Jake was in his room, laying in bed, wearing his dark blue hoodie and gray sweatpants, on his silver laptop, looking for a book to read on Amazon.


As he clicks on the description for "The Sword of Truth"  series, Bridgette walks in through the auto door of his room, since every room in this base has high-tech doors. She stood against the nearby wall.


"Hey, Jake." Bridgette said.


Jake looked up at Bridgette, and smiled with his lips, "Hey Bridge."


"You wanna come downstairs and watch Netflix with the rest of us? Stranger Things and Beyond are our top two choices right now." She asked


"I'm a little tired, I was training all day, and had some researching to finish up for AP U.S. History." Jake said.



"And you read a BOOK in your free time?" Bridgette says with a chuckle.



She walks over to Jake's bed and sits down on it beside him.

"Could you give yourself a life for at least an hour or two? David isn't THAT strict with the homework he gives us." She added.



"Hey, come on now, I have a life." Jake declared.



"Jake, when we went to LA last month with Nikki, you didn't come with us to Hollywood, you didn't come with us to In-N-Out Burger, instead you stayed in the hotel room catching up on the History Channel." Bridgette said.


"At least it was some sort of entertainment." Jake remarked.



Bridgette looks at Jake with an unamused facial expression, and Jake closed his laptop.

"Okay, fine." He says as he gets up from the bed.



Bridgette got up from his bed as well and puts her arm over him as they both walk out of his room, down into the Screening Room of the base, with Trent, Eddie, and Nikki down there as well.

"Hey, Jake's here!" Trent exclaimed, "And we thought you were always gonna be that one odd, lonely, boring person of the team." He added with a grin.


"Thanks, Trent." Jake replied with a fake smile.


"It feels like we've been Netflix surfing for a year," Eddie chimes in,
"I've only watched the first episode of  Stranger Things  so we're going with that." Eddie adds as he uses the remote to press play.



As Jake and Bridgette sit down next to each other on the couch with the others, David walks inside. "Time for bed." He announced.



"What?! But what we literally just turned it on." Trent yelled back.


"Oh, wow," David realized, "Then perfect timing." He added with a smile.


"But it's Saturday night, David." Nikki said.



"I'm aware, but I have a briefing that I'll need to... well, BRIEF to you guys tomorrow morning." David replied.



"Ew, missions, so not happening," Nikki responds as she stands up from the couch.
"Wake me when it's Monday night, The Bachelorette's gonna be on." She adds as she walks out of the Screening Room and past David.

Nikki barely goes on missions, so it wouldn't have been much of a difference whether she came with them or not.


"Four of you, hit the showers and head to bed." David demands in a pleasant, yet assertive tone.



A/N: Thanks so much for reading the first chapter. It might've seemed somewhat slow. But I wanted to start it off with some type of feel-good beginning, and to introduce each character. Thanks, again. Keep reading!
