Office Affairs (Jaketord)

Chapter 4

[Author's note: Got a whole script ready]

Tord's POV:
It had been weeks, we have been hanging out twice a week, going to places, sometimes an interesting case was our little adventure. We've grown closer together, i think we can be considered good friends already.

I needed to focus, i had to do research on my computer, but i could barely pay attention to my work as i was thinking of the next place we would go.

Someone knocked on my door, "Come in.", i said.

It was Jake, he looked like he felt a little bad, "I'm afraid we can't hang out this weekend", he told me, i felt a little upset about it, "That's fine, we have next week.", i replied.

"I'm sorry, Tord, but something unexpected has occured, and i've got more important plans.", he told me, i looked at him and said "Its alright, Jake, i understand.", then he left and closed the door. I went back to trying to do my research on my computer. But obviously, now i was distracted with thinking of why Jake couldn't hang out, what could be so important to cancel our friendly plans?

'It doesn't matter right now.', i thought, and completely blocked those thoughts.

Jake's POV: I felt kind of bad about canceling our plan with Tord, but i can't hang out with him while i myself am in danger. I left workplace, i needed to see if wether i am followed or not.

I got a strange anonymus letter 3 days ago, it said something disturbing in it: 'Be careful of being nosey, or you may die.', i assumed it was a person from the latest case i was working on. Every step felt unsafe, and i was risking everyone else's safety everytime they were near me, i went around a corner, and my conclusion was that someone was in fact watching me.

I've been seeing the same man in a hoodie following me since yesterday, it's making me feel uneasy, but i have to be brave and get him caught.

I go back to work, since i can't skip work just because of something like that, and also because i have my gun there.

I went into my office, and sat in my chair, pulling a drawer out, and taking the gun from it. I was ready to protect myself.

Tord's POV:
Days have passed since Jake canceled our plans and started acting more strange, he seemed to be careful everywhere, and i think i saw him with a gun, i just hope he won't do anything dumb.

I felt the need to check on him, so i went to his office, and as dumb as i am, i didn't knock, and opened the door and went inside.

"Hey Jake-"

I was i terrupted by the sight of him pointing his gun at me, i was shocked, what was wrong with him?

Jake saw that it was me and put the gun down, i calmed down and went closer. "What the hell, Jake?", i said, "Sorry. I thought you were a murderer.", he said with a straight, yet fearful face.

"What has been going on with you lately??", "Nothing", he says, i obviously don't believe him.

"Tell me right now.", i go to his desk. He sighs, "Someone has been threatening me lately, and i think everyone else is in danger if they're near me.", i was confused, and worried for him.

"Couldn't you include me in the situation??", i asked, being a little angry.

"No."

I facepalm, and say "You need to tell me the details.", so he did. I felt mixed about it, i was worried about him, i felt a little scared that i am also in danger, but i aslo were still confused, as to who it could be and why they would do that to him.

We agreed on working on this together from then on.
