White Collar characters are not my property!
"Hey! Any news?"
Neal dropped on the couch next to Jamie and shook his head, the case had quickly unfolded into Neal and Peter's biggest one yet, turns out the ADA was connected to the mob, drug lords, you name it. Weeks had passed and the case got bigger and bigger with each breakthrough. "Oliver got too deep in something bigger than he was. The ADA isn't even suspicious yet, which is good, Peter said I might do some undercover work soon."
Jamie looked at Neal worriedly, "Be careful okay? I can't..."
Neal pulled her into a hug, "When am I not careful?"
Jamie laughed and rolled her eyes, "Neal, I know you better than that, you're impulsive."
"No! Well...okay you got me there, this time though, I'll try to be good, for you."
"Well, I guess that makes me feel a little better, but what if I gave you incentive. Then would you promise to be good?"
"Oh? And what kind of incentive is this?"
"I think you know what kind," Jamie said as she jumped up from the couch and sauntered into the bedroom.
Neal laughed and followed, closing the door behind him.
One Week Later...
"Hello?"
"Neal, you need to get out of there, the ADA's gotten suspicious."
"Peter, are you sure? We were doing so well..."
"You've already given your invoice, family crisis, you'll be 'out of town' for a month and by then we'll have a warrant."
"All right, I just left the building."
"Good, I'm outside."
Neal hung up and got in the car.
"Peter why are you so nervous?"
"We uncovered something big Neal, the ADA is a dangerous man. He's been blackmailing witnesses into perjury and some have even died by not listening to him."
"But why do I have to get out of there? I was doing fine...no one suspected me in particular."
"I just don't like this guy all right Neal? I don't want anyone getting hurt on this job. I'm taking you home and I'll call you if I have any news.
Neal looked at Peter like he had two heads, but nodded and texted Jamie that he was getting off work early.
The rest of the drive was quiet, Peter seemed really worked up about the ADA so Neal kept to himself. He thought it was a little odd that Jamie didn't text back, but brushed it off, thinking she must be in the middle of a painting.
When Peter drove up to June's, Neal spoke up, "Want to come up for some coffee? You are leaving me all alone, its the least you can do."
Peter rolled his eyes but complied, following Neal up the stairs. Peter sat down on the balcony while Neal put the coffee on and went to take off his jacket and tie. When he came back out he was looking at his phone, and his face had paled.
"Neal! What's wrong? You look like you've seen a ghost!"
Neal just shook his head, and held out his phone, on the screen was a text from Jamie:
Come find me
