Agency
Part 2
Disclaimer: Here we go!
Summary: To say Ellie's perplexed and in disbelief by her little brother's move to become a Private Detective would perhaps be understating things.
"What!? No! That's, that's not awesome, Devon!" Called out Ellie as she watched the high 5 moment between her fiance and her brother.
Together, the two looked at her and as one asked her a question. "Why not!?"
"B-Because! That's not something you know anything about, Chuck! Computers, Video Games, and, and Nerdy stuff. That's what you know! Is this Morgan's idea?" Ellie asked with her arms crossed.
For she'd have a word with the Little Man about putting ideas in her brother's head, damnit! "Uhh, no, actually, it was all mine. And besides, I won't be dealing with the investigative stuff all that much."
Although that was a lie but neither his sister or Devon needed to know that! "Is that right? And what exactly will you be doing, little brother? Because being a secretary is beneath you. And also, who else did you rope into this, this ridiculous idea of yours?"
"I'm gonna be handling the cyber security side of the business, Sis. As for who else I got 'roped' into this, I got Sarah and Casey to agree to it. Especially since I knew that both of them had previous experiences in certain lines of work that I promised I wouldn't go into with anyone else."
And as he figured it would happen, his sister zeroed in on one aspect of that response. "You're working with Sarah on this!?" She asked excitedly.
"Yep! She was getting tired of the Weinerlicious and when I brought up my idea she jumped on it in a flash."
"Aww, that's so sweet! But won't this make it difficult for you and her considering the two of you broke up? Something that I've hated a great deal of by the way?" Ellie told him archly.
It also hadn't been the first time she'd shared that opinion either. "It might, but that's just something we'll have to face if and when we come to that bridge, El." He replied.
Sure, he still felt quite a bit towards Sarah but Chuck didn't think there would be any big issues. Besides, its not like Sarah actually felt anything serious towards him besides friendship and having that was something he was happy about for the most part. "Well, you'll have to forgive me if I start to get really hopeful or pushy about this idea of yours getting you two back together somehow."
"Let's not get ahead of ourselves now but I'll keep the forgiveness part in mind."
Ellie glared at him a little but he could see the corners of her lips twitching. Indicating she was trying to keep from smiling. But then she grew serious. "I have to ask, why this? Why a Private Detective agency? Even with the whole cyber thing its still something that doesn't make sense to me. Especially when it could get you hurt."
"Wow, no concern for Sarah or Casey?" Chuck asked jokingly.
She fixed him a look and he went serious. "Look at it this way, its me finally getting out of the Buy More. And I know there's risks involved but I've got Sarah and Casey to watch my back if something happens. And again, I can't go into why they are anymore suited to this idea than me since I promised but they are capable." He assured her.
Ellie let out a sigh. "Okay, but I reserve the right to tell you 'I told you so' when this goes really bad." She told him sternly.
"So noted!"
"I still think this is totally awesome." Enthused a mostly quiet Devon with a smile on his face, making Ellie roll her eyes.
"You would."
