Chapter 3 "La Tormeta"
Xander got of the plane to see a short tan-skinned man jumping up and down holding a sign with his name on it.
"Hello Mister Xander Cage! Hello?" the little man yelled.
Xander laughed, grabbed his bags and walked over to the little man.
"You must be Alonzo." Xander said sturdily shaking the man's hand, he remembered how he would never have done such a greeting before his last mission. Working for the people he had once hated so much changed him in small ways.
"Yes, yes! And you must be Mister Xander Cage!" Alonzo said excitedly shaking Xander's hand.
Xander laughed.
"Alright Alonzo, you can just call me Xander, or X." Xander told him releasing the handshake.
"I think I will stick with Xander.... my accent isn't very good with your American "X" sound." Alonzo stated trying his best to make the sound of the consonant.
"Come now Xander, I'll show you to your car!" Alonzo said almost racing off to the parking lot.
When they arrived at the car Xander smiled, his GTO had been delivered to the Mexican airport. Gibbons surprised him sometimes.
"Well thanks a lot Alonzo it was nice meeting you." Xander told Alonzo reaching for his hand again.
Alonzo took it and shook it jumpily.
"De nada Xander Cage!" Alonzo said waving as he hurried away.
Xander wondered how Gibbons met these people. Then thought twice, he really didn't want to know. He got into his car and took a folder out of his bag. He pulled out a picture of what Dasha looked like, he had to admit she was gorgeous, maybe making her fall in love with him wouldn't be so bad after all. She had golden tan skin and long straight black hair, and the most beautiful eyes he had ever seen. He started the car and drove off towards Guilera.
After about an hour he arrived in front of "La Tormeta", the café where Dasha worked. He got out of his car and sat at one of the outdoor tables and waited for the waitress. Dasha happened to be the only one on duty outside, he lucked out. She soon saw him and walked over to his table. She stood in front of him with a pad of paper.
"¿Hola me llamo Dasha, cómo puede yo ayudarle?" she asked him.
"Um...habla inglés? Xander asked her flashing his most seductive smile as he looked up into her deep blue eyes
Dasha smiled back, 'this guys pretty cute. Might be nice to have a go with.' She thought.
"Finally someone who speaks my language. I'm Dasha, what can I get you?" she asked him.
"Well Dasha I'm Xander and I'd like an ice tea please." He said still smiling but he could not unlock his eyes from hers, Dasha began to notice and looked down at the table.
"You don't want like a beer or anything to eat?" she asked him.
"No, I don't really drink that often. Too early anyway." Xander answered her politely.
'Wow, someone whose not like me. That's pretty different.' Dasha thought to herself.
"Ice tea it is then." She said smiling as she took his menu and walked away. Xander couldn't help but watch the way her hips swayed.
'I'm going to enjoy this mission.' Xander thought to himself.
Soon Dasha was back with his ice tea.
"So, Dasha you must not be from around here." He said his eyes locking to hers again, they amazed him.
"No, I'm not, California actually." She said softly as if she had let some huge secret go.
"Really? So am I, Sacramento." Xander responded playfully.
"So what brings you here Xander?" Dasha said finally locking her eyes with his again.
"Just decided to go on vacation, my friend told me about this little town Guilera, its not what I'd thought it would be it's beautiful." Xander told her leaning over the table towards where she was standing.
"Yeah it is." She said looking around smiling; it was a lot different than where she had lived before.
"But not as beautiful as you." Xander finished.
Dasha laughed. 'Oh the pickup lines.' She said to herself.
"Why don't you let me take you to dinner tonight?" Xander asked her cocking his head to the side.
Dasha paused for a few moments, thinking to herself.
"Sure, I get off at 6." She told him writing down her address on a slip of paper.
"I'll pick you up at about 8 then?" Xander asked her.
"Sounds fine. See you tonight Xander." She said winking at him and walking back into the restaurant to finish her shift.
Xander sighed when she walked back into the restaurant. He hated to admit it but it was almost like it wasn't really a mission. He wanted this girl. She had been beautiful in the picture but she had enchanted him in real life. He had noticed quite a few scars on the inner sides of her arms; she didn't seem to be too private about that part of her life. She had been wearing a white tank top that clung to all the right curves. Xander figured that people in Mexico went with the saying 'Don't ask, don't tell.' So she didn't have to worry about what anyone thought of her arms. Xander finished his ice tea and hopped into his GTO to go to his hotel. So far it seemed like a piece of cake, but he knew that this girl had more layers than of just one piece.
