"Yo,Hoshi probably ain't comin' in to didn't come home last night either."Reno said,running a hand through his hair.I sat in silence,and he took that as 'leave.' He left,muttering something about bugging Elena.I stood up,sighing.I began pacing,looking at the clock every other minute.I was antsy,as some would put hadn't come home after the mission,she wasn't coming into work...Had something happened?I threw pencils at random people below,I stood leaning against a wall,chucking things out the window.I growled in frustration,my jaw clenched.
"Sir?"I looked up,Tseng stood in the doorway,his eyebrow raised.I glared."Are you okay?"
"No.I'm of my Turks has failed to show up today."
"Oh,I suppose Reno told you about Hoshi then?"I glared again,tossing another missile at someone."You're worried."It wasn't a question,it was a statement.A statement a nagging voice in the back of my mind taunted me with.
"I suppose."I voice teased me,and I wished I could shut him up,he sounded suspiciously like Reno.
"Then tell her when she comes in?"He suggested.I turned to him,a dark look on my held his hands up,as if in defeat and backed out of the hour had past since Reno had told me my favorite Turk had gone 'missing'.I glared at the clock.
"I hate time."
"I rather like is useful,and a beautiful only we had more of it."I turned ,leaning against my door was the AWAL Turk I'd been worrying about for a good chunk of my morning.I almost sighed in relief,a happy smile played on her lips,but I knew she'd think I was soft.I place a scowl on my face,though it was rather difficult.
"Why are you late?"She opened her mouth but I cut her off."You think you can just waltz in here,an hour late,not even wearing your uniform,and decide the first thing you say is about time?Of all things?"I didn't want to yell at her...Somehow,it just happened...She stared,her mouth still slightly open,her grey-green eyes looked mad.
"Well,I'm sorry I'm actually some people."She said before slamming the door behind her.I was an idiot. 'Yes you are.' the voice agreed.

Tseng opened the door to the Turks lounge,to be met with a sight he never thought he'd was crying silently,but she was also muttering angrily."Ho...shi?"She looked up,a burnt out look to her beloved coffee pot was empty beside her,but the oldest Turk decided to igore that little detail."What's wrong."He asked picking up the pot and starting a new round of the addicting substance.
"I got yelled at."He laughed a had heard her little 'tiff' with the vice president.
"Well,you know he only does it because he cares."He froze,wishing he could unsay what he had just said.
"Yeah right."She scoffed and continued drowning her sorrows in her overly sweetened black coffee.
"I'm cares about you,he was worried about probably thought something had happened."Tseng said,adding the last detail to his perfect cup of coffee.
"Whatever."She stood up,taking his coffee from him and walking slowly back to her employers' son's office."Hey,jackass!If you're done yelling at me,I'm here to do my job."Rufus winced behind his desk as she opened the door silently as usual,but the slamming wasn't something routein.
