Three hours have passed since the airport. Hannah left and Luke and the girls went straight to the Agency where Phil received them and took them to the meeting room. He proceeded to call up all the first class agents for a meeting in 30 minutes before he turned around and spoke to the team.
"Thanks for coming so quickly, I didn't know if you could make it"
"That's alright, it wasn't very easy cause, well, try to explain your parent you're going to England for some time with no purpose more than the fact that you needed to finally meet that aunt you have never actually met but we managed to do it anyways"
"Wait, and your parents believed you?" Luke asked, stunned.
"We are very good liars, Luke" Clary said.
"But that doesn't even make sense!"
"Trust me, we are good"
Lucy and Clary looked at each other and smiled, thinking of some internal joke.
Luke hadn't said a word about Lucy's channel, even if he truly wanted to but he had realized she was avoiding eye contact for some reason. Phil finally broke the silence.
"So, girls, this is Luke, I guess you've already met by now, he is going to work with you and help you with whatever you need during your stay in London".
"Does that mean I'm one of the main agents of the mission?" Luke asked excited.
"No, that means you get to help the main agents".
"Yeah, no offence but what makes this girls better than me?"
"Listen you, asshole, we've worked hard to get where we are, we've done things that you can't even imagine and we have given up to our own youtube carriers. We're not even allowed to…to…to fangirl anymore!" Clary looked quite upset.
"Fangirl?"
"Yes, fangirl, how do you think they started investigating?" Phil added.
This seem so stupid to Luke.
"You mean you're not fangirls anymore? What would happen if you still were?"
Lucy started screaming and run up to Phil. She hugged him and said something among the words OHMYGODOHMYGODOHMYGOD. Then she screamed a bit more and stopped. Phil looked scared.
"That would happened, any more questions?"
"Nope, Sir" he was a bit scared too.
"Good"
Luckily for Luke, the others came in the room and everyone sat down. The girls started looking for stuff in their bags and took some papers out.
The whole room got silent and everyone stared at the girls. Dan was late this time too, but he managed to get in without calling everyone's attention this time (even tho Phil saw him).
"Right, gentleman I…" Lucy paused and looked over at Phil "do you mind if I skip the formal part? We all know all of us aren't actually that serious"
"Alright, I like her" Emma said.
"Sure, why not" Phil replied with a smile. Even if the girls weren't exactly fangirling they couldn't stop thinking he was adorable.
"Cool. Hey there, I'm Lucy and this is Clary and we're here to help. The objective of this mission is to intercept Charlie McDonnell and get him to the Command Station of the YSS as soon as possible. There's one witness, 22 first class agents and our entire dedication is focused on this. Any questions?"
"Wait, you're gonna need more first class agents?" that was Tim.
"Yeah, we are, we can't do this alone, you know?" Clary said.
"The center will provide you with all the help you need" Phil said.
"So we are going to need some time to organize ourselves and we'll tell you whenever your assistance is required".
"Amazing, now everybody back to work!" Phil was such a boss sometimes.
Everyone was headed out of the room which gave the girls a chance to observe them. Tim looking at Lex's butt. Carrie seeming quite tense. Fleur and Bethan quietly insulting each other. It was a bit of a jungle.
"Oh shit, I can't find my phone" Clary said to Lucy "I must have left it in the big suitcase, I'll be back in a minute"
"Alright, I'll be waiting here".
This gave Lucy the time to focus on Phil who was following Dan with his eyes as he got out of the room.
She got closer to him and whispered "Go talk to him, it's time that you too solve this".
Phil didn't even care that she knew they weren't friends anymore. He just wanted his friend back, he was tired of ignoring each other, and they needed to face the problem.
"Maybe you're right" he answered and ran to catch up with Dan.
She watched him go and turn around to look for something when she noticed there was still someone in the room. Luke.
"Wow you scared me, I thought I was the only left" she said, a bit uncomfortable.
"Sorry, I didn't mean it".
There was an awkward silence.
"Uh, so…where are you from again?" He asked.
Lucy smirked "I can't tell you that"
"Right, I know, sorry. And…you used to have a youtube channel?"
"A while ago, yes, that's how they found me and Clary"
"Really? What was the name of your channel?"
Lucy started to look pale and nervous.
"Uh…It…it doesn't really matter, I'm never going to use it again, am I?"
"Lucy, you remember me, don't you?"
"What? No, I just met you, I've never seen you before in my life"
"Remember the shout outs? The collabs? We were youtube friends!"
She started walking away.
"No I don't. Now if you excuse me I need to get some work done…"
"You used to have a crush on me"
Lucy tripped.
