Close Call
Emily poured her third cup of coffee for the day. She sat down to the table in the break room joining Frank, Duff, and Matt; she started to flip through a magazine that was on the table. Just than Lia walked in, she sat down next to Emily and let out a sigh. "What's the matter Mathers?" Emily asked taking a sip of her coffee.
"I'm so bored. It has been like two weeks since we've had a case" Lia replied
"Actually it has been fifteen days" Emily said "and it has been eight days since we have done anything productive."
"That's not true; our game of goldfish yesterday was very productive." Matt said
Emily rolled her eyes "Playing a game of cards for three hours is not being constructive. Frank, you should organize a game of paint ball" Emily said
"Yeah that sounds fun." Lia said
"Mathers, you don't even play" Duff told her
"I'm becoming desperate" Lia replied.
"Well I'm sorry but we can't play paint ball." Frank replied
"Why not?" Matt questioned
"Because it is budget time again. Every units' budget is being reviewed and Cheryl is a little worried that we've went over ours so she has asked me not to have any impromptu paint ball games for awhile" Frank replied.
"Arg. I'm so bored there has to be something to do" Emily said.
Just then Cheryl walked into the break room. She smiled at her team as she poured herself a cup of coffee.
"What is with that smile?" Matt asked
"What are you talking about Flannery?" Cheryl asked
"Cheryl, I was your partner for five years I know that smile. Whenever that smile comes out, I usually end up doing something I didn't want to then I get yelled at" Matt said
"Well you don't have to worry about being yelled at, I'm the boss now" Cheryl said taking a seat to the table. "I have a great idea up in the file room; there are about 90 tapes of hostages’ situations that were recorded before we went on the computer system. So those tapes need to be listened to and catalog into the computer. Since Emily and you have nothing else to do, I think I found a project for you." Cheryl replied with a huge smile on her face.
"Seriously?" Matt asked
"Yes seriously" Cheryl replied "Now let’s find something productive for the three of you." Cheryl said as Matt and Emily headed off to the file room.
"OK, this is Case number 6-786, dated June 1983 and the negotiators on the case was Agent Turner and Agent Copper" Emily said
"Slow down I don't type as fast as you read" Matt complained
"Well let me type and you make the notes" Emily said
"No you are better at making notes then me" Matt said
"Matt, we have been here for over an hour and we've only got five cases done" Emily said
"It's just busy work." Matt said "Let's take a break" Matt said taking a hold of Emily's arm and pulling her into his lap.
"Are you insane we're at work" Emily said but she didn't get up
"No, we're in a 7 X10 room that no one ever visits" Matt said kissing her
"What the hell" Emily replied before wrapping her arms around Matt's neck and deepen the kiss. Matt's hands began to rub her back before they found their way underneath her shirt. Emily slowly got up from the chair they were sat in and without breaking the kiss, the couple moved to the floor so they would have more room. Matt rested himself atop of Emily, his lips to her neck and back to her lips again. His hands began to gently rub her breasts then they made their way down to the button of Emily's pants. He easily undid the button at the same time Emily's hands had made their way to Matt's pants, she was about to undo his belt when she heard a noise. "Matt, what was that noise?" She asked freezing with fear.
"I didn't hear anything. It must just be your imagination" Matt said kissing Emily again. They continue to kiss for a few more minutes and as Emily's hands made their way back to Matt's belt buckle they both heard a voice call out their names. They both jump up and quickly fix their clothes just in time for Lia to enter the room. "You two forgot your pagers upstairs. We got a situation, let's roll" Lia said
"Right behind" Matt said as the three quickly left the room and headed back upstairs. As Emily and Matt gathered up their kits from their desk Emily whispered to Matt "That was a close call" Matt just smiled and they both headed off to the situation knowing that the rest of the evening would be anything but boring.
