A/N: Written for a challenge with the prompt 'go on a luxury cruise from hell'
Disclaimer: All mistakes our mine and I own nothing...
"Parker." Eliot whispered, "Quit messing around with the food. We need to get the location of the money that this guy stole. You've done something crazy every night that ruined our chances and I for one want to get off this stupid cruise ship."
Eliot didn't know what they would do if Parker messed up again. They already had enough attention on them the first night at the couple's party when they were trying to dance and she knocked over a speaker and started a fire. The second night she was supposed to break into the suite safe to see if the files containing the information were in there, but her decision to try and get in by rappelling off the side of the ship nearly ended with both of them falling into the water.
"Come on it hasn't been so bad. I mean the food is amazing. You should really try this." Parker said while holding her plate in front of his face.
"Nope." pulling the plate away and setting it on the nearest table only to find that she had already found more food to follow.
"Eliot look the pie has sparklers. I want some," she said tailing the waiter, but before she could get too far he caught up.
"It isn't pie Parker, it's Baked Alaska. They serve it on cruises all the time. Now let's go our mark just walked in."
Before he could do much else she had already moved to the waiter but ended up pulling the dish off the tray too hard and in slow motion it seemed to move towards him hitting him square on the face.
Parker froze trying not to laugh as Eliot began wiping his face with his hand and headed towards the door before the whole room knew what happened.
Before he could get very far Eliot heard the phone Hardiosn set up especially for the trip and saw that it was Nate.
"Hey Nate listen we still haven't managed to find out where he hid the money. We're gonna need some more time, because someone decided to pack the extra crazy in the suitcase."
"Hey," Parker let out, "I packed lots of things not just crazy. Wait I didn't mean that."
Listening closely Parker could hear Nate when he said, "Hardison managed to find out the location through some old financial records stored on a backup sever. You guys can come back once the ship docks."
Hearing Eliot growl she backed up before he let out a loud "What? You mean all this was for nothing. I nearly got set on fire, thrown overboard, and had Backed Alaska, with the sparklers lit mind you, dumped on my head and you guys are the ones that find the money!"
Grabbing the phone from him she quickly said goodbye and shut the phone. Looking at Eliot still dripping meringue topping onto the floor she knew exactly what would help him feel better. "C'mon Eliot you go clean up and then meet me on deck three towards the middle."
"No Parker. We're done. Just go pick a pocket or something."
Smiling she added, "Its where they teach cooking lessons. You can make me a dessert, because I'm still hungry."
Releasing the tension in his shoulders Eliot nodded realizing she was just trying to make him feel better, "Ok I'll be there in fifteen minutes." As they headed in different directions to get ready Eliot thought that maybe this cruise would end better than it started.
