Heatwave: My muse has been sending yours flirty texts all day. When your muse meets up with them after work, the first thing yours does is kiss them breathless.

Erin figured she’d pulled off a silly prank. Maggie had been in the other room when she switched her number around for her boyfriend’s. They’d been sending flirty texts back and forth all day but she was certain that Maggie had caught on about halfway through and she’d expected her boyfriend to blow her cover by texting her through Erin’s contact name - but still the flirty texts continued. Erin had figured that it was just Maggie being silly back. Eventually Erin had messaged to say she was on her way over with a few winky faces just to continue on the joke.

Maggie’s door opened and before Erin even had a change to get a word out, Maggie was pulling her close. It was a brief, but rather breathtaking kiss before the reality of the situation seemed to set in and Maggie pulled away. “Maggie!” Erin burst into laughter. “Hi to you too. Is that how you greet everyone? Or were you expecting…” A wide grin appeared on her face. “Oh, you didn’t know. You didn’t know, did you?”

Erin scoffed and rolled her eyes at Maggie’s accusation. “I started it? I think you need a memory refresher.” She shook her head a little with a smirk lingering on her lips. “Not to mention, something tells me that you have never, nor will ever be corralled into anything. Don’t pretend like I have that kind of power over you Maggie. Maybe I opened the door, but you definitely didn’t miss a beat.”

“His name is my name. You might want to change that back or you’re going to get really confused. Now you’ll never know. Is it me? Or is it him? Hope you’ve got our numbers memorised.” Erin continued to tease. It was too much fun and Maggie’s reactions were just making it even better. “It is rather interesting that you at no point seemed to catch on that it wasn’t your boyfriend that you were talking to. The real question is, am I that good? Or are you that oblivious?” She couldn’t help the ridiculously amused smile that lit up her features. “Hmm, I don’t know. What’s on offer?”

“Of course you started it! You started the textin’, you changed the number,” Maggie pointed out, “I’m not the one in need of the refresher! What on earth compelled you to do this anyway?” Somehow, she felt as if she already knew that answer. It seemed to be pretty amusing from Erin’s direction and eventually Maggie would probably find the humor too though right now her embarrassment outweighed anything else. “I didn’t miss a beat because I thought my boyfriend was trying to get me frisky,” she said pointedly.

She grumbled a little as she pulled her phone back out to change the names, thankfully the numbers were different enough that she knew which was which. “Had he texted me first, I would have known,” Maggie declared, pretty sure of that fact. She smirked and looked at the grinning face of her best friend, “then maybe my not figurin’ you out had everything to do with you being a little too into flirtin’ with me? It didn’t feel like you tried to make it seem outrageous, now did it?” She rolled her eyes and sighed dramatically, “I don’t know, what kind of thing could I offer? Next time my daddy makes that cornbread of his, I could get you some?”

Erin was enjoying Maggie’s embarrassment far too much and Maggie’s continued reactions only fuelled it more. She was going to pay out on her friend for a long time to come for this little incident. She grinned the whole time that Maggie seemed to put all the pieces together in hindsight. It was all the things that made Erin think that she’d been onto her little joke, clearly not. “I guess I can settle for what I did get. It was plenty.” She couldn’t help continuing to taunt her.

“I figured he would’ve messaged you and totally blown my little joke.” Erin laughed and shook her head. “I can’t believe I got you all day. That’s great.” She tapped her finger on her chin as she pretended to contemplate the idea. “Oh? You don’t intend to tell him. Hmm. And what do you plan to offer me for my silence?”

Maggie mentally went back through the conversation she’d had that day. It took a lot of strength to not just look at her phone but she refused to give Erin the satisfaction or even more ammo to tease her with. “What you got? You do realize you started a lot of that? I would not have gone quite to those places had you not corralled me to them,” she tried to argue, hoping that it would be enough to knock Erin off her game a little.

She pouted again, “no, no he did not. Radio silence from him all day. Did you change his name in my phone too? Or just yours?” Maggie glared at Erin before moving to the couch and solidly planting herself on it, knees brought up so her head could rest against them. Once more burying her embarrassment in her limbs, she peeked out at Erin, “I don’t think I want to deal with that conversation. Either I won’t hear the end of it or he’ll start focusin’ too hard on the fact I didn’t realize it wasn’t him.” She shrugged her shoulders, finally lifting her head, “I- what do you want?”

