Professionalism

"You dropped that on purpose, didn't you?" she accused, throwing him a death glare that would give a gorgon a run for its money.

"Perhaps," he smirked. "However, I'm not the one with the obsessive compulsive tendency toward neatness. I'm also not the one in a skirt short enough to qualify as a tool for the world's oldest profession."

Did he just call her a hooker?

"That book looks awfully out of place on the carpet, Relena. It belongs on a shelf."

She scowled. "You know I can't bend over, Heero."

There was that smirk again. "Yes, you can. You'll be putting on quite the show though."

She had to take a deep breath to keep a growl from escaping her lips. "Bet I can get you to pick it up for me."

"Go on."

Walking up to him, she whispered in his ear, things he would let him do with her if only he'd do her this one favor, things she'd normally never even consider doing.

The smug smile on his lips said it all as he retrieved the book and returned it to the shelf.

"You're not allowed to take it back, Relena."

"Of course. I'm a woman of my word, Heero. This weekend. Me on my hands and knees. Us getting down and dirty. Wouldn't miss it for the world."

"Good," he said as his smirk evolved into a maniacal grin. "It's been forever since I've checked on the recording equipment in your office air vents. You're the only person who fits that I can bully into coming with me. I really have to hand it to you for knowing what I want to do."

She laughed. "Is that all?"

"Well, I'd appreciate it if you wore that skirt again. It's a dull job."

It was her turn to smirk. "Not with me it isn't."
