John had been laughing ever since he’d sent the text to Felicity a couple of days ago. It had, he knew, been one of his best hacks ever and even Fliss should struggle to undo it. Of course it wouldn’t help that each time she tried to correct it and did it wrong a new picture of him would appear.
He’d spent far too much time planning the prank. But he expected revenge. He wasn’t the sort to play a trick on someone and then go grumpy when the tables were turned. It would no doubt be an ongoing thing between them.
He was sat at a terminal playing with some code while waiting for her to arrive, he knew she would turn up eventually.
Felicity stormed into the office without even knocking. It had started out fairly funny, but when the hack kept recycling and regenerating every time she tried to resolve it, she got more and more frustrated. Finally deciding to confront John to get him to fix the damned thing, she’d driven to his offices and pushed the door open without knocking. “John Connor, whatever you’ve done to my...my…everything, I demand you fix it!” she dropped her phone on the desk in front of him and crossed her arms defiantly.
John turned in his chair slowly and smiled at her, “Felicity, how wonderful to see you” he told her, “You know you’re quite cute when you’re pissed at me” he teased her.
“I…wha...” Felicity gaped at him like a fish as she tried to think of a comeback. She pressed her lips together and closed her eyes as she tried to centre herself. “Don’t you do that! Don’t...flatter and distract me when I’m trying to tell you off for being an ass and putting me in a compromising position with a client who was trying his damnedest to try and hit on me!” she chastised him, trying to look pissed still.
John tried to look contrite but didn't put too much effort into it, he did frown when she finished though. "Not a client I sent you I hope" he said, before masking the concern with his next words, "After all I'm the only one allowed to hit on you Fliss" he winked at her.
“I...you...don’t do that!” Felicity tried to tell him off, feeling herself getting flustered again, a blush starting to colour her cheeks. “Stop it! I’m supposed to stay mad at you for this!” she pointed at the phone to try and direct his attention away from her. She knew that if she got too flustered she’d start rambling again and that would probably only play into his hands.
“Don’t do what dear?” John asked her innocently, “How can you stay mad at me for that? Don’t you like it? I was sure you would” Now he grinned outright, “Or did you want to be more involved?” he added with a waggle of his eyebrows.
Felicity turned beet red at that, folding her arms more tightly against herself as if the physical act might stop him seeing her reaction. “In...wha...I…” she sighed in frustration. “You can be a pain in the ass sometimes, you know that?” she told him.
John chuckled, “Mmm so I’ve been told. But it’s a good kind of pain in the ass right?” he teased, knowing that really she was a damn good sport and in truth he did think she was a pretty great girl.
"Most of the time its a good pain in the ass," she relented. "But not when you pull stunts like that and especially not when I'm with a client," she told him.
“I knew you loved me” John told her with a knowing nod before asking, “Was it a client I sent you? And was he sleazing on you?”
"Wha...loved?! I do not love you John Connor, at the moment it's a wonder I even like you, so you can get that thought right out of your crazy little head," she told him, hands on hips as she spoke. "Yes it was, but it's nothing I can't handle, now sort out your hack you evil genius you!"
“Keep telling yourself that Fliss” John told her with an impish grin, still winding her up, “Okay Okay, I’ll remove it if you insist though you’re breaking my heart. But you’re going to tell me what this guy did, at the end of the day you’re on my staff and I’m not tolerating that kind of treatment” he added seriously.
"It's fine, nothing I can't handle," she told him. "I'll let you know if it ever gets too much," she said to reassure him. She was used to the occasional guy being too forward or handsy and generally told them where to go.
John wasn't happy about it but nodded, he'd find out who it was and if they suddenly had outstanding parking fines and charges on their card for porn well that was entirely coincidental. "Make sure you do" Growing up with just his mom and sister made John rather protective of those he cared about.
“Yes dad,” Felicity teased, mimicking a sullen teenager in reply. “So can you take the hack off, please? I need to get my work done and that’s just…far too distracting,” she told him with a straight face, crossing her arms again.
He rolled his eyes at her ‘dad’ comment then nodded. “I’ll remove it, since you insist” John told her, picking up her phone to connect it to his computer. Undoing it on the phone would then reboot her other systems too. “I knew you liked it really” he joked with a smirk.
“Thank you,” she said to him. “I never said I didn’t like it, I said it was unprofessional and ill timed...maybe not in those words, but in essence,” she shrugged a little as she spoke.
“You’re a good sport Fliss” John told her with a smile before he returned his attention to the screen and reset her systems. “Give it ten minutes and you’ll be all back to normal”
"Thank you," Felicity held out her hand to take her phone back from him. She smiled at him sweetly, "Anything for you, boss."
“You’re welcome” he told her, “Oh and next time I’ll make sure you don’t have any appointments before I set it off” he grinned at her as he handed her the phone.
“You’re a bad boy John Connor,” Felicity narrowed her eyes at him as she leant in to take the phone. “I like it!” she grinned as she turned and headed out of his office.
John laughed, “I know you do” he called after her still chuckling, he really did have this manager thing down.
