No. 9

Bee attack.

-AT WORK-

I arrived at work to the normal murder scene. It was a much better day at work. Steve and I could focus on writing the episodes. At one point Steve went out to get us a drink from the shop.

So I decided to call Becky.

•PHONE CALL•

"Hello." She said. 

"Hello." I said happily. 

She sounded chipper. Which only made my day better.

"How are you ?" She asked.

"I'm ok. On a break from writing. Steve's gone to the shop. How are you?" I really wanted to know. 

"I'm ok. I decided to go for a run." She sounded tired. 

"Run?" I was surprised. 

She exercises but does not go for runs.

"Yep. It was not an intentional run. I got attacked by bees." She sounded annoyed. 

"You got attacked by bees ?" I knew that there was some sort of story. This girls life is never normal.

"Yep. So now I'm reading normal. Jokes and puns." 

"What really?" 

"YAS ! Just because my boyfriend is Reece Shearsmith doesn't mean I have to have the most sophisticated sense of humour. I can enjoy the dull stuff."

She made me laugh.

"Say that again." I asked. 

"What?"

"Boyfriend."

I loved it. I loved her saying I'm her boyfriend. Calling me her boyfriend.

"Boyfriend."

She said it again. It sent shivers down my spine. I saw Steve returning through the window.

"So what are you going to do with the rest of your day?" I sat back down in my seat. 

"Hmmm I don't know. Probably have a shower after that lovely jog. I might have some fun..."

She knew what she was doing.

"Then who knows. You?"

"Ah. The usual."

"Say hey to Steve for me. At least he makes the usual better."

I turned and saw Steve. He passed me a cup of tea. I took a sip.

"He does indeed. And I will tell him. Try not to be attacked by anymore bees."

Steve looked at me confused.

"Oh don't worry. I'll stop them with my ninja skills..."

She made me laugh. I could see her chopping her hands around. 

"Ok. Then have fun with Steve. I've heard he's a fungi."

I made a cringe sound.

"Oh no."

"Sorry. Bye." She did not at all sound sorry. 

"Bye." I chuckled. 

We stopped the conversation.

-THAT NIGHT-

We laid in bed talking.

"Reece." she asked. 

"Yes."

"When will I get to meet Steve?" She asked me sweetly. 

"Whenever you like." I smiled. 

"Oh really ?" she got very chipper. 

"Yes. I'll tell you what. Why don't we have Steve, Mark and Jeremy and their  partners over."

"That would be great but only if you want to." she bit her lip. 

"Of cause. I'll ask them tomorrow." I kissed her lips. 

"Cool."

She gave me a kiss. We soon headed off to sleep.
