2023-02-19 05:00:00There wasn’t a lot of things Charlie disliked but being embarrassed in public would definitely top those charts.
she was sure she had booked a reservation at this stupid restaurant now they were saying they were fully booked.
She turned to where Mr.Black stood not far away from the chaos that she felt she had now created but in a way so far away from it.
He glanced at her and she bit her lips dreading the fact that she would have to tell him that she hadn’t quite booked the reservation she thought she had.
she walked over to him, wishing she could get swallowed by the ground or she could disappear into thin air.
Charlie knew he would tease her but that wasn’t what she dreaded most.
He would now think she was some incapable woman who couldn’t get anything properly done without a man.
Why had she insisted on the date?
Gosh! How embarrassing.

Jake walked towards the hidden entrance to the club and tried to make looking drunk as natural as possible. He wasn’t so good at acting but he made sure he put his heart into it. Jake was already used to acting as the decoy in their operations, sometimes Charlie and rarely William. At the entrance, he noticed that there were two hefty looking guys dressed in black. As he saw a car pull up, he decreased his pace and observed the way the bodyguards attended to the men. Was there some sort of dress code?The theme to this party had to be depressing. He wished he had dressed more properly, maybe then he could sneak in unnoticed.Alright Jake, it game time.Act natural…from the side of his eyes he caught sight of their car and figured William must be having so much fun watching him play the drunk dumb fool.“Lights. Camera,Action.” Wobbly steps, he took another sip from his bottle and staggered towards the entrance. As he got closer , they looked up stared him dead in the eyes and

When Jake got into the club, he was met with loud music, flashing light and drunk dancing people. He winced, he could already feel the migraine coming.Jake wasn’t at all a big fan of busy places. He made sure to avoid parties and crowded public places especially because of the anxiety that it caused him. The time he spent in the club waiting for William to come meet up with him felt like eternity.He wished he’d come with earplugs but he needed his eyes and ears so he would suffer though this. His first impulse was to get a drink but he had to stop himself because he would be driving William home soon…he couldn’t afford to take a shot with his low tolerance for alcohol. After a few painful minutes, William came in and they both updated each other on the situation of things. Jake told William that he would most likely be able to go in if they thought he was a client, and walking in just like that wasn’t going to be an option. but William told him that since they weren’t going t

Charlie was trying her best not to loose her cool. She had barely walked into the office when Jake and Will called for an emergency meeting at her office.Charlie thought it was kind of ironic that they were always holding emergency in her office even when she didn’t call any of them, wasn’t the team leader and had the office that was furthest from the entrance. “Yup, and in regulated quantities with a handbook with health effects, negative side effects, directions for usage e.t.c.”William replied.“Wow! I feel played, why were they being so suspicious about it If it was so legal and regulated.”“Seems like it’s the chain for the elites and popular so it has to be discrete” Jake answered.“Fuck! Thought we were really onto something.” Jake and William were a little surprised that she was reacting so angrily.They figured she must’ve been upset about something else. While she continued expressing her displeasure at how things had turned out, Jake and William linked eyes over her he

When Jake and William left Charlie’s office, they suspected that the reason she was so grumpy was most likely boy problems and also their disappointing trip to that strange club. Maybe her date with that guy she kept hanging out with didn’t go well they mused. While Jake was preparing for his ride down with William, he knew Charlie would show up because she didn’t let her personal life’s mess with her work.She was most likely to let her work mess with her personal life. When it was time to go pay a visit to Lulu, they were walking towards the car when Charlie appeared from the entrance to their office. Jake shook his head when he heard William mutter under his breath “Yes! I’m off the hook.”“If you hated being out in public so much, you shouldn’t have taken this job.”Jake replied.“I needed money to feed my wife and kids.”William replied.“Will, you hadn’t even met your wife when you took this job and you do not have any kids.” Jake said.William faked a gasp and widened his

Jake and Charlie made their way into the trailer to meet with Lulu. When they got in, she stood up briefly to welcome them into her home.The place betrayed last minute efforts to put things in order, but it was a good thing that she at least thought of what guests thought of her home- when she wasn’t high. Lulu’s hair looked like it hadn’t been washed in weeks, Charlie suspected that the funny smell that seemed to linger on in the room came from Lulu. She sat back down into her recliner after offering them a seat in the two of the rickety chairs in her room. Charlie noticed that she had been knitting and was a little surprised.But it’s ok for drug addicts to have a hobby she thought.“Hi, I’m agent Spencer and this is agent Brown.” Jake said when they had sat down.“I’m Lulu, nice to meet you.”“It’s a fine bunch of rascals you got there Lulu.” Jake said after they had sat down.“Those kids are the only reason I feel the need to go on with my life, they’re my gift from the heave

