Chapter 13
The Mission's Speed Bump
About a half an hour later the four of them were at Stephanie's parents house.
They walked into the house. "Where were you?" Helen asked her mother.
"You don't want to know, but I am going to get ready now and call Rangeman to sign up for gun safety course." Grandma went skipping upstairs.
"Please tell me she is joking?" Helen begged.
"Nope sorry Helen she's not." Morelli told her.
"You will all be here for dinner Friday night" Helen asked.
"If we don't have to work Helen then yes, we will see you on Friday. Tank said and then they three of them walked out of the house.
"What a day" Tank said, as they drove back to the house.
When they got there they saw Ranger.
"Don't" Tank told him.
"I heard" Ranger told them.
"I told you don't Carlos" Tank said again
"Grandma already signed up for the gun safety course." Ranger said shaking his head.
"Who is teaching this one?" Tank asked.
"Lester" Ranger answered.
"Och, tell him I said good luck" Tank said out loud.
"What did it cost you Tank" Ranger asked.
"Dinner here tomorrow night." Tank told him.
"And he as to be here, Rodney told me so. They also saw this"
"Good luck especially you Morelli" Ranger walked out of the house laughing/
"What does he mean by that" Morelli said out loud.
"Rodney is gay, Morelli" Tank said as he went back up stairs to try to get some work done in the nursery.
"Oh boy" Morelli said.
"I am hungry what did Ella leave for us tonight." Stephanie opened the fridge and took out a chicken sandwich.
The next morning Tank went into the kitchen and saw Ella, cooking up a storm.
"Hi Tank" She said.
"Ella, Ranger sent you over?" Tank asked.
"Yup, he knows that none of you know how to cook." Ella told him.
"You're the best Ella" Tank told her.
"I know." Ella replied.
Ella saw Stephanie come into the kitchen"
"Smells good," Stephanie started to walk over to the crock put.
"Touch it and die." Ella said out loud.
"Okay" Stephanie said.
"I made you a bowl in the fridge, all you have to do is heat it up." Ella said and then left the house.
A few hours later, "Hey bro" Rodney yelled out loud.
"Hi" Felicia said as she saw Stephanie sitting at the island in the kitchen.
"Hi, I am Steph."
"You the Stephanie" Felicia said with a smile on her face.
"Yes, the female, bond's official, who helps with Rangeman with some cases." Felicia said out loud.
"Yes, glad to meet you." Felicia said as she took a stool.
"So you, who are you?" Rodney asked Joe.
"Joe Morelli, I am working with your brother currently." Joe told him.
"Okay, you're an undercover just like me" Felicia told him.
"Yeah, you're good, many years of experience." Felicia told him.
"So when did you get married Pierre" Felicia asked and who is my sister in law." Rodney asked.
"Funny Rodney, Stephanie." Pierre told them.
"Something smells good," Rodney said as he walked over to the crock pot.
Felicia and Rodney took the lid off and smelled the beef stew.
"Ella" They both said at the same time.
Just then the phone rang. "Quiet everyone" Pierre told them.
"Yes" Pierre told Todd.
"Todd and Tiffany are going to be at St. Pierre's restaurant on Saturday night 7pm be there and have Thomas ready for guard duty." The voice told Pierre then was gone.
Just then Tank's Rangeman's phone rang.
"Hey, Carlos I suppose you heard that." Tank said over the phone.
"Yeah, see if Babe's little black dress still fits her." Then Ranger was gone.
"Little one go show Felicia your little black dress, and that means show it her."
"Okay, let's go I show you my other two dresses too." Stephanie and Felicia left for the master bedroom.
"Ball game" Rodney said.
"Sounds good." Pierre, Joe and Rodney went into the living room to watch the game.
