Time: Recipe For Turnabout

----------------

"Maggey, I still think that you shouldn't be too hard on Gumshoe. He's just trying to tell you he likes you!"

"I've tried being gentle with him, (Y/n)! He just won't listen! I tell him, I'm not interested and then he just keeps coming back! He is literally a boomerang!"

"Now that's a good metaphor. Anyway, I have to go, just try and be a bit nicer to him ok?"

"I'll try. But if he keeps asking then I might lose my cool."

"Good luck tomorrow," I spoke before walking out the visitor's room and the detention centre. I walked back to the precinct to see Gumshoe looking deflated like a balloon, "Hey Gumshoe! How are ya doing?"

"Hey, (Y/n)! I'm good. How are you?"

"I'm good, just got back from visiting Maggey actually. I hope Mr Wright can get her free."

"I know Maggey wouldn't do something like that. I just know it!"

"Anyway, bye Gumshoe! Got to go!" I spoke before running off, trying to contain my tears.

-------------------

I was sitting in the break room swirling a cup of coffee in my hand, it having gone cold, when the door opened, "(Y/n)? What are you doing here all alone?"

I looked up to see the person who entered, "Oh hi Ema. I was just thinking."

"Is it the Gumshoe situation again?" I nodded, "Yes, I just don't want him to be hurt. Maggey keeps rejecting him, yet he'll bounce right back up and ask her out again! It just not fair. Why can't he just give up with Maggey? I understand that she's my sister, but it's just not right that she keeps treating Gumshoe so badly."

"I understand what you mean. If I were you, I'd just go and tell him how you feel."

"You mean just walk right up to him and say; 'Hey Gumshoe! Stop persuing my sister because I love you!' Like that's ever going to happen."

"Please, (Y/n). For me? Both you and Maggey will be happier of you do tell him."

  "Fine, I'll tell him tomorrow after Maggey's trial."

"That's my girl!" Ema squealed before taking the cup of cold coffee from my hand and washing it up. She came back over and pulled me up, pushing me towards the door.

It was done! Maggey was free again. Mr Wright had proved her innocence yet again. I was so thankful. I was waiting in the lobby for them to come out of the courtroom and when they did I ran up to Maggey hugging her, "You're free! I'm so glad!" I squealed before starting to softly cry on her shoulder. "Please, never let yourself get arrested again! I could never live without my little sister!"

"It's ok, (Y/n). You're fine. Calm down," Maggey spoke rubbing my back, "Shh, it's ok." I eventually calmed down removing myself from her shoulder and wiping my tears before making my way to Mr Wright, "Thank you. Once again, you've proved my sister's innocence again and for that, I will be eternally grateful," I spoke before hugging him, "Thank you!"

"You're welcome, (Y/n). Just doing my job."

I broke away and turned round to see Gumshoe approaching us, "Congratulations Maggey! I knew you'd be free!"

"Thanks for all the help in there Dick!"

"Maggey what did we talk about?" I asked.

"Right, thank you Detective. I wouldn't be free if it wasn't for you."

"Maggey! You're so sweet!"

"But, I'm still not interested," she finished making Gumshoe deflate again.  It was then that I heard Ema's voice in my head, "You better tell him, after the trial. Or I'll never forgive you!"  You're right Ema. I walked over to Gumshoe and placed a hand on his shoulder, "Gumshoe can I talk to you for a minute please?"

"Oh, sure, Pal! What do you need?"

"I meant alone," I replied dragging him out the lobby, "I know you won't feel the same, but I'vehadacrushonyouforareallylongtimeandwheneveryou-"

"(Y/n), you don't need to say any more. It's always been you I've liked. I was just trying to mask my feelings for you by pursuing Maggey. I understand that wasn't a good idea."

"It's ok, Gumshoe," I spoke, leaning up and pecking him on the lips, "Love you."

"I love you too, (Y/n)."
