"...." Talking

[Head Quarters]
Maria leaned against the door as a group of 10 workers walked into the mansion one by one. She looked over them, they nodded and smiled at her. The last guy carried a tool box with him, he looked at Maria and flahsed her a smile, Maria licked her lips and smiled back.
She then turned and closed the door behind them. "Well... at least one is cute." She muttered and turned back towards them with a smile. "All right everyone, I want you to do a complete check up of this place. Check everywhere for any cracks or any leaks... then fix them, understand?" They nodded, and her smile widened with satisfaction. "Good, I'll be in my room if you need me."
With a wink for the cute guy, she turned and began walking upstairs.
[Gym]
"Wow, you even have a gym in your house, you guys are really rich!" Max exclaimed as they walked in.
"You don't have to do anything if you don't feel like working out, we're not forcing anything onto you." Chiriko said and let them in.
"This place is an extended part of the mansion, not many people even see the doorway for the hallway that leads to this place." Nancy explained, walking in last.
Then all of them just stood there and looked at each other, no one said a thing, finally Lisa frowned and spoke up. "Why are you just standing here, go, do whatever you want."
Still, no one moved. Nancy glanced around then shrugged and walked over to the pool, taking off her long dress, and her high heel shoes, she dived in right afterwards.
Then their eyes looked back at each other again, only the sound of water splashing can be heard. Kai, being annoyed at this, picked up his feet and walked past Katherine towards the bench press.
Perhaps that was all the encouragement they needed, for they began moving around finding an equipment that they like. Lisa walked over to a far end of the room and turned on the speakers, music blasted out, giving the room a more lively atmosphere.
Katherine just stood by the pool, talking with Nancy as she came up for air. Chiriko jumped off the high beam and landed in front of them, Nancy floated on top of the water and smile at her. "Cat."
"Better than a fish, a cat's more graceful." Chiriko said, sticking her tongue out at her, she then turned to Katherine thoughtfully. "Kath, what happened between you and Kai the other day?"
Lisa glanced at Katherine, but said nothing, Nancy tilted her head to look at Katherine curiously as well. Katherine shrugged and crossed her arms over her chest.
"Nothing, just an argument."
"About?"
Katherine glanced at Chiriko, she definitely asks too many questions, and her questoins are always straight on.
"You know, the usual, my 'I'll do anything for my work' speech, and the fact that he can't take an one-night-stand." Katherine said easily.
Chiriko looked at her for a few seconds before nodding her head, believing her totally. Katherine smirked, but then again, Chiriko's too trusting of her friends, too naive sometimes.
Nancy looked at Chiriiko's satisfied face, and Katherine's smirking face, something's not right. She made a mental note to ask Katherine about the truth later.
[Maria's Room]
She stood in front of a row of wall height windows, looking out at some of the workers in the backyard. She has red high heel shoes on, with a red leather mini skirt, at the top there's a tight red tank top, not covering too much of her body.
She stood, hugging her arms, waiting for someone. Soon, a knock came on the door, and the door was then opened. Maria smiled slightly, and slowly turned around, coming face to face with the guy downstairs, whom is just closing the door behind him.
"Something wrong?" Maria asked, tilting her head.
"No.... not necessarily, not the house at least. However, someone in this house may need some help."
Maria raised an eyebrow, he's definitely very interesting. "What's your name?"
"Alan, and yours?" He asked, putting down his tool box and slowly walked towards her.
"Maria."
"Beautiful name." He commented with a smile, she dropped her arms and began walking backwards until her back touched the glass window. She has no where to go.
Alan walked over, placing one hand beside her shoulder, and one beside her wasit, trapping her between him and the glass window. Maria looked up at him easily. For a constructoin worker, he really is cute, and very tall as well. She barely reaches up to his shoulders even with her high heel on.
"You look so lonely, need some company?" He whispered softly, hot air brushing her face. He then leaned down and the side of their faces touched, he nibbled on her ear softly.
Maria tilted her head upwards, eyes half closed, she sighed and touched his arms. He left a kiss on her cheek and then pulled back and looked at her young and pretty face.
"How old are you?"
Maria opened her eyes and looked up at him, after a minute, she smiled and caressed his cheek with her right hand. Her eyes giving out an inviting vibe, she tilted her head and licked her lips teasingly. "Don't worry... I'm old enough to know what I'm doing. I've been doing this for a long time now."
Alan looked at her for a moment longer before pulling her towards him and pressed a hot kiss on her lips, in turn, she wrapped her arms around his neck and pulled him towards her more for better contact. His hold on her waist tightened, pressing her body into his, letting them share each other's warmth.
