As it was, Brianna didn’t use nick names with anyone … let alone her boss. She had finally been convinced to call Rebecca Todd “Rebecca”, but there was no shortening it from there. Every day the same thing happened. Bri showed up for work, left the cup of Hot Tea on Rebecca’s desk, then she started on her own paperwork. Today their ritual was messed up if only because she was late. Everything was thrown off. Bri sat down in her desk and quickly wrapped herself up in the mountain of paperwork. She’d asked Becca what she missed a few moments prior … but no answer came.

It was the cough that caught her attention. Bri looked up, wondering why Rebecca hadn’t answered her. When she saw that Becca’s face was slowly changing color she paled. Her gray eyes shifted to the cup she’d been sipping at. She hadn’t realized what’s she’d just done. She had a cup of Hot Tea … but she’d ordered a cup of coffee for herself. Oh no! Brianna flew from her seat and hurried over to Becca’s desk.

“I’m so so sorry! I didn’t think! I’m sorry. Do you have something you can take or do I need to go get someone?” She inquired. Her words came out in a single breath. They were all slurred together with how fast she was speaking. It wasn’t often that Brianna Michaelis got this worried, but there was one word to describe her in that moment. Panic.

Ruther sat on the table and feel the intensity of having a new job. He looked at Becky and said, "I might as well start off and help you with those paper works" he said. He then grabbed his wand and flicked it on his table. In an instant a cup of hot coffee emerged. Then another flick was made and an ink bottle and a quill appeared.

He then looked at the new comer and smiled, he straightened up and stretched his hand, "Hello I am Ruther." he said.

Becca shook her head at Brianna and held her hand up to stop her rambling. "Stop" she told her, trying to stop her from panicking. Panic wasn't good for anyone right now. Having never been in this situation before, she used her common sense "I need water, and.." she paused, fanning herself again "Just the water will keep me happy" she whispered, feeling sick and dizzy. She waved her wand at the coffee so it disappeared and them cleared away all the sharp object from the desk quickly. If she passed out, it wouldn't be dangerous anymore.

Brian's legs dragged him automatically to where he had not been there before. Entirely new place for him. But it was something like a magic that had pulled him there. Wizengamot Administration Services. He walked around the place as his hands in his trouser pockets as usual. What are you looking for Brian?! He asked to himself but knew that something was there, something his thing, his possession was there to take back to him. He looked around the place patiently, thinking.

As she started to feel sick, Becca saw Brian walk into the room looking confused as to why he was there, she put her hand over her mouth and coughed again. Waving at him to come over to her, she started to take quick, short breaths "Brian" she spluttered. Her face went pale again and she stared to shiver as if she was cold. Looking up into his eyes, she choked out one word "Coffee" and then she put her head on the table as it started to feel heavy. Closing her eyes, she drew her wand close and started to feel dizzy. Her throat was dry and her head was heavy, this wasn't one of the better days.

Brian saw a hand waving at him by the corner of his eyes. His eyes darted towards the direction and ha..there his possession, his property was sitting..but wait. She was not looking bright now. She looked so pale and ..waht she said? He could understand that single word even from her lip movements. Coffee. Bad. Bad thing. He took two long steps to reach her, ignoring the surroundings completely.

"Hey Becs. Coffee again?" he asked and realized that she was not in a position to talk. He held her closer to his chest, Pulled out the wand from his robes pocket and casted a spell to get back her consciousness. "Baby? can you hear me?" he asked, concerned.

Groaning quietly as Brian spoke to her, Becca moved closer to him and buried her face in his shirt. Still shaking, as if she was cold, she kept her eyes closed and her face covered by her hair. "Brian" she whispered to him and then fell silent again.

Brian wrapped his hands around her as she moved in and burried her face in his shirt. He knew it would take some time for her to recover from the effect. C-o-f-f-e-e effect. He was unaware that she had consumed a quite amount of coffee accdientaly. He leaned down, looking at her now pale, colorless face. "You're going tobe fine Becs," he stroked her hair softly, "Do you remember? You were agreed with me to overcome this..is it?" he kept talking to her, to keep her conscious and get back her normalcy.

"No, Bri. I drank some, I didn't agree to this. I agreed to taking time off to get this sorted" she mumbled to him. It was safe here in his arms, so protected. "Bri, I feel sick" she shivered again.

