Chapter two:

It was noon and Hal was going to be relived to he could go home and rest. "Cocoa Butter" Ranger said.

Hal opened it to see Ranger there. "Hey boss she is in here" Hal said and then Hal let her in.

Stephanie saw Ranger, "Hey Ranger"

"Babe how are you doing?" He said

"Fine but I want to go home." Stephanie told him.

"Soon we got one guy and we are working on catching the other one after that you are free to go." Ranger said.

Ranger then walked up and kissed Stephanie.

"Hal go home and get some rest." Ranger told him.

"Sure boss" Hal said then he opened the door and left. Ranger then went up to lock the door.

"So here we are." He said and then he picked her up and put her on the bed.

He then took off his shirt and pants. Stephanie gave a deep breath he then laid down on her. He started with her shirt. "Ranger I have to tell you something" She said and she rolled out from under him.

"I promised him I would not tell anybody but I have to tell you so you can stop this." Stephanie told him.

"Tell me what Stephanie and who did you promise?" Ranger looked at her with one eye raised.

"I am seeing someone and it not Morelli." Stephanie told him. Then Stephanie told him. "You don't want a relationship, and he does. I realized that you don't treat me really great and that reason I found someone new."

"Are you happy with him?" Ranger asked.

"Yes I am very happy with him" Stephanie told him.

"How long has this been going on?" Ranger asked while he was laying on the bed naked trying to understand this situation.

"About two weeks." Stephanie told him.

"All right, then." Ranger said.

He put on his pants and his shirt and said, "If you want to get some rest I will be in the living room"

Stephanie let out a deep breath and laid down on the bed while Ranger was in the living room working.

"Please be over soon" She said to herself.

Meanwhile at Hal's place Hal was laying down on his bed and could not stand the fact the Ranger was with Stephanie. "That is it, I know I made a promise but I have to let Ranger know that Stephanie and I are seeing each other." He then put on his clothes and left for the hotel.

While he was on his way up to the room that Stephanie was in he bumped into Tank. "Hey what is going on?" Hal asked. Tank ignored him and knocked on the door to the hotel room and said "Cocoa Butter" Tank said. Ranger then opened the door to see Tank and Hal standing there.

"What" Ranger growled.

"Boss we got the other guy Stephanie can go home now." Tank said and then they both looked at Hal.

"I need to talk to you boss" Hal said.

"Can it wait?" Ranger asked.

"No boss it can't" Hal said and then he saw Stephanie in the bedroom who was sleeping.

"Come on in. You to Tank I want you to hear this." Ranger said out loud.

Stephanie heard Hal's voice and came out of the bedroom.

"Hal and Tank what is going on?" Stephanie asked.

"You are free to go we caught the last bad guy." Tank said.

"Good I can go home" Stephanie said and then added, "Tank can you leave Ranger, Me and Hal alone for a few minutes."

"Sure I will be outside boss." Tank said and then left.

"Let me guess Hal is the man you are seeing." Ranger growled.

"Yes, and I would appreciate it if you would not tell anyone right now." Stephanie told Ranger.

"You, meet me on mats in two hours" Ranger said and then left slamming the door.

"Well that went well" Stephanie said and then came into Hal's arms, "Do you really have to face him on the mats?" Stephanie asked Hal.

"Yeah, he had this rule that no one but him touches you, so I have to face him" Hal said as he was holding her.

"That is a stupid guy rule and I hate him right now" Stephanie said.

"Hey it will be okay Tank trained me so I can give Ranger a good fight," Hal said and then asked did you want to go back to your apt or stay here for a while? "Can you take me back to my apt Hal, I just want to go home for now." Stephanie said as she was in his arms in the bland, white hotel room.

"Sure, I don't think this is going to go away with Ranger" Stephanie told Hal.

"No, I don't think so either, but I will deal with him" Hal said and then he lead Stephanie to his car and took her back to her apartment and Rex
