51So if I'm correct in thinking this - I've never written a Primeval story before, sure I've read them! But this is new! From the very beginning Abby/Connor intrigued me, but I could never write for them! But now, Jess/Becker - AMAZING! Gosh I love them! The thing is, my names Jess, I have the same hair, I'm 19, we're the same height, I love shoes, and I have a similar job, without the dinosaurs and I love Becker! I swear they were stalking me... (Also another strange fact, my three closest friends are called Abby, Connor and Matt! How odd is that?) Anyhoo... This isn't a oneshot, so there will eventually be more! I only own the plot! :)
She tried not to, honestly she did... But Becker was hot!
Relationships with co-workers were off limits, at least that's what she kept trying to tell herself. So when she asked Matt for chocolate, she hardly spared a thought that maybe it would be Becker that would be the one listening to her.
She also didn't expect there to be another bar of chocolate waiting for her a week later, including the daisies lying beside it. Looking around to see if she could figure out who left it for her, she spotted Connor and Abby walking in, whispering to each other. She could check them off; they had come in with her, seeing as they still lived at hers. She could definitely rule Lester out! Jess watched as Matt walked past, he completely ignored the fact that anyone was around...
It wasn't until she caught a sudden movement from the corner of her eye that she realised someone was watching her, Becker quickly turned away from her gaze and very unlike him, tripped over a dip in the railing landing smack on the floor.
Still clutching her bar of chocolate, she rushed over to him to double check he hadn't damaged himself too badly.
"Oh my God, are you alright?" She knelt down to his level, and reached out a hand to help him sit up; a blush reached her cheeks as he took it.
"I'm OK, Jessica, I'm fine..." Becker muttered, feeling slightly embarrassed, noticing the bar in her other hand he said, "Are you not gonna eat the chocolate, I promise I didn't poison it, and there's no orange!"
"It was you?" For some reason she found this surprising, even though she'd figured he was most likely.
"Who else?"He smirked, and quickly glanced away to bring himself back to earth. Something about Jessica Parker distracted the hell out of him…
"Well, thank you, how did you know I loved daisies?"
"I read your file…" He said mysteriously, before laughing at her confused face, "No, I just figured you were more of a daisy or sunflower girl than a rose."
"Oh, well you were correct, roses have too many layers, they look complicated, all those different colours meaning different things…" She broke off at the look on his face, "I'm rambling about roses, aren't I?" He nodded, laughing slightly, "Sorry, I do that."
"Don't worry, I like it," Becker brushed the back of her hand with his thumb, and she shivered slightly.
"Oh, good, yea…" She was now struggling to look away from him. She could see the distance between them was becoming less and less.
A cough from behind them had them both startled, they turned around looking uncomfortable, Jess giggled lightly, before going to stand up, before she realized she was still clinging to Becker, her hand wrapped tightly in his.
They both looked at their hands, before dropping them, Jess straightened up and marched herself to her desk, ignoring the amused stares from Abby and Connor and the slightly peeved one of Lester. And Matt, well he still didn't care or notice!
Becker picked himself up, kept his head down and left the room.
"Ten pounds says they get together by Easter!" Connor said to Abby.
"OI! I heard that!" Both voices of Jess and Becker shouted. Abby simply whacked him over the head.
"They'll be quicker than you two were at any rate…" Lester muttered walking away.
Abby and Connor's jaws dropped and Jess fell into a fit of laughter.
Should I carry on? Reviews please! :)
