“if you’re trying to hurt me, jess, i do believe you should try a bit harder.” cussing at him wouldn’t get either of them anywhere. maybe, at one point it would have, but for now? all it would do would cause the wheels to turn and become an endless cycle. she yells at him, he yells at her, and both would most likely become exhausted.
so, he decided to take a step forward, and grab her throat – not harshly, but just enough to make the point that he wasn’t going to back down at the moment. he would eventually, but for now? no, not a chance. “you might get yourself hurt otherwise.”
