Chris Morgan's POV

"This is the 27th time that you have lost your paperwork Chris. Now if you don't get it in on time…things will go down. Then it's going to be…you know… for you." Miss. Renalds said. It is amazing how she initiates fear into people. I'm practically trembling. I cracked a smile from the thoughts running through my mind. "Mr. Morgan, if you don't take your paperwork seriously then you could…yeah…you know." I immediately made my face look like I was taking this as seriously as Miss. Renalds takes her job. I put my elbow on the table that was between us and leaned on it. I stared into her dual brown eyes and put as much authority as I could into the look I was giving her.

"Miss. Renalds I take my paperwork as seriously as I would take a black market dealer in the Middle East. I promise I will get you your paper work on Mission Forty-Nine just as soon as I can, but for the mean time," I slide her a manila folder "the lest I can do is give you this." I watched as she eyed the folder like there was a bomb in it. "Now if you will excuse me I have a very important meeting that I just have to go to. Until next time Miss. Renalds, I do enjoy are little chats." I then high tailed my way out of there. At this point Miss. Renalds had picked up the folder and I so did not want to be in the room when she opened it.

I closed the door, and then ran around to the corner of her office to meet Joe. As I turned the corner I almost ran into someone who was glued to a computer screen. As I quickly avoided them I said a hasty "sorry" over my shoulder then jumped into the air vent Joe was currently occupying. As I slide in next to him I asked, just slightly out of breath "has she opened it yet?"

Joe was laughing like there was no tomorrow. Although seeing as he had to laugh silently his face was turning a very bright shade of red. At the sight of this I started to laugh as well. I let out a little chuckle then immediately turned my eyes to the vent that led into Miss. Renalds office to make sure she didn't hear.

"I have never seen Miss. Renalds as shocked as she was when you talked to her like that. It was like you were trying to, oh I don't know, seduce her or something. I guess that's how you got Rachel I take it?" Joe said in between his fits of laughter, in hushed tones so Miss. Renalds wouldn't hear.

"You'll never know, Joe." I gave him a side glace with a little hint of laughter in my eyes. My grin that I had still kept from when I was in Miss. Renalds office grew wider, that was until I felt a sharp pain in between my ribs. I looked over at the source of my pain and saw Ann. Damn how did that girl get into the vent without me or Joe noticing? I gave her a look that said "hello that hurt!" She just rolled her eyes in response, and then pointedly looked down at Miss. Renalds to tell us to shut up and watch the show unfold. So we did.

Miss. Renalds was shaking the folder like that would let her know what was in it. Then she put her big long nose to the folder and took a big sniff. She closed her eyes like she was content and had a big goofy smile on her face then muttered "it smells like paper. Chris must have done his paperwork!" My grin got wider while Joe and Ann tried to contain their laughter. Miss. Renalds eyes got this greedy look in them and then her hands flew to the top to open the folder. She closed her eyes and reached in. then pulled out the paper inside. She opened her eyes slowly and deliberately and took in what she saw.

Thank you for being so understanding Miss. Renalds. I don't think you know how much I really appreciate it. Because you are so understanding and kind I have given you five hundred dollars as a sign of my thanks. –CM

As she read the note her eyes got hard and she pursed her lips so that it looked like she had a thin line for a mouth. When she finished the note her eyes turned greedy again and her hands dug hungrily into the folder for the money that was promised in the note. When her hands met paper she smiled a devilish smile and pulled the money out.

Number of times Miss. Renalds has called Agent Morgan into her office to talk with him about his paperwork: 27.

Number of times Agent Morgan has avoided going to met Miss. Renalds about his paperwork: 18.

Number of times Agents Morgan, Solomon, Cameron, Goode and Adams have "punked" Miss. Renalds: 11.

Number of minutes Miss. Renalds stared at the bright pink monopoly one hundred dollar bills that were in the manila folder Agent Morgan had given Miss. Renalds in astonishment: 6 and 43 seconds.

Number of minutes Agents Morgan, Solomon and Adams laughed silently in the air vent above Miss. Renalds office after Miss. Renalds started at the monopoly money: 11 and 29 seconds.

