Chapter 4

Disclaimer:All rights go to Ally Carter and Ian Flemming! I own nothing but Vienna :)

Once Abby and Edward boarded the plane and found their seats. Abby stalled her hand luggage in the upper compartment. Whilst Edward sat besides her flicking through channels with his remote. Neither of them talked for half an hour, they both seemed to have thrown themselves into something to avoid conversation with one another. Mainly due to what had happened earlier and their stubbornness.

Besides that, everything was fine, until an air hostess appeared. Edward thought she was attractive, her hair was brown mid-length and down with the ends fading into blonde, and hazel eyes with flicks of green. She also had a slim figure, which made Abby jealous. Both were awestruck.

"Good evening, Mr and Mrs Smith. My name is Vienna Blake and I will be personally assisting all your needs and requirements." Vienna said cheerfully.

"Thank you Miss Blake. B..." Edward started.

"Oh please, I insist you call me Vienna." Vienna interrupted.

"Very well then Vienna, at the moment we do not require assistance. However I will call you if we do." Edward gave her a warm smile, which seemed to satisfy her enough to walk away.

"Edward Townsend. You have exactly one minute to tell me exactly why we are a married couple." Abby demanded.

"Oh, The Director did not tell you Abigail?" This earned an eye roll from Abby.

"No, what else was he supposed to say?"

"That are covers are a newly married couple. Who are returning back to England from our honeymoon?" Edward replied in a hushed monotone voice.

"You have got to be kidding me!" Abby cursed under her breath. She didn't realise The Director had a death wish.

Just before Edward could reply, Abby stuck her earphones in, plugged out reality and closed her eyes. This caused Edward to just shut up. He knew that right now was not the best time to debate with her. After twenty minutes with her eyes shut, Abby felt herself falling asleep. As it was 1 am in the morning in America, and they weren't going to be in England for a few more hours.

Vienna was passing when Edward called her.

"Vienna? Could I borrow a blanket for my wife please?" Confidently lying, Edward stuck to his cover.

"Of course, I will be back in a moment sir."

Vienna returned with a blanket, that she passed to Edward.

"Thank you Vienna" Thanked Edward

"My pleasure, sir." Replied Vienna as she retreated to her post.

Carefully, Edward pushed the bar that separated them and shuffled closer to Abby. Close enough that their shoulders were grazing, and Abby's dropped, because she was leaning on the bar, so she leaned on his chest. It was 1 am after all, Edward didn't even bother moving. Instead he gave in and fell asleep, fully admitting defeat.

-Time skip 12 hours later-

The sun rise was peeking through the clouds, the brightness woke Abby up. She shuffled around until she realised who she was leaning on. Maybe she could quietly get off him, so that he didn't wake up? Too late for that, Abby's shuffling woke Edward up. He was only waking up; when Abby was already fully awake.

"Sleeping on the job are we Townsend?" There was a smug look on Abby's face.

"I beg to differ Abigail. You should have seen yourself last night."

"What? What did I do exactly?" Abby tried to keep the smug look on her face, and show no sign of emotion.

"Abigail, you fell asleep. And when I was putting a blanket on you, you put your head on my chest." Edward admitted, his voice was husky while his eyes were concentrating on hers. Abby felt a pain in the pit of her stomach, his eyes bore into hers. How didn't she realise earlier? She knew she could smell strong cologne, the scent had intoxicated her.

"About that..." Abby began to think of an excuse.

"I thought that Vienna had given me a firm pillow." She stuttered.

"Sure Abigail." He let her name draw out. A touch of guilt was showing from her facial expression, he thought that he should stop now. Anyway he knew that she was going to have a rough time on this mission. The duo was bickering between each other when Vienna appeared.

"Sir, Madam, please can you put your seat belts. For we are about to land." Vienna instructed.

"Of course. Thank you Vienna." Abby gave her a fake smile; she wasn't finished with Edward yet.

Lifting her hand from her lap, Abby gently pushed Edward away, as they were still sitting closely to each other. Then pushed the bar down without another word. Abby was sure that everyone on the plane did not want to hear her problems.

Eventually, the plane landed on the ground of Heathrow airport. According to Edward, Heathrow is one of the busiest airports in England. True, Abby kept looking at her surroundings. She hadn't been to England before. Or seen the SIS, well she was going to today. As Edward called a cab, to take them to Canary Wharf.

