"Shit..." I muttered to myself as I hopped on my bike, leaving the doctor's surgery and making my way to the prosecutor's office. As I was passing by the Wright Anything Agency, I sighed, seeing the three current members, walking towards me, the younger of the two girls pulling the attorney behind her, as she ran up to me, "(Y/n)!"

I slowed down to a stop so that I wouldn't bump into Trucy and hopped off my bike, "Hiya, Trucy, Athena, Mr Wright."

"Hello to you too, (Y/n)," Mr Wright spoke, smiling at me.

"Back from investigating a case, I'm guessing?" I asked, unclipping my helmet so I could fix a part of my hair that had fallen out of place. Mr Wright nodded, "Yes. What are you up to, (Y/n)? I know Edgeworth said you liked to cycle into work every day, but he mentioned that were normally there before him. Did you sleep in or something?"

"I had a doctor's appointment... Fudge, please don't tell my father, Mr Wright!"

"Why? He'll be worried about you (Y/n)."

"I know, but he doesn't need to know that I was at the doctor. If by any chance he comes to ask you if you've seen me, can you tell him I was investigating?"

"I can try," Mr Wright sighed, "But he'll know you're not on a case at the moment, or are you?"

"I am actually. Got the trial today. I asked Ema to deliver all the evidence to my office as I was unable to investigate the scene myself. I hope you try your best in your case, whoever's leading the defence."

"Thanks, (Y/n)!" Athena smiled, hugging me, "I hope you do your best too!"

I chuckled, feeling my face redden, "T-thank you, Miss Cykes. Well, I better get going," I responded as Athena let me go, and got back on my bike, reattaching my helmet, before saying my goodbyes to the three of them, and restarting my journey, hearing Athena mutter somthing about me calling her by her surname. I snapped myself from my, hopefully unnoticeable, lovestruck daze, and continued cycling towards the prosecutor's office. I stored my bike properly and snuck up to my office quickly, hoping not to get noticed.

Unfortunately, it didn't work, "(Y/n), you fool! Where have you been?!"

I groaned, the second worst person I could have bumped into, after my father himself, "Good morning, Aunt Franziska. I merely was investigating, nothing to worry about."

She gave me a distrusting look, similar to a, 'I know you're hiding something' one, and patted my shoulder, "I see.... Well, I'll let that fool of a father of yours know you've been found. He's had the whole police force on a search for you."

"Of course he has," I muttered, "May I continue on my way now?"

"Yes, I suppose so."

MEANWHILE - NO ONE'S POV

"Daddy... I think (Y/n) is hiding something..."

"Trucy, it's perfectly viable for (Y/n) to have been investigating this morning. What's troubling you?"
