I pressed the button in the lift, Becker had to stay behind at the gate and do a few security checks but said he's be up to check on me later. The doors closed just after Matt entered the lift.

"Hi" He smiled at me.

"Hello" I replied holding onto the strap of my shoulder bag.

"So how was your first day?" He asked me as the doors opened at the hub, we both stepped out.

"Good, being babysat had it's moments too" I joked

Matt laughed slightly.

"He's really protective over you isn't he?" Matt half asked, half said to himself.

"Well, this wouldn't be the job he would of chose for me" I said as we headed over to the coffee machine.

"Want one?" He asked, I nodded

"Yes please" I smiled, Matt grabbed two mugs and poured coffee into them. He handed one to me.

"Thanks" I said as I took it from him, my fingers brushing his slightly again, sending that same tingle through me. What was going on?

"Infact if Becker had his way, I would be working in an office doing a 9 to 5 job" I smiled as I sipped slowly at the coffee.

"And not the interesting kind, you know he had me take a taser with me when I went to Uni" I said as we walked out of the hub and up to my office.

"Really?" Matt asked after drinking some of his coffee.

"Made me keep in my bag" I said "This very one actually" I said pointing down to my bag. Matt looked down at the bag.

"I think it's still in here too" I said handing Matt my coffee quickly and digging into my bag and pulled out the taser Becker had given me when he dropped me off at Uni.

"Yep, still here" I said closing my bag and showing it to Matt as he handed me back my coffee.

"So did you ever have to use it?" Matt asked after I slipped it back into my bag and we headed into my office.

"I did once" I said as I put my bag down, and quickly pulled out the photo frame and placed it on my desk and sat down.

"What happened?" He asked sitting down at the other side of my desk.

"You really want to know?" I asked taking another sip of my coffee, Matt drank more of his then nodded.

"Umm…well I was walking back to my dorm tower, it was dark" I said sitting back slightly and crossing my leg over my knee and holding my coffee in both hands.

"And this guy jumped out at me and tried to take my bag, and well I zapped him, in the er…not so nice place to get zapped" I said then quickly pulled my coffee to my lips and took a large gulp.

Matt looked down at said area and then back up at me. "Oh" He said

"When I told Becker, he did the same but patted me on the back too and told me I did a good job and that's why he gave me the taser" I said shrugging slightly. Matt looked a little pale.

"Sorry" I said quickly, he looked at me quickly and smiled slightly.

"Don't worry I won't use it on you, well unless you attack me out of the blue" I said joking.

"Are you ok?" I asked as he hadn't said anything

"Yeah, sorry was just imagining it. Not nice" He laughed slightly.

"I'm glad you're ok" I smiled and sipped at my coffee again.

"So" I said after a few minutes of silence

"I should get to work" Matt said standing up

I smiled "Me too" I said, he smiled quickly then left my office.

Even though at times while talking with Matt it went quiet, it wasn't an awkward quiet, it was quite comfortable for some reason. I also liked the way Matt smiled, I mean when he properly smiled. He had a really nice smile. I liked talking to him too. But what was this other feeling.

I finished off my coffee and then pulled my laptop towards me and began to do my work, check my emails and write up any reports I needed too.

Becker popped in every now and then, but not as much as he hung around yesterday, Matt came by again later on in the day seeing if I wanted anything from the Rec room. I told him I was fine but he still brought me back something.

I finished off the muffin Matt had brought me from the Rec room and threw the wrapper away. I pulled the laptop onto my lap again just as Becker turned up at my office. He walked in.

"Alright?" I asked as I continued to type.

"Just checking in" He told me

I nodded "I'm fine" I smiled then turned back to my laptop.

"You going to the shop tonight?" I asked him as he turned towards the door to leave.

"Do you need me too?" He asked turning to look at me.

"Well you said you were going to get me some Coke" I told him

"If you want I'll come with you and you pick something for dinner" I said

"We'll go after work" He said then walked to the door "I'll be back then" He said then left my office just as the ADD went off

Becker looked back at me and smiled "Be careful" I told him, he nodded then headed down to the hub.

I turned back to my laptop and continued with my work, replying to some emails and writing up more reports and saving them to be printed off. I looked around the office and then down at the hub, Matt seemed to be the last one leaving the ARC to go on the mission, he looked up at me and smiled slightly then headed towards the lifts.

I smiled to myself then turned back to my laptop.

I printed off one of the reports that needed to be handed in and headed over to Lester's office. I knocked on his door, he waved with me in. I walked in closing the door behind me.

"Here's that report that you wanted" I said stepping closer to his desk.

"Which one?" He asked not looking up.

"It's the one on some of the work Sarah hadn't finished when she was here" I told him, he nodded then held out his hand for the report, I gave it to him.

He quickly looked over it and then waved me out of his office. I turned towards the door "Jo?" Lester said, I turned back my hand on the handle.

"Yes?" I asked

"Could you get me a coffee?" He asked. I nodded

"How do you like your coffee?" I asked

"Black with two sugars" He said, I nodded again and then left his office and headed down to the coffee machine.

I grabbed a mug and poured in the coffee then added two sugars and stirred. I then took the coffee back up to Lester's office, knocking on the door but entering before he invited me in, I placed the coffee on his desk and then left his office before he had a chance to look up at me.

"Thank you" He said into my intercom the moment I entered my office.

"You're welcome sir" I replied then sat back down behind my desk.
