and they like to get payback, as Dixon learnt, he is rude to them, and now has little ‘accidents’ around the office.
I walked into mine and Dixon’s office pushing the glass door and held it open for the boys, I sat down at my desk which was on the right side of the room, me and Dixon split the office, there is a line drawn down the middle. I plonked my feet up on my desk and I leaned back and clicked my fingers a coffee was in my hand identical to the last one, but then I clicked my fingers again and there was another on the table. Dixon laughed as he picked it up and sat on my desk, I restrained myself from kicking him off with my foot. I sipped at the coffee, it wasn’t ever as nice made magically, I preferred it made freshly, especially when I'm not the one making it.
“Now where did they all disappear?” Dixon asked Ethan who was admiring my book collection and there were a lot to admire, I had a large book case overflowing with books, and there was also more stacked up on the floor. Dixon hated it because it made his side look bland I smile at his comment all the time, because his side just has a sofa and a dart board.
“No one knows” he said simply sounding a million miles away from the conversation.
“What do you mean they don’t know? Were they at work? Or home?” I asked him confused, everyone was somewhere when they went missing, walking home from work, or visiting a friend.
“I mean no one knows” he said again, I looked at him as he ran a hand through his hair, man this must be getting to him if he was so annoyed to mess up his hair.
“Then that’s where we start” I said and picked up my keyboard, I turned on my computer and started to type. I hacked into the police files and searched their names to find out there addresses.
“How do you propose we do this Nancy Drew?” Dixon mocked I looked at him for a second and then back at my computer. I pressed print and stood up and picked up the three pieces of paper that came out of it. I folded each and walked to Ethan and placed one on his desk and then shoved one into Dixon’s chest as I spoke
“We search their homes find out what they were doing the night they disappeared and then we do the same. It’s a chance that we will find out what happened to them. There are 3 of them and 3 of us, search whoever I just gave you” I said and unfolded mine, great I get the guy who knows what I'm going to find in his apartment. I studied the address for a moment, hmm strange he lives like 3 minutes from me, never seen him before though I don’t think.
“Great, now that that’s sorted can I go back to bed?” Dixon asked, I smiled at him, it was what I was about to ask. Ethan grinned like a clown; I frowned when I saw it Ethan never grinned.
“Nope, this isn’t why Vann got you both out of bed” he said waving the piece of paper I had given him, my face held a confused look.
“What do you mean this isn’t why?” I asked slowly, Ethan produced a key from his pocket and walked out my glass door, I looked at him then at Dixon who was looking at me we both shrugged and followed after.
“What she said” Dixon quickly said sounding worried to what might be ahead of us. Ethan motioned us to follow him, we did and we ended up by a cabinet at the far corner, it was next to Marty’s desk, I didn’t like that at all. I suddenly distasted that cabinet and even more so when Ethan opened it. It was stacked full of papers, two stacks to be exact and they both made something click in my mind.
“Ethan” I moaned at him as he leant his walking stick on the side and picked up a stack and placed it in my arms, I took it but I was tempted to drop it and stomp my foot throw a tantrum and storm out with Dixon in my wake.
“What? It’s not me that didn’t do there paper work” Ethan said giving the other stack to Dixon who held the same expression of hate that I did. Of course good boy did his paperwork, he probably did it as soon as it was given to him on his desk by Marty, one of my least favourite troll employee, he would place pieces of paper in the tray on my desk and then expect me to do it and have it ready for when he did he second round.. I followed Dixon back to our office whilst Ethan went somewhere else. I dropped the stack down and plunked myself in my seat; I picked up one of my pens from the pot and set on with my work.
“Hey Dixon” I said putting my pen down and glancing over at him doing his work.
“hmmm” he said looking up, I caught his eye and for a moment I was going to ask him about what he wasn’t telling me, but I knew he hated it when I read him, I could read people and I knew that Dixon wasn’t being all that honest about something, my mouth was about to say something before I stopped myself.
“Uhh go make me some coffee would yah?” I said like an idiot, he glanced down at my coffee in my hands and then raised an eyebrow.
