When James caught up with Jessie she was standing on the beach, down by the sea staring into the water. He walked across the beach until he was standing next to her.
“So what now?” Jessie asked after a couple minutes.
“I don’t know, Jess, all I know is that I’ve wanted to do that for years.”
“Really? Me too.”
Jessie grinned at him, he smiled back. “So you’re not mad at me then?”
She shook her head, “No for once you got something right.”
She laughed to show she was joking, he laughed with her. “But I don’t get why you run of like that.”
She stopped laughing and said, “I had to sort out what I was feeling and I didn’t want to go blurting out the way I felt if it was just one of those things for you.”
“You should know me better then that Jess, I’ll always be here for you as long as you want me to be.”
She nodded and said, “I guess we should head back to the house before they come out looking for us.”
James nodded and offered her his arm, she took it and the two headed back to the house. Both thinking how lucky they were to have each other and knowing they always would even if they hadn’t said those dumb words yet.
She sighed loudly, placed the statement back on her desk, before getting up to answer the door. She was surprised to find her boyfriend Quinn standing there holding a large pizza box and a flask of some drink. He grinned at her and said, “It was kinda obvious you weren’t coming home tonight so I thought I’d come to you. Besides I thought you might be hungry.”
Jenny couldn’t help but smile as she let the young green haired man into the office. He placed the pizza box on the table and dumped the flask next to it. Jenny sat back down and accepted a piece of pizza that he offered. She ate it hungrily as she hadn’t eaten all day.
“So what’s that ya been reading?”
“I shouldn’t really tell you.”
“Come on ya know ya can trust me.”
She sighed and said, “OK if you must know it’s the witness statement of Dr. Morgan.”
“She was involved with that case, I didn’t know that. Do ya think he’s gonna go after her?”
“Probably, it’s a good thing her islands deserted at the moment.”
Quinn hit himself on the forehead with the palm of his hand and swore loudly.
“What is it?”
“The island isn’t deserted, after I dropped the doctor off at Viridian City I took four kids from there and dropped them off at the island.”
“What those children could be in serious danger.”
She jumped out of her seat, Quinn jumped to his feet as well and said, “I’ll go and get my helicopter.”
Jenny shock her head and said, “No can do. If Bill is on the island and he hears the helicopter he’s sure to kill them. We’re going by boat, go get Nurse Joy and meet me at the docks.”
Quinn nodded rushed out of the station. Jenny headed to the armoury and grabbed a couple of guns as well as a handful of pokeballs containing Growlithes. They would come in handy if she had to fight Bill. She then hurried out of the station and to the docks.