“Oh, you really didn’t know.” Erin watched as the wheels turned in Maggie’s mind and she finally made the connection. There was no hiding the amused smile that was pulling across her lips. She’d really gotten Maggie good, but then again she’d kind of gotten it in return there at the door. There could’ve been worse reactions to her joke. She finally laughed as her friend seemed to cycle between anger and embarrassment.

“You should be embarrassed. Jeez. Can’t even tell your own boyfriend from your best friend.” Erin continued to taunt. “There were a few things that you said there that made me think you knew it was me. Dang, girl. You’ve got some interesting lines there. I might have to take a flirting lesson or two there.” She grinned at Maggie, there was no way she was going to let this go for a very long time. “I might actually know more about you after this afternoon than your boyfriend. I wonder how he’ll feel about that.”

Maggie buried her face in her hands, letting out repeated and muffled “I hate you” and “shut up” as she tried to completely register what she’d been doing all day. All the things she had written. All the things she had written to Erin. She probably knew a lot about the intimate details of her relationship already, but this was at a completely different level. This was her A game, though still probably not the best in the world. And she’d used it on her best friend. Lifting her head, she pointed at Erin, “that’s all you’re gettin’ from me.”

With an embarrassed huff, she leaned against the nearest surface and shook her head in disbelief, “I can’t believe I didn’t get it. I mean, you weren’t around all day and even if you’re busy you still pop in to complain at least. No patient stories, nothin’.” Maggie scrunched up her face before shaking her head more violently, “no, no no. You can’t tell him a damn thing. It’s bad enough that you’re mockin’ me for it. Do I really need it from the both of you?”

She had been moving so fast that before her brain had caught up to see that the person on the receiving end of the tackle had not been her boyfriend, it was too late. Her lips had already connected and the kiss was definitely more than a peck. Alarmed, Maggie stepped back immediately and started to apologize for the mistake until she realized Erin was – laughing. Frowning, she moved aside to let Erin into the apartment, “of course I don’t greet everyone like that. I just thought you wer—“

Maggie closed the door a tad bit harder than she’d intended to, “I knew? I knew.” The gears locked into place inside her mind. She really should’ve caught on, he never has that much free time to talk during the day and Erin had been noticeably silent on gchat. “Son of a-“ she grabbed her phone from her pocket and checked the number before brandishing the device at the Australian, “you! You! Oh, I’m so angry with you right now.” Her smile breaking through definitely undercut the supposed rage, “god dammit, Erin. Oh, I’m so embarrassed.”

"What? A girl can't say she's going to get a smoothie and come back 14 hours later. There's nothing suspicious about that." (brooklynxfury)

“Maybe not, but returnin’ like that is suspicious. Let me guess, the smoothie had amazin’ arms.”

Trouble Maker | Rick & Maggie

theres-us-and-thedead

Her easy compliance and setting down the bat put Rick more at ease. Things could always change in an instant but at least for now the situation felt as if it was deescalating. Rick didn’t even have to look over at Shane to know the other man was attempting to stifle a laugh at the woman’s words. If it wasn’t such a serious situation, Rick might’ve actually cracked a smile as well. That quickly escalated the situation again. This time the angry victim calling out. Both Rick and Shane put a hand up to both silence and halt the both of them from going anywhere further than they stood. The last thing they wanted was for it to slip into chaos again.

The picture started to become a little more clear after their exchange. Broken hearts resulted in broken windows far more often than the general public might have suspected. Rick didn’t particularly care why other than from a personal interest point of view. It was clear that she had been the perpetrator and it hardly seemed as if she was attempting to deny that fact. Open and shut case as far as he was concerned. It was her question that caused Rick to have to stifle his own smile. “Yes, it would in fact hurt your case a bit. My partner is goin’ to go talk to the owner of this vehicle. I’m just goin’ to…” He cautiously approached and picked up the bat, taking a few steps back to set it on the hood of the cruiser. “leave this over here so you don’t get any bad ideas. Do you have any ID on you, ma’am?”