“It tastes better made normally, plus you owe me for taking my one this morning” I said in defence, he shot me a grin that would have made me swoon like a loved up teenager if I was remotely interested in him like I was when I first met him, I smiled all the same showing a perfect set of white teeth.
“So are you gunna?” I asked him, he looked at me and laughed shaking his head; he loosened his tie and ran a hand through his hair as he spoke
“No”
.......................................................................................................................................................................................
After three hours straight of doing work and trying to get Dixon to get me that coffee, after I asked I then craved one but was too lazy to get it myself. I sighed, I had given up, I was half way through, and I had a hand cramp. I looked over at Dixon who had given up ages ago and was taking a nap on his sofa, I sighed at least someone was catching up on their sleep. I glanced over at his desk across from mine probably the reason we both have all this paperwork Obviously all that time I spent playing blu-tack movies with Dixon was not worth it looking at the mounds of work in front of me. Dixon had a lot of work to do still like I did.
“This definitely could have waited till a decent hour, I'm so going to have serious words with Vann” I grumbled to myself, I twirled around a few times in my seat my head laid back watching the ceiling.
“Oh it could be worse” Dixon said, I looked at him and half laughed, so it seems Mr Payne wasn’t asleep after all, he hand his eyes closed and was draped on the sofa. I just assumed that Dixon didn’t snore so I thought he was asleep, now I'm wondering if he does snore again.
“How could this get any worse?” I asked as I glanced at a troll Gibbs, he doesn’t particularly like me much and threw me a dirty look through the window, I raised my eyebrow. Trolls started coming in for work about half an hour ago, and there were a few other Shay agents that turned up and commented about seeing me and Dixon doing paper work for once. Shay agents can come in whenever they like, there are no set hours but everyone tries to pop in every day.
“I don’t know, but it could” he said I laughed, I looked around but I couldn’t see Ethan anywhere, I eyed his office, through the blinds I could see him on the phone. I smiled slightly, Ethan got the private office all to himself instead of sharing like me and Dixon had to because he was the one that dealt with everything, all the phone calls and personal meetings, and I mean I bet that he has actually met Vann. He is the one with all the connections, some people are jealous of Ethan’s power over them even if he never uses it, but I am just happy for him, ever since his accident he has been a bit down. He still has a slight limp, he was in a car accident I was with him along with Dixon and Amanda she was another member of our team and Ethan’s girlfriend, she died in that accident.
She was driving, it was a high speed chase, the car had been sabotaged the break lines cut, the car spun off the road and into a tree. She was pronounced dead on the scene; I remember it like it was yesterday, Dixon pulling me out with him and Ethan leaning over Amanda’s dead body he had broken his leg badly, which is what's preventing him from being able to fight in the Shay so he got the paper work job, but even with everyone saying that I don’t believe them.
I know Ethan is as strong as ever, even with the limp it’s just that he is only physically strong, mentally not so much. Seeing Amanda die really messed him up, I haven’t seen him cry, shout, complain or anything, he is the perfect agent. Relations between co-workers are forbidden for a reason, but they didn’t care and they were amazing together. I looked down at the picture on my desk; it was of us all after we’d passed all of Vann’s tests. A smile danced on my lips, I had had such a big crush on Dixon back then and he had his arm around my shoulder which caused the blush photo evidence that I wasn’t always so cool when it came to guys.
“Yeah I might have to spend an entire day with you getting this lot done” I said and carried on with my work, I looked at my watch just gone 10 am, I rolled my eyes. I looked up at the door as May knocked on the door I motioned her in when I saw that she was holding coffee, I almost jumped out of my seat and kissed the girl. She was a Sculvera and she was my new favourite person in the whole world.
“Miss Vega” she said nodding at me then looked at Dixon who had sat up noticing the coffee as well I see “Mr Payne” she nodded at him as well. She placed the coffee in front of me and then passed one to Dixon who got up and sat at his desk.
“Mr Cain thought that you’d like refreshments” She explained, I smiled broadly at her as I picked up the coffee putting it to my lips, the smell was enough to drive you insane, i took a long sip and moaned it was like heaven in a cup. I could die happily now.
“You are a babe May, If I wasn’t so lazy I would have kissed you by now, so instead rain check?” I
