What if she could tell? He'll have to ride this one out as far as he can. "Where are you both from?" he asked.

But he couldn’t remember getting ready for work, or indeed, how he even got here was a bit of a blur.

He extended his hand in welcoming toward the new man. He looked around the same age as Nathaniel - this was somewhat of a comfort. “Good morning Nicoli. I’m Nathaniel…er.. Nathan. Nathan Greenwood.” He said in his soft Edinburgh lilt, and nodded at the man before collapsing at his desk again and sinking into his comfortable chair. “Nice to meet you both." He said warmly to the two. "Any idea when the boss is gonna get here?” Nathan just wanted to get his work done and get out of here as soon as physically possible. Mentally, he had already left the building.

The quietness of the office was suddenly gone and the excited buzz of getting to know her work colleagues encapsulated Amelia. Getting up from her chair, she shook hands with Nathan and Nicoli in turn, making sure that she gave a firm handshake so they knew she wasn't a puch over. "It's lovely to meet you. I'm Amelia Grey."

Amelia sat on the corner of her desk crossing her legs showing off her superb new red shoes. She had treated herself at the weekend to try and pick up her courage about walking into a new job. Her philosophy is "If you look the part, you'll find easier to act the part."

Surveying her new colleagues, she knew that she was going to part of an interesting bunch. All so different, it was going to be great working with different minds with different view points. The range was going to be extreme, but as long as everyone took pride in their work, she knew she'd get on with them.

She noticed Nathan watching her and smiled at him, intrigued at what he was up to the night before to show up at work in such a way. "It must have been a good night," she thought to herself.

Amelia then turned to Nicoli and noticed a glint in his eyes. He seemed to be hiding something, but Amelia couldn't quite tell what. Answering his question, she said, "I'm from Lancashire, but until recently I was living in Italy. I worked in the Ministry over there, but it was nothing in comparison to here. It seems great."

Quote:

Shane Dalton walked into the Magical Law Enforcement Squad office with her head held high, the back of her purple double silk cloak fell gracefully from her broad shoulders and gathered itself obediantly at her pointy feet. Today, she had on her specially made shoes like always. Her shoes were made of snakeskin, she from the purple python that her great uncle Silas had as a pet back in California.

"Hello everyone," she said in her American accent softly, holding a cup of coffee that she had quickly mad before leaving work. She took a sip and walked over to the "recently new Head of the Magical Law Enforcement Squad". She held our her hand and said, "I believe that you are Mr. Nicoli Vanhattck, our new division Head. My name is Shane Dalton. Welcome, Mr. Vanhattck."

Then she saw another woman enter the office and approached Nicoli. Raising her eyebrows when she realised he was indeed her boss, Amelia began wondering why he hid that little nugget of information. "I'm sure he has his reasons," she thought to herself. Turning to Shane, she said "Hi, I'm Amelia, nice to meet you." Amelia held out a hand to shake, however she did feel slightly tense as she wasn't used to working with other women. Trying to shake it off, she put on her best smile and hoped she could put her pre-conceptions to one side.
