Work Text:
Joe looked at Nicky, who was in the shower. Andy had given them strict instructions to shower separately.
Nicky: "Why me?"
Joe: "Because the target thinks he is meeting an Italian broker."
Nicky: "You speak Italian, so why not you?"
Joe: "Because I'm not a hot Italian!"
Nicky: "Can't you just say you're adopted like the last time?"
Joe: "Andy made it very clear that we are never saying I'm adopted again after the events in Stockholm. I don't understand why."
Nicky: "Because you punched a German diplomat."
Joe: "No, that was his secretary, and he had it coming when he placed his hand on your ass for the second time after you told him not to do it."
Nicky: "And because you did that, you forgot all about which city 'The Leaning Tower' is in, which blew your cover when you kept on insisting it was Paris to the diplomat."
Joe: "Not my finest moment, considering I saw the tower being built."
Nicky took the towel.
Joe: "The finest ass in the entire world."
Nicky threw the wet towel after Joe, but before Joe could do anything, it knocked on the door.
Andy: "Get out here, Joe. Now!"
Joe: "How does she do it?"
Nicky: "She is Andy."
Joe: "Remember to put this on."
Joe threw a tie to Nicky before leaving Nicky alone for five minutes.
Joe: "Can you believe Andy made me change my jacket and almost burned my new cap? She said something about that I was not dating you tonight."
Nicky, as he leaves the bathroom: "She is right. Now you look more like a bodyguard."
Nicky noticed the big smile on Joe's face.
Nicky: "What? I'm wearing the tie as you asked me to do."
Joe: "As much as I appreciate you wearing a tie like that, I don't think Andy would appreciate it."
Nicky is only wearing a tie.
Joe: "So it's with a heavy heart I have to ask you to put a shirt and pants on, but when we return from the mission, I'm gonna draw you naked with only the tie on."
Nicky: "Nothing new there. And let me guess: Once you have drawn me, you know exactly what else you can use the tie for."
Joe's laughter told Nicky he was right about the last thing. After a kiss, they left for the mission.
