The flight seemed to take forever. Stiles could not stop thinking about Terri. As soon as this was over they could start planning their future.

Terri took Joshua's advice. She used Stiles car and drove home. She sat on the couch thinking about the evening. She looked at her finger and pictured the ring on it. She couldn't wait until he got home. She cleaned up from dinner and went up to bed. She wasn't going to sleep too long she wanted to be there when Stiles and Lex checked in.

The plane finally landed at Dublin Airport. Stiles did love being back in Ireland, he wanted to have Terri there to show her everything. He wanted to tell her all about his grandmother. Stiles was thinking a lot about his grandmother. He knew she would love Terri as much as he did.

Lex got off the plane first. He stopped at a newsstand to make sure Stiles got in contact with O'Brien. He would make the first report. As Stiles walked off the plane O'Brien ran up to him and greeted him with a hug. "Pat, its great to see you, Welcome home."

"Danny boy, I was going to take a cab." Danny whispered something to Stiles, he nodded and the two of them walked by Lex. Stiles gave Lex a thumbs up as he walked by.

Lex began to settle in at the bar. He met with another agent from British Intelligence named Bill. Together they set up surveillance camera's and listening devices around the bar before opening. Lex called in to say they were set up and make sure everything was working. He told them Stiles was with O'Brien. Now they were back to waiting. The bar was called Flannagan's and it was a known hang out for IRA. They were hoping Stiles would be making regular visits there. It would probably be the only contact with him.

As planned that first night Danny came walking into the bar with Stiles he announced loudly, "I want everybody to meet my cousin Pat." Several of the men came out patted him on the back and welcomed him as one of them. Stiles wasn't sure who was with the IRA. The other British agent offered to buy him a beer. The two walked to the end of the bar, so that Lex and Stiles could talk. As they were talking Stiles heard a familiar voice. It was one of the Ryan brothers. He would find out if they recognized him.

Danny, Stiles and the brothers sat at a table in the corner. This was the usual table the brothers used so they made sure there was a camera and bug there. Tommy looked at Stiles and said "You look familiar, do I know you?"

Terri was watching the surveillance on the monitor. She looked at Jackson and saw a panicked look on his face. Gage just held his breath and put his hand on Terri's shoulder. Joshua had put his hand on her other shoulder. This really scared Terri. She wanted to ask what was going on, but was too afraid.

Stiles said "No. I don't think so."

Danny added "Pat's wife and unborn baby boy were killed by the Brits, he left years ago and hasn't been back since. I told him about the plan"

Stiles finished the sentence for him "and now I'm done grieving and ready to make those bastards pay."

The two men nodded and Tommy said "Lets go meet BL."

They all got up and walked out of the bar.

Terri could sense the relief in the room, she looked at Joshua and asked to speak to him in his office. "What was that all about?"

"Those two men didn't like Stiles when he was younger. We were afraid that they might recognize him." Terri tried to keep her composure. Gage waited where he could see if she was ok, without her knowing he was there. Joshua continued "Terri, they don't know who he is."

Terri left the office and found a single rose on her desk. The card just said "Thinking of you." She smiled and felt a little better, but she was still worried about Stiles.
