Pretend Relatives
Chapter 13
Jack walked out with a pitcher of lemonade and 7 glass cups on a tray. Black gloves and masks where spread about the room. Alex had insisted that the guns be propped along the wall so as not to worry Janelle, who was sinking deep into the plush chair until she seemed to barely be there. Jack on the other hand was right at home with all the men. She swung her hips as she walked in the room and poured them their lemonade flirting in every way ever invented clearly she needed to get out more.
K-unit seemed to be having the time of their lives too, they didn't come in contact with girls like Jack who where tomboyish but still wore skirts and could do anything in a pair of heels. All four of them were sitting on the couch one on each arm and the other two were squeezed in the center it would be a funny sight if they weren't all geared up for a war. Wolf coughed a little as Jack sat down next to Alex on the love seat.
"Thank you so much Miss. Starbright. Sorry about the intrusion, but we were ordered here and yeah…" He brought the lemonade glass to his lips and took a huge gulp. It took all of Alex's strength not to fall to the floor laughing right there. Wolf was nervous around Jack and now that he looked closer at the others they all looked about ready to jump out of their skin.
"Oh it's no problem I understand you didn't have much of a choice. I guess this doesn't happen often, the whole finding more than bad guys and the person you are supposed to save thing. So do you have something to call you by? Or should I call you the agents?" Wolf stood up from the center of the couch and offered Jack his hand.
"I am Wolf the leader of this unit."
"I am Eagle the awesome one of this unit." His voice was dripping with pride but when Wolf sent a glare his way, Eagle seemed to shrink back a little. Snake laughed as he introduced himself.
"I am Snake the medic, or the mother to the group I have to make all their boo-boo's better." He winked slyly at Jack
"I bet you know how that feels." He gestured towards Alex. A hand come out of nowhere and smacked the back of his head.
"And I am Be….. Fox."
"Ow! Fox no hurting the medic. It's like a golden rule you hurt me no one can save you." The hand was back again and Fox earned two hits on the back of his head. Wolf sighed and his head fell into his hands. Alex almost felt sorry for the guy, looking at the team like this he could see a family Wolf was the father Snake the mother Eagle the obnoxious little child and Fox the college kid who knew it all. This realization brought a smile on his face as he looked at the people around him.
The K-unit was relaxed but only to a point, Jack was soaking up all the male attention not that she would ever admit to it. Then he turned to Janelle she looked like she wanted to run out of the room but then a glance at the front window seemed to change her mind and she would just sink deeper into the chair. Alex reached over and cupped his hands around her ear and whispered
"Should I save you from the man eating chair? I never took you as a damsel in distress." She sat bolt up and glared at Alex.
"And you never will." Slowly Janelle got up and walked into the kitchen, when she emerged a box of chocolate chip cookies in her hand. Ripping open the plastic she set them down in front of the K-Unit. Their eyes followed her every move as she drew out a stack of cookies and pushed the pack towards them.
"Please help your selves."
The poor cookies barely had a chance. They were gone before Janelle had settled in her chair and bravely crossed her legs.
"So I know ninja boy over here is Mr. Double-O-Seven but who are the four animals in all black sitting in the living room?" Eagle mumbled under his breath
"Double-O-Nothing" the nickname brought a frown to Wolf and Fox's faces different from the smirk which graced both Snake and Eagle's faces. Their faces didn't compare to the pink that was spreading over Alex's face. Janelle threw back her head and laughed at Alex.
But out of all the people, Jack was the one with the biggest smile. She was so happy that Alex was acting more his age even if it was with a bunch of highly trained grown men and one teenage girl who was responsible for all of this. Once she caught her breath Janelle waved her hands in front of her face trying to calm herself down.
"Okay that is so good I must remember to use that some time. So back to my first question who are you?"
"Well I'm Eagle and this is…" Before he could finish a death glare was sent his way.
"We are people who are here to keep you safe and that is all you need to know." Fox had such seriousness in his voice that even Janelle didn't feel like arguing. Jack stood up sighing. Leaning over the table she grabbed the empty cookie box.
"Well I take it you boys are hungry so who is up for some order out pizza?" Six heads poked up with happy smiles.
"Before I order I just need to know how many pieces each of you will eat?"
