Jackson's POV
Somehow I couldn't stop thinking of this morning but I need to stop because I need to stay focused. I was meeting with Connie today because I think Indiana needs a break. I want to take her out of the country. No matter what Indie says I would never take a dusty office job over being around her. Life is anything but dull when it comes to her. I finally made it into Connie's office, she was sitting at her desk that had files covering it. I somehow managed to make out the camouflage cup that blended into the files. I noticed she had the phone on her ear and a pen near her lips. Like she was in deep thought about who was on the other side of that phone. She finally perked up and noticed me standing there.
She smiled and gestured for me to have a seat. "Yeah, well I need to think it over and get back to you." She said then she hung up the phone.
"Agent Jones," she said welcoming me in.
"Connie, just call me Jackson." I smiled as I said it.
"Yes, Yes" as she cleared away some files. "So, Jackson, what is it for this meeting?" She questioned.
I looked at her and took a deep breath. "It's Indiana," I said quickly.
She froze and looked dead at me. "Is there something wrong with her?" She asked, I don't maybe concerned?
I looked down and shook my head no. "No, no but I would like to take her out of the country for her break. Just a short amount of time. She needs a break." I said.
She nodded and seemed to be taking everything in. "Now I don't think that's very wise." She said shortly.
I stood up. "Ma'am either I take her and protect her or she goes on her own. She is no longer a child. I would rather protect her." I said angrily.
She stood up too, trying to show her ground. "Fine I think it's an idea I will have to sit on but I know she's no longer a child. I just don't want to lose an asset as valuable as Indiana." She said as she only saw Indiana was a weapon, not a human.
I wanted to roll my eyes so bad at that moment. I know that Indiana is important, but she doesn't exist in this country or in any other. "So I have your approval?" I took a deep breath and questioned one last time.
She gave me that stern look that I am sure would make others feel weak and fearful but to me it just made me smile on the inside. "Fine but I want to know if anything goes wrong and the minute you come back," she said again as if I am taking some high-tech weapon out.
I nodded and reached out for her hand and shook it. "Thank you, Ma'am!" I said warmly, not angrily as I wanted to.
Somehow walking out of her office, out of that building; I felt like I was on cloud nine. I knew while Indie was at school, I needed to work on getting things prepped. I will do that the minute I get home.