#theresusandthedead #Trouble Maker

Maggie sighed in disappointment even though in the back of her mind she knew there was no way the officer would let her touch that bat again on his watch. Probably bad for business at the very least. "I don't regret anything I've done tonight," she said as she looked over at a very angrily gesturing Mark. There was no doubt in her mind that he was spinning false facts about her and calling her many unsavory things. Maggie reached into her back pocket and retrieved her I.D and held it out for the Sheriff, she'd only grabbed what was most necessary for her crusade - her bat, her keys and her I.D. "What kind of world do we live in that a douche bag like him can stomp all over a young girl's heart and my taking a few innocent swings at his car isn't justified?"

"I did him a favor anyhow," she shrugged, jerking her head in the direction of the broken windows, "it definitely wouldn't surprise me if this entire street needed to be quarantined due to hazardous materials. His gym bag alone could cause an environmental incident." Maggie knew she should probably stop talking but at this rate, she figured it couldn't hurt to get a few chuckles out of the Sheriff. She was an adult but it still didn't mean she wanted her daddy to find out. Sighing again, she crossed her arms across her belly, "alright, give it to me straight - how much trouble am I in this time? Probably a bit more than trespassin'."

“These girls have the most beautiful dresses. And so do I! How ‘bout that?”

"Don’t you just love this party? Everything’s so fancy and they have some kind of hot cheese over there!"

"Call me if anyone interesting shows up."

“You’ll have to rely on your winning personality to get women. God help you.”

“I’m a little appalled at her taste.”

"Don’t make faces."

“The little man loved fire.”

"Don’t tell ‘em what I did."

"Doesn’t the Bible have some pretty specific things to say about killing?"

“Don’t care much for fancy parties. Too rough.”

“I will not have it in my house. But, since your mother’s already ordered you one, I guess I should give up the fantasy that this is my house!”

“Next time we smuggle stock, let’s make it something smaller.”

“Can I start getting sexed already?”

“Look, they got boy whores! Isn’t that thoughtful?”

“Were I unwed, I would take you in a manly fashion.”

"Tell me I’m pretty."

“Well… my sister’s a ship. We had a complicated childhood.”

“Nothing worse than a monster who thinks he’s right with God.”

“Well, I’m not sure now is the best time to bring a tiny little helpless person into our lives.”

“I ain’t so afraid of losing something that I ain’t gonna try to have it.”

“You and I would make one beautiful baby. And I want to meet that child one day. Period.”

“How many babies have you actually delivered?”

“I’m just waiting to see if I pass out. Long story.”

“Gonna have to explain that to me someday.”

"I don’t care what you believe. Just believe it."

“We’re lost. Lost in the woods.”

"Does that seem right to you?"

"Keep the money."

“Get this man to the infirmary at once.”

“Seems like a lovely little community of kidnappers.”

"This isn’t our home."

“This place gives me an uncomfortableness.”

“You folks are all insane.”

"Would you be killed in your sleep like an ailing pet?"

"You gave up everything you had…"

"I’ll get better. I’ll get better."

“It’s been a big day, what with the abduction, and all.”

“WHOO-HOO! I’M RIGHT HERE! I’M RIGHT HERE! YOU WANT SOME O’ ME?! YEAH YOU DO! COME ON! COME ON! AAAAAH!”

“Someone’s carryin’ a bullet for you right now, doesn’t even know it. The trick is, die of old age before it finds you.”

“When you can’t run anymore, you crawl, and when you can’t do that, well… you find somebody to carry you.”

“They’d have to be insane to follow us through here.”

“Sorry! Didn’t mean to startle.”

"Have you completely lost your mind?"

“Well, you were busy trying to get yourself lit on fire. It happens.”

“Oh, sweetie, don’t feel bad. He makes everybody cry. He’s like a monster.”

“Someone ever tries to kill you, you try to kill ‘em right back!”

"You are no one’s property!"

“Remember that sex we were planning to have, ever again?”

“Well, my days of not taking you seriously are certainly comin’ to a middle.”

"Someone starts poking around, shoot ‘em. Y’know. Politely."

“I realize certain words were exchanged. Also, certain… bullets.”

"What we need is a distraction."

“Oh, I’m gonna go to the special hell.”

“…I think we’ve lied enough.”

“You’re amazing. Who are you?”

