Jim Moriarty x Reader 2

Chapter 21

You and Jim made it back to his building, searching the halls until you finally bumped into William. Your eyes widened, you looked over at jim, immediately seeing his gaze darken into a glare at seeing William.

"Sup Jim." William greeted coldly, standing beside candy- who should NOT be here. You knew William brought her just to piss Jim off- however it was also a stupid move, considering none of you knew that much about candy and to be honest she creeped you out a bit. She seemed EXTREMELY possessive- she was standing by William with a smile clueless to what was going on, as she clung happily to William's arm.

"William, you need to go, right now..." you warned, knowing full well jim could and would kill him right then and there. William pulled away from Jim, hands in his pockets, stepping up so he could be face to face with the shorter man.

".... I don't think I do. Do I, Jim?" William asked in a taunting voice, purposely provoking jim in apparent confidence that Jim would now murder him. You saw Jim's fists clench so you quickly pushed between the two, shoving William away and giving him what-for, so hopefully jim wouldn't feel the need to.

"William, stop it!! I don't know what's gotten into you, but stop dragging everyone into your dramas! You have a younger brother to take care of, yet you're here having a temper tantrum over god knows what. I know you're upset about your dad's death. But it wasn't James' fault, nor was it yours. Yes, James was wrong to try to use Alex to kill him, but William, you DID kill him. You both made mistakes, but Harvey had it coming for him. Go ahead and lash out, but don't put everyone's lives at stake because of it. And no offence Candace, but if anyone knew you were here William would have a huge target on his back, and we don't know if we can trust that you won't purposely put it there. This building is full of secrets and having you here is risking compromising all of them." You snapped, staying between William and Jim although frequently pushing William backwards as you talked; trying to distance the two from killing each other.

"And I swear to god, you better have kept an eye on Alex because so help me William if anything has happened to him-" Jim put a hand on your shoulder to cut you off, knowing that if you continued on that line of thought it would be risking William finding out why they think something bad has happened to Alex- because their dead mom told them it would. So, you took a deep breath, composing yourself, knowing you had at least helped alleviate Jim's anger by taking out your own.

"..... I hope you two have fun together." You mumble, before taking jim by the tie and pulling him off down the hallway. You were both silent for a moment, before you felt jim smiling from behind you.

"What?" You asked, glancing back at him, wondering what was going on in that psychotic little head of his.

"You should get angry more often sweetheart~ it's sexy~" he stated and you couldn't help but laugh slightly. Knowing jim would literally flirt with his worst enemy, it didn't fluster you too much.

"Hah. ... right. Now let's find the boys, William's the least of our problems right now...." you replied, as the two of you continued heading down the corridor.
