Double 0 Idiot

Chapter Part 14- It's not all about you

A few weeks past without problem, which meant that something was building up, at least that was what my intuition told me. Maintaining somewhat of a routine at work. The murder case was still taking place in the background, with the undercover officer chosen, it didn't take long to set up her identity, background, where she lived even her job as a receptionist at a local post office. Officer Jones was given specific instructions to keep herself closed off and to keep an eye out for the murderer. Some of the beta team were beginning to doubt my theory that he would show up, but I was certain he should have showed up by now, otherwise why did the girls seem to not show signs of struggle? It didn't make sense. Rosa said I shouldn't be discouraged, it was my first case, maybe I was just simply wrong and there was nothing wrong with that. I guess I was so sure. Nevertheless everything else was fine, it was approved by the captain, who happened to be Zane's dad. Speaking of Zane, we were also maintaining a 'somewhat' routine, and by routine I mean simply flirting and taking no action whatsoever. And by action I mean come on he should have kissed me by now! I did it already, albeit by accident and both time a little out of it, but twice... TWICE. He should have made a move by now, right? Or was I seeing something that wasn't there. David had been a little off since our first encounter but we were still trusted comrades, he helped me with a few smaller cases and vise-versa. Rosa and I were growing closer by the day, she was my true friend soul-mate. We were exactly the same, sort- of, we have the same humour and I can easily talk to her but she is a like a more dark twisted version, although I tend to hide that part of myself she's not afraid to flaunt it.  

"What about this one?"- Rosa asks, snapping me out of my mental dialogue and bringing me back to the station coffee room. She holds her phone out at me with the new popular dating app open, 'CupidsLove'.

"Hmmm, he seems a little too into himself, you see the all the topless pics? He just wants a quick fuck, nothing else."- I state what I assumed was obvious. 

"Damn I'm glad you're my friend Aiy, psychoanalysing the fuck boys for me."- She says as she swipes right. I arch an eyebrow at her.

"What? I didn't say I wasn't into fuck boys. I'm not looking for love Aiy, I'm looking for straight up sex."- Rosa states bluntly, making me choke on my coffee, to be honest I shouldn't be surprised at this point. 

"What about you, huh?"

"What about me?"- I ask genuinely confused.

"Hang on you aren't actually thinking about waiting around for Zane are you? He has had his time to ask you out, he hasn't yet, you can't wait around forever!"- I knew Rosa was right but I still had hope, maybe he just didn't feel the same, I had to move on. 

"But you see the thing is, I've never dated anyone."- I confess, embarrassed of my inexperience. 

"*GASP* Really? I had no Idea!"- Rosa exasperates, with obvious sarcasm. 

"Is it that obvious?"

"Dude, you practically scream 'Virgin Mary'."

"OW, thath hurth my feelingths"- I reply with in an equal amount of sarcasm. 

Rossa takes my phone and starts fiddling with it, normally I don't care when people go through my phone, I have nothing to hide. But somehow I knew Rose was up to no good. 

"What are you doing there?"- I try leaning over the table to see what she's doing but she quickly gets up and starts running around the coffee room, good thing no one was here yet, it was early morning and it seemed the only time me and Rosa could catch up since we were always busy. 

"OH... nothing, just making you a 'CupidsLove' profile. Oooo this is a really cute picture of you, and this and this. Aiy you're going to have sooo many matches if I have anything to do with it."- Rosa continues talking and typing while I chase her around the room.
