Can't Quite Explain It:

Summary:

During a mission, even though they are apart, Nicky gets hit by a well-known feeling regarding Joe, something Nile doesn't believe in at all.

Notes:

(See the end of the work for notes.)

Work Text:

Nicky stopped walking before he rubbed his temples with a groan.

 

Nile: "What's with you?"

Nicky: "Joe, he has done something stupid."

 

Nile stared at Nicky.

 

Nile: "Sorry, what? There are over 500 miles between you two, so how can you know that Joe has done something stupid? Are you a telepath or something?"

Nicky: "Can't quite explain it, but when you have been with someone for as long as I've been with Joe, I just know when he does something stupid."

Nile: "I need to check if you're right or not."

 

Nile texted Booker, and five minutes later, she got a reply that made her laugh.

 

Nile: "You were right, Nicky. Joe did do something stupid. Wanna see photos of it?"

Nicky: "Yeah, let me see what Joe has done this time."

 

Nile showed Nicky the photo of Joe, who had fallen into the harbour because he didn't watch where he walked while drawing Nicky. In the next photo, you could see a very wet Joe sitting on the ground with Andy standing next to him, and it was clear to Nile and Nicky what Andy was saying. They both laughed over the photos.

 

Nicky: "At least it isn't the most stupid Joe has done."

Nile: "Uh, interesting. Please tell me more."

Nicky: "Well, what about that time...."

 

They resumed their walk while Nicky told Nile a story that made her laugh so hard that her ribs hurt in a good way.
