You tried your hardest not to look intimidated, but the suspect you and Elliot were trying to bring in was really big. He easily towered over you, and if it came to a fight, he could probably just squish you without any real effort. "Sir, you'll have to come in for questioning..."
"I didn't do anything! I know my rights!" He snapped, taking a threatening step forward.
Elliot instantly stepped in between the two of you. "You better watch it, pal." He warned lowly. "I'd hate to have to shoot ya for assaulting a cop. We'd be out of suspects."
You knew what your partner was doing; taking the heat off of you and onto him. Probably trying to ensure you would be okay. You hated when he did stuff like that, but this time, you couldn't help but feel a little relieved Elliot was here.
