Chapter Finding True Love
The next morning Stephanie woke up in Ram's arms. The sun was shining through the window and the birds were chirping. "Hello darling" Stephanie said, and then she turned and kissed him on the lips. After a while Ram got up and then went into the bathroom. He was in the bathroom, when there was a knock on the door. Stephanie looked at the camera, and saw that it was Lula and Grandma Mazur.
"How the heck did they find me?" Stephanie said out loud.
"Sweetheart what is it?" Ram came out of the bathroom without his shirt on and looked at the camera, "Oh shit" was all he could get out.
"Hey white girl, I know you are here, come on we want to talk to you." Lula told her.
"Stephanie go into the bedroom, shut the door and stay put." Ram told her sternly.
Steph, went into the other room praying that Ram could get rid of them.
Ram opened the door, "Wow look at that white muscular chest." Grandma Mazur said and then touched his chest.
"Grandma please behave yourself." Stephanie told her when she came out of the bedroom.
"See I knew she would be here." Lula told her.
"What are you doing here?" Stephanie asked them.
"We came to see if you were all right we heard about the apartment blowing up." Grandma Mazur told her.
"I am fine, other than a broken arm." Stephanie told them with a strained face.
"We see that, and your mom wants you to come to dinner on Friday night." Grandma Mazur asked her.
"I don't know grandma, I will have to make sure it is safe for me, right now I can't make it but I will let her know." Stephanie said to her as she sat down on the couch.
"Sweetheart I hate to break up this party, but they can't stay here much longer?" Ram told her as he sat in the recliner after putting on a shirt.
"I know, listen you two I know that you care, and I will be in touch when I can, but you have to go now. You can't tell anybody where I am got it." Stephanie demanded.
"Okay white girl we are going and we promise, we won't tell anyone." Lula answered her. Grandma Mazur gave Stephanie a hug, and they both left.
Nobody noticed the Rangman SUV that pulled up in front of the house as Grandma Mazur and Lula left.
After the ladies left, Ranger got out of the SUV walked up to the door. He picked the lock, and then he clipped the wires to the alarm.
He saw Stephanie lying down on the couch. He walked up to her, and her spidery sense went off. She got up and tried to find something she could hit him with. He came up to her and said, "I am doing this for your own good." He then grabbed her and put a cloth to her face, and then she was out. He picked her up, but he did not notice Ram standing behind him. "Let her go Ranger" Ram blurted.
He turned around, "What the hell are you doing here you are supposed to be in Chicago." Ranger thundered.
Ranger did not know that Ram hit another silent alarm, and that Tank was on his way.
"Ranger let her down easy," Ram told him in a stern voice
Ranger put Stephanie down on the floor behind him. He punched Ram, and Ram stumbled. He came back up, they locked heads, Ranger tried to put Ram in a head lock but he failed. All of a sudden, Ranger pulled a gun. "Don't try it Ram I will shoot you."
"I will shoot you then Ranger." Tank raged. Ranger turned around to see Tank, standing in front of him with a semi-automatic. Tank took Ranger's gun. "Now put your hands behind your back, you are under arrest for attempted kidnapping." Tank said, all of a sudden Ranger punched Tank with the metal knuckles he had put in his pocket, in which he took off.
Ram called for backup and he also asked for Bobby. He picked Stephanie up and put her in the bedroom. "Ranger knocked you out with chloroform please will you wake up sweetheart." Ram softly spoke in her ear.
Hal, Manny and Bobby came in. They saw Tank unconscious. "Tank will be fine. "I am going to check on Stephanie." He walked into the bedroom and saw Ram sitting on the bed next to Stephanie.
"Hey Ram, can I have a look at her." Bobby said to his friend.
"Sure, I will leave, no Ram that won't be necessary you can stay. I have a feeling that she is going to wake up soon and will want you near her." Bobby told him nicely.
A few minutes later, "What happened I feel like a ton of bricks" Stephanie wailed.
"It is all right sunshine, you are fine, Ranger just hit you with chloroform. So you will be a little tipsy for a while." Bobby told her.
She sat up in bed, and saw Tank standing in the doorway to the bedroom.
"What happened how did he find you two." Tank said seriously to Ram.
"Somehow Lula and grandma Mazur found us so he followed them" Ram told him.
"Shit, all right, I hate to do this but for now you two will have to go out of State until we find Ranger. I will have two tickets, in the hour to Georgia, where you will work at the Rangeman there until we catch Ranger. It is the only way to keep you two safe for now." Tank told him then got on the phone with the airport. Ram looked at his sweetheart and sat down next to her and held her for a while.
When Tank got off the phone, "The tickets are ready, you leave in an hour. Stephanie I will let your mom know that you are going to be out of town for a while and that they should not worry."
"Are you ready sweetheart, can you walk yet?" Ram asked her.
"Yeah, let's get out of here?" Stephanie replied to Ram, and then they left Ram's safe house and headed to the airport to get out of New Jersey until Ranger was caught.
