Fifteen awoke to the sounds of Fourteen laughing.
Shuffling around in her bed, she sighed as she tried to get comfortable again to sleep, but her alarm had decided that it was the perfect time for her to get up anyways, unfortunately.
She glanced at the alarm clock on her bedside table.
Hm, 7:30, strange.. he's usually still asleep..
Deciding to finally stand, she had briskly walked to her dresser and got her clothes for the day, opening the door, she stood atop the stairwell.
She might as well ask if he needed to shower before she did, she didn't want the water to be cold either, so she had to ask if he did already regardless.
He still chuckled a little bit still, and he sounded like.. he was talking to someone..?
"Fourteen? Do you need the shower?" She asked, curious as to who this mystery visitor was.
Fourteen stopped laughing and made his appearance at the bottom step, "No, I already used it, I'm ready to go."
"Oh, alright then. Who's here?"
He blinked up at her and shook his head, "Nobody..?"
"Really?" That was strange, she could have sworn he was talking, "Who were you talking to, then?"
Fourteen seemed to tense, "Oh.. just myself.."
Fifteen narrowed her eyes, "About what?"
"Um... I was just.. telling myself some jokes.." He fumbled with his fingers.
This was a red flag, not only was Fourteen talking to himself, he was telling himself jokes?
"...How come?"
"To lighten the mood, that's all.. I'm just a bit nervous today.." Fourteen pulled at his index a little bit, "...about y'know..?"
Fifteen was going to ask him to tell her the truth before she remembered.
He has a doctor's appointment today. Of course!
"Oh, right. I understand.." She mentally kicked herself forgetting such an important thing.
And here she was questioning him as to why he was talking to himself, he was simply stressed and was trying to feel better! The agent forced a smile, "Sorry Fourteen.."
Fourteen frowned, "Do I have to go..?"
Fifteen walked down the rest of the stairs and gently pulled him in for a hug, "Yes, this is mandatory. But they've never hurt you before, correct?"
"No, not really.." He mumbled.
"So there is no reason to worry now is there?"
"Will you be there with me?" Fourteen looked hopeful, that maybe if he could drag Fifteen with him, things would magically be different.
"I cannot." Fifteen sighs, "I have work, tragically. Speaking of which, I need to get ready."
Fourteen's face fell, "But.."
"I promise I'll check in on you as soon as I can." She rushed back up the stairs, heading to the bathroom, "But I still have a job to do."
"Like what?" Fourteen followed her, "I thought there we no clues."
"There is a clue, Sam said that he found evidence of some kind of virus being on the computer. We're going to look at it closely and see if we can trace it back."
Fourteen sighed dejectedly, "Right. Okay."
Fifteen smiled and ruffled his hair, "I'll catch those people who took you, and you won't have to worry about them ever again."
