"They're never going to let me in here."

The beep of Lloyds badge hitting the scanner echoed around them, the double doors swinging open as he steered them down the hallway. "They don't have to know." His grip was tight on her arm, jerking her in different directions before Addison let out an aggravated huff. "If you don't get your hands off of me, I will cut them off." It was a silent promise, one that made Lloyd chuckle, loosening his grip before they stopped in front of two double doors. "You're still as feisty as ever sunshine," He turned Addison towards him, two fingers under her chin, forcing her to hold eye contact, "do not say anything to this man, not about what we're doing, not about who we're chasing, as far as he knows you and I are back together and I'm stopping by to pick up some files for a trip."

His free hand slipped into his back pocket, pulling out a usb drive, "as soon as you have a clear opening, get that program off his laptop, it's always unlocked and sitting on his desk," he took Addison's hand, her palm facing up and the drive falling in the center, each finger slowly being curled around the stick. "Pretend that you're sickly in love otherwise this won't work," Lloyd murmured, watching as she tucked her hand inside the pocket of her sweatshirt, the other lacing their fingers together. "Of course, it's not like there's any animosity at all," her words were venom, his shoulders squaring as he stood to his full height, "after all, it's for a mission."

Addison's icy tone delivered the blow straight to Lloyd's chest. "Just, try to act like you don't hate me."

He scanned his badge once more, the doors sliding open before he lead Addison through the threshold, sitting down at his desk, patting his thigh for her. "Well, well, well," a male's voice echoed around the space as soon as Addison settled against Lloyd's chest, her hood pulled up while she nuzzled into his neck, taking in his scent, "if it isn't Lloyd Hansen and Agent Jones back together again." Denny's voice settled on Addison like a cold blanket, her eyes blinking up at Lloyd who nodded. "Well, she's no longer working for the agency and I don't work for mine, so I could actually be with the woman I love right sunshine?" Lloyd smirked, leaning down to press a kiss to her forehead. "Mhm, no one can get in our way now."

Denny chuckled, several years as a high ranking C.I.A. official and he couldn't see through a lie.

"Well if it's not too much to ask Miss Jones," Denny's voice drawled out, his laptop appearing behind him, the screen dark, the reflection of herself and Lloyd making her breath halt, "my laptop has been awfully slow, I know you're good with computers, I was hoping maybe you could take a look?" It was too easy, Addison looked up at Lloyd, his own smirk resting on his lips before he leaned down to whisper in her ear. "It's too easy, do it." A sharp intake of air filled her lungs before she tilted her head back, looking up at Denny with a smile. "Not a problem sir," Lloyd pat her thigh as she stood up, walking over to his desk, seeing Denny sit across from Lloyd. "He's on a mission, I'm just going to go over some files while you look."

It shouldn't of been this easy, it was basically dropped in her lap. Addison pulled the usb drive out of her pocket as soon as her back was to the men, a mirror on Denny's desk being angled so she could keep an eye on him. Sticking the drive into the laptop, she started the transfer, typing the proper codes in so she could get the full program, her eyes constantly flickering back and forth from the screen to the mirror. Her heart was thundering, the blood rushing in her ears making it hard for her to hear any conversation.

In all her years, she always worked for the government not against it.

Addison's eyes scanned over the screen, that loading bar taunting as she worked on cleaning the files out, her movements pausing when she saw a classified file named the Sierra project, the same project that Court was a part of. Her spine went straight, eyes scanning the desk before she found a drawer labeled 'empty usb drives', she almost let a laugh out, throwing her hand over her mouth to stifle it and covering the smack with a cough, "sorry, took in too much air! I'll be done soon." She stated when she saw both Lloyd and Denny glance in her direction.
