He is asking Me out to dinner? Maybe its just a work thing, him being nice and giving me a night to relax, maybe he's trying to be friends. But maybe... No. No, that cant be it. But why is he looking at me like that?
"so, would you? I mean you dont if you don't want to and all and I'm not trying anything funny and-"
"jack, of course I would. You shouldn't be so... Uh, hezitant? Zat iz ze word ja?" Mein gott even my English is failing me, I either really must be tired or he really does do strange things to me.
"Well if you say so Ange... So when do you want to meet up? I'm available as long as there isn't either a blackwatch incident or a global threat, so never" he laughed lightly at the end and she began pushing around papers and whatever else was on her desk.
"oh umm, were iz ze calander ? Where are you, you little- ah! Zhere you are." She had found her schedule and her face lightened up almost. "well it looks like I'm free as long as someone doesn't nearly die here. So do you have a preference for ze time and place?" She looked towards him and noticed how he relaxed at her statement.
"well, uh, I guess we could meet out in the reception at around 7:30?" Jack began leaning on one foot more than the other before switching directions, making him look like he was teetering from side to side.
"okay... How should I dress? Casual or formal or formal casual or casual formal or-"
"I think you should just dress as you see fit, we're not going to a fancy restaurant and we're not going to a burger joint, as much as I would like to there aren't really any in Switzerland" he sighed at the end, thinking of how such a place links to a certain gunslinger they all know.
"oh, well I will meet you zen and you can tell me all about zis place"
" okay then, its a date." Jack winked at her before taking his jacket and walking out, but not without saying "dont forget that your off duty! Its official from the commander!" As he closed the door behind him.
"okay, stay calm Angela. Stay calm and oh mein gott I cant stay calm and I'm panicking and- wait, I'll go see Lena. She'll help. Or make it worse." She then eyed her clock and saw it was only 5 pm, giving her two hours to get then continued to lock up her office (confidential documents on overwatch agents healthcare are pretty valuable) and proceeded to find Lena oxton, one of the few female members in their organisation.
After walking the base she found Lena in a small almost personal 'garden'. She was happily staring out into the distance,listening to the evening sounds of nature, birds and crickets and a soft breeze whistle through the surrounding forest. I was genuinely peaceful and calm, even for Switzerland that seemed out of the ordinary. Angela kept walking up to Lena, who was so zoned out she probably couldn't see someone take her pulse blasters from her holsters. "um, Lena?"
"bloody hell luv you scared the absolute- oh, Angela, how can I help ya?" Her stereotypical British accent (we don't all sound like this by the way) relaxed as she saw it was the Swiss medic who had startled her.
"oh well I was going to ask for your help with..." She felt, and radiated, embarrassment at asking for help to get ready to go on a 'date'.
"yeah, go on luv"
"well, jack asked me-"
"YES! I AM GOING TO GET YOU SORTED LUV!" She nearly screamed as she let out a squeal before grabbing Angela's arm and pretty much dragging her to Lena dorm. "and I won the bet." She muttered with a small fist pump to no one.
"wait!? BET!?"
