It all started with Lori's flirting.

She wasn't very subtle about it. She was kind of obvious and it was annoying. Especially since Steve wasn't doing much about it, I mean he wasn't complaining much and I guess that's what really pisses me off. It seem like he was enjoying all the attention he was getting from her.

Maybe I should say something about it? Slap her in the face and scream that he was mine? No. That wouldn't be right. Especially since nobody actually knew we were together. Guess that were the ups and downs of dating someone you work with.

"I've been thinking." Lori spoke from her desk, beating her long lashes at us. Correction, at him. Subtle much? "Maybe we could go and grab a beer tonight, do some team bonding?"

Team bonding my ass. She wanted to see if she could get into his pants.

"Sorry, not for me." Chin spoke "I have a date with Malia."

"And I'm getting Grace tonight." Danny replied.

That left me, Steve and her. That wasn't a very pretty picture though.

"What about you guys?" even when she said guys her eyes were stuck on Steve, ignoring my presence completely. "Team bonding? We could have some fun." She suggests

He stands on his desk, deep in thought. Was he really thinking about going out with her? Or was he thinking of a really polite way to turn her down?

"That sound like a good idea." he speaks, finally, and if I could just reach him from my desk his pretty face would have a nice bruise right now. "But I'll have to say no."

"Why?" she actually looks sad. Boomer.

"I have a bunch of paperwork to finish and if I don't do it now it might be here forever." he says politely "Maybe you and Kono could go."

Lori stares at me, the 'I can't believe I'm gonna be stuck with you' look written all over her face. Can't say I didn't feel the same way. I forgot to mention she kind of hates me? Because she totally does. I mean it's not THAT obvious, but if you pay attention, like I do every day, the way she looks at me is not very friendly. Although I did not expect us to become best friends any time soon, I thought since we are the only females in the team we could at least be nice to each other.

We could have. But she decided to flirt with my man. That would make any girl unhappy, I tell you that much.

"No matter how much I love your invitation, Lori…" although I don't think she had much of a choice "I have the worse headache ever and I really want to go home and sleep forever."

Meaning? Steve wasn't getting anything from me today. No mister.

"That's a shame." she says, though I do think she was cheering inside. "Maybe some other time."

"Yes, that'll be nice." No, not really.

"I guess I should go then." she stands up, taking her purse. That was the guy's idea; girls should stick together because we have a bond. Seriously? The only bond Lori and I have is that we both have boobs. "Goodnight guys. Bye Steve."

She waves at him and disappears behind the glass doors. I stare at Steve for a brief second before turning my head towards the awful amount of paperwork to be done. I'm really trying hard to ignore the jealousy growing inside me with each passing second, I swear I am. But even the way she speaks to him is different than the way she speaks to Danny, or Chin. How can I stop feeling this way if I see her acting all teenager-ish around him all the time?

Then the way he smiled at her wasn't helping at all either.

"The team bonding thing was a pretty good idea" Steve speaks from the kitchen. I could really decide to either ignore his comment or snap back

"Yeah, especially to you." I snap. I could just see his smile even with his back turned towards me. He was really enjoying me being mad.

"What do you mean?" he asks innocently.

"You know what I mean. She practically worships the ground you walk on."

"No, she doesn't."

"Obviously you're enjoying this way too much."

"You're paranoiac."

"You know I'm right."

"She doesn't like me, Kono-" he states matter of factly.

"Of course she doesn't. She's totally and completely head over heels for you." Kono corrects sarcastically.

He laughs. He actually laughs at my own misery and jealousy. How can he find this amusing is beyond my own reasoning.

"I'm not joking." I snap at him. He stops laughing and turns towards me. "I know how she feels because I used to feel the same way when I first met you."

"Used to?"

"You know what I mean. I looked for excuses to spend more time with you, you know? That team bonding thing she's doing, that's an excuse."

"Well..." he grabs my hands and gives a light squeeze "that could work, if it wasn't because I'm head over heels for you."

How can I be mad at him after this?

"You better be"
