Accidentally in Love [Brett Hand x OC]

23

Theodora sat with Gigi in the break room one morning, Reagan was at the kitchen making coffee and trying not to listen to their sometimes disturbing conversations. Most of Theo and Gigi's conversations surrounded sex, boys, or Love Island.

"Hey, you know when you have a dream about someone and it like, totally makes you look at them differently?" Theo asked Gigi.

"You mean like, a sexy dream?" Gigi raised an eyebrow.

"Kind of." Theo blushed, recalling her dream from the night before. "But not really."

"About who?" Gigi stood excitedly, shaking Theo's shoulders.

"Um-"

"Tell me!"

"Don't laugh." Theo warned, a frown on her face.

"Unless it's Glenn, I will not, and cannot judge." Gigi swore.

"Well-"

"It was Brett!" Gigi guessed before Theo had the chance to respond.

"Maybe." Theo couldn't meet Gigi's eye without laughing.

"Fuckin gross." Reagan muttered, overhearing their conversation despite trying so hard not to.

"Wasn't talking to you." Theo snapped rudely to her sister.

"You had a wet dream about Brett?" Gigi exclaimed a little too loudly, and with perfect timing, the door to the break room swung open and the man himself entered.

"What's up, gang!" Brett grinned, pointing finger guns at them, "Did I hear my name?" Theo and Gigi at once burst out laughing, and Reagan only rolled her eyes. It was perfect timing.

Theo couldn't look at him properly, her dream just coming back to her, she clutched her stomach, her laughs becoming silent and wheezy.

"What's with them?" Brett asked Reagan, clueless.

"They're fucking immature children." Reagan shrugged, sipping on her coffee.

Theo, out of breath, reached for her glass of water and took a sip. Her eyes met with Brett's and she began laughing again, spitting out her water and choking. She tried not to appear rude and as if she was laughing at him, even though she kind of was.

"Is she alright?" Brett seemed concerned but mainly wary of the girls' hysterics. It was a lot of laughter and energy for a Monday morning.

"She's only choking." Reagan shrugged as she watched Theo's face turn red. "Not a big deal."

Gigi thumped her hand on Theo's back to help her, "Yeah, choking. Feel familiar from your dream last night?" Gigi said between laughs, "Except it wasn't water you were choking on, was it?"

"Hey!" Theo stood suddenly, swatting Gigi's arm away. She refused to look at Brett, embarrassed beyond belief. Gigi stood as well, slapping Theo's arm in return.

"Cat fight!" Brett grinned in amusement, and Reagan only face palmed. Gigi was laughing until Theo gave her a pinch on the arm to shut her up for good about her dream,

"Oh! Ow!" Gigi groaned, rubbing her arm.

"Ha! Two can play this game!" Theodora exclaimed, "Is that the sound that you make when Andre-"

"No!" Gigi snapped harshly, warning her to shut up.

"Oh, Andre!" Theo mocked outrageously, "Right there, Andre! Trust me, the whole world can hear your little sessions in the disabled bathroom."

"You are a disgusting creature, Theo." Reagan sighed, before leaving the room, Brett not far behind, a little bit scarred from what he had just witnessed.

"I'll murder you." Gigi warned, but Theo only laughed.

"You love me."

Later, Brett and Theo sat in the surveillance room as Reagan had ordered them to watch over an assassination attempt in order for it to go smoothly.

Theo had Jasper and a couple other assassins on the intercom, and she watched the screens intently.

"Theo," The intercom crackled, "you there?"

"Yes." She spoke into the intercom, "What is it? You found trouble or something?"

"No, I'm just bored. I've been sitting in this ventilation shaft for fucking 20 minutes and my leg's cramping," It was Jasper.

Theo let out a long and loud sigh, Brett noticed this, the clear look of annoyance on her face as Jasper spoke.

"You have a job to do, so just do it." Theo said harshly into the intercom.

"Can't you just entertain me while I wait here? A bit of dirty talk over radio?" Jasper's tone was playful but Theo was not having it.

"We aren't alone, dumbass." She shot a look towards Brett, "And even if we were, I don't have the patience for your shit right now. I'm putting you on mute." She proceeded to mute him and place her feet up on the table.

"A bit harsh, no?" Brett raised an eyebrow at the girl. "But I guess treat 'em mean, keep 'em keen."

"He'll be fine." Theo waved her hand airily, "I'm so sick of his voice. He's much more tolerable when he just keeps his mouth shut."

Brett laughed nervously, it sounded like she didn't even like Jasper at all. Was this how she treated all her boyfriends, or just Jasper?

They sat in silence for a bit while they watched the screens absentmindedly.

"So..." Brett broke the silence, "what was with you and Gigi in the break room earlier?"

"Oh," It was her turn to laugh nervously, "that's just how we are. Y'know, can't take anything seriously... We have really dirty minds. Sorry you had to walk in on that."

"Ha, I can tell." Brett thought back to Theo and Gigi teasing each other, "But hey, that's good to hear. For a second there, I thought you guys were laughing about me."

"Whaaatt? Nooo, of course not!" Theodora raised her eyebrows, "We would never. You just came in at a really bad time."

"Alright, glad to hear it." Brett chuckled, before turning his eyes back on the screen, "Hey, your boyfriend's on the move."

The way he said boyfriend sounded somewhat bitter, and Theo turned her eyes to the screen. Jasper had left the ventilation shaft and he and some other assassins had approached the person they were taking out.

"You might want to close your eyes." Theo grimaced, but she kept her eyes on the screen, watching for danger.

"Is it over yet?" Brett peered over his hands at the screens.

"Yeah." She responded, before grabbing the radio and talking into it, "Move out, dipshits, you've got company." She watched on the screen as multiple security guards approached the room they were in.

Once they had safely left the building, Theo switched off the screens and sighed, "I can't believe Reagan put me in charge of that. She thinks that just because I'm sleeping with Jasper I want to spend all day watching him kill people."

"You don't?"

"No. I'd rather spend all day with you, dummy."
