<span style="font-family: 'Book Antiqua'">Jessica browsed through the files on her desk. Frown lines appearing as she studied. Though she wasn't seeing anymore clients, another doctor passed along one of his cases to her. She'd been avoiding it for some time. Personally, she didn't want to take it on. It had been at least two weeks they'd been without therapy. <br/>
<br/>
That was a problem. Even in her eyes.<br/>
<br/>
"Drug use. Depression. Suicidal tendencies....fun fun," she murmured to herself. With a sigh, she closed the file and pinched the bridge of her nose. This wasn't going to be easy, but she wanted the challenge. Picking up the phone, Jessica dialed the nurse's station. It rang a few times before answered.<br/>
<br/>
"Mhmm Dr. Prescott speaking. Why did it take so long for someone to answer? No excuse. Anyway I'd like to get a meeting in with Stefania Cooper. Yes her. No, I will her new primary doctor. Mhmm...yes. I have the files. Make sure it's scheduled within the next few days. Thank you. Bye."<br/>
<br/>
The doctor finished her call and removed the jacket. Today could have been better. She thought of Trevor. Adam's remarks. She'd get to the bottom of it. Whether or not she wanted the answers, it was to be expected. Something wasn't adding up and she intended to find out soon enough.<br/>
<br/>

Jordan watched in interest as Jessica walked out her office, briefcase in hand, coat swung on her arm. He eyed her form sashaying down the hallway. How did he manage to fuck up with her?<br/>
<br/>
Grumbling he barely paid attention during his group therapy session. Too much on his mind. Jessica, like it or not, was the best that happened to him. He never thought he had a chance with her, that it until that company party. <br/>
<br/>
She, like the others had way too much to drink. It didn't take much after a few glasses on Pinot Noir to get her cozy up to him.<br/>
<br/>
Sure the parking lot wasn't the classiest play for a hook up, but it suited them fine. At least until after he came. Jessica wasn't at all pleases with the stain on her red dress.<br/>
<br/>
His favorite. Still, he noticed a slight change in her behavior once she took on Trevor as her patient. She couldn't 'fix' him. Her work distracted her from important things, like pleasing him, but it didn't matter. Jordan was going to get to the bottom of the problem. <br/>
