Summary: Lindsey
Word Count: 305
Lindsey looked around at Second Act Rehabilitation Center. Eliot had already claimed to be Nate's- or rather Tom Baker's – brother. Hardison played the “I'm WITH him” card. He walked up to the receptionist.
“I'm here to see Tom Baker,” Lindsey said.
“Weren't you just here?” she asked confused.
“No, that was my cousin,” Lindsey explained. “I'm here to see my other cousin Tom.”
“Right. He's with his brother and his brother's partner in the day room,” the receptionist said helpfully.
Lindsey graced her with a dazzling smile. “Thanks,” he said before he turned to follow the signs to the day room.
“What took you so long?” Nate asked as Lindsey took the empty seat in the circle.
“I was just getting directions from the receptionist,” Lindsey said.
“She's mine,” Eliot growled.
“I doubt she'd go out with you,” Hardison said. “She thinks we're together.”
“Wait, the receptionist thinks the two of you,” Parker said as she motioned between Eliot and Hardison, “are . . . “
“Together. Yes. Isn't that right, poopsie?” Hardison said to Eliot, playing along.
“I'll poopsie you,” Eliot snarled as he started to get up to hit Hardison.
“Eliot,” Nate commanded. “Let's get back to work.”
Eliot reluctantly sat back down, glared at Hardison who had put his hand on Eliot's arm. “I'll deal with you later,” Eliot said as he removed Hardison's hand rather forcefully.
“I'm sure you will,” Hardison replied as he waved at a passing orderly.
“Hardison!” Nate commanded.
“Right. The Axis of Scumbags,” Hardison said. “Chilians, Mexicans, and Koreans. Those are just the ones we know about. There may be others.”
They settled down to the briefing with Eliot glaring at Hardison, Hardison playing up the cover just to irratate him, and Lindsey smirking because it was just so darn fun watching his cousin squirm. Some how work actually manged to get done.
