Chapter 1

Romy, a very confused girl decided to  quickly close up the bar and follow him to wherever he was going wanting to know who exactly Eggsy was. He couldn't just show up at a bar and wreck the place without a girl getting curious. So Romy followed him carefully making sure he wouldn't know that she was behind him.

She walked inside Kingsman tailor thinking this was a dead end and he simply was just getting a new fancy suit but something within her mind told her to keep going.

She saw him slip into a tailor room all on his own and she followed him in, the man behind the counter tried to stop her but it was too late. Eggsy had his hand pressed to the mirror and when he saw her in the reflection his reaction was something she will remember for days.

"Oh shit." Soon enough the room started going down like an elevator and she freaked out.

"What the fuck is going on?!" Romy had yelled trying to find something stable to hold onto.

"How?" Eggsy was astonished, how did she follow him without his knowing. He checked himself for a tracker but found nothing.

"How? I have a better question for you. Why?" She looked around as the room had slowed to a stop and she stared at a pod like device that seemed to be used for transportation. 

"Merlin, have you got this?" Eggsy said as he pressed his fingers to his glasses.

"What on earth have you gotten yourself into Eggsy?" Merlin had said to him disapprovingly.

"I know, I know just could you just find me files on her?"

"Why don't you just get her out of there and make her forget everything?" Merlin was not impressed with him.

Romy was unsure as to who Eggsy was talking to so she swiftly turned up her hearing aid until she could clearly listen to the other voice Eggsy was speaking to.

"Can you please just get up her files?" My files? They can't be that accessible can they? And why would he want my files in the first place? Romy had thought to herself.

"If you say so Eggsy, but I don't see what good they would be." The man on the other side had said.

"Why do you want my files?" Romy asked and flinched remembering that her hearing aid was turned up, she turned it back to it's original level.

"Every god damn time." She murmurs to herself and rubs her ear.

"How did you...?" Eggsy paused and zoomed his glasses in on her ear.

"Oh... well never mind then."

"You haven't answered my question."

"Because it's one I can't really answer."

"I guess you really do have all the aspects of being a spy then." Romy smirked, she'd finally calmed herself down realising just how cool all of this is.

"Oh how so?" Eggsy moved closer to Romy with a silly smile on his face.

"Well you kicked ass and ruined my bar." Romy said as she leaned against the wall and Eggsy placed and arm over her head and towered over her.

"Oh? And that automatically makes me a spy does it?"

"Well there's how you act cryptic and mysterious."

"Yes that is quite spy like." Eggsy says lips hovering above hers, Romy's eyes looked over his entire face, is he really going to kiss me? Or is he just being a massive dick right now? Maybe I should play along?

"And your fancy suit... is very fitting for a spy." Romy traced her fingers up and down the collar of the blazer being as seducing as she possibly could, because two could play at this game.

"As well as your handsome looks, that definitely tops it all off." Romy bit her lip and then smirked a little whilst staring into Eggsy's eyes. 

"Well then I guess I definitely am a spy." Eggsy leaned into kiss Romy when Merlin interrupted him.

"I've got the files Eggsy they're coming in now." Eggsy pulled away groaning as Romy laughed.

"You did that on purpose didn't you Merlin?"

"I sure did Eggsy, I sure did, I think you'll find that her files a quite impressive, her full name is Romy Elise she has an IQ of 196 one of the highest IQs recorded of a living person. She's fluent in 26 languages and was supposed to participate in the Olympics for 400 metre freestyle but was in a car accident with her parents she lost them both and gained a hearing deficiency. She missed her opportunity at the Olympics due to a broken leg and suffered minor depression after-"

"And I think that is enough of that." Romy had said interrupting Merlin not wanting Eggsy to know all about her life. She'd turn her hearing aid back down and continued to speak.

"Don't you think that's a bit of invasion of privacy?" Romy had spat almost bitterly.

"Maybe it'd be best if you forgot all this happened." Eggsy lifted up his umbrella pointing it at her.

"Oh I don't think so buster, you can not make me forget about what just happened if anything you should be the one to forget what you've read about my life!" Romy says pushing the umbrella aside.

"You know what Romy? How would you like to join Kingsman?"

"Work at the tailor?" She asked confusingly almost forgetting about what had just happened.

"No silly become a spy."

"Um what makes you think I have what it takes to be a spy?"

"Your high IQ for one."

"Okay so I'm a little intelligent."

"The fact that you were supposed to go into the Olympics."

"I haven't ran professionally for three years."

"You followed me without a tracker and without me noticing you were there."

"I get it I'm a pro at stalking."

"And your beautiful looks are perfect for a spy." 

Romy stood there her arms crossed, "Alright, I'll do it."

"Excellent, now shall we?" Eggsy offered her his arm like a classic gentleman but she just turned her head and walked towards the pod like transportation machine and waited for him to open the door for her and start up the machine.

"So how does this work? Do I just get a suit and I'm all good to go?"

"Actually you'll have to compete against other candidates."

"Oh sweet baby Jesus."
