Chapter Six

-

"M, this is not funny. This about this" you whined while grabbing her arm to stop where she was planning to go

You efficiently stopped her because of your strength. With years of working out, it was all worth it

"Let me think" Agent M put a hand on her chin, making you release her arm you grabbed

"I'll talk to him" Agent M finalized her decision and went running towards his desk

But before Agent M arrived, you pulled her again

"Okay, okay. Let me prepare my self " you stretched your arms, straightened your suit, and tightened the ties of your boots

" Your preparing yourself because you still love him, don't you?" You visibly wince at the word love 

Then you realized, why am I even doing this. You slapped yourself hard on your cheek but soon groaned

"Oooh" Agent M furrowed her brows but soon laughed it out

"You do!" She exclaimed

"Shut up!" You started walking towards his desk

"Oh! You didn't deny it!" Agent M was full on laughing at Your red face

"Shush. Let's just do it" you muttered as you slapped her shoulders

Agent X and Agent M approached Agent H's desk

He appears to be..snoring..and sleeping?

It made your heart skip a beat seeing him up close

"Uh, Ahem" Agent M pretended to clear her throat and knock his table in attempt to wake Agent H up but failed

"Yeah, that won't work, M" you took the dossier that Agent M is holding

And slammed it on H's Desk. Hard enough to wake him up, but not hard enough to break the gadget

You're thoughts went flying to the time you had to throw a cup of iced water to wake him up when you both consumed some alien drink that had a very high percentage of alcohol.

It was quickly dismissed when he woke with a shout

"GAH!" he jumped on his seat s his eyes immediately landed on yours. His eyes had always been your weakness.

"Wakey-wakey!" You shouted as you brought the gadget back to Agent M and diverted your eyes away his gaze

"Sorry" you muttered still not meeting his eyes and just eyeing his desk

"Ahem, Hi. What a nice face to wake up to" H started and kept his gaze on X's face

You elbowed Agent M's ribs to which she pinched your hips

"Hey. I'm awake. It's alright" he is clearly still not awake

' God! His voice. Stop it X  '

"Just catching up on my daily meditation"

"Yep! Clearly a meditation" you sarcastically said not being able to see the loving gaze he was giving to you

Agent M broke the awkward silence

"I have been meaning to try that" Agent M confessed

You watch as H desperately rubs his eyes to be awake

You almost.. ALMOST  wanted to grab his arm and make him stop damaging his eyeball

"I read that it dramatically improves mitochondrial energy production" Agent M continued

" And it can also significantly improve brain function and energy levels" You added

"Yep, yep. Whatever you two said. It absolutely does" H said as he leaned on his hand with fingers on his temple

"My mitochondrial energy is through the roof" he added as H adjusted his suit jacket

"Uhm. Have we met before?" H questioned Agent M

Which Agent M denied and introduced herself

"Agent M"  H then turned to Agent X with a  small smile and adoration visible in his eyes

"Ah, Agent X. My--I mean You, I know you very well. How've you been?" He covered the his slip up with a cough

"It's been great. Nice to see you again"

' I did not just say that '

"Why did you just say that?" Agent M whispered in my ear, she earned another jab on the rib

"I dont know" you are full on panicking as you whispered back to M

"Uh, Right. I heard you were in the vungus meet" Agent M said to H

"Oh Shucks! Almost forgot. H--Agent H, Agent High T said I'd assist you considering this Jababian matter" you announced and started picking out your nails. A habit you won't be able to remove

H noticed this. It took all his strength to not hold them and caress them like he always did.

"That! High T told me about that. It's nice to be your partner again, X" with a gentle smile

You tapped M to continue what she was saying

"I wanted to offer assistance.." she pointed to H and You"..for the both of you"

You threw a thumbs up to her and a smile. The smile that blinded Agent H. Oh, how he misses your smile

"I'm a bit of a Jababian wonk" you didn't know where Agent M was doing, but you let her do her job. This was her own assignment and you would like to see what she would do

"Language, culture, politics, fashion" M continued

You tilted you head in confusion. She was a wonk? Sorry to disappoint people but there are times her mind is floating, especially she's now around with H

"Anyways, I compiled a dossier for you to read" Agent M gave the dossier to Agent H

" A dossier, I love a good dossier "

' yeahh, he doesn't '

" The thing is..ask around. I already have a partner. Ask anyone around here"

His response made you furrow your brows. You could always need a helping hand.

You were about the interfere their conversation but soon got cut off by Agent M continuing to talk about Jababians

" Did you know Jababians are claircognizant empaths, which means they can read your mind?" H didn't seem to focus on what she was saying as he started munching on some..M&Ms?

He stretched his arms to offer you the candies, he knows how much you love these.

"Uhuh. And your cards" H added to Agent M's statement.

You accepted the candy, took six pieces and quickly retracted your arm to not make any embarrassing actions

"Well, they do have a tell" Agent M said

"What's that?" You and H spoke up. Looking to your side to see H already looking at you, but you frantically broke it and glared at the smirking Agent M. She gave a knowing and teasing wink at you

She wanted to slap this two to oblivion and make them confess their feelings to each other and clear their 'mishaps'

She cleared her throat "Subdermal spots on the underside of their arms. They change color" she raised her arm and pointed to her arm. Then just playing it off by tucking her hair awkwardly

"Mhm. Good to know. Thanks for the offer. But I'm good" he just nodded and clamped his hand together after pointing at her

You were about to open your mouth to talk that would convince H to accept Agent M's assistance but M cuts you off. Again.

"Okay. Message understood. I will leave you to your.. meditation" Agent M walked off as H sat on his seat to get comfortable

"A--"you were about to start when Agent M cut you off. Again. For the fourth time.

"Oh. Do you know what your tell is? You snore when you meditate." She stated, you smirked at what she said

"That's when you know the meditation is good when they're snoring" you winked at Agent M

And mouthed " i got you  " which, she understood and walked away

Agent H face you with a smile

" Try meditating. It's good" he said to you

" Nah, I'm good. Now be a good partner and accept her help so we don't die and turn down her first assignment. Hm?" He wanted make X pleased and accepting her friend's help is the least he can do.  But before that, he wanted to say something to her

"I miss you"

two hearts skipping a beat. One yearning for his love.One pleading for her forgiveness

They could only wish to have each other again.
