"Okay, goodnight!", Heinz Doofenshmirtz said as he closed the door.
He closed the door behind him and began to climb the stairs of the DEI. Tonight was a good night. To night was one of the greatest nights of his life. His online dating had finally given him a stroke of luck as he, or so he believed very firmly in his mind, had found the perfect girl for him. And tonight only showed it even more. It's been some months now since they've dated and even though he's been a dork and hasn't really been able to focus on his evil plans, everything in his world was going...
'Perfect.', his date, Jane, thought to herself as she walked back home. 'It's 12 after 10 and I'm gonna get reamed when I get back home, but even still tonight was...perfect! The only word I can think of for it! Everything went so smoothly. And for once, I feel even better about going home than I ever had.'
Jane walked into her apartment building. It was only a few blocks away from the DEI. She walked up the stairs, came into the room, and paused. She carefully sat her purse down. Slipped off her high heels and crept through the room. She managed to get by the kitchen but her luck ran out.
"There you are!", Carl said as he came around the corner from his bedroom. "I was just about to go to sleep when I thought I heard the door close."
Jane rolled her eyes with a slight smile and sat on the back of the couch as the little unpaid intern began to interrogate her.
"What happened? How come you're so late? You know you still have your day job to hold up and-", Carl began, worriedly.
"Carl.", Jane said haltingly. "We were having a bit too much fun. I'm okay. He's alright. I'm sorry for being 45 minutes late, but you and Monogram have to remember that YOU guys sat me up for this job."
"I know, I know. But Monogram's waiting and I can't keep covering for you like this.", Carl explained.
"Well that's why you let ME handle it then.", she said with a smile and headed to her room.
Jane walked into her bedroom and sat down at her make-up mirror where Monogram's face was, waiting impatiently.
"There you are, Agent P!", Monogram began to bark. "What in the world has been keeping you so late?"
"I'm sorry sir.", the woman replied. "I had to say yes or he'd suspect something. But everything's okay. He's still on about it. And I'm gonna see him again in a couple of nights."
She took off most her jewelry as she spoke and Monogram sighed and rolled his eyes.
"Well then I guess I'll see you in the morning.", he noted. "Good work Agent P. It won't be long now."
"Thank you sir.", she said with a nod. "Good night."
"Night."
They saluted and the mirror turned back to normal. Jane took off her earrings and the room began to spin like it normally did. When it was finally over and the stomach finally settled, Perry the Platypus opened his eyes and looked back around the room. Yup. It's been about half a year since this had become the norm. The platypus went to bed as it began to think of back to the beginning of it all. The day he was assigned this crazy mission of having to play love-doll to Doof at night and still be a platypus fighting for justice in the day. It was a crazy roller coaster that first few days and Perry began to drift off to sleep as the memory settled over his mind.
