Meaning Of Love
By the Untalented JOxER
Chapter six.
Captain Bridger sat in the patio chair just thinking of the past three days. Lawrence
escaping and Cynthia Wolenczak dies two days later? There was no physical connection
between the two but in Nathan heart- He knew Lawrence was responsible. Also that
Nathan learned more from Lucas passed, he knew that Lawrence had the guts to pull it
off. Captain Bridger also sat wondering how he was going to explain Ben Kriegs arrival.
He could tell the teen that Ben was going to set up some security device around the house
but that was not the real reason he called Ben. Ben was now going to be Lucas 24 hours
buddy. Wherever Lucas would go, Ben was sure to follow or be near. Nathan had also
insisted that Ben get some kind of locator on Lucas. Something that Lucas would never
suspect. Nathan thought at first that the locator was a bit too much security but thinking
of Cynthia and Matthew, it made it more necessary. Ben said that he knew something
and was going to see if the locator was still there. Nathan also made one last call after
hanging up with Ben. He only hoped that she got the message. It was 8 am when Nathan
looked at his watch. 'Damn, been here thinking for 3 hours now.' Nathan thought as he
got up from the chair and stretched. He walked in the kitchen and heard a soft knock on
the front door. Nathan went to the door and peaked through the door hole. Nathan
recognized the person and unlocked the door.
"Morning Ben." Nathan said as he rubbed his tired eyes.
"Mornin' Captain. Gee, you don't look too good." Ben said as he carried a box full of
supplies. The Captain just gave him 'Oh really look' and let the Lieutenant go inside.
"So what do you have for me Ben?" Nathan said as Ben placed the heavy box down on
the floor.
"Just the best in home security. The no-in security system x150 is the top of the line
Captain. Setting up this baby is not an easy task but once up, not even the most
experience criminal can come inside the house. It comes with sensors and cameras and
the alarm goes straight to the police." Ben said as he took the pieces of the security out of
the box.
"Did you get what I wanted?" Nathan said to Ben.
"Yeah captain." Ben said as he raised his shirtsleeve to expose a silver watch. Ben then
pulled out a small green device and handed to the captain. "This is all I could find. The
watch has a hidden homing device. Right behind the battery Sir." Ben said as he took of
the watch off and handed it to Nathan. "The tracker can be turned off and on by this
device. All you have to do is turn on the button." Ben said as he told the captain which
button to push. "And you can keep track of Lucas anytime." Ben said as he voice
lowered to a whisper.
"I know Lieutenant, I don't like this idea either but it is for Lucas own good." Nathan
said as Ben got all the equipment out of the box and began to survey the rented house.
Ben was off to work, installing the no-in x150. Nathan was about to go to the guest room
when there was another knock on the door. Ben was going to answer it when Nathan told
him not to, to go back to his task. Nathan once again pecked into the door hole and also
recognized the person. He opened the door and greeted the person.
"Hello Dayna."
"Hello. You must be Lucas' dad, Nathan Bridger right?"
"Yes. I left a message with your father this morning about Lucas. I knew he was not
going to tell you what happened but I felt that you needed to know."
"Yeah. My dad woke me up to tell me. I have been acting like a spoiled brat. Can I
come in?"
"Sure, let me get Lucas and tell him you're here." Nathan said as he let the girl in. Dayna
sat herself down in the living room while Nathan went to wake up Lucas.
"You must be Dayna." A man said to her as she sat in the living room.
"Yes I am. And you must be…?"
"Ben Krieg." Ben said as he began to set up the first of many small sensors around the
house. "I heard a lot of good things about you."
"Really? All I heard from you are all bad." Dayna teased. She knew all too well that Lt.
Krieg was a troublemaker and from what Lucas told her, he was a good joker around the
seaQuest.
"Hey, the kid lies too much." Ben said.
"Oh so you are saying that he lied to you about me?"
"Yeah. He said that you were pretty but that must of have been a lie. You are beautiful."
"A real Casanova." Dayna said as she heard footsteps coming down the stairs. Nathan
went on the other couch and sat in front of Dayna.
