Chapter 128: JEALOUSY

"Okay, let's take a break before we head out to see Harlan," Jess said.

"Not until after we see the captain," Gerard said. "He wants an update, and just to give you a heads up, he saw you grab my hand the other day." Gerard rolled his eyes, "He threatened a suspension if we were back as a couple. I told him you were a touchy-feely type person, and I was certain you meant nothing by it."

"What?" her eyes blinked. "Reamer is an ass!"

"I don't know, Jess. All I know is that I'm getting tired of him asking me."

"Good! Then tell him to ask me. I'll set him straight."

"You know, I was thinking, maybe this partnership was a bad idea. Maybe you want this partnership dissolved. If you do, now would be the time to say it. If not, then I'd suggest we act like things are peachy keen or he's going to separate us and give us different partners."
