SEASON THREE: THE BUREAU

"Babe" Lolita whispers as she gently shakes her girlfriend's arm in an attempt to wake her up. "Rosa" She tried again, shaking her slightly harder. "Rosa!" 

"What?" Rosa groaned tiredly as she opened her eyes slightly to see Lola sat up with all the lights in their room turned on. "Why are the lights on? It's... 3 in the morning"

"My little pink light stopped working and it was too dark, I'm cold and you had your back to me" She explained sheepishly as she continued to shiver. A small smile made its way onto Rosa's face as she turned off one of the two lamps and opened her arms for Lolita to lay in. She wrapped the duvet around them tightly before kissing her hair for comfort. 

"Light on?"

"Yes please," Lolita mumbled. "Can you fix it tomorrow?" She asked after a few seconds of comfortable silence. 

"I'll fix it after work"

"And if you can't fix it, can we stay at yours because I know the light works and then buy the same one to replace the broken one"

"Yeah," Rosa said with a small smile as she placed a hand on Lola's cheek, moving a piece of her hair away. It was clear on the smaller woman's face that the big light was bothering her. "Don't let it bother you, okay? If I can't fix it, we'll find the same one to replace it. It's fine, Bonita" She reassures. 

"Is it weird that I'm 32 in July, still scared of the dark and can't sleep without a light unless I'm really drunk?"

"No. Just go to sleep and try and forget about it," Rosa says as she quickly kissed her girlfriend and pulled her closer.

"I called you here to discuss where we are with operation 225641441636324." Captain Holt tells the squad as he stands in front of them in the random storage room they'd been in all week. "What?" The two Latinas say in unison, confusion crossing both their faces. "I assigned a numerical value to each letter in the word 'pimento,' which I then squared." He clarified. 

"Oh, Captain. How dare you try and sneak math into this"

"Peralta, update us on Santiago's undercover prison operation" Terry chimed in.

"Yeah, she has made contact with Jimmy Figgis' sister, but it's slow-going. I hope she comes back soon" Peralta sighs.

"You miss her?" Terry smiled. 

"No, I just lost the key to her apartment, and I'm taking care of her fish. They're all dead already, aren't they?"

"Yeah," Rosa said blankly. 

"Damn it"

"Our priority is still finding Figgis' agent in the FBI." Captain Holt cut in, getting the conversation back on track. "I think it's time I call in a favour from an old colleague at the bureau, Bob Anderson. I would've contacted him sooner, but this is a rouge op, and he's a real stickler for the rules. He once picked up a penny off the street which he then reported on his taxes"
