Chapter 19

"You're the prosecutor for my client, I can't be messing around with you," I said as I looked into his beautiful green eyes. "Seth, we had fun, a lot of fun but it can't happen again." Never again. He sighs and shakes his head. "Okay, fine. By the way, you I'll be wanting my slippers back." He looked angry and annoyed. "I'll get your slippers back." I looked up at him, "Don't be angry at me just try and see things from my perspective." "I'm not angry at you and I understand what you're saying but I think we would be great together." Did he really think that? "I think so too but we can never be together." It was the truth. Prosecutors don't date Defenders. "I don't want a relationship. I'm not ready for a relationship." Relationships mean committing yourself to someone, subjecting yourself to get hurt down the line. "We can be friends, we have fun together."
