"I don't need protection!" Vincent shouted across the room at his manger and best friend JT who was insisting that he was given some sort of formal body guard. "What I need is for the police to find out who is making threats on my life." He groaned running a hand over his hair. When he had gotten into the acting business he had known that there would be draw backs to fame as well as positives but he had never expected such violent threats on his life to be made.
In fact Vincent Keller had never imagined he would be come as big as he was. He couldn't walk down the street without a group of girls following him and he knew his picture was plastered over most of their walls. His face had been well known ever since his first big romantic movie, it was a Nicholas Sparks novel so he should have known it would get a lot of attention with the like of the Notebook and Dear John around. After that the movie offers had just kept coming and he was now onto filming his fourth major motion picture. He had been on set when he had received the first note threatening his life and they had been coming at regular intervals ever since.
"Look Vincent I want to protect your 'image' just as much as you do but I actually care about to more than some stupid movie roles and the money." JT sighed earning a glare from Vincent's second manager who acted just like a normal agent would.
"You would say that." Gabe sighed as he plopped down on the sofa. "Vincent can't have a whole security team around him at all times. And what about when he is on set it will be disruptive."
"Don't you get it, there won't be a Vincent to be on set if we don't get him some form of security, there have been threats on his life or is your head to far up your own back side to see that."
Vincent growled and moved to stand in the middle of the room between the two men. "Excuse me but I am still here you know?" He protested. "If JT thinks I should get someone maybe we can have a couple of guys but I don't want them with me at all times I hate feeling like I'm being baby sat." He grumbled, not for the first time wishing he was just a normal guy.
"You know maybe this will be good for publicity." Gabe muttered to himself much to the disgust of JT.
"Anyway, if you had let me finish speaking Vincent you would know I found a way for your security to be invisible to the world. No one will even know you have a body guard with you." JT grinned smugly proud at himself for coming up with such a genius plan that should please both the actor and his agent.
"JT, how are you going to make some big burly guys invisible, I have cameras on me at all times you know?" Vincent questioned his friend, JT was kind of a genius but sometime Vincent worried about his mind.
"Ah Vincent, no need to be so stereo typical." JT continued to grin. "I have a plan."
Catherine Chandler looked at her father like he was crazy. She was an FBI operative there was no way she was going to be put on baby-sitting duties for a pompous actor who had obviously pissed someone off. "No I'm not doing it. Send Tess." Catherine glared across the room at her father her arms across her chest. She and Bob had only begun to get close recently after she had discovered he was her biological father after he had helped her move from a detective to work in the FBI.
"Look Catherine Tess is a lovely girl but we need a woman who would be convincing as Vincent Keller's girlfriend."
"And why can't I do that?" Tess asked raising her brow at her best friend's dad although she herself knew that Catherine was the better person for the task. Small and dainty with beautiful feminine features Catherine didn't look like she would harm a fly and would fit right into the arm of Vincent Keller.
"Catherine is the best candidate and she has more undercover experience that you dear." Bob smiled at her.
"I'm not doing it, he thinks he is god's gift to women and I don't want to public to see me as another notch on his bed post. Besides if I do this I won't be able to go undercover again."
Agent Reynolds sucked his breath in and nodded, this was the main drawback of the operation but JT Forbes had made a convincing pitch and the department would be receiving a large amount of money to protect the star. "Cat it won't be forever, a couple of months at the most just until the person issuing death threats towards Mr Keller is caught."
"I won't do it and I mean it. I won't put my career on hold for some stuck up celebrity who thinks he can do whatever he wants whenever he wants and will make protecting him almost impossible to anyone who gets the job."
"Exactly, take this opportunity as a compliment Catherine, it will be a really hard job which is why we need you to do it and no-one else." Bob tried to reason with his daughter who was still giving him a look as if she wished her eyes were lasers.
"Besides Chandler." Tess grinned knocking her shoulder. "We were only looking at the half naked shoot of him in the magazine the other day and I didn't hear you complaining too much then." She smirked and Cats glare was redirected to her.
"Yes, he is easy on the eyes Tess that doesn't mean I want to play nanny for him."
"You get to live the Hollywood life for a while, it might be fun." Urged the taller woman but it seemed like she was making little progress.
"Well I'm not doing it tell them to ask the CIA or something."
"Catherine I'm afraid that's not possible, you will begin this assignment and you will start right now." Agent Reynolds sighed preparing him for the fireworks as the door clicked causing all three present in the room to spin and face the door. "Agent Chandler, I would like you to meet Vincent Keller." He mumbled as the man made his way into the room. "This is whom you will be protecting."
