Chapter Ten

Alpha Quinn Danvers

I tapped my pen against the desk, humming happily, as AC/DC came over the radio in my office. My eyes glanced over the paperwork in front of me, but I couldn't focus on. I was in a good mood. No, I was in a great mood.

The pen – which previously was being used for writing – instantly turned into a mini drum stick and my desk the drum kit. "Yes I'm loose, from the noose" I sang along to the radio, as I drummed along, "that's keep me hanging about, I've been looking at the sky".

I leant over and wacked the radio louder. "Forget the hearse 'cause I never die. I got nine lives, cat's eyes, abusin' every one of them and running wild" I yelled. My drumming intensified as the chorus hit. "Cause I'm back, Yes, I'm back. Well, I'm back. Yes, I'm back. Well, I'm back, back. Well, I'm back in black".

The door to my office flew open with a bang. Ken stormed in. "Yes, I'm back in black" he screamed. He began to rock the air guitar, his blonde bangs sweeping into his face. I dived up, the pens forgotten as I went for the classic air drums.

"Back in the back, of a Cadillac. Number one with a bullet, I'm a power pack" Ken sang to me. I sang back.

"Yes, I'm a bang".

"In a gang".

"They've got to catch me if they want to hang" we sang together. We laughed like we were school boys again, as we rocked out. After a few minutes, we dissolved into laughs as the song came to an end. Ken looked at me, as I turned the radio down and grinned like an idiot.

"What?" I laughed, as he continued to look at me weird.

"Nothing, I just ain't heard you laugh like that in a long time" he replied sincerely. "It's good to see you so happy".

I shrugged, still smiling, as I made my way back over to the desk. I straightened the papers as Ken spoke. "I'm assuming this happiness is all about a certain red-head who you took out for lunch earlier?"

"Might do" I muttered, looking away but still not being able to hide my smile.

"Holy shit did you hit that?" he demanded, slamming his hands on my desk and giving me a look I didn't dare interpret.

"Did I 'hit that'? What are you twelve?" I replied, rolling my eyes at him.

"So you did. No wonder you can't keep than damn smile of your face". He punched my shoulder. "Sex during the lunch hour. What do you think you're twenty one again?" he teased.

"I didn't have sex with Ruth today" I said calmly.

"Today? But you have had sex with her?" he laughed. "Don't try your bullshit Alpha techniques on me. I know how you lie without lying. Alpha loop holes. You dog". He laughed warmly, before raising his hand. "High five".

"No. I'm not high fiving you".

"Come on...you know you want to". He jiggled his hand in the air.

"No".

"Go on".

"No".

"Just one little high five?"

I sighed heavily, "idiot". I high fived him begrudgingly as he practically vibrated with happiness. "So what was lunch today then? Your first date as a couple?"

"No" I said firmly. I looked up at his and shook my head, "Ruth and I are not a couple. As much as I would love for her to be my girlfriend, she is not interested in having a relationship with me".
