Michael POV
"Nikita!"
She turned around and although she wore a mask of seriousness, I could tell that she was happy I had called her out from the glow she now had.
"Yes?"
I cleared my throat. "Amanda told me that you have improved from the first day you were here, it's only been your third week here but you seem to be advancing with everything as well."
She smiled and I could feel my breath being taken away by her beauty. She was like a child who loved to be praised. Especially be me... I felt a rather strange feeling of contentment as she smiled up at me.
"Why thank you sir" Nikita reached her hand up to tuck away a hair that seemed to be bothering her. She seemed rather nervous to be talking to me alone, if only she knew my heart was beating just as fast as hers.
"Feel free to call me Michael." I smiled at Nikita, who was going to be my new prodigy.
"Okay then .. Michael is there anything else that you would like to inform me about?" She glanced down at her feet and back up with a questioning look in her eyes when I replied.
"Yes I wasn't finished... Umm as i was saying you are doing pretty good except," she frowned, "for your skills as a hacker."
"I knew it! I'm never gonna get this hack stuff." Her lip pouted out and she crossed her arms obviously unhappy that I would be the one to call her out on it.
"No worries, you are here to learn and if you need help just ask." I was about to say that she should go ask Birkhoff when she smiled and said, "Michael would you help me with the hacker stuff that nerd obviously fails at explaining to me? Please?"
"Nerd?" The way she referred to Birkhoff was baffling thought quite amusing. She seemed to be careless and forgetting that she was talking to the second in command.
"Yep nerd, Birkhoff spends so much time with the high tech stuff I thought I would give him a nickname." I tried not to laugh but was not able to hold the laughter in, Nikita obviously was not used to having higher ups are in charge of her or she just liked to make life a little more fun then it normally was."
"Oh well. I guess i could help you later on I just have to talk to Birkhoff about it."
"Thanks, I guess I will see you later then." with that she ran off to join the other recruits for breakfast.
It took me a second before I realized that that was the first conversation that the two of us had ever had. I smiled, and just as quickly as the smile appeared it disappeared because I realized that I was still her mentor and I knew the rules of division. Relationships could be dangerous and would get us canceled.
A/N: Okay so first off… THANKS SO MUCH FOR THE REVIEWS. And, I think this chapter wasn't the best one I've written but most importantly … I'm kinda mad about how the TCA's turned out… but we have more to look forward to in season 2 and the TCAs are retarded anyways…and GAH ! Shaggie . Their tweets are so cute. Okay I have to stop before I freak myself out.
