I'm alright JoDee Messina

Well I hate to see this evening end
God only knows when I'll see you again
Just send a fax or send me a letter or give me a call that would even be better
Give the kids a kiss for me and say hello to the family
And tell them all my future's lookin' bright
Well, I miss 'em but I'm doin' alright
I said I miss 'em but I'm doin' alright
I'm all, I'm all, I'm alright
It's a beautiful day not a cloud in sight so I guess I'm doin' alright
o- oh, o- oh, I'm alright
Got a good old friend here with me tonight and I guess I'm doin' alright
Well I guess I'm doin' alright
I'm doin' alright

Bella had just slipped her shoes on when there was a knock at her door.

"Bella you decent?" it was Jasper.

"Come on it Jasper." She called.

"Are you ready?" Jasper asked.

"Yeah just let me grab my phone and bag."

"Could you put these in it?" Jasper asked.

"Of course. I'm sure Charlotte would love the surprise." Bella said.

"What was that about?"

"Parker." Bella mouthed. "Well we better be going or Peter would eat all the food before we get there."

"No he won't Char will smack him over the head with a fork or plate."

Bella grabbed her bag –after putting the file and cell phone in- and walked out of her room with Jasper. She knew Parker was watching her and Jasper. It was creepy but she, Jasper, Peter and Charlotte would come up with a plan to destroy him and the Volturi brothers and their father in the process.

"Hop in Bells."Jasper said holding the truck door open.

"What is this?" Bella asked holding up a small box.

"It's something that I got in town today. I knew I had been acting like a jerk and figured this would make up for it."

"It is a good start but it doesn't completely make up for it." Bella said. "And you do realize that it is worth about ten thousand dollars?"

"No I did not." Jasper replied. "I only paid twenty bucks for it."

"So that is like a really big profit margin if I sold it."

"I guess so and I didn't even realize it was a first edition. I just thought you would like an old looking version of Pride and Prejudice."

"You were right I would." Bella said. "I would like to read it now but we have a dinner to get to."

A few minutes later Jasper and Bella pulled up outside and dingy looking restaurant.

"I guess it's a good thing I went casual." Bella said.

"The food is much better than this place looks." Jasper said. "I promise, plus they have a room where the four of us can eat in privet."

"It'll be easier to so the information we have." Bella said.

"Bingo." Jasper said.

"If you two are done making goo goo eyes at each other we have food to eat and business to discuss." Peter said walking up with Charlotte right behind him.

The group walked in. Jasper stopped to talk with a balding man for a minute. The balding man then led them to a room at the back of the restaurant.

"The room is ready for you. I will send Lisa in few to take your orders."

"Just bring a few of the Platters in that way we can eat a little bit of everything." Jasper said. "And use only mild sauce."

Jasper than led the group into the room. They all sat down around the small round table. Charlotte and Peter were one side and Jasper and Bella were on the other said.

"So what did you two want to talk about?" Peter asked.

"This." Jasper replied pulling out the file.

"What is it?" Charlotte asked.

Jasper pulled three of the photographs out of the file and slid them face down on the table over to Peter and Charlotte.

"Are these pictures what you wanted me to show me earlier?" Peter asked.

"Yes. There's more to it than just the pictures but I want to wait until the food gets here before I show you."

"Is it that bad?" Peter said.

"Yes and it is because of Bella that we have it at all."

"What did she hack into some government computer?" Charlotte asked.

"I did not." Bella said. "I called my dad and had him look in to it. He can do it without getting in to trouble."

"How is he a hacker?" Peter asked.

"No he is a police chief but he did arrest a hacker once." Bella replied.

"Are you guys ready to order?" a waitress asked.

"I thought Lisa was going to be our server?" Jasper asked.

"She sprained her ankle and had to go home. I'm Jane and I'll be your server this evening."

"Okay we would like the platters so we can have a bit of everything mild sauce on the side and as for drinks you will have to ask them; I however will take ice water."

"What would the rest of you like?" Jane asked.

"Water," Bella, Charlotte and Peter said at the same time.

"I'll bring out a pitcher of Ice water so you can serve yourselves." Jane replied leaving the room.

Bella had waited for the door so close before speaking again.

"There is something odd about that girl," Bella stated.

"What do you mean?" Jasper asked.

"Just one of those feelings you know."

"I guess it comes from being a cop's daughter."

"There is that but it also comes from my mother's incompetence with any kind of responsibility." Bella said

Jasper squeezed Bella's hand to comfort her.

"I need the restroom," Bella said. "Do you know where it is?"

"It's down the hallway only the opposite side of it. There is a sign on the door so it shouldn't be too hard to find it." Jasper told her.

Bella got up and left the room in search of the bathroom.

"Is she alright?" Charlotte asked.

"Her mother is a sore subject with her." Jasper said. "She really doesn't like to talk –"

Jasper had cut himself off when the door had started to open.

"Here is your pitcher of ice water and your platters should be along in a few minutes." Jane said setting the pitcher on the table.

"Thanks Jane." Jasper said.

A few minutes later Bella came back and sat back down.

"Are you okay?" Jasper asked.

"I'm fine could you hand me the pitcher."

He handed it to her. Bella grabbed the handle and bottom of the pitcher so she wouldn't spill it. She felt a chunk of plastic on the bottom. She lifted the pitcher to see what it was.

"Bella what are you looking at?" Peter asked as Charlotte and Jasper just continued to stare at her.

Bella only answered by putting her finger to her lips and pointed to the bottom of the pitcher while looking at the bottom of it. She saw the chunk of plastic was indeed plastic. The chunk of plastic was small and could practically fit anywhere and most people wouldn't recognize it. She pulled it off to take a closer look before she handed it off to Jasper.

"Is that what I think it is?" Peter asked.

"Ohh it's so pretty." Charlotte said before writing 'Don't want whoever is listening to know we found it.'

"Yes." Jasper replied.

~!~

While Jasper and company discovered the electronic bug the waitress Jane was listening in on the conversation. Most of what she heard was the mindless chit chat as they waited for Bella to come back.

"Are you okay?" a male asked Jane knew to be Jasper asked.

"I'm fine could you hand me the pitcher."A female she assumed to be because she was the only one that had left the room.

"Is that what I think it is?" a new male said.

"Ohh its so pretty." A new female voice said.

Jane assumed the new voices to be that of the other couple in the room with Jasper and Bella. She didn't know who they were but had assumed the man to be Jasper's brother.

"Yes." Jasper replied.

Jane couldn't continue to listen in because she had to get out of the restaurant without being noticed by the rest of the staff. She may have been an FBI agent but if she was spotted it could ruin all the hard work she had put in to her case.

Jane leaned down to a waitress Lisa's face and said "You never saw me." After which she snatched up her bag and slipped out of the room and into the bathroom so she changed into street clothes in the bathroom before leaving the restaurant. Her close friend and partner in crime or law enforcement Alec was waiting for her when she got outside.

"How did it go?" he asked taking her bag.

"Good. The GPS tracker and bug are in place. I think the poor sap proposed to the idiot brunette." Jane said. "Now where is the car?"

"On the east side of the lot behind the black truck." Alec said. "It gave the biggest cover."

"I don't care as long as we get the job done. I want to get out of this two bit town as fast as possible." Jane told him.

"Hey the brothers are 'paying' us good money to do this. It was to—"

"We can't keep it and you know that." Jane snapped cutting Alec off. "You tell me every single time I start to complain about one little thing in this stupid town but we have a case to solve and I have the right to complane."
