What I Want in a Man
Maya was filing away case files in the front of the office. She sighed, the only reason she was doing real work was because Pearl wasn't there and there was nothing good to watch on TV. She yawned a little and then the phone rang. Maya smiled and picked it up. "Hello! Wright and Co. Law Offices. Maya speaking." She pouted a little. "Oh Pearly… Is that so? Okay well do your best!" She hung up the phone. Pearl was going to stay in Kurain to do some extra training.
Maya started to put away the files and then her stomach started to growl. "Nick~!" She said in a sing song voice as she opened the door to the office. Phoenix was sitting behind the desk filling out paper work with a glare. "Hey Nick, it is time for dinner. Let's go get some burgers!" She tilted her head when he didn't look up. She moved closer to the desk and waved her hand in front of the paper work. "Nick come on you have to take a break! You've been working all afternoon."
Phoenix looked up at her with bags under his eyes. Maya gasped a little. "Nick when did you become a zombie!?" She covered her mouth with her hand. "I'm not a zombie Maya I just didn't get any sleep last night. This paper work has to get done…" He groaned not wanting to look down at the desk anymore. Maya reached out and took his wrist. "Come on no more work we are going out for burgers!" She started to pull him over the desk.
"Hey hey! Maya!" He said in protest. "At least let me stand up first!" She let go of his wrist. "Okay, I'm going to get my coat then." She walked out of the room happily. Phoenix sighed a little and stood up. He did need a break and a good night's rest, besides he was almost done with all the forms.
Maya was waiting by the door in her winter coat and scarf. She smiled when he came out. "Come on slow poke!" Phoenix smiled a little as he put on his coat and scarf. "Off to the burger joint!" Maya said as she opened the door. She waited to go down the stair so that Phoenix could lock the door.
Once they got outside Maya blew out big breaths so she could see them in the cold. Maya looked at a couple who was leaning over the window at a department store. She smiled sadly and Phoenix looked over at her because she was being quiet. "I want to do that with a guy one day." She said then blushed and looked down at the ground. Phoenix followed her trail of sight and saw the couple at the department store.
"Oh yeah… you've never had a boyfriend huh?" He said looking down at her. "You're nineteen now… your getting kind of old." He said teasing her. Maya gave him a shove and glared. "I'm not old! I just haven't found a guy with everything I want in a man yet."She folded her arms in front of her.
"Oh so you have conditions? What is one of them?" Phoenix asked keeping up the teasing. Maya was a bit surprised when he asked. She stared at him for a moment, specifically his suit. "He has to like the color blue." She said looking up at him. She smiled a little and Phoenix was confused. 'Just the color blue? How broad can you get? Maybe that is a good thing… maybe I can help her find a nice guy.' He thought as they reached their destination.
The next afternoon after Phoenix finished his paper work and while Maya was watching TV, he decided to make some calls. First he started with the guys he knew.
"Hey Larry do you like the color blue?"
"Sure I do! I have blue shirts, blue pants, blue socks, blue underwear, oh and I have this blue thong… but that isn't mine—"
Phoenix hung up as fast as he could.
"Gumshoe… do you happen to like the color blue?"
"Of course Pal! Blue is the color of the Police, of justice and truth."
Gumshoe then began to ramble and Phoenix hung up discreetly.
"Miles, I know this is going to sound weird but, do you like the color blue?"
"Yes, it is an agreeable color. I'm afraid I can't answer anymore of your questions. I'm quite busy."
Then Edgeworth hung up on Phoenix.
'This is going to be much harder than I thought…' Phoenix thought with a distraught face. 'Maybe I'll ask Maya what else is on her list…' He then got a much more hopeful look on his face.
