Well this sucks
All day Maggie was worrying about getting sick. She was a little overwhelmed about not being able to go to the her second date with Alex.
They were dating within 3 weeks already after the whole rejection.
But now their good, even more then good, they are great. The first week was a little overwhelming in a good way. So things began to feel better during the days. Alex wanted to go slow, Maggie was respectful about it.
She was still at work when she felt kind of dizzy and a little bit of lightheaded but she sucked it up and kept working.
Hours later her colleague john came into her office, he stoped and looked at her and said "why are you still here? shouldn't you be home by now? aren't....you a workaholic?" He teased and gave her a crooked smile.
"Geez why so many questions" Maggie asked looking up from her work. "i'am fine" Maggie was there all day, she was really tired.
Jonh frowned "ok well unless you don't want to sleep here I suggest you go home".
She gave him squinted eyes and a arched brow "why are we closing" with that john dangled the keys in front of her.
"Yeah" he said moments later of staring at her, he began "Boss said to go home" jonh continued dangling the keys on his finger.
The boss didn't really say that but, he cared for Maggie after all they were close friends. He just wanted Maggie to get some rest, she looked like a zombie but he was not gonna tell her that.
god knows what will happen to him if he did.
"Well Iam still staying" she gave him a competitive look and continued with her work. Knowing that he was lying.
He finally answered "well you give me no choice" he said walking toward her and putting his hands on her papers bringing them down so they are flat on the desk and put his hands on them with a 'thud'.
Maggie stoped and looked up she was a little frustrated but cracked a smile. Seeing jonh a bit mad made her want to laugh.
He pointed a finger at her and started "If you don't get out of here Iam going to..... he trailed off thinking of what to say next .
Maggie beat him to it.
"You'll what.....fire me" she crossed her arms over her chest and laughed for a short time until she heard "yes" from her boss coming behind john.
John turned around and the room went silent both john and Maggie's eyes widen.
They both look up at their boss
standing in the door way looking at them.
Boss clears his throat "you" he pointed to Maggie "better go home, get some rest, it's okay he didn't even smile."
her boss came in further into the room, he was now close to Maggie's desk jonh stepped out so he was now at the door way.
Maggie was in shock she didn't know what to say She looked at him and then over his shoulder to see jonh mouthing 'your gonna get fired if you don't leave.....this is all your fault'.
Maggie turned back to her boss and gulped hard "well....sir...iam almost done....I.... just need a few minutes" she said nervelessly.
John was hearing everything so when he heard maggie talk he wanted to laugh and then he couldn't hold it.
Boss looked at her in the eyes and said " iam kidding" with a smile and a small chuckle " you are one of the best detectives here in the NCPD.....swayer I couldn't fire you ever".
John stopped laughing. John and Maggie went stiff both realizing that their boss never joked. His voice was deeep so when he talked he sounded like he was going to slice you in half.
It was super weird.
"Okay....thanks boss" she replied it was all Maggie could say.
Maggie could see Jonh trying to hold his laughter, he was really amused by the scene.
She snapped back to her boss.
Boss then continued "but if you don't leave right know I will not only fire you I will fire" he turned around so he was facing jonh "jonh too" john smile faded away and Maggie laughed.
Seeing that the conversation was over and the boss started walking twords John. John smiled even though he was scared, John moved aside so he was now in the hallway so his boss could step out.
After their boss was out of sight john stood where he was seconds ago, he looked at Maggie.
"Maggie we should probably go'" he said in a high pitched voice.
Stepping in to the room once again he began "Maggie.... I don't know if you realized....but I don't plan to get shot and then fired...HERE!". He raised his voice at the last word
It made Maggie laugh harder. John just scowled at her. Getting over her laughter she looked at John and smirked. "So you would rather get killed some....where else" she asked.
John stepped in closer not answering her question. "I mean have you seen his eyes" jonh pointed at his own eyes "and the way he joked just now".
"Why you scared?" Maggie chuckled.
He sighed."If I say yes will that get you to go home" he pleaded. Putting his together.
Maggie smiled and gathered her papers, stood up went to her metal drawer and got a folder out. She then took the papers that were completely straightned and put them into the folder she grabbed the folder and placed it in her satchel pack and swung it over her shoulder. She would just have to finish it at home.
