Y/n and Steve left early that morning, avoiding Jim completely. Steve was scared he'd wake up and see the two sneaking out, especially Steve. Sure Jim liked Steve and all, but he was overprotective of his daughter, both of them.

Y/n was sitting in the back, with a translation book. She had a notebook in front of her, and was writing down the sentence they had, over and over on one page. And on another page, she was brainstorming places these Russians could be. Along with what they could be doing, or what they even wanted in the first place.

Her brain and thoughts were all over the place, it was a mess in there. Why would Russians come here, of all places. Y/n frowned and looked over at the other page of all the ideas, she sighed and wrote down another thing.

"Easier to hide their operation." Y/n mumbled in a confused tone.

Robin was up front, listening to the tape and looking at another translation book. Steve and Dustin were at the lower part of the mall, looking for any Russians. Y/n doubt they would find any, but it gave them something to do.

The annoying sound of the singing bell could be heard even from the back room, but she ignored it best she could. Today wasn't as busy, and Robin could handle whoever was out there. But the bell continued ringing, over and over again.

Groaning Y/n stood up and opened the window startling Robin "Robin!"

Robin quickly took the headphones off, letting them hang around her neck. When she looked back to see Erica Sinclair, she sighed annoyed.

"Y/n, this kid is going to drive me insane!" Robin whispered "She wont stop asking for samples, and she's totally abusing company policy."

"Hello? Ahoy!" Erica said still ringing the bell, over and over "I'd like to try thr peanut butter chocolate swirl, please." She said with a fake smile.

"No more samples." Y/n said glaring at the girl from the window, her head spinning from everything.

"Why not?" Erica asked in annoyance.

Y/n sighed "Because, you're abusing company policy and giving everyone a migraine." She said annoyed, "You want another sample, come back in a week. Or pay."

Erica scoffed "Where's the sailor man?" She asked.

"He's busy." Robin responded.

"Busy with what?"

"Spycraft, now scram." Y/n grumbled glaring at them, completely annoyed in every way possible.

The teenagers left, muttering under their breath. And Erica saying a few things about Y/n. The woman sighed, and ran her hands down her face. Sometimes she questioned how she managed to even deal, with any children at all.

Robin noticed how stressed Y/n was and frowned "Hey, can you do me a favor?" She asked.

Y/n sighed and looked over at her friend "What do ya need?" She asked.

"Could you run to Claire's, and buy me a hair tie, my hair is seriously annoying me." Robin lied smiling slightly.

Y/n nodded "Yeah." She mumbled "I'll be back soon." She added before tossing her scoops had down and walking off.

Downstairs Steve was with Dustin, searching for any guy that looked like he was Russian. They were obviously hiding behind some bushes, Steve had the binoculars and was looking at random people. Steve could hardly focus, he missed Y/n and wanted to be with her. He wanted Y/n to join him so they could talk more, but Dustin insisted on going.
