*gena's POV*
"Gena, we came here to FIND John Levvin, not hide from him!" Mike yelled. "We have to protect Harry!" I cried. "Oh, so he's Harry now?" he demanded. "That is his name, Mike." "He's Styles to us bounty hunters. Like we're Lane and Lauren to everyone but each other." "He's not a bounty hunter. and I'll call him what I want." I snapped. Haz and I had been on three dates. I'd hadn't been in a relationship since John Levvin's third victim was murdered. His name was Niall Horan, and he'd been a great boyfriend to me. Like Harry, Mike and I saved Niall from another criminal we were hunting for. Niall had been sweet, and I'd fallen helplessly in love with him. we'd dated for three years when my parents were murdered. Niall was next. it was that day John Levvin became the reason for my existence. I lived to see him shot down. and it would be me who shot it. I hadn't told Harry about Niall, deciding it was a bad idea. I was afraid to fall for Harry while John was still free, but I refused to let him go. I could only protect him if he was here. with me. "Why are you so sensitive!?" I asked Mike. we'd fought a lot this week. "If it's about Niall then get over it! I can handle myself!" "It's not about Niall! It's about ME!" "What about you?" "I...." he trailed off. "Mike? What?" I demanded.

"Mike? what?" Gena asked. "I'M FUCKING IN LOVE WITH YOU GENA!!" I cried, my anger issues getting the best of me. Gena, not one to be phased by my outbursts-they happened quite often- just stared at me. "I love you, Gena. I'm the one who's always there. Harrys just a citizen." I said more quietly. "No!" she screamed. Gena had her issues too. "No what?" "No! You can't love me! You're my friend, my partner. I don't love you, so you can't love me." her words hurt, as I'm sure they were meant to. I flinched. "I don't want to be your friend." I said. but Gena didn't say anything, just walked out the door.
*harrys pov*
Gena came rushing into my bedroom, tears in her eyes. "Harry!" she cried, launching herself into my arms. "Gene, what's the matter love?" I asked, using her nickname. "Mike..." she whispered. "I heard shouting. What did he do?" I said, rubbing her back. "He said he loved me." she said. I tensed. He'd beaten me to it. I wasn't quite ready to tell her I loved her for fear of scaring her off. I was glad I hadnt, seeing how she was acting now that Mike had said it. "Did he now?" I asked. I wasn't surprised at all. I could see in Mikes eyes what I was sure he could see in mine when he looked at Gena. She looked up at me now. "You heard us? How much did you hear?" she asked. "Something about a Niall..?" I said. Her whole body went rigid. "Gene?" I asked, concerned. "Who's Niall?" "Niall Horan. He...um...about four years ago another criminal we were hunting threatened him. kinda like Levvin is doing to you. Mike and I saved him, and...i fell in love with him." she said. In love? it seemed wrong. She should only love me. "Shut up, Styles. she doesn't love you." I thought. "And?" I prodded. "Levvin killed him." she finished. pure hatred rang in her voice. "Oh, God. I'm sorry babe." I said, hugging her again. "I was worried you'd be jealous." she whispered into my chest. "Of someone who obviously made you incredibly happy? I can only be thankful and hope I can do the job that well." I murmured back. And the truth was, I really did. Damn, I was in love with a bounty hunter.
