So that was the first chapter, I hope you liked it.
This is the first story I have published so please be nice, also because I am no native speaker, please forgive me if there are bad mistakes. If someone has an idea how it could go on, fell free to comment, but be nice and please consider that I won't use every idea, for I already have a certain storyboard. But now, have fun:
She stiffened: "Are you sure? I mean, not that I'd mind…"
Becker looked into her eyes. "I…Jess give me a few more days, 'kay?"
She put a hand onto his cheek while she spoke: "I'm not rushing you, Becker. Take your time!" He smiled and his brown eyes were mesmerizing. So beautiful, she thought.
"I guess, you need to go." They hugged one more time before Jessica hopped out of the car.
"Miss Parker, I need you to check my mails and answer them. I really have no time for that right now. The Prime Minister awaits me and I have no idea what to tell him!"
"Yes, sir and a good morning to you too."
"Now, don't be funny, Parker! Come on, hurry up!" Jessica rushed to the ADD. "I'd actually planed on taking you with me for the Minister mistrusts my employees but, Security Standards." Jessica just stared at him.
"Well, what are you still looking at, go to work!" Lester barked and walked towards the entrance.
"I…I am honored, sir." She was speechless, her mouth standing ajar. Lester was already out of the room. Wow!
She slowly sat down. The day was starting out really really well!
As the systems were all started the young woman checked the CCTV and saw that Connor was already in his lab. She hit the com buttons.
"Hey Connor, you are early today!" These last few weeks over, she'd become very close to all of the other team members. The computer genius smiled at the camera.
"Morning Jess! Yeah , I had an idea about something. I might be able to tell exactly when an anomaly will open up and for how long it'll stay open."
"That would be quite efficient."
"Jap, just not sure if it'll work!" He shrugged while he went on working on his new invention.
Jessica never thought that she'd call her working colleagues family but to her it felt like they were her family, especially now as things were working out with a particular army captain.
"Good morning!" Matt approached Jess and hugged her. They were like brother and sister which freaked Becker out and Jess loved to tease him about it.
"Matt, where's Emily?"
"Getting coffee, she's developed an obsession for that stuff now."
"Me too!" Abby joined them. "Jess, please check these protocols! They are for the menagerie and I think something is wrong with the air conditioning down there." Jess grabbed the papers and compared them to the data in her computer. Meanwhile Abby and Matt discussed the last few days that were rather quiet.
After a while Becker entered last…as usual. He walked slowly and the calmness and security he carried was amazing. It was just in his air, only one of the reasons why he was such a good Captain. He was Jessica's rock.
"Too late, as always!"
"What? Did I miss something?"
That moment Connor walked in with his new invention in his hands: "Only Lester flirting with Jessica." He laughed.
"Is that so?" Becker asked cocking his eyebrows at Jess who slightly blushed.
"I heard everything, I tell you if he wouldn't be married…"
"Connor stop right there! Lester didn't flirt with me!" They all laughed or chuckled at Jess' outburst. Everyone except Becker who was leaning against a table, arms crossed over his chest.
"We all know that you are his favourite, that's why he wanted you to accompany him to the Prime Minister!" They all stared at Jess and Connor smirked winking at her.
"Connor!" she hissed, blushing a little more. Becker clicked his tongue.
"Wow." Matt said. Jess wanted to disappear into a hole.
The anomaly alarm went off that second and for once she was glad about it. It just spared her the comments.
