I finally got to the parking lot at the lab 2 minutes ago and when I get in the lab, Angela runs up to me looking excited.

"Damn, Ange. Why are you so excited?" I ask.

"Come with me! I got a pair of boots for you." Angela says,runs off and I follow her.

"Boots? Really? I'm supposed to be working on a case." I say.

"Please? It'll be quick, I promise." She says.

"Uh! Fine, lead me to the magical boots." I say.

Angela smiles as we go in her office. She goes to her desk and hands me a box.

"Open it." She squeals.

"Okay, okay." I say with a laugh.

I open the box and inside are the coolest boots I have ever seen.

"Whoa." I say while staring at them.

"Well? Put them on?" Angela says.

"Don't have to tell me twice." I say and put them on. They fit perfectly! But when I try to walk in them, I find out that their kinda slippery.

"Oh don't worry about that. You'll break them in." Angela says.

"True." I say.

"Their so cute on you though." Angela says.

"Thanks. But now, I have to go meet the new squin-uh, guy." I say.

"Aw, okay." She says with a laugh.

Then I walk to the bone cleaning area where I thought Brennan would be but she wasn't there. So I walk to the examining room and as soon as I step in the room, I slip. This time, I didn't catch myself, but I didn't fall cause someone caught me by the waist. I turn around and see that a cute guy saved me. I've never seen him before, so that mean... He's the new squint.

"Did you know 500 people a day die from falling?" He says.

Wtf?

"Uh, no I didn't know that and thanks for um, catching me." I say.

He just nods his head. He's kinda weird. I like weird.

"So, my name's Kristen." I introduce myself.

"My name is Vincent Nigel-Murray." He says.

Vincent? Cool name.

"So you help Brennan?" I ask, already knowing the answer.

-"Yes and over one thousand people are helped everyday by an individual." He says.

"Uh huh." I say.

He's just full of facts isn't he?

"If you don't mind me asking, what is it that you do?" He asks.

"I'm an FBI agent and I help Brennan also." I answer.

"But surely the lab doesn't need 2 FBI agents?" He asks.

Ru-de.

"And surely, you don't wanna talk to someone that the lab doesn't need." I say.

"Oh no, I didn't mean to be rude I-I just um..." He trails off.

I smile and so does he.

"Well I gotta go find Brennan, but it was nice to meet you. And I'll see you later." I say and walk away, but I could've sworn I heard him say "I hope so"...
