Leo

I threw my cloths on the bathroom floor and jumped into the shower to wash off the smell of dried blood and gun powder.

I allowed the water to run through my hair and down my back slowly. Cleaning away the blood from my hands and body.

Today, me and this girl named Venessa had to be partners. I absolutely hate her.

She has always tried to come on to me. She's been obsessed with me since the day we meet.

Of course, Don wants me and Jessie to fake date but them partners me with another woman that is in love with me.

She also absolutely sucks at her job. She can barely hold a gun yet Don puts her with me.

I swear sometimes Don gets on my nerves.

I turn off the tap after washing my hair and body and I exit the shower.

I throw on clean sweats and Calvin cline boxers. I sigh as I lay down on my bed and press 'facetime' on Jessies contact.

When the phone is finally answered I can immediately tell Jessie is wasted.

"Heyyyyyy." She stumbles.

Panic immediately rushed through me.

"Jess, are you drunk?"

"I'm moderately functional." She giggled.

"Jess, where are you?" I sit up and my brows furrow.

"Dancinggg." She giggles.

"With who?" my concern grows.

"Tessie." She gives Tessa a odd pet name and shows a equally drunk Tessa on the camera.

"I'm calling Harland to come get you." I warn her and hang up before calling Harland.

He answers almost immediately.

"What's up?" He asks calmly.

Thank god he's sober.

"Harland, I need you to go get Jessie. Her and Tessa are drunk and dancing with men lurking around them."

"What? Where are they?" He now sounded just as concerned as me.

"I'm pretty sure they are down in Don's bar." I told him and I could hear him get up from where ever he was and leave where ever he was.

Some time goes on of silence as I allow Harland to go get the two girls.

"Found em." He finally spoke as I heard music blasting through the phones speakers.

"Good."

I hear him over the phone as he tries to save the two of them.

"Come on. Let's go you guys are wasted." I hear faintly.

"Where's Leoooooo." I hear Jessie's voice complain in a baby voice.

"He's on a trip remember? Now let's go." Harland replied.

"But I want him! I want him to take me upstairs!" She complained some more and I couldn't help but smile at her desire for me.

"He will be here soon." I was ok with him lying to her just this time since she wouldn't remember it anyway.

"Ok!" I heard them all go upstairs.

More time pasted.

"Ok they are both ok. Jessie is in your room. I had Marie come help her out."

Relief hit me like a bus as Harland confirmed that Jessie was safe and ok.

"Thanks Har." I spoke.

"No problem, now I have to deal with my woman." He chuckled as I heard faint noises in the background most likely being Tessa as she stumbles around.

"Good luck." I hung up soon after and called Jess.

Marie answered the phone and I asked her where Jessie was.

Marie didn't say anything but only replied with a smile as she flipped the camera around to reveal Jessie sleeping in my sweats and tee shirt.

"Sound asleep." Marie said as she placed the phone on Jessie's nightstand to face Jessie.

"Thanks Marie." I hated thanking people but if it meant Jessie was safe I was ok with it.

"Of course sir, I'll be on my way now." I heard footsteps and then the door closing indicating that she had left.

I didn't want to wake Jessie even though me and Marie were just talking with normal voices.

But I still felt the need to whisper.

"Hey cupcake." I whispered.

I looked at her for another moment before I spoke again.

"I had a shitty day. My new assignment partner sucks." I complained.

I proceeded to tell her everything.

Jessie

I don't think he knows I'm awake.
