I decided to write a couple of more chapters to my one shot, please let me know what you think. Thankyou to everyone who's read my story.
Noble just stares at me, no real expression on his face. It's been like this for almost an hour. Some of his guys had grabbed me outside the precinct. I had spent the last week trying to defend my actions and failing spectaculary. Pop and grandpa had tried to understand my motivation but how to explain to them when I barely understood. Erin was on the warpath joe and Danny were just disappointed. All I knew was my friend being in jail caused me actual physical pain, my heart ached and I couldn't make it stop.
"Why is it whenever I see you lately you seem to be having a internal struggle? Relax." Noble seemed almost normal. My favourite grin ghosted across his face. The one that said he was going to make a insane move. Usually it would promise a night of excitement and that always made me happy. But for some crazy reason I wasn't scared despite everything.
He threw a arm around my shoulder and gestured for his men to back off. We began to stroll through the old warehouse like old buddies,It almost seemed like old times if you ignored the armed guard and kidnapping portion of the evening. Being close to me always calmed Noble, I ŵas the man everyone called for when the mafia prince needed calming. But no one was here to save me, strangely it didn't matter things were back to the way they should be. Even if it was only for a few hours.
Moments of friendship flitted through his mind, meeting Noble in that bar, all the times his friend tried to help him improve his life, even being warned off Bianca had been a blessing in disguise. (she was insane) . But his musings were interrupted by finding himself pinned to the wall and a gun pointed at his skull.
"Why did you betray my trust? I gave you everything and you discarded me like garbage. We were familia", his tone may have been ice but there was a clear plea for answers in his eyes.
I didn't have the words to defend myself, I felt ashamed of my actions despite what the laws of morality stated. "I'm a cop, I was doing my duty." Even to my own ears it sounded false, like dolling out the same sad excuses for doing you're homework.
"Duty, responsibility please if that were true things would have gone very differently in court. What I want toown Know is why you perjured yourself in court. Allianating the entire Reagan dynasty isn't the smart move". He stared at me intently already deciding the outcome and just waiting for me to catch up.
"What do you want me to say? What difference does it make? Whatever my response you're not going to believe me anyway. Just finish things." If nothing else I would be brave at the end.
Noble had led me a fair distance from his men, well out of earshot. "I didn't bring you here to die Jamie."
My heart almost stopped " please I'm not nieave, I'm a cop who testified against you in open court. There's only one way this situation gets resolved." I couldn't let him give me false hope.
My favourite grin was on his face again, " let's examine your statement for a second." God he was being so childish! Jamie felt his anger rise. He was here to kill him why couldn't he take anything seriously? The craziness of the statement was not lost on the younger man.
"First of all you didn't testify against me in court, actually you killed the prosecutions case for me. Thank you by the way for that. But most importantly Jamie, I knew you were a cop ". I was stunned, before I could think how to respond Noble brought his mouth down on mine. The kiss was deep and passionateand I was rooted to the spot.
Ok to slash or not to slash? Opinions greatly appreciated. Next chapter Noble POV.