-Time skip to Canary Wharf- Outside Canary Wharf train station was Edward was carrying the turquoise suitcase whilst Abby was sauntering in front of him. Like she knew where she was going. Edward just laughed as they walked into the station. He pulled her into elevator 54 in the train station.

"What was that for?" Abby shot him a quizzical look.

"I would tell you, but where would be the fun in that?" Edwards's eyes were stuck on the elevator pad. Quickly, he pushed the alarm button sideways, to reveal a finger print sensor. He placed his thumb over the sensor, an approval sign showed. Because the sensor pad went green. Instantly, the elevator stopped and dropped down fast.

"Edward what the fuck?" Abby yelled as they were falling 15 feet.

Not a single word came out of his mouth, until the elevator had stopped. The doors opened slowly to reveal twenty people at their desks typing on computers. Edward walked out first, to be greeted by an exotic woman. Who was simply beautiful?

"Agent Townsend and Cameron, I presume?" The woman questioned them. Not even a 'welcome.'

"That is correct." Responded Abby, before Edward could talk.

"Please follow me." She strode along a clear path that was not full of desks or people.

"Just for future references, my name is Miss Eve Moneypenny." Eve spoke in such an orderly manner, with a strong British accent.

"And here we are." Eve directed them to an office. Reluctantly, Abby wanted to go in first, but was stopped by Edward. In the end maybe Abby thought it was best if Edward took charge for a while. She had had enough of surprises for a while. Abby and Edward walked into the office to find a woman in her sixties analysing them.

She stood up, "Edward Townsend, it's a pleasure to see you again." And shook his hand.

"The pleasure is all mine madam." Edward graciously smiled.

"And this must be your accomplice." She wondered.

"Yes, this is Agent Abigail Cameron. We have both been sent on this mission by The Director."

"Ah, yes. That is correct, I have been recently had contact with The Director. For your information Abigail, my name is M. The head of the SIS."

Finding herself remaining silent was Abigail, she didn't want to talk. Instead she just stood there watching Edward. He was being nice. For once, it was rare. Abby had completely zoned out of the conversation, when she saw Edward starting to leave, she thanked M and was about to leave the room when she called out for her.

"Agent Cameron, I will leave you in charge of this." She handed her an envelope

"Thank you ma'am, we must be leaving now." Edward interrupted.

"Good day to you M." Abby let out a small yawn. As her and Edward walked away and back to the elevator.

When Abby and Edward were both in the elevator, Abby opened the envelope. To her extent it was a hotel key. For The Four Seasons.

"YES! A hotel. All I need right now is sleep."

"Yes sleep in one of the most luxurious hotels in Canary Wharf." Edward retorted, as if it was one of the places he least wanted to go to right now.

"Why? Don't you have jet lag Edward?" Abby knew he did, she just wanted to see his reaction. While the elevator went up.

"I'm fine Abigail. But we do need to check into our hotel." Edward replied, he was tired himself but he wasn't going to admit it.

-Time skip to Four Seasons Hotel-

The duo walked into their hotel room, Abby thought that there would be two beds. There wasn't, there was only one bed.

"The Director is going to be seriously sorry." Growled Abby, in her mind she was already plotting ways of killing him. She grabbed her suitcase found her pyjamas and threw them on. Fully aware that it was the afternoon in England Abby, collapsed on the bed and fell asleep. Jet lag.

Meanwhile, Edward was in the shower, after five minutes he comes out. The door opens and steam comes out of the door, revealing Edward with only a towel on. Abby opened her eyes for a second to see Edward and his chiselled chest, coming towards her. She then closed her eyes and carried on sleeping. Edward finds his travel bag, and pulled a pair of pyjamas out as well.

He was just about to go to sleep when he saw a box on the bed side table, it was a ring box. Inside there was a pair of rings. Edward slipped his ring on and quietly walked over to Abby. Gently, he lifted her finger and slipped her ring on. After that, he carefully picked Abby up bridal style, Abby started moving in his arms, her eyes flickering open.

"Go back to sleep." Hushed Edward, while his eyes were locked on hers. And with that, Abby fell back asleep.

Next thing he knew, he was laying Abby under the duvet. She looked delicate, as her curls framed her face. Without another thought, Edward slipped under the duvet and fell into a dreamless sleep.