Jonh threw his hands in the air when he saw Maggie taking the files with her "seriously" he said
He stepped back for Maggie to take his place in the doorway.
Maggie was now in the door way she gave him a smirk and walked out "he never said to not take it home". Maggie called over her shoulder.
John pinched the bridge of his nose and sighed "Ok whatever......you win" he said catching up to maggie, so now he was walking next to her
John glanced at her and asked " so....any plans for this Saturday.
"No....why do u ask" Maggie turned her head so she was know facing him.
John shrugged "you seem quiet..... your never that quite....and when you are quiet" he paused until he realized. "that means only one thing" he smiled giving her a 'I know what it is' look.
Knowing he knew, that she knew that look she still asked before saying anything."And what's that" she eyed him until they both stopped in front of the outside front station door way.
"You have a date.....don't you" john's smile and eyes widened. Maggie didn't replie, so he knew a fact he was right because of the silence. he started "so.....who is this person that has you...tied up".
"This person does not have me tied up" she rolled her eyes "yet" she said with a smirk and a wink. "And Iam not telling you" she said in a straight face.
"Why not" he pouted and crossed his arms over his chest.
"Because it's none of your bussness" she argued.
"Come on.... Iam almost your best friend, and you owe me".
"Is....that right" she said.
"Yes" he simply said.
"Why is that" she smiled
"Because I saved your ass on....one mission, so you owe me" John glared.
"no....you didn't.... it was the other way around" she scoffed. "Plus I didn't even need your help.....you just came in and helped me....so no I don't owe you.
"No...you know you owe me..... I saved your ass.... your just to stubborn to say it....because you think" he trailed off, sounding a bit angry at her denial.
And with not even finishing his sentence Maggie frowned then she got pissed and then she was finally angry. Wow she escalates quickly.
"I think....what....that I think I don't need anyone to get my ass...out of anything" she was tired of people always assuming things. Yes she doesn't need anyone's help but she just doesn't like to be assumed by other people. And she's about to reach her limit. She sighed and then looked at him died in the eyes.
He looked at her and sighed knowing she hated people assuming things about her, he apologized.
John looked down at his feet not wanting to look at her in the eyes. "Look... Maggie that's not what meant... I just... Iam sorry...okay" seeing the look on her face he knew she was definitely pissed.
She was angry. Once Maggie was angry nothing could take it away, until she found something to punch or drive her motorcycle as fast as she could, mostly drinking, sure it was dangerous but she didn't care about anything when she was like this.
John waited for her to answer, dark eyes staring at him.
"Well maybe.... the reason I don't rely on people is because" she trailed off and sighed "you know what.... Iam not dealing with this" she said in a tired manner and walked out of the building, into the parking lot.
John followed her. "Come on... Iam sorry okay........ Maggie" Maggie kept walking, when he was close to her, he grabbed her wrist and she didn't even bother to turn around.
"Get your hand.....offf me" she growled. And john let go.
There were now close to her bike she turned around and eyed him again, she sighed and stepped a few feet further so she now was on her bike. John stood in the side of the bike.
"Maggie Iam sorry I just....got carried away with the whole you dating thing" jonh said.
She turned on her bike and looked at John's apologetic face, she sighed.
"look.....John.....I know you did mean that.... but Iam.....just tired" she stated still angry but she tried to calm down.
"I'll see you tomorrow....okay". John said sad written all over his face. he knew he skrewed up he was gonna have to find another way to apologize. she nodded and then drove off.
John Looked straight until she disappeared. He got into his car feeling guilty he had to do something to make her lighten up. One simple apology was not gonna cut it, knowing Maggie four almost 4 years, he knew exactly what to do, with that, he drove off as well.
As Maggie drove off she couldn't shake the anger off, it was impossible. So she did the only thing she has always done when she was angry 'drive fast'. She speeded up clearly not caring if something did happen to her.
Maggie hated being angry, and she became furious at that thought.
Speeding up even more than before, she could feel the cool breeze of the city she loved the air it helped her relax a little
The conversation once again popped in to her thoughts, she could still basically hear the conversation going on and on in her head it made her dizzy.
Back to getting angry again and deep in her thoughts she missed the red light and then "BOOM".
The last thing she saw was darkness.
