"I mean. I DID save your life. Which means that, without me all those paying customers would be majorly let down... so I'm sure they would understand you taking a few minutes to show your appreciation for such a kind act?"
He would say smuggly.

"No."
She said it simply, and turned back around to go back up the stairs. She was not going to let him hold this over her head. As was, she had given up time she was planning to use for sleeping. Her work was important to her, and her clients were important to her. She had already done her part, as far as she was concerned.
Gidget had no interest in letting him hold this over her head. She knew that, if she did, he would just keep using it against her.

"Ah, well thats too bad."
He would say coyly. As she continued on her way.
"See you soon..."

She ignored him as she went back to her apartment.

Drake went into his room to drop his stuff off before stepping out again... right up to Gidget's room!

Gidget was still in the clothes she had worn to the market, but had folded herself back in her chair. She noticed Drake come in but didn't seem to care much. She had three monitors set up on her desk: one was filled with grainy, black and white images, one was an obvious forum of some kind, and the middle screen, where most of her focus was, had nothing but lines and lines and lines of some kind of code. She was busy typing away, her fingers moving faster than seemed possible.
She didn't spare him a glance as she continued to work, the only sound the steady clicking of her keyboard.

Drake would whistle loudly and sharply.
"Hell of a set up you've got here! Color me impressed!"
He would exclaim loudly.

Gidget continued to ignore him. Hopefully, he would get bored and just leave. She seemed hyper focused, almost scarily so, as she worked.

Drake would stand right behind her and lean over her should, his face right beside hers, so close it would make the average person uncomfortable.
"Mmmhmm... I see..."
Drake mumbled in her ear as though he understood what was going on.

Gidget's shoulders tensed, but she had no real belief that he had any idea what she was doing. She rolled her shoulders and gave a shake of her head.
"Back up. Leave me alone. Let me work." She said everything monotonously, her focus obviously elsewhere, as she continued to work.

He would place an arm around Gidget.
"But I'm bored! Figured I'd come up here and hang out, see what all the fuss was about. Pretty important looking stuff here."

She tried to shrug off his shoulder, giving a shake of her head. "Don't touch me."
Gidget then turned back to her work. "It is important. And I'm on a time crunch, here."

"What is this anyway?"
He asked actually curious.

"A coded security program," she murmured absent-mindedly, and continued to type. What few words were present in the code were obviously written in some kind of weird short-hand, and impossible to understand or figure out.
