This Is a Terrible Time for a Surprise [party]
While Jemma had promised Drew that she would cut back on her extra hours, it was impossible to get her out of her office this Sunday, trying to catch up on any loose-ends she might have missed while investigating the murder pack. It was a silly name but it stuck ever since Sebastian came to visit. With him hunting, she felt she had no choice but to keep on top of it, trying to find whatever leads she could in order to help him.
The office was empty, Jemma making sure no one else worked the weekends if piles of evidence leading to a werewolf commune were going to litter her desk. She had music playing softly in the background, something she could tap her quill to as she read through the case files. It was a kind of silence she hadn't heard within these walls for a long time, typically filled with interrogations, secret meetings or the sounds of her employees joking with each other from their offices.
She leaned back, her eyes scanning the paperwork before glancing toward the clock. It was almost dusk, Jemma thankful Drew was having dinner with his parents, and she was beginning to think it was time to head home when a bit of bright paper caught her eyes.
She smiled as she pulled the invitation from the pile, the one Kiki had put together for Sebastian's birthday. She wasn't sure who first had the idea to throw him a surprise party but soon enough it was catching.
"Oh no-"
Jemma sat upright when she took in the sight of the date.
And then, she immediately grabbed her things and headed toward Reid's.