What?!!! she drank some? He knew it was the worst part ever. But how did she do that in first hand!? Was she out of mind? He rubbed his forehead to the unanswered questions. But this's not the time for more questions. "I know love. We'll go out of this place when you get back some energy. okay?" his thumb stroked her cheek. "You want anything to drink?" he pressed his cheek on her hair as he held her against his chest.

"Mhmm" she breathed in answer to his comment about leaving when she got energy. As his thumb stroked her cheek, she felt drowsy again. Leaning on him in a more comfortable position, she didn't answer his question about wanting a drink. Becca started to drift off to sleep.

All he could hear was her Mmmm. He smiled as she drifted off to sleep and leaned against the wall to make themselves sit in a comfortable position. She was like a child sometimes. He shook his head and rubbed on her back soothingly as he waited for her to wake up.

For the first time he looked around the surroundings. There were some others, standing besides them. He gave them a friendly smile before took her wand from the table and shoved it into his back pocket.

She knew she was safe there, he was holding her. As she laid on him, she inhaled his familiar, yet amazing smell. Staying where she was and not moving except to breathe, Becca started to feel better, slowly. Waking up after about twenty minutes, she stirred.

He was there, thinking about the pile of things ahead of him. Work, meetings, transfers, and wedding plans. Wow he had to do really a good amount of stuffs. When he was sorting out one by one, he felt her stirring in his arms. "Becs?Are you okay?" he whispered softly.

Hearing him whisper to her, she opened her eyes and then groaned a little "My head" she mumbled as she opened her eyes "My head hurts" she blinked a few times as her head leant on his shoulder "And my stomach" she added as one arm covered her stomach. A little bit of colour came back into her cheeks as she looked up at him.

"You look pathetic Becs," Brian said concernly, looking down at her tender figure. "You need more rest." he said, not paying any attention to his previous plans and thoughts. "Just go back to sleep Or you want me to do something...stunning and interesting," he asked, knowing that his own method would work quickly.

She smiled "Thanks, you always know how to compliment me" she joked with him "If I could sleep more, do you think I'd be awake now?" she mumbled to him "You go ahead and do whatever it is, but remember, I work here. I have the same rules as you do in your office" she grinned up at him and wondered how he'd react to her words.

Brian chuckled, "Joking..huh?" he squeezed her hand gently and listening her more. "I know, but try to go back to sleep, it'll help you," he suggested her again, as stroking her hair. "What? rules?" he laughed as threw back his head, "Well..then i've to just sit here and read the rules." he spoke and shook his head unbelievably.

"Mhmm" Becca smiled "No, I'm awake now" then her smile became a grin, he really did know how to make her want to laugh "You don't need to read them, you've got the same rules in your office" she stuck her tongue out at him and then gazed at him as he made the smallest moves so fantastic to watch.

"Are you really?" Brian raised his brow, looking down at her thoroughly to make sure whether she was right. It seemed half..nah..one third true. Her grin speaks the truth. He sighed relievingly, atleast she was getting back to the normalcy quickly than before. "I'v got? Do you remember love?" he asked playfully, before nudging his forehead against her.

"Yes" she nodded to him and then instantly regretted it, she rubbed her head gently and then smiled as he spoke again "Of course I remember" she smiled and then looked into his eyes.

As his left hand gently rubbed on her back soothingly, his free hand wrapped around her still. "Then I'm helpless to help you Becs. Allow me to do atleast secretly," he winked before took a glance around.
Everyone please forgive us if we do anything mischievous. Haha.

She smiled and leant her head against his shoulder "Okay, go on then" she mumbled, knowing what he was going to do. He always had the perfect way to wake her up properly.

Brian looked around again before leaned in and pressed his lips against hers quickly very quickly and pulled away. It may be quick but strong enough to make her sit straight.

He chuckled and looked at her, "Feel better now?" his mischievous tone was back from nowhere. Haha.

Watching his movement from her comfortable position leaning on his shoulder, Becca smiled as he looked around. Then he kissed her, during the many milliseconds that his lips were on hers, she felt herself warm up and suddenly managed to focus. "Mmm, I dunno" she grinned at him "Of course I do" she sighed happily.
