Untitled Jeff x Annie WIP - Sneak Peek.
So I started writing this fic a zillion years ago, after season 3. I thought I had lost it after I changed phones but a few months back I found it in my email account, so I guess thank you Google. Anyway this is basically an Au because Annie and Jeff both are lawyers and work together. Pierce is alive and Troy and Britta are together. I don't know when I'm going to post the whole first chapter but this is just a glimpse. All mistakes are mine bc it's unbetad. (Am I writing a million things at once for different fandoms? Well yes I am!)
Enjoy

He poured two glasses of whiskey, smirking he gave it to her. They'd won a huge case for the firm, so they were celebrating. He sat next to her, as he gazed at her smiling with their eyes that way they only know how and drank in silence. He was staring at her not realizing it; she, on the other hand, was staring at space deep in her thoughts so she didn't realize he was staring at her or maybe she did but she was so used to it that she'd found a way to live with it, not that she minded. Jeff kept gazing at her, he couldn't believe that was Annie, his Annie. She grew up to be a great beautiful woman in and out. After her internship in the FBI, she realized that she wanted more that investigating left her with unresolved cases, she felt that she wasn't the one putting the bad guys to jail even though she helped. So after debating long with him, she had decided to become a lawyer. She started an internship in a law firm as soon as she could and soon Jeff was following her lead. Teaching just wasn't for him, even though he tried. Well, half-tried.
He really let her go and he couldn't be prouder of her. They went back to old habits fast after she came back from the internship and although there had been a kiss or two after that, there was always one of them that said it was a mistake and that was that, after a little bit of awkwardness things went back to normal: stolen glances and friendship. They loved working together and hanging out but at the end of the day so much time had passed that maybe there was no point in doing something that might ruin their friendship. They were so important to each other that they couldn't even think of losing one another and for what? A relationship that might have ended up hurting each other, no thanks. Of course all of this was never really spoken between them because that was what they did, they'd talk about everything but about them and the Annie of it all not so much.
- "Wanna grab some dinner?" He suddenly said, breaking the silence
- "Oh, I can't!" She frowned. "I'm sorry I didn't know you wanted to go out! I made plans already" - she said apologetic
- "With Mcdouche?" He said in a plain voice not trying to show how much he hated the guy
- "Yeah with him! Stop calling him like that!" She said as she swatted his arm.
-"What? Mcdouche? But if it goes so well with his face and his stupid hair"
Annie squinted her eyes at him between amused and angry. And suddenly a spark appeared in her eye as a realization came upon her
-"Wait! Have you been watching my Grey's Anatomy DVDs I left in your house?"
-"Whaat? No! I don't watch that crap. It's for girls and men that clearly are gay," he answers in a strangely high voice and big eyes which avoid her inquiring gaze"
-"Ok, fine, fine! - she said standing up, her hands up in mock surrender. As she headed for the door, she turned around and said: "By the way, Mcsteamy has better hair than you"
- "No, he doesn't!!! I have 10 times the hair and body than that cheating bastard." At that moment he closed his eyes, realizing he let her know he perfectly knew who Mcsteamy was. Damn him, damn her!
-"Night Jeff! Have fun at Seattle Grace" - she said as a snort came out trying to control her laughter.
- "I don't watch that crappy show!" He shouted back to her.
- "You doooo!" She shouted singing as she left.
-"I don't" he said almost whispering and pouting as he got ready to go home. His cell caught his attention while it vibrates on his desk:
Annie: you do! ;)
Damn her, he thought smiling.
