Well the good news was Maya was finally siting at her desk again, the bad news was that's all she could do.

She walked into headquarters with everyone's eyes on hers. She had a few welcome backs and some people smile at her as she walked past the halls, but for the main part everyone was whispering behind her back. Maya rolled her eyes, it's like she was in high school again.

Maya set her stuff down on the floor beside her desk and noticed that she was the very first one to get here, even Josh wasn't here yet. She looked at her watch and saw that she was a half hour early. She widened her eyes in surprised but decided to sit down and catch up on her paperwork.

About ten minutes in she heard laughter coming from outside of the elevators letting her know that people had just gotten here. She looked behind her to see Farkle and Smackle immediately drop each other's hands as they come to where the desks were. Maya narrowed her eyebrows at them as Fakrle said goodbye to Smackle and she walked down the hall to get to her tech room. Maya smirked as Farkle came into the room and sat down beside her at his desk.

"Morning Maya." Farkle told her as he avoided eye contact.

"Farkle." She acknowledged him. Farkle got to work on his paper work as Maya stared him down while swinging herself from left to right in her chair. She could tell that Fakrle was getting uncomfortable with her staring as he started fidgeting in his seat and shaking his leg up and down. Maya smirked as she watched him move his fingers and ten eventually turn around and glare at her.

"Would you stop that!" He demanded. Maya smiled as she sat up in her seat and threw her pen on her desk.

"When were you going to tell me about you and Smackle?" She asked. Farkle froze before shaking his head.

"I don't know what you're talking about." He told her while looking back down at his paper work. Maya rolled her eyes.

"Come on, Fakrle. It's like you've forgotten who you're talking to." She told him. Farkle breathed out a frustrated sigh before looking at Maya.

"You can't tell anyone. Not even Josh." He whispered. Maya smiled.

"Why would I tell Josh?" She asked him. Farkle shook his head.

"Look it just happened last night. She came to my house to look over the recent case and it started to rain so I invited her to stay for the night and we..." He trailed off causing Maya to smirk as she knew what he was implying.

"Well it's about time." She said causing Farkle to roll his eyes before smiling.

Suddenly it started to get really noisy as everyone started coming into the office room talking.

"Maya!" Zay exclaimed as he came over and fist bumped her. "It's about time you came back, we've been drowning without you." He told her as he sat down. Maya smiled.

"I can tell, this place is a pig stall." She said as she threw a paper airplane at Zay. Everyone welcomed Maya back and they all fell back into conversation like nothing happened.

"Maya, a word." Josh said as he walked past the group and into his office.

"Maya Hunter to the principals office." Zay said into his cuffed hands to make his voice sound different. Maya looked over and stuck her tongue out at him before going to Josh's office. She closed the door behind her and sat down in the chair across from him. He looked up at her and handed her a piece of paper.

"This is your schedule for physical therapy. You will be doing this every day for an hour until your arm is completely healed. Once you get the clearance you can go back into the field." He told her. Maya nodded her head and looked over the times. Her first appointment was in thirty minutes. "I want you working here with Smackle in the tech room helping us out from there until you do get clearance." Josh findings causing Maya to smile. It would give her time to talk with Smackle about Farkle.

"Yes sir." She said. "Anything else?" She asked him. He nodded his head.

"Don't call me sir again." He stated. Maya chuckled before nodding her head.

"Josh, thanks for helping me out." Maya told him. "It hasn't been too terrible having you back as my boss." She told him quietly. Josh smiled and nodded his head.

"Get back to work Agent Hunter." Josh told her. Maya nodded her head before exiting the office and going back to hers. Suddenly another knock came. "Come in!" Josh yelled out. Lucas opened the door and came in and sat down.

"May I ask you a personal question?" He asked Josh. Josh raised his eyebrows before nodding his head for him to continue.

"Did you come back for the job offer or for Maya?" Lucas asked him catching Josh completely off guard.

"Are you asking me because you're curious or because your wife is tired of not getting an answer from me and has asked you to ask?" Josh asked amused. Lucas smiled.

"For Riley, but also because I'm a little curious." He told him truthfully. Josh nodded his head.

"I came back for the job." Josh told him. Josh knew that Lucas was shocked by his answer. "But I would be lying if I said that Maya wasn't the first thing that came into my mind as soon as I had been offered." Josh continued. This made more sense to Lucas as he nodded his head.

"Does she know about it?" He asked.

"Lucas, please tell my niece to mind her own business." Josh said causing Lucas to chuckle.

"She would say that Maya was her business." Lucas retorted. Josh laughed.

"Maya and I are working through our issues, let's just leave it at that." Josh told him. Lucas smiled before getting up.

"Just so you know, I think that Maya is still in love with you." Josh snapped his head up only to see Lucas already out of the room.
