Pairing: Nathen & Meva; with mentions of Stephen/Lisa & Nat/OC
Fandom: Medical Investigation
Disclaimer: They aren't mine, it sucks.
Summary: The team is punished for distracting Kate, but now they're bored and have nothing to do. But Kate isn't quite as smart as she think she is, because there is one flaw in her plan. E-Mail. And the team plan to use it to their advantage. Despite the consequences it may have.
A/N: Special thanx to Dr-Who-4-u for helping me with this. Without her none of this would happen.
A/N2: sorry this one is kinda out of wack. I just couldn't get it to go the way I wanted it to. Hope you like
-------------------------------------------
Lunch had been fun, lots of fun, because for those thirty minutes he didn't have to worry about Kate. Then they showed up late, and they were deep shit. Kate yelled a little, threw something, that was most likely expensive, and then proceeded to stand between his and Nat's office's to make sure they didn't try to escape. But he had tried, and failed miserable did he. So much so that Kate sent Nat downstairs and locked her in the lab, she may have had a computer, but now Stephen couldn't see her. He had tried to sneak down there with the excuse of her needing a file, but Kate caught him half way down the stairs and practically dragged him back upstairs, claiming that she would deliver the report on her own.
Sighing he leaned back in his chair and tried to figure out what to write to Nat. He should probably tell her about his little escape maneuver and make sure to warn her about Kate's extremely foul mood. Not that it wasn't foul before, but he figured that him trying to escape and Frank and Miles running around probably didn't help it. He rubbed his hands over his eyes before opening the e-mail program.

From: Connor, Stephen
Subject: Kate!
Nat,
sigh. Well I just thought that I should warn you about Kate. I attempted to escape so that I could "bring you a report" but Kate caught me and dragged me back here. sigh that woman is psycho. Lol. But I just wanted to warn you. Okay? Good.
So… what to talk about? Hmmmm. Did you hear about Frank? He attempted to escape too and Kate sent him downstairs to hang-out with the cafeteria ladies, supposedly he's scared of them. Lol. sigh
Well I have an idea. How about we play the Question Game? I ask you 5 questions and you have to answer truthfully. And then you can ask back. However, you can't ask me the same questions in the same e-mail. Deal? Okay, so here's my questions.
Favorite person? Past & present?
Favorite pastime? (don't you dare say work)
Favorite place? (not work related)
Favorite excuse?
Favorite memory?
Ok. That's all I can think of, so have fun
Stephen
He clicked send and put his feet up on his desk, lacing his hands together behind his head. This should be interesting. He thought to himself.

Natalie was sitting in the lab staring at the computer screen when she heard it beep. Thankful that she had managed to get it to work she click on the e-mail icon and smiled.

Stephen,
Yes, well she has already come down here and warned me that if any more of us try to escape she'll continue our punishment another week. sigh. She is psycho, I know.
Poor Frank, he really does fear those woman. Lol. I don't know who to feel more sorry for. Lol. sigh
Okay, I can go for that. For now, we'll see if I can think of anything to ask. Lol
Answers…
Past? My grandfather – Present? Hmm. That's a toughie. Probably you or Miles
Pastime? Hmm. That's a good one. Probably going to the beach, even though I don't like getting in the water. Or just relaxing. Of course I wouldn't say work, I'm not you now am I?
Place? I would have to say the beach.
Excuse? I honestly don't know. Probably "Frank did it."
Memory? I'm either gonna say the Christmas before I left for college. Or that time we all went to the beach, that was fun.
Well let's see if I can think of anything for you…
Have you ever wanted to have more kids?
What's your favorite food?
If you could relive any moment what would it be?
Where do you see yourself in twenty years?
Would you ever get married again?
Ok. That's all I can think of. Lol.
Write back

Kate was staring at him, he didn't like being stared at, and especially not when it was by his mentally insane boss. He smiled before turning back to his computer screen. He saw her move to Eva's office and sighed. This day was never going to end, and they only had an hour left. He saw the new mail icon flash on his screen and smiled.
Nat,
Ok good. She was just staring at me with this "I will kill you now look". It was quite disturbing. Lol. Poor lunch ladies. sigh
Here's your answer…
more kids? Hmm. Sure. If I found the right woman, Jack says he'd like a little brother or sister, but I'm gonna leave the rest of his sentence off of here.
food? I have no idea. Probably steak. Or Eva's cookies
any moment? Jack being born.
twenty years? Oh God. I have no idea. Probably still here, getting evil glares from Kate. We'll probably be stuck in these offices then
married? Hmm. I honestly don't know. It would have to be the right person and even though I know who that would be. Well yeah, if it were right I would.
And yours…
Have you ever thought of having kids? (it isn't the same so ha)
Where's one place you wanna go before you die?
Ever been kissed in the rain? (sorry Eva is singing to get Kate to go away)
Do you own a little black dress?
Can you cook?
That's all for now. Have fun.