Joe, Ann and I all tumbled out of the air vent laughing our heads off and rolling on the floor when Rachel rounded the corner, her belly coming around first. I stared at her amused face and wonder how she could look so beautiful even when she was five months pregnant with our child. I got up and smiled at her and gave her a hug then rubbed her belly while I asked "did you get it all on tape?"

Rachel gave me a look then said "of course I did, what kind of spy would I be if I didn't?" I just chuckled and smiled and gave her cheek a peck before I said "good cause you know Amy, Brian and Abby will all want to see it too." Rachel laughed and said "I know."

"Where is Amy anyway?" Ann asked.

"She is going to met Abby and Brian at the airport. They are getting back from their mission today and Amy still hasn't told him that she is pregnant yet." I replied.

Ann laughed and said "Brian's going to flip; you know he is going to want to make the kid into some sort of spy robot. He is going to make him go to Blackthorne and then he is going to have that stupid smirk plastered all over his face because his child is the best. It's going to go to his head." Ann said with a defiant huff. All of us laughed at Ann's little speech except Joe who had an annoyed look on his face that was directed at Ann.

"What is wrong with Blackthorne Ann?" Joe said with a sly smile on his face.

"Oh nothing, unless you like coming in second place. Face it Joe, Blackthorne always comes in second right behind Gallagher." Ann said while cocking a hip and placing her hand on it. Joe opened his mouth to say something, but Ann beat him to it. "Yeah, that's what I thought." Ann said then she turned around and swayed her hips all the way down the hall until she came to the corner where she promptly turned around and winked at us before walking off.

I turned to look at Joe and saw he had a giddy smile on his face and his eyes were staring off into space. I turned to look at Rachel who looked at me, and we both knew that Joe had fallen for Ann. Joe, Brian and I had been friends for as long as I can remember, but when we joined the CIA we learned about Gallagher and we met Rachel, Abby, Amy and Ann. The moment I was paired with Rachel on an mission I knew that I wanted to spent my time with her and then that eventually grew and grew and one day I asked her to marry me and she agreed and now we are expecting a beautiful baby girl.

Brian's story is almost exactly like mine. He met Amy, fell in love, got married and now Amy is pregnant with a baby boy. Although unlike Rachel and me Amy already has her child's life planned out for him. Zach (yes she has already picked the name for her kid) will go to a normal school while Brian and Amy secretly train him to be a spy, he will also go to edict school so that he does not end up exactly like his father, because their defiantly should not be two Brian Goode's in the world. Then he will attend the Blackthorne Institute for Boys and become the best spy in the world, get married to the best female spy in the world have wonderful kids and live happily ever after. Amy is a little obsessive like that, but hey, Rachel and I don't even know if we want our child in the spy life. There is so much danger involved and I don't want my daughter to grow up with fear all of her life.

While Brian and I have our lives with a family ahead of us, Joe does not. Joe has slowly fallen for Ann. Ann, who is erratic and crazy at times, but calm and focused in others. She can be serious and stern, but fun and wild in others. Ann is beautiful, she is blond with deep blue eyes that at times almost look green she has a natural beauty, like Rachel, but Rachel is so much more than Ann, but I could be picking favorites, after all I am in love with Rachel. Ann always seems to want to have a good time and I guess that she I just a happy person in general, but there are always the times where I catch her staring off and her eyes get all watery and her hands clench and get all sweaty, but when I look back at her the next second she is back to normal. It only makes since that Joe fell for her, hell if I didn't have Rachel, I probably would have considered her. The only problem with this little love story is Abby, Rachel's little sister. Abby has been in love with Joe for so long, but Joe is so oblivious to that detail, he only has eyes for Ann.

"Um guys, we need to move, like now." Rachel said in an urgent voice.

I looked down at Rachel and slipped my arm around her waist and asked "Is there a reason for your distress?"

"Yeah, Miss. Renalds is about to walk around the corner in like fifteen seconds." Rachel started to walk away while towing me in her wake. Joe said some obscene words then took off in some random direction, while Rachel pulled me into a near janitor's closet.

"You know, you haven't shown your love for our child in a while…" Rachel trailed off suggestively.

"Well then I better show her how much I really love her." I gave Rachel a smug grin while I put my lips to hers.

Well there ya go. Hope you don't hate it. I just wanted you guys to get a feel for the characters and what is going on in their lives right now.
