"Little one, are you okay?" Simon mutters as the briefing begins — but for now, it’s just the two of you, the first ones there.

"Your face is flushed, your eyes are clouded..."

You just fidgeted, saying that you were okay. You wanted to leave, so as not to arouse suspicion that you were together. But on the other hand, you remembered how much he loved you last night... He can be an incredibly affectionate man, despite the fact that he is a killing machine.

"You see, Simon Riley, I remembered last night - and I got really hot," you couldn't help but tease him... you know how to get under his skin...

"Stay after the briefing," he said, reaching out to you and gently squeezing your hand.
