Room 512, Then Hotel Room 610, Late Friday Afternoon

Oct 02, 2009 13:25

Elena was painting her toenails. Actually, Elena was realizing the inherent difficulties in painting your toenails, when you also had a curious, wriggly little kitten sniffing at your toes. And trying to lick them. .... Shit... right, so, Elena was digging out nail polish remover and giving up on the matter entirely before she accidentally poisoned ( Read more... )

Why yes, Tseng could have just hunted Elena down. But it wasn't as though he was going to just come right out and tell her where he was at, after all.

He thought he was funny, calling and making her guess, yes.

One of these days, someone was going to throttle him for that.

Except probably not, considering that he was the boss and really, put up with entirely too much shit on that front.

"Hellooooo," Elena sang out, cheerfully. "Are you calling just to check up on me? I'm not doing paperwork. You can't fire me, I'm too much fun."

Rookie was being adorable. It was hard not to be giddy. Even if that was Tseng's ringtone. Hi, Tseng!

"Mmm." Tseng might have sounded the slightest bit amused at her demeanor. If you listened for it. Closely. This was nothing new. "I suppose I would have to call just to check up on you, if it meant getting you to do your paperwork, wouldn't it?"

This was a joke, really. If she did the paperwork slowly, then he wouldn't have to figure out what the hell to do about their deal.

It was twelve minutes later that a very uncertain Elena rapped on the door of room 610. Folder tucked under one arm. Wriggling, squirmy kitten snuggled inside her jacket. She'd almost called Reno, to ask if he thought she should make something else up, but ... maybe Tseng had a right to know.

Rookie, for her part, was chewing on Elena's zipper and mrowling at the door. Hey! A door!

Knocking. And meowing. And three minutes early. Tseng was impressed. A bit put off by the cat sounds on the other side of his door, perhaps, but impressed.

He opened the door, and fixed Elena with a look that said, with little more than a slightly inclined eyebrow, that she had best come inside, take a seat, and tell him what the hell was going on. Now.

"Don't you dare yell at me for this," Elena said, pre-emptively, her voice trembling. Fear, nerves, she had no idea what from.

It was at that point that Rookie stuck one paw out of her jacket, waving it towards Tseng. She could get him! She was gonna -- awwww, she couldn't reach. She mrowled unhappily and tried again. Gonna! Gonna get him!
