Thanks for the reviews. I hope you enjoy!

Warden sat up and stretched. He looked around his room confused. He was supposed to be in his office finishing the paperwork.

"The paperwork!" He yelled as he scrambled out of bed. He ran towards the office. On his hurry he saw Jared talking to Charice.

"Jared!" He yelled. "Why didn't you wake me up earlier! You know I have work to do!"

Jared jumped up scared and confused.

"But , sir-!" He started.

Warden didn't want to hear about it. He went straight into his office, and slammed the door behind him. He turned around and was surprised to see someone in his chair. He stepped up to the person that was fast asleep. He smiled to see it was Mistress passed out and snoring slightly. He mentally smacked himself as he remembered that Mistress had made him sleep while she helped tie up some loose ends. He looked down at her, and figured she might be more comfortable in her own bed. He leaned down and studied her face.

"Psst." He whispered. "Mistress...Wake up."

He poked her in the cheek. She liffted her head up, and a stray piece of paper stuck to the side of her face. The Warden had to hold in a chuckle.

"Hmm..." She muttered. "Warden...did you need something?"

He tugged the paper off her face, and smoothed it out onto the pile of paperwork. He smirked a little, and looked back to her.

"Well, I thought you might be a little uncomfortable sleeping at a desk. I figured you would prefer a bed to sleep in."

She smiled and stretched out.

"I'm fine now, Warden. Thank you."

He shook his head.

"No, no, no. If anything, I should be thanking you. After all the work you've done for me." Warden said.

Mistress stared at him shocked. He was thanking her. Her. Out of all the people in the world, she would have expected to be the last person he thanked. She cleared her throat, and looked up at him with a smile.

"Well, it was my pleasure. You're welcome."

They stared at each other before Mistress suddenly stood up.

"I suppose you would like your desk back." She said.

"Yes. Thank you...again." He said as he sat down. "You can join me if you like. I really don't have much else to do."

Mistress looked at the seat across from him and shrugged.

"Alright. I have nothing else to do. I'm sure Charice and Bruce can handle the prisoners without me for a little while." She said as she took the offered spot.

"You seem to have alot of trust in your staff." Warden said with a raised eye brow.

"Well, naturally. I might be harsh to them, but it's only to toughen them up. I have alot of respect for them. Believe it or not."

Warden nodde his head.

"I agree. I feel the same way about the members of my own staff. Jared and Alice might not beperfect, but that can be fixed."

Mistress bit her lip. She remembered something she had saw in his paperwork. Warden took notice of this, and he grabbed her hand that was resting on his desk. She looked at their hands in shock, but made no move to separate them.

"Mistress, is something wrong?" He asked.

She was surprised by the concern she heard in his voice. Maybe. Just maybe. He actually cared for her.

"Well, I was going through your paperwork, and I happened to come across your budget."

She felt his hand tense around hers. She was almost worried if she should have brought it up, but she gradually felt it relax. She sighed inwardly.

"I was afraid of that. To answer any questions you have, it is no mistake. Superjail isn't having the best of times currently." He said regretfully.

Mistress squeezed his hand.

"I-I'm sorry, Warden. I didn't know you had such a hard time. You always seem so...happy and energetic."

Warden let out a short chuckle.

"Well, I like to try and balance myself out. To be honest, you're not exactly as I thought you were."

Mistress raised an eye brow at him.

"Oh. What did you think I was like?"

Warden laughed nervously and removed his hand from hers to awkwardly rub his neck.

"Well, I thought you were always...serious. You just took things straight to the point. But now..."

"Now what do you think I'm like?"

Warden shook his head.

"Now I'm not sure what to think. You're a puzzle for me to put together, and I like that." He said smiling.

"Well, Warden," She said as she stood up and leaned across his desk. "You should know this puzzle likes to be surprising."

With a small smirk at his expression, she kissed him. Shocking not only him, but also herself.

Yay! They kissed! As always, please R&R.
