Mel tapped her fingernails on her desk thoughtfully. She was studying Rebecca, who was sitting with her head in a stack of files.

Not studying them. Literally hiding her head in a stack of files.

And she was blushing furiously.

Mel turned her head to look at Danny, who was trying really hard not to snicker, but his glee was clear. She raised an eyebrow at him.

"Walked in on me in the bathroom," he jerked his thumb towards Rebecca. "She got an eyeful, as I was in the middle of changing clothes."

Rebecca made an odd squeak, and tried to disappear under her piles of paper.

Danny grinned. "Would you rather have walked in on Web?"

She muttered something about Web having more decorum, and both Mel and Danny snorted.

"Web has no decorum," Mel scoffed. "Web doesn't even have fashion sense."

"You know," Danny remarked to Mel. "I wonder if she would've stopped to admire the view if I had been a stranger?"

Rebecca fled.

Danny watched her go, and turned back to Mel with a smirk.

"What? You wish she would ogle a stranger?" Mel lifted an eyebrow. "Or are you wishing you were the stranger?"

"Don't have to be," Danny said smugly. "She might or might not have admired the view on a stranger...but she sure as hell admired the view on me!"
