Capítulo 37: Silly quarrel
"This won't do." Queen said with her hands on her hip as soon as she walked into Quince's office.
Quince merely gazed at her with his signature non expression.
"Do you see that?" Queen asked as she pointed her finger straight in front.
"The table and chairs?" Quince raised one of his brows up as he asked her the question.
"Yes!" Queen nodded, happy he got her message.
"Glad you are able to see them too." Quince said before walking to his seat behind the mahogany table.
"I'm serious Quince!" Queen said as she stomped her foot in frustration. Quince eyes shone brightly at her cute behavior. 'Truly like a little girl.'
"You know I can't change this table yet. We're still on the cruise." He said in a gentle voice hoping to coax her.
Queen's face immediately turned red as she thought of her embarrassing behavior last night. "That's not it!" She yelled.
"Of course not." Quince did not smile but Queen could definitely feel it. It annoyed her to no end.
"You're impossible!" Queen huffed exasperatedly. His attitude was getting out of hand! She still doesn't understand how he got the damn idea that she was like a little girl!
Queen strode forward and grabbed the chair in front of his table. She carried it up, but before she could move it anywhere, another hand pressed on the back of the chair.
"What are you doing?" Quince asked, confused by her behavior.
"Moving the chair!"
"Why?"
"Don't you see?!" Queen said feeling annoyed.
"I will if you tell me Miss Vancroft." Quince said coldly. He was doing his best to be patient with her but she kept testing his limit each time.
"Our suspect is coming. I can't be sitting on the same side as him!" Queen cheeks flared up as she explained her simple logic to him.
Quince immediately understood and he couldn't help smiling at her enthusiasm. She was definitely taking her military outfit seriously.
"So you want to play the role of an investigator. Aren't little girls supposed to like dolls?" Quince said this time with a smile on his face. His dimples were even showing now.
"For god sake! I am not a little girl Master Quince. If you say that one more time, I am going to have to show you." Queen hissed at him. She looked like an angry fearless little creature that was provoked by a larger creature.
"I did not say you are a little girl. I merely asked about little girls' preferences. You were the one that thought of yourself as a little girl." Quince said before carrying the chair for her. He placed the chair close beside his.
Queen's mouth hung open at that point. She couldn't believe he actually used a really low and forced play on words to win against her.
'I can't take it anymore!' Queen saw red and immediately ran over to Quince. Her steps were light and quick unlike her usual clumsy self.
His back was facing her and in that moment, Queen attacked. She jumped on his back and wrapped her arms around his neck and her legs around his waist.
"What are you doing?" Quince asked icily. He didn't loose his cool one bit. He actually sensed her footsteps but merely waited to see what she would do.
"Punish you." Queen whispered softly against his ear. Her lips brushed lightly against it. A slight shiver ran up Quince's spine but he forcefully repressed it.
"Miss Vancroft, won't you be good and climb down?" Quince gritted his teeth as he spoke the words. He knew he pushed her too much and he was trying to placate her by controlling his temper.
Wrong move on his part. The words provoked Queen even more. 'He talks like I'm a child!' She thought angrily, before biting his shoulder, hard.
"Ughsjd" Quince hissed painfully. This was the second time that she bit him. Is she the reincarnation of a dog?!
Quince used both his arms to wrap behind her bottom before skillfully maneuvering her to come in front.
"Wahhh" Queen cried startled at his move. She still had her arms and legs wrapped around him but she was now facing his front instead his back.
"Are you done?" Quince asked as he glared down at her. His arms were wrapped tightly around her waist, preventing her from misbehaving.
"Stop treating me like a child you damn cat!" Queen said with fire in her eyes. She wanted to move about but his arms wrapped around her too tight for her to manage that.
"Queen Rosalia Vancroft, we're in the middle of an investigation." Quince reminded her with an icy look on his face.
"I know!" Queen huffed in reply.
They both stared at each other with anger in their eyes. His icy blue and hers with red fire. Queen knew she was acting like a child but she couldn't take his attitude! Thinking about it made her feel really wronged.
Quince was the first one to raise his white flag after seeing the angry pout on her face. He felt like he was bullying a child.
Quince lightly place her down on the chair beside his before walking to the cabinet. Queen wanted to know about what he was doing but she was too angry to ask.
She didn't have to wonder for long as he walked back to her with an ointment in his hand. He bent down and gingerly touched her injured foot.
"Nooo!" Queen yelled before hurriedly moving her foot away. The damn cat was going to nurse her wound again. What's wrong with him? Weren't they just fighting?!
"Don't be stubborn." Quince said before snatching her foot back towards him. Queen couldn't resist his strength and he gently applied the ointment for her. After he was done he kept the ointment back on the cabinet.
Queen was still angry but she wasn't going to ignore his kindness. "Thank you." She said softly and resolutely turned her head to the other direction.
'Guess she's still mad. But she still said thank you. Cute.' Quince smiled wryly before sighing as he took his seat beside her.
Time went by slowly as they waited for their next suspect to come to the office. This time, Queen couldn't stop her curiosity and she finally opened her mouth to speak.
"Who is the next suspect?"
Quince looked at her. He thought about keeping silent or saying something along the lines of,'you'll know when he comes.' Like how we would have done if it were anyone else. But if he did that with her, this little creature would definitely be mad again.
"Mr.Albert." Quince said simply.
Queen nodded and kept her silent once more. It lasted around 1 minute before she said,"So where is he?"
A knock immediately resounded on the door.