"Lucas just woke up and says that he will be down in a minute. I am glad you're here."
"I am too. I can't believe what is happening to him. He called me like three- four days
ago saying that he was sorry that he couldn't meet me. I didn't let him explain why, I
just hung up. Now I feel like such a big ass for not letting him explain why. He called
several times but I let the machine get the calls. I guess I never did hear them because
my little brother went in my room and erased all the messages."
"But I am glad you are here now. I think he will be excited to see you. He's been a total
mess the last three days."
"I would too. I am also so glad you called yesterday. If it wasn't for that, I would not
have come by, I can be a… and sorry for the language but I can be a bitch when I am
mad." Nathan laughed and so did Dayna. Their laugher ended when someone from the
stairs yelled to the people in the living room
"What's so funny down there?" A fully dressed Lucas asked as he ran down the stairs.
"Nothing you wouldn't understand." Dayna said as he got up from the living room couch
and made her way towards Lucas. Lucas stood there and waited till Dayna walked to
him.
"I so happy you're here.."
"So I have been told by everyone here. I'm so sorry Lucas. I shouldn't act the way I
have been acting.." Dayna said as she went to Lucas and gave him a hug. Lucas hugged
her tight as well. For about a minute the two hugged until Nathan cleared his throat.
"Why don't you two go out in the patio and talk there." Nathan suggested.
"Yeah. Thanks dad." Lucas said as he led Dayna outside in the patio. Nathan smiled at
the two, they had it bad. Nathan laughed silently and went to help out Ben in setting up
the security system.

Mark Shreeve had walked into the abandoned warehouse holding up the newspaper.
"Guess what Boss, you made the front page news." Mark said as he threw the paper to
Lawrence who was sitting next to Doran.
"Damn it Mark, why don't you let the door wide open and put a big sign across the street
telling the whole fucken world we are hear!" Doran said as Mark shut the warehouse
door hard.
"Shut up you two! Mark, don't call me boss. I said you could leave whenever you
wanted. I gave you the 100 grand. Why don't you leave like Byrne and Lohmeyer."
"Because we agreed if I help you out carry your little plan, I was sure to get more than
100 grand."
"Oh shut up and go sit the fuck down." Lawrence said as he began to read the newspaper.
He laughed as he read that the police had no suspects. He turned the page and saw that
they were still being looked for and that Captain Nathan Bridger had put a 50 thousand
dollar reward. Lawrence passed the newspaper to Razor and began to talk.
"Alright. I have promised you big money and you will see it when I get my hands on my
son. This is going to take all of us. We have to get him alone so we can take him."
"Where's Razor?"
"He's spying on Lucas right now. He is also doing some.. shopping…" Lawrence said as
he got up from the empty cargo boxes he sat on. "We are just going to wait until Razor
comes back."
-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*--*-*-*-*-**-*-*-**-*-*-*-*-*
Lucas and Dayna went to the patio and sat next to each other in the patio swing.
"Lucas."
"Dayna" The two addressed each other at the same time. "You first Day." Lucas said.
"I can not tell you how sorry I am for what is happening to you… I mean, I acted like a
brat. I should have let you explain everything when you called but I was mad that you
stood me up and I could…." Dayna babbled as Lucas leaned over and kissed her. Lucas
silent her with the kiss but after it was over, Dayna continued. "I can't start to explain
my actions. Steven erased all your messages and I had no…" Lucas leaned over and gave
Dayna a deeper and longer kiss. After the kiss, Dayna still continued. I had no right to
treat you the way I did." Dayna paused and saw Lucas reaction.
"You always have to speak your mind huh?" Lucas laughed. "I forgive you Dayna. I am
so happy that you came by today. I thought that I lost you." Lucas said.
"Not in your life time." Dayna said as she leaned on Lucas. "Are you ok? How are you
handling this?"
"Yeah. I am fine. I know my dad wont let anything happen to me. I know that and I do
believe that." Lucas lied. He was terrified that his real father was coming for him but he
didn't want to worry Dayna.
