"Why does this look like a birthday get-together instead of a wedding" Jasper whispered immediately as he walked into belle's family's house.
"Because some people aren't as rich as you are" she replied.
"Please play it cool" Emma whispered to the both of them.
"I see you're here, after bailing out on your sister's wedding eve," An older wam said as she walked up to them, and Belle moved forward immediately to meet her.
"Now you come in like a guest all glammed up?!"
"Good Afternoon Mom" she replied instead.
"And what's good about this afternoon " her Mom snapped immediately.
"Mom please can we not do this now, I was unavoidably absent " she replied.
"Good Afternoon Ma'am," Jasper finally said walking up to the both of them.
"Afternoon " her mom replied as she turned to look at Jasper.
"I'm Jasper Mills, Bella's Fiancé " he added and her mom's eyes suddenly went wide, she immediately turned to face her belle.
"I had to go meet him at the airport yesterday, we ran into a delay I had to stay the night" she lied smoothly like Emma had told her to.
"And this is his sister Emma" she added turning to Emma and she walked up to them.
"Please, please come in and have your seat," Her Mom said excitedly as she paved way for them and they walked in.
She led Emma and Jasper to where they would seat and left with Belle immediately after.
"It's Belle I told you this before already," Emma said as they sat.
"Pretty much what I said" Jasper replied.
...
"I'll be leaving for Sioux falls with him on Tuesday," Belle said to her mom immediately after they got to a corner.
"Tuesday?! , Why?!" Her mom exclaimed.
"His work is based there and I feel like I need this time to get away" she replied.
"My dear, I'm or all I said to you, it was all for what mom said.
"Hmm yes all your children getting married was a measure of how great a mother you are, I understand," she said with a small pained smile.
Belle looked up and saw Emma staring at them, she didn't want to appear weaker than she already is.
"It's fine I'll just go talk to dad, he was the only one that supported me anyway" she added and walked away.
Evening...
5:30 pm..."We should leave now, the ceremony has ended," Belle said as she walked up to Emma and Jasper with a small packed bag in her hand.
"Have you told your family about you leaving?!" Emma asked
"I have, they're cool with it"
"Alright then let's go," Emma said.
"Ahh, thank Goodness " Jasper exhaled as he stood up immediately and walked outside
"Ignore him," Emma said and Belle added as they walked out.
Next week...
Monday Morning...:00 am...
"Jasper did you not hear the announcement?!" Emma asked as she moved her chair backward and towards his cubicle " He replied reluctantly.
She immediately tucked her long wavy blonde hair getting in her face behind her ear.
"Then what are you still doing here?!, Officer Abani just called for you !"
"You know how strict he can be !" She said,
He slowly turned to his laptop and continued typing away.
"Ever since officer Abani was transferred to our unit you've been behaving as just gotten a new job somewhere else!" She said,
"Will you get your ass up and go hear what he has to say!"
"Whatever!" He mumbled to himself and hissed as he stood up reluctantly, slowly tucking in and arranging his shirt and tie
"Good day sir " he greeted with a salute as he walked into his office.
"Good morning Jasper, have your seat please," he replied, gesturing to the chair in front of him.
"Thank you" Jasper murmured and took his seat.
"So I see you've found a wife that is ready to travel with you !" Officer Abani started.
"Good!"
"I'm just going to brief you on the Sioux Falls Case now "
"For some months now there have been cases of a particular syndicate terrorizing the city!"
"It's been a hard nut to crack for them so they're asking for help!" He said.
" I've seen you do your thing and I'm well aware of what you can do!"
"So you're going to go to Sioux falls and bring that silly assassin to book!"
"Sir, yes Sir " he replied.
"Perfect!"
"Here's the file on the case !" Officer Abani said to him and handed over a flash drive.
"Everything you need for the case is in there !"
"And anything you're working on right now I'll have another detective take over"
"Get your bags together, you leave for Sioux falls tomorrow " he concluded and laced flight tickets for him and Belle on the table
"Remember, no falling in love!" Officer Abani added immediately.
"Yes sir"
"Good !, You can get going now " he dismissed and Jasper stood up and bowed respectfully before finally walking out.
****
"The hell!" Jasper cussed as he walked back into his small cubicle, took off his cap, and slammed it on the table.
The other detective sharing this room with him wasn't in and the few people in were paying no attention at all to him.
"Get your bags together, you leave for Sioux falls tomorrow!" He mimicked angrily as he stared at the flight tickets he had angrily dropped on his table.
It was even an assassin case, he couldn't get over the fact that he was forced to do this against his and even have a wife against his wish.
"You're back!" Emma said as she walked inside and to Jasper.
He slowly picked up the flight tickets and handed them over to her, she took them from him and carefully looked at them.
"We're leaving tom tomorrow said.
She slowly swallowed hard as she dropped the tickets on the table, she had been hoping that this was a dream and it turned out to be not real.
But holding Belle's and Jasper's flight tickets in her hand made it as real as ever.
"So I'm guessing he has told you the nature of the case how long will you be gone for ?!"
"Honestly I have no idea as long as it takes " he replied and she nodded.
"I can't believe my modified house help is leaving me!" She joked, trying desperately to cover how bad she felt that he was leaving for another city and with a lady that wasn't her or no one knows how long.
"Who's gonna make me breakfast and coffee every morning? " she added and they both laughed.
"That's true," he said with a small smile,
"I don't think we've ever been apart for that long!" He said.
"Are you sure you can survive on your own without me ?!" He asked teasingly.
"I should be asking you that!" She retorted.
"But seriously, I'll miss you," he said and she smiled.
"Make sure to call me every day?!" She said,
"Sure thing!"
"Don't be so sad, we still have the whole of today to hang out" he said playfully and she scoffed, walking back to her cubicle which was just opposite his.
"You wish!"
"I still have work" she added and he just smiled as he shook his head and began to clear his table.

