Hey everyone! Thanks for reading! Enjoy!
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________

It was a very tense afternoon in the office. Everyone had been trying their best to hide Maya's case file from everyone else while trying to keep it from interfering with other cases that they were on. Josh had given Farkle orders to keep in touch with Smackle and helping her with tracking down David Smith.

Lucas seemed to be most relunctant out of everyone. Josh knew that he hadnt told anything to Riley, who not only was six months pregnant, but also had a two year old at home that she was looking after. Riley had called Josh what seemed like every day at least ten times to ask her if he had heard anything from Maya.

Lucas had been the one to ask that nothing be said to Riley unless he was the one that said it. He didnt want to get her hopes up on being able to find anything out, and in Lucas's book, no news was good news. But Josh knew that he was just as worried as the rest of them when it came to Maya. He was just trying to keep a mask on in front of everyone.

Farkle seemed to be spending all his free time with Smackle down in her office, abandoning his own paperwork and case files to go through. Of course, he was Farkle, so he had about less than half on his desk than the others anyway because of how much paperwork he actually does.

On slow weekdays when they dont have a case, he's usually trying to keep up with Zay and Maya who almost always try to sneak more and more of their paperwork onto Farkle's desk. Farkle always laughed and took joy in handing it back to them and rubbing in their faces that he was almost always caught up.

Now Farkle would do pretty much anything to have Maya back at her desk. Even if it meant doing half of her paperwork for her.

Josh sighed as he filled out more and more paperwork that had snuck its way onto his desk when his door slammed open and he jumped up with a start. There in his office was a very angry, very pregnant Riley Matthews.

"Niece." Josh greeted her, his eyes still wide. Josh brought his hand over to his phone and hit one of the buttons. "Smackle, if you see Lucas can you tell him to meet me in my office please?" Josh asked her. He didnt wait for the reply as he hung up and rose him self out of his seat. "Its good to see you." He smiled slightly.

"I didnt come here for pleasantries, Joshua and I think we both know that!" She glared at him. Kaylee was in her stroller looking up at her mother in wonder. Josh sighed.

"I dont know anything." He told her. Riley's glare deepened.

"You and Lucas both suck at lying! Now you're not the only one in this family that can observe someone's behavior! My best friend is missing and I want to know where the heck you put her!" Riley yelled.

"At least shut the door if you're going to yell so the whole building can hear you!" Josh snapped at her. Riley scoffed.

"I am six months pregnant and I have a child who is currently occupying the terrible two's stage! My feet are swollen, my back is killing me, and my dear husband is not answering his phone! And I know you dont have a case right now, because every single time you have a case Lucas or Maya one always calls me to tell me!" Riley told him. Josh sighed as he got up and closed the door behind Riley. He closed the blinds to the window that looked out into the rest of the priesting.

"Riley, you shouldn't even be knowing about any case that we have or go on. You cant yell that type of thing and especially to me because Lucas and Maya could lose their jobs." He told her trying to get her to calm down. Riley let out a huff of annoyance.

"Your great niece wants to see you." She told him with a snarky attitude. Riley took great pleasure on making Josh feel older than what he is by emphasizing 'great niece' every time he saw Kaylee. Josh glared at her as a knock sounded on the door of his office.