"I'm glad." Dayna said as she leaned to Lucas and gave him a kiss. Lucas pulled away
when he heard the patio door open.
"Good going kid." Ben said as he carried some wires and some cameras outside to the
patio.
"What are you doing here Ben?" Lucas said. Ben stopped dead in his tracks. 'Damn
Captain, you forgot to tell him' Ben thought as he notices Lucas looking over the stuff he
was carrying. "That's a security system… what?" Lucas said as he questioned Ben again.
"What is this?"
"Kid, it is a security system and your dad is only thinking of you. He really cares for you
and wants you to feel safe."
"He wanted me to feel safe but he never told me!" Lucas said as he got up from the
swing. Lucas went inside to the house and went to confront his father.
"What's was that?" Dayna said to Ben.
"I don't know but I am glad that I am out here when Lucas is going to blow." Ben said as
he went to do his job. Dayna also got herself off the swing and went inside the house.
Lucas went inside and found his father inside untangling some blue wire when Lucas
yelled for his father.
"What's wrong Lucas?"
"Why didn't you tell me?" Lucas said.
"Tell you what?"
"About the security. Were you going to tell me after I find a hidden camera somewhere
in my room?"
"I am sorry that I didn't tell you but I called Ben four hours ago Lucas. I was going to
tell you."
"You were! When Dad? Huh?"
"Lucas, you are overacting on this. I am only looking out for your safety."
"Oh sure. Spying on me all the time and… I just don't know why you didn't tell me!"
Lucas said as he felt someone pulling on his shirt. "Yeah?"
"Walk me to my car Lucas."
"Huh?"
"Walk me to my car." Dayna said as she grabed Lucas' arm and lead him to the front
door. Dayna and Lucas were now outside and walking towards Dayna's car.
"You don't know how lucky you are Lucas." Dayna said as she stopped in front of her
beat up Toyota tercel.
"What do you mean?"
"You have another chance with a great life with another father. You have a good thing
going for you. He is only looking out for you and that is because he loves you allot."
"But he should have told me that he was doing this! He didn't even bother to talk it over
with me.. to see if I was ok with it. Or something."
"You told me that the captain already lost a son right? Can't you see how much he loves
you Lucas? Just think about it. Even if he did talk to you, it wouldn't change his mind
on putting the system in. Just think about it. I have to go back home and change for
work. Please, just think about it." Dayna said went over and kissed Lucas. Dayna pulled
away and got in her car to start it. "I will call you later to see how you did." Dayna said
as she left the house and headed towards hers.
Lucas waved goodbye and stood outside the house, thinking on what Dayna said. Lucas
still felt sort of mad for his dad not telling him about it. They told each other everything.
Then again, Lucas still had some secrets about his past and he never did tell his dad about
the Jesse encounter on the roof so long ago.. Dayna's words repeated in his head- You
have another chance with a great life with another father. You have a good thing going
for you. He is only looking out for you and that is because he loves you a lot.. Lucas
almost kicked himself. He was getting upset over nothing. Lucas took a deep breath and
walked into the house.
As Lucas went into the house, he didn't notice a brown van that was parked a few blocks
away from the house and now was moving away. Razor had not seen the Wolenczak brat
but by the looks of it- the kid was living in a nice area now. Razor took note of three
sport cars in the drive way and razor whistled. 'Real nice expensive looking cars.' Razor
thought.
Razor had seen cars come in and first, he saw a man with boxes enter the house then
another car came around and a girl got out and also entered the house. Razor got his
binoculars and checked the girl out. 'Even in old faded jeans and a tee, she's fuckable'
Razor thought as the girl entered the house. An hour later, she came out with the
Wolenczak kid and saw that they both kissed. Razor laughed as he saw the kid had taste
and saw the girl drive away. Razor turned on the van; he knew this new piece of
information that Lawrence was going to like. Razor wanted to follow the girl to her
house but Lawrence told him to spy and return with the supplies. When he reached the
corner, the girl turned left and Razor turned right. 'It wasn't meant to be girly.' Razor
said as he memorized her license plates and went towards the computer gallery.
