“I don’t know, yet, how we can keep this thing going. I don’t know who I’m going to be partnered with or where we’ll be assigned. I don’t know what they’re going to want or need. But I do know that, if you’ll have me, we can make it work. Because I love you.”
Avery suddenly scowled. “This is such crap.”
It was Jameson’s turn to stare open-mouthed. It was hard to breathe. He’d just confessed his feelings, and Avery had thrown them back in his face. He never expected that.
“You and I work just fine. Why are they even trying to find you a new partner?”
Jameson sagged as acute relief flooded him when he realized what Avery was talking about. As gently as he could, he said, “Avery, honey, you don’t ghostwalk.”
Avery opened his mouth and then shut it again. “I have. For you.”
