A/N First of all I have no claim to Covert Affairs. I just like to play with the characters.

At least next week is not described as "season" fianle which probabably means more episodes most likely come winter.

Warning: not so subtle references to another TV show. The idea came to me after waay too little sleep. This fic is definitely humor.

QUIT BUGGING ME

Exterminate-verb-to get rid of completely usually by killing off

The accommodations on Annie's last op had been less than stellar in fact pretty much which matched the description fleabag. But beggars can't be choosers and with no other accommodations around she was forced to endure nearly a week there before being able to fly on home. She was unknowingly taking along a few unwanted hitch hikers but would find out soon enough.

Arriving back at Langley Annie was debriefed and informed she was needed on another op almost immediately. So it was home for the first decent shower in almost a week. After tossing her clothes in the hamper she left her suitcase to air out and set about making sure all her passports and other tools of her trade were carefully locked away. Just in case Danielle or her nieces might have excuse to visit the guesthouse. Still unaware of the hitch hikers Annie headed back to Langley

The bugs decided that they liked their new home and quickly found places to settle into the few becoming many as they were left undisturbed.

As luck would have it Danielle and the girls paid a visit to the guesthouse where the bugs were quick to catch a ride with them and move into more spacious accommodations.

They were unfortunately discovered a few days later when Katia woke up to find a few bites in on her arms and seeing a bug on her blankets. And like a lot of little girls upon seeing a bug she screamed, loudly.

Danielle quickly hurried into the room asking, "What's wrong?"

"Bug bit me," Katia said through her tears.

"What bug?" her mother asked. Looking to where the little girl was pointing Danielle quickly recognized the offending invader having seen a news report on that very subject the night before. "You go clean up while I take care of the nasty bug and then I'l take a look at your bites."

"Okay, Mommy," the little girl said sounding still tearful.

That afternoon when Annie arrived back at Danielle's house she was greeted by her definitely not happy sister. "Hey, what's going on?" the younger woman asked.

"Annie, did you know that there are bedbugs in the guesthouse?" Danielle asked.

"Uh, no. They must have been in my suitcase when I got home last week. I must have picked them up at the hotel I was staying at," Annie replied.

"And now they're in this house," her sister continued.

"Oh no. Did you call an exterminator?" Annie asked in dismay.

"Not yet. I just found out this morning when a bug bit Katia," Danielle replied. "I had to take her to the pediatrician to make sure she was okay."

"I'll handle everything, Danielle. You and Michael and the girls go find someplace to stay and I'll make sure the bugs are all gone by Sunday night I promise," Annie said quickly.

"They'd better. I have a catering job lined up for next week. Can you image what this would do to my business if word got out?" Danielle stated.

"It won't," Annie replied. "Now go get packed and get out of here. What were you doing in the guesthouse in the first place?"

"Looking to see if you had any old magazines Chloe could use in a school project," Danielle answered.

Pulling out her phone Annie quickly went through her yellow pages app looking for exterminators. Finding one she quickly read the brief ad. Dalek Exterminators We exterminate, terminate. Call us now for a free determinate.

Deciding that that sounded as good an exterminator as any Annie quickly made the call. The phone was answered by a male voice saying, "This is Dalek Exterminators. You got it we can exterminate it. How can I help you?"

"I've got a bedbug infestation," Annie replied."

"Give me the address and I'll send a few of my boys out to have a look see," the man answered.

Annie quickly gave the address and asked, "How soon can you get here?"

"We'll be there in an hour. You just hang tight," the man said and ended the call.

"Did you call the exterminator?" Danielle asked.

"Yeah, they'll be here within the hour," Annie replied.

By the time the extermination van showed up Danielle and the girls had headed out with promises to let Annie know where they ended up. Annie was waiting outside when she saw the van pull up and two men in grey jumpsuits get out and approach.

One of the men a man with a floppy mop of dark curly hair stuck out his hand saying, "I'm Tom and this is Peter. You the one that called?"

"Yes, I'm Annie Walker. I unknowingly brought bedbugs back from a trip earlier this week. They're in my place here and also the main house," the young woman explained.

"Now you find somewhere to spend the night and when you come back you'll find the both houses bedbug free. When we Daleks set out to exterminate something it's a done deal," Tom said reassuringly.

"I hope so otherwise I think my sister just may end up killing me," Annie replied. Send me the bill."

"Will do," Peter answered and wandered over to the van to start unloading equipment.

Deciding not to take anything out of the guesthouse Annie headed to her car planning to stop at a large discount store and pick up a few things. Having decided against staying with either Auggie who did not have a guest room and Jai who did, Annie settled on a rather nice hotel with indoor pool to spend the night and next day.

Returning to the house the next evening Annie still found the place still smelling somewhat of the chemicals and the place carefully swept with not a bug living or dead to be found. Even the clothes in her hamper had been taken and laundered to get them free of the bugs. The same was to be said of the main house. Pulling out her phone the young woman quickly called Danielle and said, "It's safe to come home. There's nothing left to bug you."
