so here i go
Bid farewell to yesterday
He was looking at her and saw the changes in her body language and her facial expressions. Subtle things that escaped the naked eye. Which was why when her response came, he knew she was lying. Not only that, he knew she was doing it to get back at him.
He took a deep breath and let it out slowly before tracing his fingers along his jaw. "Charlotte. You know I'm not allowed to tell you anything. Right now, you know just as much as I do. And if I divulge any information without my superior or your brother's permission, I could likely lose my job."
Oh sweet ignition be my fuse

Waiting Game
I wish I was in love
She didn't want to hear his explanation. She knew his reasoning, it was the only thing that kept him there. All he ever talked about was how she was jeopardizing his job. And she knew that it was a large reason why he never gave her a chance to be anything more than just his burden to look after.
Charlotte wrapped her arms around her legs and rested her chin on her knees. "You always say that. Like I'm out to get you fired or something. I just want to know why someone is trying to hurt me. My brother won't let me know anything. Which means your superior won't let me know anything." Tears started filling her eyes again and she groaned as she wiped at them furiously. "I just think that after being attacked, I'd be cut a little slack by somebody. But you're right, you'll lose your job if you do anything for me because I'm not the one signing your paycheck."
The terrible part was that she couldn't rely on anyone for anything anymore. She sniffled and glanced at him, "Well you did what's in your job description. I'm home, in my room and I'm not too roughed up. You can go now."
But I don't wanna cause any pain

"That's not what I meant, Charlotte." He said, trying to maintain his cool. She didn't understand the odds against him. Their relationship had to be professional. They had to have boundaries because if they didn't, there would be consequences. It wasn't just the job. It would be abuse of power, breach of contract, the very huge possibility of not being hirable anymore.
And knowing what little he knew of Will, the possibility that he could be found in a ditch somewhere grew at an alarming rate. Not to mention disappointing his Sergeant Major. There was way too much at stake.
"I'm sorry, Charlotte." He said softly before leaving the room.
