HAHA!! I'm alive again, after hauling myself out of a massive pile of homework! And I'm
updating my stories! ::waves a little flag:: And I started a new Highlander based fic which I am
still working on… I promise to update my stories, and then some teacher goes and assigns a
major project. Like the day I told StarRuby I'd update, I got a social studies project that was
due the next day!
Well, on to the next chapter of Birds Of A Feather!!

Chapter Six

"I said it before and I'll say it again, we don't need somebody following us around so we don't
argue!" Jake complained for the fifth time.
"I know you said it before, and I'm getting sick of it! I heard you the first four times!" Sara
yelled.
"You don't have to bite my head off!"
"If it's the only way I can get you to shut up, I have to."
Jake got up and started pacing the room. He was acting like a caged animal, and it was really
annoying Sara…
……………………………………………………..
"Okay, Andie, please don't kill me, but there is one more thing." Matt begged.
"What is this "one more thing" that you didn't tell me about before?"
"There's going to be another rookie…" Matt whimpered.
"Another one?? Oh, God this is not my day, and tomorrow is not looking too promising.
Lemme guess, a male, right?"
"Yup. Name's Jake McCarty."
"Jake? He's been in the business as long as I have! He's FBI, not some rookie!"
"Sure, Andie…"
"What, you think I'm crazy or something? You can't blame me though, can you? The way my
life has been going…"
"No, you're not crazy, just Jake is a rookie."
"From California. I know him. I have since high school. He went FBI, I remember it."
"Uh-huh." Matt nodded.
"What, you wanna see the yearbook? Or, better idea, why don't you ask him?"
……………………………………………………….
"Jake, will you quit pacing like that?! Back and forth, back and forth…. Are you trying to drive
me crazy?!"
Jake flopped down in his desk chair and said, "No. Just thinking."
Sara thought about saying 'Didn't know that was possible' but realized that was probably why
Dante was pulling in this other detective to "keep the peace" and settled for asking "What are
you thinking about?"
"The name, you said this transferred detective was named Andrea, right?"
"Yeah…" Sara replied, staring intently at Jake and waiting for him to continue.
"Just that I knew a girl named Andrea in high school. She was a lot like you, come to think of
it…"
"Like me? How?" Sara asked. She narrowed her eyes and waited for the insults.
"Ummm… Made her own rules a lot of the time, short temper, went into the same
profession…"
Sara thought, 'Wow, no insult…' "So this could be the same girl you knew in school?"
"Maybe…" Jake said. He seemed sort of hopeful.
A/N: There, another chapter finished. Sorry about all the talking but it's kinda hard to do an
office scene without it being mostly dialogue. There, new connection for you people to ponder
over. Hope you like it, at least somewhat. Please review.
