Reaching Rose ,Chapter 1

Hi Guys! You may have seen me around ,reviewing other fanfics. Bare with me ,because this is my first fanfiction ,and reviews and constructive criticism would be greatly appreciated.

It's going to be centred around Victor and his soulfinder ,around the time all the Benedict brothers had found their soulfinders . And just for reference : I love Atoosa ,I thought she was the perfect personality for Vic in the series (which I have read through entirely ,and more than once) but this story has been stuck in my head for a while now so… Also ,I don't think and going to include Misty and co. ,because that would just be too many characters for me too handle, though they may be mentioned in passing .

I'll try and update as regularly as I can ,but please bear in mind I've got school etc. to deal with . Here goes ,and I hope you all like it !

Disclaimer : Anything you recognise from Joss Stirling's books ,surprise ,surprise ,belongs to her entirely !She is the God ,after all.

RPOV

I stood in the conference room ,as people whirled around me : planning, newbies panicking ,and all the other agents very official, very collected ,smirking somewhat at the newer bunch that had recently arrived . A new mission had been signed. But I wouldn't be going on it of course ,I had already been signed on a mission ,even though I'd just come back from Afghanistan . One that was going to have devastating consequences , especially after what I had just realised : Victor Benedict is my soulfinder.

You'd think I'd be ecstatic ,and I am ,but I'm also faced with a slight …situation .Tell Victor ,and risk dying on my 'code red' mission ,which might just kill him .Or leave him the dark. I know I'm most likely going to die on this mission, they told me as much ,I know as much . But should I let him live in the dark ,searching and searching, but not knowing his soulfinder is probably dead ,or tell him ,as selfish as I am ,and die ,absolutely destroying him .My thought process was interrupted as the man himself walked in ,in deep conversation with the agent next to him .He glanced at me, his smile a little strained , and my heart broke. We'd been friends for sometime ,going on various missions, partnered together ,and I won't lie to you ,I was drawn to him .And I don't want to seem presumptuous ,but I think he was too . However I think we were both too scared to see if were soulfinders ,or even ask about it ,worried of the outcome that we weren't what we wanted to be . But of course ,we had some …impeccable… timing .On the morning I got my mission ,Vic obviously picked up the courage to see if were soulfinders . He started the conversation bluntly ,which he often does when he's nervous or anxious saying : "My birthday's February the 7th . When's yours? Don't bull shit me either Rose" . Of course, I panicked ,mainly because I'd just found out I was basically going to die and said "I- I'm sorry Vic …It's September .",when it is actually 3 days after his . And I pretty much fled ,the tears only starting when I arrived back at my apartment ,because ,well ,Rose Albions is strong ,an undefeatable ,world-renown senior agent ,who doesn't cry over …over a guy. And since then I've just seen him and want to burst into tears all over again . His hair ,his jawline, he muscles ,his eyes …Oh my God those eyes . I'm a little melodramatic I know , but I've never been like this before ,I swear.

I hear my name called ,and for the second time ,I snap out of my day dreaming . I really need to get it together .

"Yes Simmons? Speak"

"I-I was just w-wondering Ma'am"

"Come on Simmons ,I need actual sentences ,not penguin talk. " I smiled ,softening slightly.

"I –I need some time off" .

"Really Simmons ? You go off ill ,come back ,and demand time off? You surely know how ridiculous this is. And quit trembling ,you look like some nursery kid , you're practically pissing yourself . Get over it ,you're an agent"

"I'm sorry Miss ,I really am …I… I think I'm pregnant "

My stomach dropped for her ,I swear ,God knows what management will do to her for this –she was one of the ones who refused the implant aswell ,promising she'd be careful. I sighed . "Well then ,Simmons get your ass off premises" . She nodded ,scuttling off . I called out : "And Simmons ?!" She turned . "Congratulations." Now I had to find a new agent for this new mission . I stalked off , the indifferent ,cool ,work façade on show. Hold your head high Rose .

2 Weeks Later

I hung ,strung up in my cell ,pain radiating through every cell in my body . But I was nearly there, I nearly had the intel I needed. Keep going Rose ,keep your head held high. Victor's face swam in front of me ,even as they tested on me ,beat me ,for information ,and my lips somehow managed to stay sealed . I'm nearly there Vic. I'm coming back to you ,I swear.

Hopefully you liked it ,and my next chapter should be longer ,this was just an intro ,a background. PLEASE PLEASE REVIEW
