ok so chapter 37 is almost done. i’m not making any promises about when it’ll be out bc i’ve been so busy recently but i’m hoping it won’t be much longer. here’s another little preview in the meantime <3
"J, can you please just stop and think about this? He has a gun."
He doesn't so much as spare a glance back at me as he storms down the hall, Barry's drug money in hand. "I'm not scared of this guy."
"Okay, well, maybe I am!" I cry out at his back, and he finally pauses in the kitchen with a heavy sigh.
JJ turns to face me, and he wasn't lying. There's not even a hint of fear in his eyes, just an unwavering wrath that swallows up the worry in mine. He reaches out to stroke my cheek with a touch far gentler than his expression, and whispers, "Don't be."
