My life is Hell on Earth

Reno woke with a groan as his alarm clock went off.

He grumbled to himself as he slowly sat up in bed, scratching the back of his head. "Why is the Dmn thing so fcking loud", he groused as he started to change.

'I wonder if I can even go to work today, after what happened yesterday,' he thought. 'After all that chaos, Tseng'll probably stick me on paperwork or something equally as boring.'

He headed for the kitchen, sticking his socks on as he went. After retrieving some old pizza from the fridge, he headed to the door, chewing as he went.

Once his shoes were on, he walked slowly, head down, towards his car.

The bell rang as Reno entered the office, his coworkers glaring at him in annoyance. "What, noone's glad to see me?" he asked with a smirk on his face.

"After what you pulled on Heidegger yesterday?" Tseng growled, anger resonating from him.

"Aww, it wasn't that bad"

"Wasn't that bad? You blew up his TOILET, Reno," Tseng said venomously. "He's had the president on my a$$ all day, and you say it's not that bad?"

"Well… It wasn't that bad for ME, anyway," he said, "Besides, he had it coming and the whole CITY knows it."

Tseng sighed, looking down at his desk as he did so. "That may be so, but you could've hired someone else, so we wouldn't have to take the heat for it."

"You're on my side, right Rude?" he pleaded to his friend.

Rude just raised an eyebrow at him.

"Don't give me that look, you enjoyed it just as much as I did"

"…."

"Ah well, it was SO worth the look on his face."

"Speaking of dreams," he said thoughtfully, "I had the strangest dream last night."

"We weren't talking about dreams," Tseng said dryly.

"So? We are now, aren't we?"

"I dreamed I was back home, swimming in pizza with my brothers." He said thoughtfully. "Or maybe that's what I was thinking after I finished my pizza this morning."

"Whatever, I have an assignment for you two, you've gotta go play bodyguard for an ambassador's daughter," Tseng said, watching the look on Reno's face. "Don't make any passes at her Reno, or it'll be YOUR head on a platter."

"Whatever gave you THAT impression, m' dear Tsenggy boy?"

"Never. EVER. Call me that again, Reno." He said, annoyance clear in his face. " You two ready?"

Rude nodded, as Reno grabbed a grenade from his desk drawer. "Absolutely, Tsenggy, just tell us where to head." Tseng flicked a look of annoyance at Reno before turning to a schedule on the wall.

"Here's what you've gotta do…"

A/N: SO SORRY! IT SHOULDNT'VE TAKEN SO LONG AND I BEG OF YOU NOT TO HATE ME!
