It Rained Today
The group of onlookers had departed shortly before John and Elizabeth came inside.
"Well, now that we're thoroughly soaked from standing in the rain for twenty minutes, I say we go get some turkey sandwiches," said John.
"Sounds good, I love turkey sandwiches," said Elizabeth.
"My kinda woman," said John.
Elizabeth grabbed his outstretched hand and they headed off down the hallway laughing.
Little did they know they had another little spy watching them. One that went by the name of Smarmy Bastard Scientist, Kavanaugh for short.
Elizabeth and John had just settled into their seats when they were joined by Peter and Lt./Dr. Riley Scott.
Elizabeth and Riley had gone to college together and had been roommates for a few years after.
They were in the middle of a particularly raunchy story when the Little Spy joined them.
"So there we were in the school library almost completely naked, and we were just getting ready to make a break for the doors when…" said Riley.
"Excuse me," interrupted Kavanaugh, "Dr. Weir may I speak with you, alone?"
"Of course Dr. Kavanaugh," said Elizabeth as professional mode kicked back in.
She followed him to a table away from where other people were sitting.
She sat down and waited for Kavanaugh to speak.
"Dr. Weir, I believe due to recent facts that I have received that Major Shepard may be compromised and Sgt. Bates should be put in charge of security," said Kavanaugh.
"What facts would those be," asked Elizabeth calmly.
"Witnesses who saw Major Shepard and you outside today and holding hands," started Kavanaugh, "if you two are having a relationship, it severely compromises Major Shepard's judgment making ability."
"Dr. Kavanaugh, Major Shepard has not been compromised, because, not that it's actually any of your business, we aren't in a relationship. When and if ever are, is none of your business," said Elizabeth angrily.
She stood up and walked back to the table and sat next to John.
"The nerve of that man, honestly," mumbled Elizabeth.
"What did he say," asked Riley.
"That John's judgment had been compromised because we were in a relationship, which we aren't Riley," said Elizabeth.
"Just chill out, let's go watch a movie or something," said Riley.
"Sounds good," said Peter.
"And we'll even let you pick Lizzy," said John.
"Hey I never agreed to that," said Riley as they left.
Ten minutes later they were settled on the couch. John was sitting sideways on the couch with Elizabeth leaning on him and Peter was sitting in the armchair with Riley on his lap.
Elizabeth started the movie. Which was a surprise to everyone else, as she wouldn't tell them what she picked.
A few seconds later The Nightmare Before Christmas started.
Two hours later they were all fast asleep.
