"you knock.", i say.

ricky brings his fist up to the door and does a rhythm of knocks against it. i rock back and forth on my feet while we nervously wait.

soon a short man wearing all black opens the door, "have a seat."

opening the door wider for us, we walk inside and notice a desk in the corner, two couches, a tv...it looks like a house.

ricky and i take a seat on the couch and my eyes are scanning the room. soon our heads look to the door in front of us when we hear footsteps.

a tall, muscular man walks through the door, taking a seat on the opposite couch. he's wearing blue jeans and a simple black t shirt.

"jason and maddie?", he questions and we both slowly nod our heads.

his voice is deep and raspy. my neck is going to hurt after this from staring up. i gulp and my hands interlock, nervously fidgeting.

"do you speak english?"

we both nod our heads and i feel a little weight get lifted off my shoulders. he leans back on the couch, crossing his arms and looking at us.

"so you're here to see if we'll hire you?"

both of us nod our heads and i glance at ricky's face. he looks so calm. how can you be calm right now?!

"what's your background?", the man asks.

ricky nudges my leg and i clear my throat, "we uh- we're world famous criminals. specifically, spying and stealing. we want to be a part of what you're doing."

he tilts his head and my nerves rush throughout my body, "and how do you know we're doing something?"

"we're criminals...we find any illegal activity.", ricky answers.

okay...usually i'm confident and brave during missions but this one...weird vibes.

i'm terrified.

"if you'll excuse me, i'm going to look you up in our systems then.", he informs and we both nod.

he walks out of the room and we're now left alone in the silence. i let out a huge breath, leaning back on the couch and placing my hand over my chest.

"you good?", ricky asks.

i shake my head, "that man...is terrifying."

"just stay calm...i thought you were normally fearless on missions?"

i roll my eyes, "this is different. i've never been on a mission outside my country, let alone with a stranger, let alone having to spy on dangerous people!"

he raises his hands in defense and i suck in a breath.

"i'm sorry.", i sigh, running my hands through my hair.

i pop back up at the sound of the door clicking closed. the man sits back down on the couch and the room stays quiet for a couple moments.

you can probably hear my breathing and my heart pounding but if i try to control it, i'll pass out.

"you two have quite the background.", he says, "quite the skill too. you're hired."

my eyes widen and i look at ricky. i force myself to stay calm and ricky and i both rise from the couch.
