notes; I don't own the Office, obviously.
Also, I began writing this near the beginning of season six, so a lot of things are off.. David Wallace is still here, there's no Jo, and Dunder Mifflin doesn't belong to Sabre. Sorry if it throws you off or anything.
Each chapter is a different character's point of view. (:
KEVIN
Kevin Malone glared at his bright computer screen. All the numbers swirled around in his brain. Being an accountant sucked. Also, it was boring. Sigh.
His career dream was to be the owner of a big candy company. That way, he could be rich and eat all the candy he wanted. But that dream was far away. Right now, he was stuck adding up numbers for Dunder Mifflin Scranton.
Without taking his eyes off the screen, Kevin stuck his hand into the glass candy jar he kept beside his accounting books. The candy jar held something different every year. This year, it was M&Ms. He loved the different colors and the crunch the candies made as his teeth bit into them. The hard coating on the outside prevented Kevin's fingers from getting sticky with melted chocolate, which also made him happy.
There was a clunking sound as Kevin's fingernails hit the glass bottom. His fingers searched around for M&Ms, but there were none. Finally taking his eyes off the computer to glance at the jar, Kevin realized in horror that all of his delicious colorful coated candies were gone.
"Guys," Kevin declared to the other accountants, "My M&Ms are gone. Somebody must have stolen them!"
Angela Martin gave him a disgusted look and went back to work.
Oscar Nunez sighed. "Kevin, you ate them all," he said without looking up.
"No I didn't."
"Yes you did. This morning."
"No, Oscar, I did not." Kevin didn't like being told he was wrong. So he didn't really like Oscar, who told him he was wrong on a daily basis.
Oscar sighed and shook his head while Kevin pondered over what to do next. "I'm going to go tell Toby," he announced.
Toby Flenderson was the Human Resources, or HR, rep. He was a pretty nice guy, and everybody in the office liked him. Well, besides the regional manager, Michael Scott. Michael hated Toby with a passion. He never really had a reason why, though. There had been rumors about it before, but those died down faster than a fire in a blizzard.
Toby was sharpening a pencil as Kevin approached. "Hey Kevin," he greeted with his small Toby smile.
Kevin did not return the nice gesture. He got straight to the point. "A crime has been committed in the office," he said, very seriously. "I am the victim."
Toby chuckled, just a tiny bit. "What is it this time, Kevin?" Kevin had claimed many ridiculous things many, many times before.
"Somebody stole my M&Ms!" Kevin replied with a pout. "They are all gone, Toby. All gone."
At this, Toby Flenderson almost laughed out loud. "Kevin, when I came in this morning, there were about 20 pieces left in your candy jar. I even told you, 'Hey Kevin, looks like your running out of M&Ms. Better go get more the next time you're at the grocery store'. Remember that?"
Kevin shook his head.
"You never told me that, Toby. Don't lie to me, this isn't funny. Somebody has stolen my candy and I'm not going to do any work until the criminal is caught and put in jail forever. This joke you have just attempted has made you one of the prime suspects."
Kevin stood up and left. Toby just smiled. That sort of abnormal thing happened every single day at Dunder Mifflin Scranton.
