Wanna Borrow The Watergun?

Summary:

Notes:

(See the end of the work for notes.)

Work Text:

Nile: "So, anything I need to know before going on the mission with Joe and Nicky?"

Booker: "Before a mission, make sure you have money on you for a cab because there is a big chance that you'll be forgotten in a parking lot if one of them wants pie."

 

Booker drinks the rest of the wine.

 

Booker: "And when Joe and Nicky get too handsy, get a room there are at least four doors away from their room. But if that isn't possible, use a water gun and remind them that this isn't Malta but a mission."

 

Andy swallows the last of the noodles.

 

Andy: "After a mission, make sure there is at least an ocean between you and Joe and Nicky for a minimum of two months."

 

Nile stares at Andy and Booker.

 

Andy: "We're messing with you, Nile. Joe and Nicky know what they're doing, so just follow their lead, and you'll be fine. Or at least I hope."

 

Andy looks over at the sofa where Joe and Nicky are trying to get the best out of an evening before a mission. By the noises coming from them, it's clear they have forgotten they aren't alone in the safe house.

 

Andy in her big sister voice: "Hey, kids, there are others who are using that sofa, so find somewhere else as far away from the rest of us."

Joe: "You're going to miss us when we leave, Boss."

 

Nicky drags Joe out of the living room.

 

Andy muttering to herself: "Yeah, just like I'm missing the plague."

 

Booker poked Nile in the side to get her attention.

 

Booker whispering: "Do you want to borrow the water gun?"

 

Nile nods as a reply.

 

Note:

Joe actually once forgot Booker in a parking lot when Nicky wanted pie. Joe first realized it when they got back to the safe house at dawn and found a wet, smouldering, angry Booker on the sofa, who had to walk twenty miles back home.