In the midst of their heated kiss, Alan opened his eyes and looked down at Maria's face, her eyes closed, she's totally enjoying the kiss. Then without any linger, he looked past her and looked out of the windows, a few workers are there installing something onto the building.
He just looked at them, totally dazed, hoping that they'd hurry up and finish their job soon. He was so wrapped up in what he was thinking, he didn't even realize Maria pulling away.
She slowly pulled away when he stopped responding and opened her eyes, she found his eyes else where, looking right past her. She looked at him then took a step back, he still noticed nothing. She looked at him once more before following his gaze and looked out the window, her eyes landed on the workers that are busying installing something on the wall of the mansion. She frowned in confusion, after all, she's not an expert in home fixing. She turned around towards Alan, whom is still looking out the window. With a sigh, she placed her hands on his face and turned his face towards her.
Alan snapped out of his daze as he felt his face being turned by someone very firmly, then he was looking into Maria's calm face. A smile lit up his face immediately, however, the smile never reached his eyes. "Sorry babe, I was admiring your garden."
Maria slowly dropped her hands and smiled. "My garden is more beautiful than me? I really should chop it down someday... or else, every guy that I bring up to my room will be more interested in my garden than in me."
Alan reached forwards and ran a hand through her hair, playing with her long blue hair, messing it up lightly. Maria let him, seeing what he's going to do next.
"Honey, of course you're more beautiful... I was just admiring what a great job you have done to your garden. A beautiful girl with a beautiful garden is the perfect image, don't you think?"
Maria smiled, hiding many truth behind her smile. The garden is Nancy's, she's the only one that has the patience to actually take care of a garden. Herself would be out at that time, looking for guys to hang out with, or tracking down data for the latest mission.
Suddenly, Alan's cell phone went off, loud beeping sound rang out the huge room. They both looked down at it, Alan shrugged and pulled it out of his pocket, pressing a few buttons, he read a message and then stuffed it back into his pocket again.
He looked up, Maria has her arms crossed over her chest, an eyebrow raised, waiting for his answer. He ran a hand through his hair and sighed, an apologetic look appeared on his face, yet... how much of that is real?
"I'm sorry sweetie... but my workers are done, and we need to go right now." He said, while reaching for her face, his hand cupped her face.
"It's all right, I understand. You know where I live, come visit me sometimes... or else I'll get lonely again." She said hintingly, and he smiled.
"I definitely will, you can count on that." Leaning down, he left another kiss on her lips. After a second, he pulled back and gave her a smile, she smiled back widely.
She watched as he slowly walked backwards to where he left his tool box and picked it up, then winking at her, he turned and walked out of the room. He closed the door behind him, the smile on Maria's face slowly lost its warmth, and soon she dropped it completely.
Letting go of her arms, she turned and walked closer to the windows and looked at the wall of the mansion. Something's not right, she can feel it, but she can't quite put her fingers on it.
Turning around, she picked up her leather jacket that's lying on her bed and threw it on hastily. Taking out her hair from the inside of her jacket, she shook her head wildly, letting her long blue hair drop around herself naturally. Then she picked up her feet and walked towards the door, just as her hand made contact with the door handle, a loud explosion was heard.
Then the whole building shook, she looked up, the ceiling had cracks in them. Letting out a colorful curse, she swung open the door and was greeted by a piece of the fallen roof, she jumed up and landed on the other side of it. Without looking back, she stood up and ran down the stairs ducking, and jumping up and down from the fallen mansion.
She jumped off the last couple of steps and ran towards the gym, in her mind, thoughts were being processed furiously. Suddenly, everything clicked in her mind. Alan wasn't interested in her... he was only interested in her death, he came into her room just to distract her from seeing what the workers are really up to.
Turning the corner, she grabbed a door handle and slammed the door open, then coming face to face with anothe long corridor. She moved aside as more of the mansion fell, then began running forwards. Soon, she can see the double door to the gym, they're getting closer and closer. Panting, she braked in front of the doors and threw them open.
The first scene that entered her eyes was everyone running towards the door way, then suddenly she caught a fallen roof coming down towards Kai. Every alert cell in her body activated. "Katherine! Kai!"
Hearing her scream, Katherine turned immediately, just in time to see the fallen roof coming down at Kai. Frowning, she ran back towards him, hoping to reach him in time.
Kai looked up at the fallen roof, just as he thought he was going to feel the hard rock coming in contact with his body. He was caught off guard as he was pushed forewards and landed on the ground, the rock came down, but never hit his body.....
