Hear No Evil - Chapter 24

Lucy watched them from the couch as they left. She was sure that Sue knew she had lied about meeting her Grandmother. She wasn’t due to meet up with her Grams until the next weekend. As well as that, Lucy knew that the only reason Sue had asked her to come along was because she was nervous about how quickly things were progressing with Jack.

She had become really close to Sue in the short time that they had know each other and despite her protests to the contrary, she knew how strong her feelings were for Jack. From day one she had seen the mutual attraction between them. She had hoped that something would happen when they’d gone to Bobby’s birthday party, but Rhonda had messed that up, which is partly why Sue had been so guarded about her feelings for him.

She had known Jack for many years and had been there when Allie had been on the scene. They had a history and had known each other many years. Their mothers were best friends and it was his mother who was to blame for Allie showing up when Jack had suffered his heart attack. When she had watched the interaction between the three of them in the bullpen after Jack had been released from hospital, he had clearly favoured Sue and looked awkward that Allie was there.

Lucy knew that Jack had cancelled a date with Allie to accompany Sue to her friend’s wedding. Sue had wound up doing with Paul but that fact that he had cancelled hid plans will Allie revealed more than he intended. If was only later that Lucy had accidentally found out that Jack had told Allie that he had needed to work on a big case. When Allie had found out the real reason, she hadn’t been impressed.

Now that Allie was completely out of the picture and they have finally confessed how they felt, she only hoped that now they were finally moving forward. Smiling, she glanced down at Levi who was lying by her feet.

“Well Levi, it’s up to them now.”
