Hope you enjoyyyy!
Becker sighed dejectedly as he looked at the cup of tea in his hands.
"Why can no one make tea as well as Sam?"
"That your question for the day?" Connor teased.
"That yours?" The soldier shot back.
"Alright girls! Keep your knickers on! I thought of a good question earlier." Abby said. "What's the worst thing you've ever done to someone? Not like… killing- that's aimed at you Becker- but something you've done unnecessarily."
Becker looked unashamed. "I don't think it was unnecessarily done, but it was pretty harsh. I don't regret it either. I ruined an ex-girlfriends date."
"My opinion of you just plummeted." Matt spoke in a deadpan voice.
"Why would you do that?"
"She was still dating me at the time. It's why she's an ex."
"THE COW!" Abby's response was expected, anyone who acted like that was automatically in her bad books.
"What did you do?"
"It was in a large but quite café." Becker looked around then continued. "I may have asked her, pretty loudly, if she'd had any luck with her STI…"
"You didn't!" Jess gasped. "I can't believe you would do something like that!"
"For how long had you been going out? What was the other guy like? Had she been cheating on you for long?" Abby's questions came out in a rush.
"I didn't ask and she didn't tell. Just the fact she was there with him that once was enough."
"Your trust once lost is lost forever?"
"Something like that, yeah."
"I can't believe someone would do that to you." Jess then realised what she said. "Well, I mean anyone obviously. Not just you, although it is a shock that someone would do that to you but it happens to other people as well and that's horrible too." She blushed and looked down.
Jess was saved from further blubbering embarrassment as Sam rushed into the break room. She made for the island and leant against it, her weight pressed onto her hands, rocking back and forth, breathing hard.
"You okay there? You look like you've seen a ghost." Matt peered at the girl's face.
"Leroy been trying to perv at you in the changing rooms again?" Becker winked.
"Hey! As my boss you ought to take that harassment more seriously!" Though her voice was strong, Sam still looked pale as she waved a finger in his direction. "And no… it was…" Sam took a deep breath letting it out slowly. "So, so, so, much worse." She spoke while a shudder wracked her entire body. "You got any acid in that lab of yours, Connor? I need to gouge my eyes out. That is never going to go… God, I need a pay rise."
The group didn't say anything, just waited for Sam's breathing to calm down. After a few seconds Becker spoke again.
"Pay rise?"
She nodded. "For the therapy." Sam took another deep breath. "I just went to talk to Lester and he… he…"
"He did what?"
"It's not what he did but what he was," Sam rolled an arm in front of her as she spoke, "already doing."
There was a split second as the team froze.
"What was he doing?" Jess leaned forward on the sofa.
Sam's lower lip shook and she shivered as she searched for the courage to say the word they were waiting for.
"Yoga."
Eaugh!
Can you imagine?
No. Don't!
I have to thank starzee for the mental image there. I couldn't work it in the way I prefered but hey, you can't have everything.
Lemme know what you thought! And more questions please!
Thanks!
