Ben shook his head slowly, "No ma'am, I'm just tired, may I get some rest?"

I rolled my eyes, "You know, if you were in the hands of only Fraser right now, he wouldn't have just broken your nose.

I snapped my head to look at him, and he became quiet.

Shaking my head with annoyance, I banged the door shut behind me after leaving the cell.
