SUMMARY: John leaves Shaw stranded...
Shaw seethed in impotent fury. Dammit Reese! She just knew he was the jerk who left her in the lurch like this. Finch was too much of a gentleman to be so inconsiderate. Unfortunately, Harold was her only hope now, much as it might discomfort the man. Gritting her teeth, Shaw tapped her ear bud to activate it.
“Hey, Harold”
“Miss Shaw? I thought you were....offline.”
“Yeah, about that. I'm gonna need a little help here.”
“...Really. What kind of assistance do you require?” Harold asked cautiously. There was prolonged silence once Shaw explained her situation. Finally Finch replied “I'll send Bear to you. I think on the whole that would work best.”
“Good idea Harold” Shaw said with relief. She was glad to see Bear make an appearance a short while later. Even more glad to see the supplies he carried.
Reese had been having a good day. That all changed when he entered the subway lair only to be met by twin death glares from Shaw and Harold. Bear at least looked pleased to see him but seemed to be keeping a low profile in the tense atmosphere.
“Really John. I expected better from you. How could you leave a teammate stranded like that?”
“What? What did I do?”
“Next time replace the roll when you use up all the toilet paper” Shaw growled as she stalked off, taking Bear with her.
Which was how John ended up cleaning the bathroom -with a tooth brush. That would teach him never to leave one of the others high and dry.
