America: Baltimore
Rachel
Rachel had just got back from her meeting with the presidents people, she had given them everything she had on the virus. They had told her they would have to talk it over and gather a Navy boat and its people if the plan was a go. She was given the name of a nearby hotel and told to wait. After weeks of traveling and stressing she was to sit back and wait, so she went to the hotel bar. She had not sat back with a drink and people watched in what felt like forever. When she lived in London she and her fiancé would people watch all the time, but that was a life time ago.
Rachel looked up from her drink and saw a very good looking man walk in. She had not been with anyone for some time now, due to her work and lack of a social life. He sat on a nearby stool, she watched him as he sat and settle in, and she could tell he was an Army man or police officer. He looked her way after ordering a beer and some food.
"Hi" he said
"Hello"
He looked at he as if he was taking he in "Are you British?" He asked
She liked the way she looked at her. She laughed "What gave it away?"
He smiled. "Lucky guess" he moved to the stool beside her. "So are you new here."
"Yes and no" she said. "I have been to America before but never Baltimore"
"Why you here?" he asked before he took a big drink
She sipped her drink. "Work, I am trying to get a team together for a job."
"What do you do?"
She never knew how to answer this question, so she went with funny. "Save the world."
He smiled wide "Well me to."
They talked for what felt like forever, then came closing time.
He stood "So do you want to come back to my place." He asked with a smile
She wanted to go up to his room with him but worried "are you sure, you don't know me."
He smiled. "I think I know you very well" he slipped his arm around her waist.
She smiled already set in going "You won't think less of me." She said wanting to play coy.
He shook his head. "Us world savers need love to right?"
She leaned in "Right" she kissed him.
With that they went up to his room where they spent all Friday and Saturday together.
On Sunday she had gotten the call that the op was a go and they would leave on Tuesday. Tom woke up after she ended her call.
"Who was that? It's too early on a Sunday to get a call!" He complained.
She got back in the bad. "I have to leave in two days."
He pouted "Where are you going."
"Can't say" She looked at his sleepy face. "Maybe we should go out today."
Tom sat up "that sounds fun" then he moved closer to her "But staying in sounds better."
She laughed "No." she pushed him away gently "Let's go out, I need to see the outdoors."
Laying back down. "Fine but let me sleep some more"
"That's fine" she got up off the bed and moved to the door.
Siting up he grabbed her hand "where are you going"
"To my room to shower and change."
He slumped into the bed "can you grab the stuff and shower here?"
She smiled "Fine"
"I don't want to waste a moment of our time together"
She went to her room to get her things.
