Disclaimer: I don't own them, well except Seal, JE does, and I bow at her feet.
I walked onto the fifth floor at RangeMan to see all the guys gathered around getting ready for a distraction. I looked around at all the guys, and noticed Les was dressed up to the nines. Hmmm… this could be fun.
" 'Sup guys?" About half of them flinched when I said that. Shows who was aware of their surroundings.
"Kitten, what's doin?" Cal nodded his head fractionally at me.
"Just dropping off some papers for the Bossman. He in?" I tilted my head towards Ranger's door. Cal shook his head at me.
"Nah, Kitten, he's out. Had plans for the night." I raised an eyebrow at Cal, yes that took lots of practice, and started towards the door.
"I don't wanna know. I'm just going to leave these on his desk for him to find when he gets back then." When I walked back into the control room I noticed that they were wiring up Les.
"So, who you going after tonight?" Les looked up and meet my eyes. It wasn't unusual for him to do distractions, in fact he did all the one's that I wasn't 'equiped' for. I was just curious.
"Susan Hedersen. Files over there if you want to look at it." That name sounded familiar, but surely it couldn't be her. No way, last I heard she had moved to California. I opened the file and sure enough, it was her. Damn.
I looked back over to Lester, all dressed up and ready for action, and all the other guys running around trying to get this takedown ready to go. I could barely keep the smile off my face. How to tell them, their plan isn't going to work.
Seal came up behind me and wrapped his arms around my middle. "Susan Hedersen, thirty-one years old, wanted for assualt and battery." He read out loud from over my shoulder. He nuzzled his nose into my neck and whispered so that only I could hear him. "You know something don't you? I see that look on your face." I worked to wipe my face blank before answering him.
"Yes, I know her, and their plan isn't going to work. I'm trying to figure out how to tell them that so that they will listen to me." Seal tightened his arms around me, and his chest started shaking in silent amusement.
"Good luck with that one, Love. It looks like they are all set to go, so you better hurry." I took a deep breath for courage, and cleared my throat to get the guys attention. Tank and Cal both looked up at me while the rest of them kept going about their business. Nice.
"Ummm, you might want to rethink your plan here guys. Are you sure this is gonna work?" What can I say, I knew this was charging the bull head on so to speak, but really, if they don't want to pay attention to what I have to say then ok, let them fall on their asses so to speak.
"Oh Beautiful," Lester replied, a sarcasticly pitiful look on his face. "I might even break your record with this one tonight."
"I wouldn't be so sure about that one Casanova." I kept my face blank. I know, I know, I'm baiting him, but damn he pushes my buttons. Besides, I owe him one. But that's another story, I suppose.
I could feel Seal behind me shaking even harder with laughter. Ass, he would find this funny. I'm blaming PMS myself. "But if that's how you want to play it, sure go ahead. Can I ride along? If that's what you want? Might be fun." I fluttered my eyelashes and tried for the innocent look and Seal almost lost it.
"Uhh sure Beautiful, you are more than welcome to ride along." I turned to Seal, and smiled up at him.
"Are you coming too?" He grinned and planted a quick hard kiss on my lips.
"Of course, I wouldn't miss this for the world." He leaned down and whispered in my ear, "I love seeing you in action."
I turned back to the guys to see Cal and Tank looking at me with a calculating look in their eyes.
"What are you up to Kitten?" I pasted on my innocent look again.
"Why nothing Big Guy. Just want to see Casanova over there in action. It's always a treat, to see him walk in and melt all the women in the place on the spot." I shot a cheeky grin at them and Cal raised an eyebrow back at me. Tank looked sceptical. I knew that they both were wondering what I knew about Susan, but neither one said anything. Either Lester was getting on their nerves too, or I was back to being entertainment again.
"Well, let's load up and head out. We got a skip to bring in." Oh boy, this was gonna be fun. I mentally rubbed my hands together and cackled to myself. Payback's a bitch.
