Spies In Love

Chapter 4

The sunlight seeped in through the gaps of the curtains and making me aware that I had to wake and face another day in my life.Pushing myself to wake up, I sat up on my bed without the sleep in my eyes being fully gone.I turned and saw Paris all woken up and brushing her teeth. Jeez she can sure wake up early in the morning. On the hand,I was not so much of an early bird.Had too much trouble waking up.It is kind of ironical really that I had trouble sleeping at night and in the morning I could not get up.

After spending some more time staring at nowhere at all and brooding,I finally emerged from my bed as if I just came to the fore victorious after vanquishing the enemy in the battlefront.

"Hey Good Morning sleepyhead!!" Paris greeted me after she finally noticed me.

"Morning!" I greeted back.

"So where'd you go last night?"Oh so she  after all was aware that I came to our dorm late at night after the rather peculiar encounter with  you know my boss last night.

" Just wandering around here and there ." I replied.

"In the dead of night?" Paris arched a perfectly plucked brow at me.

" Yeah I like to call myself the night explorer." I ran my fingers through my hair which currently resembled a bird's nest or a bowl of spaghetti. I don't know man which one.

Paris stared at me in amusement and then started shaking her head and walked away.

I entered the bathroom and first brushed my hair which seemed to had a mind of it's own and did not want to tamed at any cost.I had numerous numbers of brush which broke into pieces when used to comb my hair.Mum combing my hair was a whole other thing.It was like my hair would just come out from head when she combed it.So I had to just settle with simple braids when going to school.No fancy hairstyle for me! 

After finishing my morning routine which consisted of knowledge and tricks that I gathered from watching a huge number of  Youtube tutorials

Then I took a shower with my favourite bath gel which had an amazing vanilla scent that lasted all day.After getting ready and dressed  I was met with  Paris  who was tying up her hair in a ponytail.

Getting out of the dorm together,we both headed to the atrium hall downstairs where we were supposed to be assigned into groups for missions.

The atrium was full of agents  bursting with plethora of excitement in them and the supervisors were struggling to manage them all.

We went and stood in a corner and Paris went to talk with another agents leaving me all by myself along with my thoughts.

I was looking here and there when my eyes stilled when I found my boss watching me rather intently. My attention was claimed by another human being of the male species when I found him beside me.The male was just shy of six feet but was still taller than me.

Everyone's taller than you . My conscious spoke and I inwardly scowled at her.Not my fault I was so petite!Maybe I am a bit petite and curvier than most girls but I was still able pack a mean punch to anyone that deserved it!That is the thing that matters the most.

I wasn't able to concentrate on his face but when I did eventually I momentarily thought that I was standing infront of a young Leonardo DiCaprio. He had the typical highschool bad boy vibe.His blonde hair fell over his forehead and his blue eyes glistened like the oceans and the seas and had a mischevious twinkle in them.Much opposite than Bastian's eyes which were expresionless with rare emotions that were extremely hard to read. Huh why was I even thinking about my boss and his ever so gorgeous eyes which were like emeralds all of a sudden? He had a grin pasted across his face which gave him more of a boyish vibe and making him look laid-back and easy going.It was easily understood that he was on hell of a charmer and no doubt often used his charm to get what he wanted.He had an average muscular built that was nothing too extraordinary.Unlike a certain someone who is built with a ridiculous number of muscles and seems like an alpha male! No not seems.He is an alpha male.Ugh the thoughts of my ripped boss invading my brain again!!

" What's a pretty girl like yourself doing standing at a deserted corner all by herself?" Ha! Told ya he's a charmer. My conscious said and I agreed.

"Lady.I am a lady.Not a girl anymore."I replied.

"Ah.Sincere apologies milady ." He said and I inwardly rolled my eyes.

"It's fine."

"Taylor.Sebastian Taylor is the name." He extended his sunkissed hand foreward for a shake .

"Aurelia Hughes.Nice to meet you." I shook his hand.

"Pretty lady with an even prettier name.Am I in heaven after dying or what?"He pathetically flirted with me and I visibly rolled my eyes this time.Ugh why do people think that they go to heaven after dying?Heaven is basically Olympus which is Zeus' realm and nobody goes there after dying!Mortals go to The Underworld after they are dead!

The rolling of my eyes amused him even more and his smile widened even more.

"What ye thinking Pretty Lady?"

"You know right this pretty lady has a name ? Call me by that name."

"So Aurelia what are you thinking?" He asked again and this time he emphasized on my name.

"Nothing.Just nervous for my first mission and all.I thought I was ready but I am not. It is kind of overwhelming actually."

"Hey hey it is absolutely fine to be nervous on the first day." He puts both of hands on my shoulder to steer me to him so that I was now facing him.

" We are all human after all and we all have the right to be nervous yeah?So cheer up will ya?He encouraged me and I flashed him a smile and nodded in agreement.

And all of a sudden it felt as if the whole cosmos along with time stopped for a second when I found Bastian's darkened eyes on me and Sebastian.His eyes held anger in them and I was totally shocked.I mean what the hell happened now? Why so suddenly angry?Maybe he is still pissed off because of last night.Yeah that had to be it.I mean what else could be the explanation ? Right?

The supervisor started calling out names.There were two groups and each group had four agents in total.Not every agent was supposed to be in this mission.The first mission was supposed to be comparatively easier than the second one.The second mission was what people would call the real deal.This mission was mainly for the new agents who would be accompanied by the supervisors.And the agents that performed well in the first one would be chosen in the second and the most important and thrilling one.The ones who would not perform well would be kept here and dispatched for mainly guarding the headquarters if unagreeable situations arised.

Another supervisor who is also described to be oustanding in her own right on many occasions.She had a height that could be considered taller than the average woman.

"As you all know this mission will be carried out by two different teams of agents.One of the teams will be under me and the other one will be under Agent Lewis." She started and there were some expressions of excitement were heard across the atrium.

"I will be calling out the names along with the supervisor's name and you all will go to your respective one."

"Hannah Grace to me."

"Sebastian Taylor to Agent Lewis." She called and I gave Sebastian  a smile.

Other names were called out and thankfully me and Paris were put together in a group under Agent Lewis.

" So partner are you ready or not?" Paris asked me.

" I was born ready honey." I replied and both of us went to the group we were assigned to.