"Of course, I will" he replied "I don't know if I'll be able to stay in that house alone," she said as she looked up at him, and he smiled."Don't worry, I'll always be in touch " he replied and she nodded.Belle scoffed where she was standing, actually irritated by what the both of them were doing."Why didn't he just marry her instead" she scoffed mimicking Emma's facial expression in a very funny way.After some minutes of repeated saying I'll miss you, they finally disengaged."Let's go," Jasper said to Belle, as he took his bag and pulled it along into the airport.Belle nodded respectfully before she turned around and f

"First things first, " he whispered immediately he walked in and pulled out his iPad, and placed a call across to Emma.He slipped the iPad into the keyboard jacket and gently placed it on the dressing table as he began to put his thing away waiting for Emma to answer the call."I was starting to think you already forgot about me " She voiced immediately she picked up the call and he turned to face the phone immediately."Aww, it's nice to see your face after almost twenty-four hours " he cooed as he moved closer to the camera."Oh, My God !" She suddenly exclaimed."What is it ?!""Move away from my view please " she snapped "Is this your room?" she whispered and he busted out laughing."It is, " he replied and picked up the iPad to show her around."The main house is even bigger " he added as he walked back to the dressing table and placed the iPad like it was before."Wow that's so nice, this house is big enough that you and Belle don't have to run into each other," she said and h

****Jasper slowly walked down the stairs and into the living room.This house was too big and as awkward as it sounds it's actually a big problem for him.Not that he didn't like the house or interior and all but It was just too big for only one person or perhaps two.It made him feel kind of overwhelmed and bored , so he slowly walked to the dinning area just opposite the kitchen entrance .Belle had already set his food on the table , he looked around but she wasn't anywhere in sight, she must have gone up to her room since he didn't come down immediately.He pulled a chair out and took his seat , took out a ceramic bowl and dished out just enough spaghetti for himself and some meat balls and began to eat.He stared at the chair opposite him hoping Emma would just appear to be seated there and laugh at him like she always did. He couldn't remember the last time he ate alone , just one week ago if someone told him he'd be at a table eating alone he would have been sure it won't hap

