Iāll Shoot! ~ {Sophia&Jackie}

Sophia hesitated for a second as he spoke. She tried her best to not look over to the kitchen, knowing that he could be saying anything just to distract her, but curiosity got the better of her so with her heart in her throat, she looked over at the counter quickly, spotting the waffle iron in a split second before looking over at him again, keeping her stance as strong as possible.Ā āDoes anyone really know the thread count on sheets?ā she asked, completely taken aback by the comment.. however the fact that he had actually said Cateās name ruled out the option of him being some random just breaking into her apartment.. maybe he was telling the truth after all.Ā āSo let me get this straight.. you donāt have the key on you so you climbed through the window.. but Cate isnāt actually here otherwise she could have just let you in⦠so why areĀ you here?āĀ
The womanās careless response to thread count on sheets was enough for Jackie to determine that she had to be a friend of Cateās. He scoffed, hoping the strangerās vision was good enough to see the appalled look on his face. By now, indignation had all but replaced fear at the confirmation that Cate had told exactly no one about their relationship.Ā
āWhy wouldnāt I be? All my stuff is here,ā Jackie said, reaching out to flick the light switch when he finally inched close enough. He blinked rapidly to allow his eyes to adjust (which didnāt take long, considering only about half was illuminated). When he realized he was being held at gunpoint by a banana, he was exponentially more delighted than chagrined.Ā āThatās bloody brilliant,ā Jackie chortled, just short of applauding her.Ā
