This is for Jay!
Pleas review, even if you hate this fic, I wanna know
Twenty minutes later I had calmed down, thanks to being held by John
"Are you alright now?"
"I think so" I wiped my eyes with the back of my hand, we were in the DCI's office as he wasn't in today.
"I don't like you getting upset Claire" John said quietly looking at me
"You needn't worry about me John, I can handle it" I took John's hand and stroked the back of it
"I'm gonna get Kerry to sit with you while I talk to Deakin"
"Oh don't make a fuss please John"
"I'm not going to don't panic"
"Promise me John"
"I promise, I don't want you getting upset again" John knelt down in front of me
I touched John's face gently "Don't get yourself into trouble"
"I'm not going too" John got up and held my hand "I'll be back in a few minutes, I'll get Kerry to come in"
John left me alone to collect my thoughts, a few moments later Kerry entered
"Hey, feeling any better?" She asked
"Yeah a bit, thanks for picking up my files" I said apologetically
"It's no problem, John's in love with you" Kerry said
"Yeah I know, he really fancies me, he told me this morning"
"Did you two sleep together last night?"
"No we didn't, John slept in the chair then the bed and I slept on the sofa, I knew you'd think we'd spent the night together"
Kerry laughed "I'm sorry, I didn't know what to think when John answered your door this morning"
"How come you called at mine anyway?"
"I came to see if you knew where John was, I didn't expect him to be at yours"
"I don't want you in the office tonight and that is final" Deakin growled
"Fine, but there should always be two officers in the office" John slammed the door behind him
"What have you gone and done?" I said as John walked in with a scowl on his face
John looked up and the scowl disappeared
"Nothing much"
"You best not have been trying to change my shifts"
"I haven't honest"
I looked at Kerry and rolled my eyes
"All right I believe you…. I think"
"Good"
"Anyway, we have to be back at work" I said looking up
"I'll see you back in the office" Kerry said winking at me
I smirked at her as she disappeared out of the room
"We need to talk about what you said this morning"
John swallowed hard
"I don't wanna talk about it Claire, I shouldn't have said anything"
"Well you did, you can't take it back now" I looked at John who bowed his head "Do you wish you could?"
John wouldn't meet my eyes
"Oh, I don't think I'll ever understand you!" I got up and left the room slamming the door behind me.
"Claire?" Kerry said tentatively
"Yes?"
"Is everything sorted?"
"No, we had a row instead" I sighed
I watched Kerry leave the office knowing she was going to talk to John, a few minutes later she returned
"Go and see him Claire, he's really upset" She whispered
I assured Kerry I would and a few minutes later I found myself stood outside Meadow's office, taking a deep breath I opened the door
"Go away Kerry, I know you mean well, but the fact is Claire hates me" John said
I pretended to walk away and shut the door behind me, slowly and very quietly I made my way up to John, leaning down I wrapped my arms around his neck and said:
I'm not Kerry and I don't hate you if that makes any difference"
I'm hoping to get some more of this up tomorrow, I'll apologise now in case I don't- please forgive me!
I love each and everyone of you reviewers so please make me happy and review! Flames greatly appreciated!