Johnny Maddox was not happy at all and everyone around him knew it.It seemed like the past few days things just kept getting out of hand and spinning out of his control.That was not good.Everything had to be in his control because he was in charge, always in charge. Bryan had told him that things at the stash went a bit off. A client’s order had been handled carelessly and he was not happy about it. The people in charge of client’s delivery for some reason thought that they had properly handled the order and delivered it to the right person.

On the way to Jeremy’s house, Charlie texted William to tell him the update so far. He seemed hopeful on the lead to find Joel. Then he told them that they had better brought something reasonable from their trip to the two locations because Harroway had already called to ask for updates on the Diane Wilson case. “Harroway needs to chill, it’s not even being a week.” Charlie said.“Well Harroway doesn’t have a week, and neither do I. The earlier we solve this one, the earlier we can get on with something else.”Jake said.“Now that’s the attitude we need in the FBI.” Charlie rolled her eyes.“The two of you can rush things, but I know slow and steady wins the race.”“Slow and steady? People are dying Kim.”Jake said and they both laughed.“What’s funny?” William asked.“People are actually dying, is the joke that called her Kim instead of Charlie?”“Yup.” Jake replied and glanced sideways at Charlie.Apart from the fact that explaining a joke automatically makes it less funny, they

By now they would be married with kids and be the most content man alive. He let his mind wander to the first time he’d suggested they elope.“Let’s run away, together.”Eunice sat up and looked at Johnny, bewildered.“What are you talking about?”Johnny took her hands in his and looked into her big blue beautiful eyes that reminded him of the ocean and he wanted to get lost in it.“I’m tired of playing hide and seek baby, I just want to be with you in a way that is natural away from all these.”Eunice shifted uneasily and moved away from his gaze.“I don't know Johnny, I reall

When Charlie got home, the first thing she did was get into the bathroom and she took a shower.It was a long shower.Taking shower had always been therapeutic to her.Her bathroom had seen her on her worst days and also on some happy days. In here was where she had had all her major emotional breakdowns.It felt soothing to know that she could in in here with the shower running as she blocked the outside world out and know that everything would be ok. Today, her shower felt like a treat.She added eucalyptus to the shower head, made sure to wash her long luscious black hair. Using a skin sloughing doing, she carefully exfoliated and ended it all with an aromatic cleanser. When she stepped out of the shower, she felt relaxed and free like a heavy weight was suddenly lifted off her shoulders.

“Any plans for the evening? You seem to be in a rush to get home.” Jake said as he and Charlie signed out for the day.“Do you have any plans that would involve me?”“I was thinking that maybe after work, we could grab a couple beers.”He replied.“You shouldn't wait till the last minute to ask this hunk of gorgeousness out for the evening.”“But you know it had never been a problem in the past, you user to have an open schedule all day, everyday.”Charlie smiled because she knew that Jake wasn't wrong.“Now things have changed darling, I got plans.”She said proudly“Ooooooh, who’s the new love interest?”Jake asked looking unimpressed. Charlie hesitated a little as she thought about what her response would be.Telling the truth which was that she was trying to stalk the person who had ghosted her out of the blues by going to hang out t the club where they had first met sounded quite silly. “I’m going out alone.” was all she could reply.“Well, great I’ll tag along.”“It needs to

Johnny Maddox sat on his office chair, brows furrowed and he appeared to be deep in thought. His gloved hands reached over and touched his silver cross necklace. He had a meeting scheduled for twelve thirty later today but for the first time ever, his prospective meeting wasn't the subject of his thoughts. That girl, he needed to see her again but wasn't quite sure why. Maybe he knew he though but wasn't quite ready to accept that as the truth, it sucked.“She is out of my life, I should be glad but why doesn't it feel right?” he said out loud. That girl was more of a thorn in his flesh that seemed like she belonged there and now that the thorn was gone, his comfort was becoming a little more uncomfortable. His phone buzzed and at first, he was a little embarrassed by how eager he was to go read the text, then he was disappointed when he saw who the text was from.Pink-topped Sara!Are we still down to hang today? Was the text she had sent.She had gotten tired of calling him wh
