" Not expecting one person."
"One?" He looked at her confused. Did she forget that he was sitting here? And only because she wanted him to help her again?

"Yeah. You got a cell phone?" She asked, all the time looking intently at that building.

"What I want you to do is...is watch for the right time and then call for backup." That wasn't exactly what he had in mind when she told him she could find Hollis and dragged him into this potential Cruz disaster.

"You goin' in here by yourself ?"He couldn't believe it. But deep down it didn't really surprise him. Again, that was Cruz, taking risk nobody sane would. And yes, she was crazy.

"Yeah, I got a relationship with him. I'm gonna try and talk him out." She took out her gun and put it on the dashboard.

"No, I got my own gun."

"Yeah, but they are gonna search me." He took it without arguing. He had a serious misgivings about it but promised himself he wasn't going to be manipulated into something he was going to regret later. And for sure he wasn't getting involved into that mess. Last time was enough lesson for him.

"How am I gonna know when you're ready?"

"You'll know. " She opened the door and moved to get out.

"Hold on, hold on." He stopped her. There was something in her eyes, so different, soft and sad as if she was going to break down in a moment.

"Are you sure?" He looked at her searchingly as if trying to figure out the meaning of her decisions. Sensing in some way that it was going to be point of no return.

" There's no one I'd rather have backing me up." Watching closely her retreating form, still feeling her lips on his and trying to understand what it was all about he knew that something was very wrong. And that he didn't like it at all.

There was really one thing that came to his mind that exact moment. Something he should have done a long time ago when she left him in that bar after arguing about Noble's gun. He called Swersky.

Short but it's still something. Don't complain.:) Reviews, as always appreciated. Might speed up things a bit.
