| Michael and Nikita walked into Madeline's office both a little on edge as to what would occur at this meeting. "Please sit" Madeline offered. Both operatives remained standing nonetheless. It was their usual stance and signature. Madeline smiled her Mona Lisa smile. "We...I" she corrected, "am not going to cancel Flavia" "What will you do with her?" Michael inquired. "She will be put on an accelerated scale which is quite abnormal for recruits and she will be on strict probation for several months. She is to interact only with you as her trainers, she is to be escorted to and from her quarters for the time being and she will be given no leway whasoever" Nikita nodded, "What made you decide not to cancel her?" she asked curiously. "The same reason I didn't cancel you" she replied. "I will send you both a copy of the profile, that will be all" Madeline dismissed them. Michael escorted Nikita out of the office and back to their own. "It doesn't make sense Michael. Why would she not cancel Flavia?" she asked once they were back in the privacy of their own office. "Perhaps she sees talent as I saw in you" he murmured. Nikita smiled, "She does have a certain spark about her but there's got to be more to it than that." she insisted. "Why worry about things beyond our control?" he asked bringing her hand up to his lips in a royal but loving gesture. Nikita smiled, "Michael" she said blushing. "What?" Michael asked smiling enjoying the view of her colorful cheeks. "Bastard" she laughed as he captured her lips in a soft but pleasurable kiss. "Yes, I was" he laughed. Nikita smacked him playfully. "Have dinner with me tonight?" he inquired. "Ok" she agreed. "What time?" "9pm I'll pick you up. Fancy" he told her. She gave him one of her dashing smiles, "I'll see you then" she replied walking out of the room." |
