"Good morning Hank" I say walking into work Monday morning. He looks up from what he was doing and smiled.
"Morning" he says as I put on my lab coat, going over to see what he's doing. I look into the microscope.
"Oh looking at some Nidovirales are we?"I ask and he chuckles. "What?
"Oh nothing, just If I saw you on the street without knowing you I wouldn't even think that you could even pronounce that word let alone use it in a sentence." He says and I look at him darkly.
"Wow Hank, stereotype much?" I ask sarcastically.
"I didn't mean it in a bad way... It's just women who look like you usually are not very smart" he says. I look at him with a glare. "Not that they can't be... Ugh I'm just digging my own grave aren't I?" He asks and I nod sitting at my desk getting to work ignoring my blabbering idiot of a friend.
-Time Skip-
After working for a while my boss comes in with a delighted smile plastered into his face. I look at him with a smile on my face "well good morning sir, you look be in a good mood" I say and he nods.
"Well yes today is a very special day." He says and I look at him confused " I have agreed to take in some mutants and they are to help the CIA find Sebastian Shaw who I guess is trying to start a war..." I stop listening when I Hear that he was bringing in mutants. Other mutants, my kind. He finally finished talking and I zone back in.
"That's great sir..." I say faking a big smile, " If they would be up to it I would love to get some blood samples to study see what is mutated in their genes" I say and he nods still smiling. He pats me on the shoulder and begins the walk past me. "Um sir... If you don't mind me asking when are these mutants coming?" I ask and he looks at his watch them back to me.
"They will show up in about 10 minutes so We must prepare" He says scurrying off going to do God knows what. I plop down in my chair and sigh putting. My head into my hands.
"What's wrong Jessica? Aren't you excited? I mean we are meeting more like us" he asks, and I shake my head looking up.
"Exactly we are meeting more like us. What happens when he finds out that we are part of them, we could loose our jobs, you know how mutants are viewed. How are you not scared?" I ask
"Because you know him. Did you see how excited he was? We would not loose our jobs, if anything he would give us a damn raise." He says chuckling trying to cheer me up.
"Yeah" I chuckle. I stand up and take off my lab coat. "I'm going to take my lunch break, I don't want to be here when they get here" I say and Hank nods understanding. Before I walk off he gives me a hug and whispers in my ear telling me that it will be ok. I nod grabbing my jacket leaving the building heading to the nearest restaurant.
-Time Skip-
My break is almost up and I am rushing back so I'm not late. I get to the building and I run inside already being 3 minutes late. I quickly run past people running up the stairs. I make it and look around to see no one there. Thank god. I take off my coat putting my lab coat back on. I sit down and start doing paperwork. I look around wondering where Hank is but I don't worry about it and quickly go back to my work. I was so focused on my work that I didn't even realise that someone had walked into the room, until they clear their throat. I turn around to see a very handsome man leaning in the doorway. He was tall, slender and has short brown hair. "oh hello. Can I help you with something?" I ask being professional. I have never seen him before so he must be a visitor.
"Yes can you help me figure out why you are in this dark room alone?" He says in a very flirtatious tone. I giggle a little and look up.
"Well that's simple I'm working" I say twirling my chair towards him. "Anything else?" I ask leaning back studying him carefully
"Yes." He says and I look at him urging him to go on. "Is a beautiful woman like yourself with a man?" He asks and I chuckle blushing slightly.
"Me? No. I don't have time for men. And before you begin to flirt with a woman you should at least introduce yourself" I say getting out of my chair grabbing paperwork going to the copier.
He chuckles lightly and walks away from where he was leaning making his way over to me. He extends a hand towards me and I shake it lightly "Erik." He says and I smile
"Jessica, but you can call me Jess" I say. "So Erik. What brings you to this CIA building?" I ask and he chuckles.
"It's kind of a long story" he says
"I've got plenty of time" I say and he smirks.
"Well I'm here to kill Sebastian Shaw a evil ,evil man" he says and I freeze after hearing that.
"Sebastian Shaw you say?" He nods " Are you by chance one of the mutants ?" I ask and his smirk goes away.
"Yes..why are you afraid?" He asks. I shake me head.
"I'm scared of many thinks Erik. But you are not one of them." I say grabbing the papers I made placing them on my desk neatly. I walk over to the door. "It was nice to meet you Erik Lensherr" I say with a smirk.
"H-how ?"
"Did I know your last name? You have your tricks and I have mine." I say walking out of the room leaving him there alone.
