Being One Of The Top Three

CHAPTER 8

Chapter 8

"Beep. Beep. Beep" My alarm clock awakes me.

"Ugh. Good morning to me" I say rubbing my eyes.

I have a quick shower and dress into spy clothes. I put on a T-shirt with only straps that show my belly button and some very tight jeggings. A black denim jacket and some high heels.

I go downstairs and have a quick breakfast. Before I think I haven't got a transport to take me, Tommy appears.

"Hey" He says rubbing his head "I wanted to wish you a happy first mission"

"Thanks" I answer as I pass him a glass of water and a pair of pills.

"Rough night at the end?" I ask.

"Hm... We drunk our asses yesterday and..." He abruptly stops.

"And?" I ask as I feel there is something he just remembered from yesterday.

"And I...I... kissed a guy from house two." He says reddening.

"OH MY GOD!!" I explode. "You like him! Had you met him before? Why and how did you kiss him? Why didn't you wake me up? OH MY GOD!!!!"

"Nora" He groans covering his ears.

"Sorry" I say to him sheepishly. "But you will tell me EVERYTHING afterwards" I say much more silently.

He nods.

"Nora, just get my car before you arrive late okay?" He passes me the keys.

I hum a slight yes. I go to the enormous garage and get his car. While I go to the HQ, I phone Jacob to tell him I still don't have a tattoo to get in. He tells me he's going to wait for me downstairs and I thank him.

I arrive there and spot Jacob immediately.

"Hey Jacob!"

"Uh... um..." He splutters while observing my outfit.

"Is anything wrong?" I ask smirking as I realize I had an effect on him.

"Uh... No, no. Everything good" He says turning a bit red. He scratches his neck. Nervous tick surely.

"Oh. Okay" I smirk. "Are we going in?"

"Yeah" He takes his S.A.U.K's card and swipes it on the monitor. A picture of him appears. The rays come out of the monitor and goes past Jacob's face. The monitor makes the irritable approving sound and the green tick appears. 'Welcome Agent Jacobsen' it says underneath.

The lift doors open and he presses number two. Another little laser inspects the fingerprint and it approves of it.

We reach the second floor and a new monitor appears and Jacob swipes his tattoo and the lift doors open showing second floor.

I see a glance of his tattoo and ask him for it.

"Yeah. I really like it. It's a key" He shows me it. It's beautiful and very detailed.

"Wow. But why a key?" I ask. We are walking through corridors and people are still bowing at me and looking scared.

"Because I'm good at keeping secrets"

I laugh.

"It's true!" He exclaims.

"Yeah right" I say laughing.

"Look. I saw the real you. I saw everyone in this agency before going to the box and I could blackmail Ms. Hawthorne for anything thanks to that. I know all the money that comes in. I know everything! I'm Ms. Hawthorne's personal secretary! I have to keep secrets and I'm good doing that so I have a key as a tattoo because that's my best skill" He answers.
