˗ˏˋ"Because it was perfect. And that kind of perfection doesn't make me feel weak. It makes me feel strong. I looked at myself in the mirror and I finally recognized that person I once knew so well. That person who went out all the time, sometimes just for fun. And, now that I've seen that person again, I don't know if I could ever go back."ˎˊ˗

The Secret Service was deep in Y/N's office this morning. She usually only has one client every other day or week due to the high priority and status of her clients. There were Secret Service agents everywhere. Outside, inside, near the windows, near the doors—everywhere. The air in Y/N's office felt moist and humid, and Y/N's gut was turning, and she didn't know why. But maybe it was because the President of the United States was in her office once again, and it wasn't his first time.
A Few Hours Earlier...
"Running in Christian Louboutin is so hard," Y/N thought as she ran through the Capitol. Y/N hated doing favors and dirty work for Reiner, but that was her husband, and she would do anything to make him look good in front of Congress.
"Y/N, slow down! They are in a different part of the building!" Y/N stops running in her tracks to see Armin down the hallway. Y/N drags her feet back down the hallway to Armin, who laughs as he takes some papers out of her hand. "Wonderful day we're having, huh?" Armin jokingly says this as Y/N continues to catch her breath.
Armin and Y/N went to the same college; Y/N and Armin were mostly partners in crime back in their wild college days, but Armin is a professional now; he's the big man in the suit that prosecutes big cases, and she couldn't be more proud of her Armin. " Um... How are you and Reiner doing? Marriage is a beautiful thing, you know?", Y/N did a little smile as she takes the papers from Armin when they arrived at the end of the hallway. "Yeah! We've been great! Have a good day, Armin."
Y/N never thought she would get married, but the crazy thing is, she knew why she got married. She got married to stop thinking about the times she shared with a man who was already forbidden. Y/N was never selfish, but she wasn't an altruistic person either. Y/N did love Reiner as well, and she couldn't lie and say the sex wasn't great. But she always thought about having something more thrilling, something that made her heart jump up and down and skip a beat.
Y/N calls her workers, Terminators.
A Terminator is essentially given a mission or an objective. At L/N Crisis Co., Y/N's terminators help clients eliminate things that don't need to be seen in the public eye. And sometimes Y/N has to play a little dirty to get those things done, but of course, she remains untouchable because she has friends in powerful places that will shoot down a capital just to make sure she's okay.
This week's client was none other than Eren Jaeger, one of Y/N's best friends from college as well. Fellow Georgetown alumni who studied government and were also in the top 5% of their class. But Eren was no stranger to having fun, and Y/N means a bit of too much fun. Eren was accused of sleeping with one of the congressmen's wives, and she threatened to put him on child support if he didn't own up to impregnating her.
"Y/N. You know me. You know I didn't do it; I swear, she is literally ballistic, and obsessed with me!" Eren yelled as he paced around Y/N's office like a kid who just had a sugar rush. Pete was in the back office looking up information on the wife that accused Eren while Fatima and Gigi made a timeline on the whiteboards around the main investigation office room. "Eren, you need to tell me the full story because I can't help you if you lie to me, and you know-"
"I don't like when people lie," Y/N and Eren said together, mostly Eren just mocking her tone as Y/N rolled her eyes at Eren. "Ok, maybe I was screwing John's wife, but so what? I wanted to blow off some steam, and John wasn't fucking his wife, so I did! But that doesn't mean I got her pregnant," Eren scoffed as Y/N rubbed her eyes as she started writing down notes.
"Eren... I'm trusting you since you know how I like to proceed with my craft and organization of things." Y/N got up, and started sticking notes on her sticky board. "For now, do your job, lie low, and you better not see Cassandra at all!"
"I just feel as though-"
"Aht! No! Don't even try it" Y/N said cutting Eren off. Eren slumped down in the chair groaning because he was being scolded by Y/N. But, sometimes Y/N had to hold Eren accountable for his reckless ways. It felt like sometimes Eren was the only one out of their friend group that used Y/N's services religiously.
Y/N had another client to please before next week, or she would not be the best fixer in DC if she could. But Y/N would be lying if she said she was not the best at her job.
8:40 p.m
Y/N was sitting at the dinner table, waiting for Reiner to return. He was late for dinner for the fourth time this week, and the lamb chops were getting cold. Y/N hated eating dinner alone, but she didn't have a choice. She and Reiner didn't have any kids, so she was stuck eating dinner by herself. Y/N sat there, picking at her mashed potatoes, watching YouTube on her phone like an iPad kid.
Y/N just knew she was going to chew Reiner's head off when he got inside because he was late for dinner again! With no warning, either. Y/N was too tired to even think about how she was going to start the conversation. She was upset with him because the little time they could spend together was at night and at the dinner table.
Reiner came back into the house at 9 o'clock. Y/N was already doing her nightly routine and preparing herself for some late-night work before going to sleep. Reiner came into her office nervously, smiling, with some flowers. Y/N saw Reiner with the flowers in his hand in her mirror, and she rolled her eyes.
"You didn't call or text me," Y/N said nonchalantly, but deep down she was pissed. "I had to catch up on some things at the office, and then I had dinner with Bertholdt" Reiner replaced the old flowers he bought Y/N yesterday with the new flowers he bought today. "You could have told me that, but you didn't, so now you can just get out of my face."
"I'm sorry."
The silence between Reiner and Y/N was so thick you could cut it with a knife. Y/N was very upset with Reiner. She got that he was trying, but the miscommunication was starting to piss her off, especially because she cared for her marriage. But Y/N couldn't deal with it tonight, so she decided to suck it up, do her work, and go to bed.
Next Morning — 10:05 a.m
Y/N had 27 missed calls from Gigi and 15 missed calls from Fatima. Y/N was very confused, but she tried to drive as fast as she could to the office to see what was going on. Y/N was too caught up in having intimate time with Reiner, so she lost track of time, but now her mind was back on business. Gigi and Fatima made it seem like something was going to blow up at the office.
When Y/N got there, she saw why Gigi and Fatima sent her the S.O.S. The Secret Service was deep in the office; they were everywhere. Y/N was so confused, but when she stepped into her main office, she saw him.
The president himself and all his glory. His teeth glistened as he smiled at Y/N. But he wasn't a stranger to Y/N; they actually go way back, and you can tell by the energy in the room.
"Hello, Darling." He smiled, and Y/N already knew what was about to happen next.