Belle placed a small knock on Jasper's door before gently opening it , she popped her head in through the small opening."Dinner is served " she called out to him even if she couldn't see him."Okay" he replied in a very lifeless voice but she still managed to hear him, she sighed deeply , closed the door and walked back downstairs.They had only spent a day here together and she could already tell her stay with him was going to be a very boring one .When Emma told her that he was a detective , she pictured a really curious person, someone who would talk to her constantly but she ended up with someone who would rather keep everything to himself and figure it out on his own.She should have known though .She overheard him say he found a trail on the assassin and he was waiting patiently for tonight , she smiled as she took the stairs,As much as she believes he's capable she knew it wasn't going to be very easy , and he should know that too.Her smile widened and later t

Later at night ...."I'm sorry officer Abani had to speak to you like that" Emma said to Jasper , he just sighed and rubbed his face, they've been on a video call for about twenty minutes now and Jasper had angrily ranted to her about the call he got from officer Abani today.He had waited patiently for Emma to be available to talk to , to pour out all of his frustrations , probably accounts for his peevish behavior to Belle earlier, he was still bottling up his anger ."You shouldn't let him get to you " she added and he gave her a small nod."I won't, " he whispered.He sighed as he minimized the video call he was having to just a small portion of his screen and opened the file he was working on earlier ."What are you doing?!" Emma asked."Nothing much, just still searching for hidden clues on this case" he replied."I'm tired of listening to officer Abani's annoying yelling voice, " he added."Jasper!!" Emma called and bursted out in laughter."He called you only once Jasper!What'

He snapped, surprisingly irritated by her very beautiful smile."Good Morning" she greeted that smile still plastered on her face , regardless of whatever emotion he was feeling towards her right now."I told you ... ""Some people are here to see you!" She interrupted immediately , he sighed and rolled his eyes."Then you should have said that instead of standing at my door and smiling creepily!" He retorted."Okay fine! I'll be down soon" he said and slammed the door in her face , this time didn't care if he passed off as rude or not , she was becoming really unbearable and annoying.Immediately he was done freshening up , he put on a pair of shorts on a plain t-shirt, put on his slippers and walk

He muttered .Immediately he got into the study he took his seat , about to get started today again, but he wasn't in his right state of mind at all."I'll just take a walk" he whispered and walked out of the study.Later in the evening .....9:00 pm .....She parked at quite a distance of her target's house , she alread

She asked turning to Nathan."I did" he replied as he slowly caressed his beard leaning in on the table."She did this!" Jasper repeated."There isn't any sign of a break-in, so how exactly did she come in??" Nathan said."After Stella died, she told me that the more people I interrogate, the more people she kills," He said."I think her eyes are on my every move" Jasper added."And she would stop at nothing to frustrate my efforts," he said."She should just have taken it away on the night she shredded those papers""But she left it there for me to see, and then the videos she posted again, I'm sure she's on to something huge" he added and Nathan nodded slowly."Lucy," he called and she looked up at them as she slowly took her seat."I don't even have any idea what to say " she replied."Just the last time we came

Next day .....Monday Morning...7:00 am ..."Arggghh" Jasper groaned in pain as he sat up on his bed.His head was banging out of its place and he could barely even see clearly, he raised his hands to his forehead as he rubbed it slowly trying to massage it."God!" He murmured, he had been so caught up in his emotions yesterday that he drank more than he could control, it took. the grace of God that he didn't run into an accident on his way back yesterday.He tried to stand up and walk to the bathroom, at least to wash his face if that would even help, but he was in so much pain he couldn't even move."Good Morning" Belle chirped as she walked into his room with a tray in her hands.He looked up at her as she walked in and towards his bed."Hey, how are you feeling?!"

"After two years of being with you, you suddenly realize I'm clingy and desperate?!" "Yes, you're too needy I can't deal with it!"
