BEEP, BEEP, BEEP!
I groaned and rolled over knocking my alarm clock into the floor.

"God this thing is so annoying, I don't know how you have convinced me to keep it this long"

I looked over to Giovanni who was chuckling at my sudden outburst.

"Hunny you know that if it's that annoying we can just get rid of it" but of course that would never happen. It's his favorite alarm clock he got on vacation in the Bahamas.

I rolled out of bed and started to get ready for the day. I went into my closet and pulled out a pair of skinny jeans and my favorite AC/DC shirt paired with my favorite black lace up boots.
Then I went into the bathroom to brush my teeth and mirror check my self, and it so happened to be while Giovani was taking a shower.

"Hey babe, would you hand me a new bar of soap please"

Giovanni said over the shower water.
I of course will oblige, as I can't say much. I am ALWAYS forgetting something. Like my towel or my hair brush. After thoroughly searching under the sink I hear a laugh. I turn around to ask him what he was laughing at, that's when I realized he was out of the shower. Arms held up ready to attack. Before I could fully register what was happening. He had quickly wrapped me in his soaking wet arms, and pulled me into the shower with him. Soaking me from head to toe.

"SERIOUSLY GIOVANNI, YOU HAVE TO BE SHITTING ME!"

"This is payback for drawing ducks all over my truck last week."
He broke out laughing like a mad man. He always joked and referred to us as pinky and the brain. Except I was considered to be pinky of course. I swear he is a caveman and thinks he's truly smarter than me, yet he asks me how to spell certain words ALL THE TIME.

"I swear ill have my revenge you little shit."

He continued his "evil laugh" as he calls it. I took it as my opportunity to Make my quick escape. I had successfully escaped and My  clean clothes were now soaked from head to toe. I got my self a towel and mentally cursed that man as I got my day started, and that began with dry clothes. I scattered to find my new outfit for they day, I was freezing cold.

***************

I went down for breakfast and made my self some Cereal before I had to head out to work. I always liked to be on time. I'm a private investigator. And I personally love my job. I mean what's not to love? I'm my own boss, I set my own rules.

I remember as a child, I had these heightened senses. I could almost see through people and their intentions. As well as hearing, seeing, smelling, sense of direction, taste and a few more traits. It was considered normal to my family. But I never understood. So when I did ask, My parents would tell me it would soon pass. I was 7 then. By the age of 8, my senses became stronger and I felt invincible. My parents gave me a present that day. One that is super special to me. It was an anklet. Pure gold, and I never took it off. My parents told me that as long as I wore it, I would be safe. I still don't understand. But after that anklet was put on, all my senses went to normal. I believed I had grown out of it. Every 4 years, I get a new charm for it usually on my birthday. So by then, after feeling invincible, I had known I wanted to be a ninja when I grew up. My mother thought it was funny, how ever I did not. So to let me taste my dream, I got to train in karate, kung fu, boxing, MMA and many other styles through out the years. I was a mini bad ass and I knew how to take on any one when fully concentrated. I was strong, and very fast as well. But now that I've settled down, I wanted to continue to do something similar to being a ninja. As I'm grown, my mother still laughed at me. She suggested I become a private investigator. I could spy on people legally, and if I wanted to and I quote "act a fool" then I could. So when I got into the profession I did a lot of cool moves that I never get to use. Including acrobatics. I bought all black suits, binoculars, wigs, different covers depending on what I had to do. The only down side to settling down, was the fact that my physical ability depleted. I wasn't in shape any more. I wasnt fit to run. But I could still whoop some ass if need be. I pulled my self from my day dream and,
quickly finished up and kissed Giovanni good bye for the day and let him know that I would be home in a while as I had not much to do at work. Since Things had been slower. My best guess is that I had busted all the cheating spouses in the county.
