Non-Random Partners
“Okay,” said Sara. “Assignments. Nate and Amaya, head into town, try to blend in, and find out how all these Beanie Babies got to Eighteen-Twenty-Five.”
“Right,” said Amaya.
“Mick and Wally, you’ve got patrol. Anybody - or anything - entering or leaving this town, I wanna know about it.”
“You got it, boss,” said Wally.
“Ray, Zari and I are going to break into the mayor’s office and see what’s really going on around here.”
“He’s not going to just shrink and pick the lock, is he?” asked Zari. “Because I’m in the mood for some actual breaking.”
“We’ll see,” Sara told her.
“Hey, wait,” said Ray. “In the last few missions, I’ve been partnered with absolutely everyone except Mick. You’re not going to tell me that’s a coincidence, are you, captain?”
Sara arched an eyebrow at him. “Can I trust you not to start making out with your boyfriend and get distracted from what you’re supposed to be doing?”
“Yes,” said Ray, indignant, just as Mick snorted, “No.”
Ray flushed pink. “It was one time.”
“Yeah, and it hurt,” said Zari.
“You let me and Amaya go together,” Nate pointed out - Ray held out a fist and Nate bumped it with his own.
Sara glared at them both. “Amaya is an adult,” she said. “And no changing partners now. Ray, Mick, you two can… whatever, when we’re done and back on the ship.”
“Fine,” Ray sighed.
Mick, heading out, caught his hand. “Hey, Haircut,” he said, grinning. “I promise you a whole lotta ‘whatever’ when we get back.”
“Yeah?” said Ray, and kissed him.
“Ew,” said Zari. When they pulled apart to look at her, she added, “I mean, you guys are cute and stuff, but still… gross.”
Sara pushed between them. “Plenty of time for that later, boys. Let’s go.”
