15 minutes had passed and Tess was already exhausted so she went into the staffroom to have a cup of tea and that's when she saw fletch, he had just poured boiling water over himself and was holding his wrist under the cold tap, Tess had witnessed all this and at least now fletch couldn't say that he was ok.
"Fletch what is wrong, seriously" said Tess "you look exhausted"
"In fine" said fletch
"No you're not" said Tess
"Honestly, in fine" said fletch
"fletch you are run down, sooner or later this is going to affect your work and you will make a serious mistake" said Tess "and we both know about making them"
"Tess I'm fine" said fletch once more
"Right that's ok" said Tess "but I know that there is something that you are not telling me and I will find out sooner rather than later"
Fletch laughed for some reason at Tess reaction and Tess smiled walking out of the staffroom and into Zoe, Zoe stopped and looked at fletch laughing and Tess smiling
"What's going on here" said Zoe raising her eyebrows
"Not what you're thinking anyway" said Tess still smiling
"You do seem very close" said Zoe stopping at reception
"Zoe, just leave it, please" said Tess calmly walking off
Tess passed Charlie who looked at Zoe, Charlie had heard most of Tess and Zoe's conversation and was wondering what was going on.
"Messy break up?" said Charlie smiling at the fact that there was a possibility that Tess had met someone
"You could say that" said Zoe walking off to her office
Charlie smiled and walked off to the office that he shared with Tess, when it came to relationships Charlie would always question the people on the details like how long they had been together, where they had met and so on but Charlie had never expected Tess to meet someone as he didn't even know that Tess was dating, but he pretty much guessed it from what zoe had said to him and as he thought about it more, things started to fit into place about the way Tess was acting around people and of course there were the secret conversations with zoe about god knows what.
Tess noticed Charlie come in with a smile on his face; it was as if he was nearly laughing
"What happened" said Tess
Charlie didn't answer Tess and just looked at the computer screen, Tess didn't think anything of it but that was until he started questioning her after 10 minutes of doing paperwork.
"I never knew that you were dating" said Charlie casually not looking at Tess
Tess shot around and looked at Charlie who was acting as if this was a natural thing to say but it was obvious to Tess that Charlie didn't know about fletch and her as Tess knew that the day Charlie would find out he would hit the roof.
Thanks for the reviews please keep them comingJ
