"I'll leave you two alone. I have to go tell Beckett something." She said making it known that she knew of the fight this morning.

"What are you doing here?" Alexis said snapping her gloves off and throwing them away.

"I wanted to bring you coffee and a bear claw. I also wanted to apologize for saying that this morning. I was angry at my dad and I shouldn't have taken it out on you." I said sitting the bag and cup on her desk as she sat down on the other empty examination table.

"I don't want you to resent me so, if you want to risk your life, our life, to be a council member then do it. I can't stand in the way of that because it will just tear us apart later."

"I can't live my life in fear, Alexis. So, I'm going to continue my campaign and I want you by my side." I said stepping in between her legs and leaning my forehead against hers.

"Jasper…" She whispered.

"Please, Alexis."

"Please be careful, that's all I ask."

"Trust me, you can't get rid of me that easily." I said leaning in to kiss her. She wrapped her arms around my neck, raking her fingers through my messy blonde hair. I pulled back, "I'm picking you up later tonight at the loft. You and I are doing something tonight."

"Ok. I have to get back to work."

"See you later, gorgeous." I said winking at her as I gave her one last chaste kiss before exiting the morgue.
