Trooper Station - Saturday

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

Roy had taken up position in the lobby, near the radio. With RoboCon going on, it seemed a wise idea to keep an eyes on things so the troopers were on alert. While robots weren't mercenaries, it was never a bad idea to be cautious.

In the meantime, Roy had paperwork to catch up on while he kept an eye on things. It happened when he didn't pull as many night shifts as he used to.

It wasn't like the station wouldn't have coffee, but it had become a kind of tradition for Aly to bring coffee and pastries so there she was, pushing the door open with her hip as she balanced the bags from the Perk and J,Gob in her hands.

Roy glanced up, instantly smiling as he saw who it was and he slid his feet off the desk, straightening up. "Have you come to rescue me?"

[tricksy-spy.livejournal.com]

"What, from laziness?" she teased.

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

"Boredom," he corrected, getting to his feet to help her with the bags.

"You, General Mustang?" Aly asked, sounding shocked. "Bored while doing your duty? I can't imagine it."

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

"It's a rarity," he agreed, freeing her of the Perk bag and leaning in to steal a quick kiss. "Thank you."

Aly kissed him back laughingly. "You're welcome. And now I've done my task so good bye."

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

"Nah huh!" came the eloquent protest and his free hand reached for her waist to stop her from leaving him.

[tricksy-spy.livejournal.com]

She laughed, stopping easily enough that she'd obviously just been teasing. "That bad?"

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

"Or maybe you're just that good," he grinned at her.

[tricksy-spy.livejournal.com]

"That part's a given," she pointed out, leaning in for another kiss.

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

Kisses were good. Kisses weren't boring. His hand slid to the small of her back as he drew the contact out, clearly having missed her since this morning.

"So I should entertain you, hmm?" Aly teased, pulling away again and setting the J,GOB bag on the desk.

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

"I should have thought that was obvious," he put the bag beside hers and opened it, drawing out the two cups.

[tricksy-spy.livejournal.com]

She held her hand out for her coffee. "You think everything's obvious," she pointed out.

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

"When you're as observant as me, everyone is obvious," he said modestly as he checked the cup to make sure it was hers before he handed the coffee to her.

"Why do I think you're right in line for an ego popping?" Aly asked, shaking her head with amusement.

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

"I have no idea," he said airily. "Now drink your coffee."

[tricksy-spy.livejournal.com]

"If you're going to stay in Sheriff mode, I'm leaving," she pointed out, taking a drink of the coffee nonetheless.

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

Roy frowned. "You don't like the Sheriff mode?"

[tricksy-spy.livejournal.com]

Aly raised an eyebrow. "I do love being told what to do of course."

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

"It can be interesting," he suggested, eye twinkling as he watched her.

[tricksy-spy.livejournal.com]

She smirked at him, eyes mischievous. "Drink your coffee."

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

"Yes, ma'am," he grinned and obediently drank from his cup as he leaned against the desk.

Aly winked. "Damn straight." She glanced over his desk. "What are you working on?"
