They say darkness comes unannounced in one's life and plans to always leave unannounced.

It rained heavily outside in the New York City.Raindrops clattered loudly on the glass ceiling in the room

She sat on the edge of her bed,head hung down,hair let loose,holding her her head in her hands.She quietly listened to the loud rain clattering against the glass

Her mind running endless thoughts through her.Suddenly,she heard her phone ring.Her head snapped up and she turned it sideways to see who it's was calling

Fitzroy

It read.

She picked up the phone and held it to her ears.

"Charlotte"

"Is Claire okay?"Was the first thing she asked,her voice sounding tired and dead of any emotion.

"She's alright.We got something for you and we need you to take a flight and come here to the headquarters"

"What do you have?"she asked

And she didn't expect to hear silence on the other line.Fitz never hesitated to lay a new job on her

"We need you to find six"

All went dead silent.

Her heart stopped in the middle of nowhere and she quietly held the phone to her ears in hope of hearing it wasn't him

"Agent six was on a mission to execute an informant back in Bangkok.And there's no contact of him now.He sent a very important piece of information and we want you to get him here because you know him.....and you're the only one I can trust with him"

She didn't utter a word.She heard him and every word he said.Six was back.The man she utterly fell for

Was back

And what she hated the most was that she had to see him again.After all these years of trying to move past him and to focus on her job

She was brought back to him

"Agent Seven?"

"I'll be there"she said

"See you tomorrow Charlotte"

And the call was cut.She put the phone down,leaning her head back in her arms.That old feeling of butterflies that she hadn't felt in years was settling back in

"Fuck"she whispered

The loud noise of the helicopter blades turning deafened all noise.Charlotte walked up the stairs to the helipad on the roof of the headquarters

Fitzroy was standing there waiting for her.She walked up to him shaking hands with him

"I hope you find him there"he replied

"I hope so too"she said lying to herself and nodded at him.She walked towards the chopper and they opened the door for her.

Sitting inside she looked back at Fitz

He nodded at her saying it'll be alright here.And she nodded back closing the door as the chopper went up in the sky and disappeared amongst the clouds

She took in a deep breath closing her eyes and leaned back.

"Everything alright agent seven?"the security guard sitting in front asked

"I'm going to rescue someone I haven't fucking talked too for years Charlie.No everything is not alright"she opened her eyes and sighed

"Well six has that effect on everyone"he chuckled and Charlotte smiled looking out the window
