Roger reached one, Jim ran towards him and shouted "NO!" The shear force of Jim was enough to push Roger over. As they both fell to the fall, the gun went off, but nobody got hurt. Jack ran over to Roger and arrested him.
Jim got up off the floor and went over to June who was shaking like a leaf. "Are you alright?" he said
"Yes" she replied and then all of a sudden she began to cry and fell into his arms. She held him tightly. "You are safe now," Jim whispered
"Thank you Jim, you saved my life" June said crying
"There's no need to thank me. Come on lets go inside"
He took her to an interview room. "Sit down" he said closing the door and placing the in-use light on.
"I must get back to work. There's lots to do" June said
"No June, you are in no fit state to work. You are still in shock"
"But"
"But nothing, its my orders and anyway I need to talk to you"
"Yes" she said quietly
"June" he said "I thought I was going to lose you" Jim said sounding upset
"Oh Jim" June said with tears coming down her cheeks
" I love you June," he said, "I know I shouldn't, but I do"
"I love you too," she whispered. She stood up and hugged him. They gazed into each other's eyes lovingly and then Jim kissed June. She did not pull away but then she whispered, "We shouldn't be doing this Jim"
"I know but I can't help it" he said reaching down and kissed her passionately. June pulled away this time and said "I can't Jim, I want to but I can't" She walked to the door. "June" Jim said. She turned to face him and she had tears running down her face. "June, don't go, lets just talk" he said
"No I can't. The longer I stay here, the more I will want to be with you and that is wrong, I am your boss"
"I now that but I can't stop thinking about you"
"Please Jim. If you love me you will just forget what happened and we'll just be friends"
"Friends" Jim laughed, "We are friends but I want to be more than just friends" he said
"I know you do, but it's not possible, I'm sorry Jim. I better go, its busy out there," she said and then she opened the door and walked off towards the toilets. Jim was left heart broken, he knew she loved him but she could not be with him and this just made it worse.
June walked into the ladies, went into a cubicle, and began to cry. She could not stop thinking about Jim. When she was with him, she felt happy and loved. After a while, she came out of the cubicle and went to the mirror to dry her eyes. As she was doing this Robbie walked in. " Hiya Sarge, how are you" she asked
" I am fine thanks" she said in a shaking voice and then she said "No I'm not" as she began to cry again. Robbie put her arm around her "Perhaps you should go home, your probably still in shock" she said
"No" June said sharply because the last thing she wanted to do was to go home and be on her own.
"Well you need to take it easy then" Robbie said
"Look I'm fine" June said
"You are not fine because you are upset. Perhaps you should see a councillor"
"I don't need to see a councillor, its not the hostage situation that has upset me" June cried
"What is it then?"
"Its Jim" June said
"Jim Carver? What's he done to you, I thought you were friends"
"We are and that's the problem," June replied
"I don't understand" Robbie said
"I love him Robbie" June said quietly
"You what" she shouted "But Jim is seeing Megan and you are his boss"
"I know" June cried "But I can't help it. Every time I am near him I want to reach out and touch him and hug him"
"Oh Sarge" Robbie said
"I don't know what to do Robbie. I really do love Jim but I am his boss and starting a relationship with him could mean one of us is transferred and I couldn't stand that"
"How does Jim feel"?
" He told me he loved me" she replied
"Look June, I can't tell you what to do, but if it was me I would follow my heart, stuff the police regulations you can't help who you fall in love with" Robbie said and then she left, leaving June ponder over her feelings.
