Okay really fast update!!! Semi-important chapter so read and try to understand! Just so you know. Thanks Jess for looking at this!!!

Disclaimer: I don't own KND or really anything else.

I open my eyes and see that I'm in my old room. I sit up, memories still rushing through my head. I glance around and see Numbuh 2, his back turned to me, looking at my desk. I quietly get up and sneak up behind him. Then I jump on his back.

"Wha?!" Hoagie yells. I giggle. He turns his head to see me, and breaks out into a smile. "Abby, you're awake!" He yells. I smile back.

"Well, Abby's not sleepwalking if that's what you're thinkin or at least anymore with all that yellin." I say. He blushes.

"Sorry!" He whispers. I laugh.

"It's s'okay baby." I whisper in his ear. A shiver goes down his back. I grin.

"So, you're going to get off my back now right?" Numbuh 2 asks. I smirk.

"Never baby!" I exclaim.

"You think so huh?" He asks. I nod. "Well, Ms. Abigail Lincoln, I don't think you will be on my back for long." I frown.

"Why do you think that?"

"Cause of this." And he wraps his arms around me and pulls me to his front.

"Since when could you do that?" I gasp. He smirks.

"Hey, I'm not the chubby preteen I used to be! I workout." He says proudly. I look him over. Heck yeah! He had muscle that was apparent. Thankfully, he was still comfortable, if he wasn't I would have him stop working out! I gaze up to his face and say, "Numbuh 5 knew that Numbuh 2! You started some when you were 11 ½. Don't think that Numbuh 5 didn't notice then." I say, and then blush. He chuckles.

"I should hope you notice, or did you forget the last 11 months of KND?" I blush even harder.

"Well, Numbuh 5 was sorta decommissioned." I explain. He gazes quizzically at me. I blush even harder, and I bet moon base could even see it! "Abby remembers everything now from KND, even the last few months Numbuh 2." Numbuh 2 stands me up.

"Abby we aren't in KND anymore, you can call me Hoagie." He says, leaning in. I lean in back.

"What if Abby wanna call you Numbuh 2 or 2?" I ask. He tilts my chin up.

"Do you really want too?" He asks. I shake my head. He closes the distance and puts his lips on mine. I kiss back right away, remembering the last few months on KND. The sneaking around to be with each other, the way he sometimes would just hold me when I had a bad day. The way he told me he loved me before Rachel was decommissioned, and that he didn't wanna be like Nigel who didn't tell her that he was in love with her. Nigel never did tell her that he was/is in love with her. At least Hoagie told me.

My hands went up to Hoagie's hair and tangled themselves in his locks. His arms wrap around my waist and pulls me closer into a deeper kiss. I will forever curse oxygen, that's always the reason the kissing stops.

"Yeah, Abby's not sure if she remembered quiet right. If we could go over it again…" I trail off. Hoagie chuckles.

"Not right now. You probably have a ton of questions by now." He says. I look at him quizzically for a minute then remember my decommissioning.

"Abby don't really remember my decommissioning. What happened?" I ask, feigning innocence. Hoagie's grin falls and sighs.

"Of course you would want to know about that." He says. I nod. "All right, let me think about how to put that." He paces around my room. I watch, noticing little details, such as he still runs his fingers through his hair when he's thinkin hard. After a while he comes back over to me.

"Okay, you were brought to moonbase with injures." He starts out. I nod in understanding. "It was bad, like you weren't going to die or anything like that, but you were definitely going to have scars. They happened on your last mission…" He pauses. I put a hand on his arm, encouraging him to go on. He took a shaky breath and went on. "Apparently, the TND ordered that you would be decommissioned immediately. Really, just two agents wanted you to decommissioned-"

"Chad and Maurice!" I cry. Hoagie nods. Wait?! Maurice is my friend… or at least I thought he was. This could explain his behavior on the beach today! Hoagie continues.

"They wanted you to be for some reason. They took you from the infirmary, in a hospital bed, to decommissioning. Fanny tried to stop them, but they decommissioned you anyway. Right after that, they had our whole sector decommissioned." What?! Our whole sector? Why the heck would they do that?

"I really don't know why they did it. I escaped, but the rest were caught off guard and decommissioned." He says. Oops! I said it out loud. Or he read my mind. Either way I should stop having these conversations in my head. Then I remember something and I turn to look at him.

"Abby remember the mission, Abby thinks." I say. Hoagie's face turned grim.

"I thought you would. You told me a bit, but not a lot, enough to know that you were in danger and you wouldn't let me help you." He accuses. I shrug.

"Abby didn't want you to get hurt. No one knew Abby came to see you during the mission, and that's a good thing or you would have been hurt… or worse." I choke a bit. Hoagie just shakes his head.

"Abby, when are you going to really notice that I'm a big boy and can take care of himself." He says. I smirk.

"When you stop acting like a lil' kid." I proclaim. We stare at each other for a bit, daring the other to look away. Finally, Hoagie yawns and looks away.

"It's late, I'm going to go to bed." He announces. I nod, then smirk.

"You could stay in here." I offer. Hoagie grins.

"As much as I want to, I'm going back to my old room and actually get some sleep." I pout. He chuckles. "Good night Abby." He says ducking out the door.

"Night Hoagie." I say. I lie down in my old bed and think about all the missions my team and I had and all the memories we had. I turn off the lights and snuggle into my comforters. Suddenly, I remember every detail about the mission. My heart starts pounding, and every sense is heightened. People, I know now are after me and they want the info that I can now give. I knew then, I wasn't going to get any sleep tonight.

As I said really fast update. Competition tomorrow and I've got to go now so I hope you all like it!!!

In God We Trust,
