Submission #293
The first time Garcia ‘hit on’ Alex over the phone, Alex stared at it in shock, even after Garcia hung up. Rossi had to explain, while laughing, that she hit on everyone.
"What do you need?" Garcia asked pleasantly over the phone.
"We need you to run some names for us." Alex said, listing off the names. "And cross reference them with any crimes in the area."
"Can do, beautiful!" Garcia proclaimed.
Alex paused and stared at her phone for a moment then turned to Rossi who looked confused. "Uh...She...?"
"What'd she say?" Rossi asked.
"Uh, she'll run them..."Alex said slowly, "She just called me 'beautiful'." Alex pointed at her phone, clearly shocked.
"Is that all?" Rossi chuckled.
"I think I just got hit on by our Tech person." Alex said, following Rossi back towards their set up work station.
"You did, but she hits on all of us." Rossi tried not to laugh hard enough to alert anyone, "All the time. It just means she likes you; Haven't you seen her with Morgan?"
"I thought they were a couple of some sort."
"Nope." Rossi grinned, "Hey, JJ, your name has been taken."
"Huh?" JJ looked up in confusion.
Rossi jerked his thumb towards Alex as he sat down on one of the chairs, "Garcia called her 'beautiful'."
"Huh." JJ paused, "Thought there was something different when she called me 'gorgeous' instead."
"This happens a lot?" Alex asked, feeling better.
"We've got sent to sensitivity training a few times because of it." Rossi acknowledged.
"Hey," JJ protested, "That last time was Emily's fault too."
"Yes, because Prentiss' flirting was worse than Garcia suggesting they meet in the supply closet."
"...Point."