“Some people juggle geese!”

“Promise me you’re gonna kill me soon.”

"What’s your real name?"

"I knew you let her kiss you."

“Enemies? You? No, how can it be?”

“No one comes through here that doesn’t have to.”

“My God. You’re like a trained ape… without the training!”

“This must be what going mad feels like.”

"I swear… when it’s appropriate."

“What are we up to, sweetheart?”

"I’m fixing your Bible."

“It’s broken. It doesn’t make sense.”

"Noah’s ark is a problem."

“You guys had a riot… on account of me? My very own riot?”

“You know, with the exception of one deadly and unpredictable midget, this girl is the smallest cargo I’ve ever had to transport, yet by far the most troublesome.”

“You are not the man I met a year ago!”

"That’s why I never kiss ‘em on the mouth…"

“But she was naked! And all… articulate!”

"I got a dumbass stick that sounds like it’s raining, how come you got a wife?"

"Oh, you stupid son of a…"

“I know your name, jackass!”

"He bothers me. I don’t know what it is.”

"If I wanted schooling, I’d have gone to school!”

"Hey, free soup!"

“I am a large, semi-muscular man!”

“I don’t belong… dangerous, like you.”

“He just has this idiotic sense of nobility, you know?”

"He can never just let things go."

"You are very much lacking in imagination!"

"I threw up on your bed."

"You have no idea! And you never will."

"We’re dead in the water."

"Don’t be afraid."

“Sometimes a thing gets broke, can’t be fixed.”

"You don’t have to die alone."

“He takes so much looking after.”

“You know I would never have tried to save [other character]’s life if I had known there was a dinner party at risk!”

"Let’s go back to the part where [other character] gets knocked out by a ninety-pound girl, ‘cause I don’t think that’s ever gonna get old."

"Everybody dies alone."

“You know, you ain’t quite right.”

“Not as deceiving as a low-down… dirty… deceiver.”

"At last, we can retire and give up this life of crime."

"I’m a leaf on the wind. Watch how I soar."

"We’re gonna explode!? I don’t wanna explode!"

"She is starting to damage my calm!"

"Hell, I’ll kill a man in a fair fight… or if I think he’s gonna start a fair fight. Or if he bothers me. Or if there’s a woman. Or if I’m gettin’ paid. Mostly only when I’m gettin’ paid."

"You guys always bring me the very best violence."

“You shut the hell up right now, or so help me, I will shut you up.”

“The next time you decide to stab me in the back, have the guts to do it to my face.”

"Can I come in?"

"It’s time to wake up."

“Ah, the pitter-patter of tiny feet in huge combat boots…”

“One of you is gonna fall and die, and I’m not cleaning it up!”

“We just have to find the right treatment for you.”

“How do you feel now?”

“I think he’s gonna bring her flowers.”

"I’ll be in my bunk."

"You are so lovely."

“They look so glamorous together.”

"I swallowed a bug."

"What was that?"

"People don’t like to be meddled with. We tell them what to do, what to think. Don’t run, don’t walk. We’re in their homes and in their heads and we haven’t the right. We’re meddlesome."

"I aim to misbehave."

“I’m not giving up. But I need your help. ‘Cause I can’t do it by myself.”

Trouble Maker | Rick & Maggie

theres-us-and-thedead

Rick and Shane had gotten dispatched to the call. A frantic young man was on the phone to dispatchers screaming about how some crazy woman was out the front of his house absolutely obliterating his truck with a baseball bat. Shane had a few words to say about the matter on the way and even Rick had managed a laugh about the situation. Truthfully, they’d had no idea what to expect when they pulled up. Sometimes it could be angry ex-girlfriends, people with mental issues, or some other rage inducing situation. Whatever it might be, the dispatcher was right about one thing as they pulled up, the truck was obliterated.

Rick threw the squad into park a few feet away from the woman. The pair of officers quickly exited the car and approached cautiously. Rick could see Shane’s hand on his Taser out of the corner of his eye. They were ready for just about anything except how she greeted them. So calm. “Evenin’ ma’am.” Rick greeted her. “I’m goin’ to need you to put down that baseball bat and then we can figure out what’s goin’ on here. We got a call that you were destroyin’ someone’s property.”
