CHAPTER 1: GETTING TO MEXICO, ABBY...
ABBY P.O.V.
"He said I was in trouble, didn't he?" I asked, wondering why the director wanted to see me.
"Actually..." The assistant began.
"I mean, using government band width to make private voice over IP phone calls. I know that's against regulations. Even if it was for children prevent four million newborn deaths every year...four million! Every year! You know what? I make no excuses." I said and had not let her finish.
"I don't think the director wants to talk to you about save the children." The assistant tells me.
"Then the infrastructure database that I loaned Habitat for Humanity?" I asked.
"Uh-huh." She replied.
"Okay, then could that just stay between us?" I asked hopefully.
"He already knows." She told me.
"Huh, so what is it?" I asked.
"Remember Alejandro Rivera, from the Justice Department in Mexico?" She asked me and I smiled.
"All of him." I said.
"He wants you to fly down to Mexico to speak at some law enforcement symposium their Justice Department is hosting." She told me.
"Nice! When do I leave?" I asked.
"Today I think, but the director doesn't want you going alone. Says Mexico is too dangerous these days. So he's sending an escort." The assistant told me.
A thought popped into my mind of who it could be...
'McGee.'
Why would the director send McGee with me though? When McGee has failed to keep me safe before...
"Oh, God, as long as it's not, McGee. I mean he's never fun to travel with anyways and he's been acting squirrelly every since Alejandro tried to undress me with his eyes." I said.
Then the thing I didn't want to happen did.
"Hi, the, uh, director wanted to see me?" McGee said.
The assistant smiled and though I knew what I was, thinking wasn't true, but couldn't help it.
Someone had set this up to where McGee would be going with me. McGee looked at me and smiled.
"Hey." He said I smiled back and then looked away.
'Was this someone's idea of a joke?'
MEXICO...
ABBY'S P.O.V.
"Hi." I said jumping out of the car. "Hey, Abs... Abs, slow down." I heard McGee say from behind me.
"I don't want to miss anything." I told him.
"Like what the burrito bar?" He asked.
"Are you going to be a party pooper this entire trip, McGee?" I asked.
He followed me.
"You know the last time I was in Mexico, Montezuma got his revenge on me in a very, very big way. I was sick for a month." He told me.
"It's called bottled water, McGee. Maybe this time you won't be so cheap." I informed him.
"You saw the text Tony sent me. I mean look at that. It has to be a serial killer. As soon as I go out of town, you know, they..." McGee was cut off.
"Abby! Bienveido ." Alejandro said kissing my hand.
"Hola." I replied and McGee looked a little jealous.
"Ah, so thrilled you could make it. I trust your flight was pleasant?" Alejandro asked.
"Oh, it was. Boy, my-my arms sure are tired." I said with a laugh and Alejandra laughed too.
"Not to tired I hope. You're going to need them." He told me.
"Uh, for what?" McGee asked.
"Uh, we have a stack of old cold cases waiting for you and a class of eager students hoping you will share your forensic expertise with them." Alejandro replied.
"Sounds like I'm going to be busy." I said.
"Si, but not so busy, perhaps that you will not have time for..." Alejandro began.
"Let's just say busy and leave it at that." McGee said and I could feel how jealous he was.
"Oh, I...I apologize. Agent McGoo, no?" Alejandro asked.
"McGee." McGee corrected.
"Oh, unfortunately, there is only one room available at the Justice Department guest quarters."Well then, we'll check into a hotel." McGee told him.
"Yeah, I do not recommend it. The entire reason for this symposium is the escalating violence from the local drug wars. I really must insist you stay here together however distasteful we...all may find it." Alejandro said.
I looked at McGee and he looked away.
He made a face and nodded his head yes.