Nathan was still untangling the blue wire when Lucas came back in. Nathan sat the wire
down and began to walk towards Lucas.
"Lucas, I am sorry that I didn't.." Nathan began to say when Lucas interrupted him.
"Dad, don't. I am the one that should be sorry. I had no right to act the way I did. I
know your only looking out for me and I am grateful for that. But I still feel a little mad
that you didn't talk to me about this. I know I wouldn't like it anyways but I would have
felt better that you discussed this with me." Lucas said as he ran his hand through his
hair. He had picked up that habit from being around his dad too much. Nathan
recognized the frustration sign- Nathan would always run his hand though his hair
whenever he felt confused. Nathan went towards his son and gave him a hug. Lucas
hugged back but it was cut short when they were irrupted by someone screaming upstairs.
Lucas and Nathan both recognized the scream and headed towards Kristen's room.
Lucas went to the door first and opened the door, hoping that nothing bad had happened
to Kristen. Lucas opened the door and Kristen screamed again. Lucas quickly closed the
door and went to the edge of the top of the stairs. Nathan came behind him and asked
Lucas if he was ok. Lucas color was pale and he was breathing heavily. Lucas nodded
that he was ok and Nathan went towards Kristen's room. Kristen came out of the room
as Nathan opened the door. Kristen was raping a robe around herself.
"Nathan, someone's outside. I saw him peeking in my window!" Kristen said as she
went over to her window. Nathan followed her and inspected the window. Kristen also
looked out and yelled at the peeping Tom.
"BEN! What are earth are you doing near my window!" Kristen said to Ben. Ben was
on the floor and had some wires all over his chest.
"Explain yourself Lieutenant."
"Sir, I was putting in the new sensors and cameras near Dr. Westphalen's window. She
scared the living day lights out of me when she screamed like that! I swear Cap' that I
was not looking inside her window!" Ben said as he got up from the grassy floor. Nathan
began to laugh when Kristen gave him a dirty look. Nathan coughed and told Ben to go
back to what he was doing. Ben nodded and began to climb the ladder once again to
Kristen's window.
"I forgot to tell you Kris, I called Ben here to install a home security system… I know he
wasn't looking inside."
"Thanks for telling me but its too late! Ben could have died by that fall!"
"Yeah, you also could have made him deaf, you scream so loud!" Nathan said as he took
note of Lucas waiting outside of the doorway. Lucas color was still off but his breathing
was back to normal. Before the captain or Kristen could ask the teen if he was all right,
Lucas said that he was going to help out Ben and quickly left the room.
"I wonder what's wrong with him. You screamed at him." Nathan said to Kristen.
"Well he scared me. When he opened the door, I just got out of bed…" Kristen said.
"So?" Nathan said. Kristen pulled her rode loose and showed Nathan her nightgown.
Nathan was shocked that there was no nightgown and that Kristen was naked underneath
the robe. "Oh." Nathan said as he laughed again.
"Nathan!" Kristen yelled. Nathan only waved his hand goodbye and shut the door to her
room.

Mark Shreeve had walked into the abandoned warehouse holding up the newspaper.

Lawrence who was sitting next to Doran.
"Damn it Mark, why don't you let the door wide open and put a big sign across the street

Nathan was still untangling the blue wire when Lucas came back in. Nathan sat the wire
down and began to walk towards Lucas.
"Lucas, I am sorry that I didn't.." Nathan began to say when Lucas interrupted him.
"Dad, don't. I am the one that should be sorry. I had no right to act the way I did. I
know your only looking out for me and I am grateful for that. But I still feel a little mad
that you didn't talk to me about this. I know I wouldn't like it anyways but I would have
felt better that you discussed this with me." Lucas said as he ran his hand through his
hair. He had picked up that habit from being around his dad too much. Nathan
recognized the frustration sign- Nathan would always run his hand though his hair
whenever he felt confused. Nathan went towards his son and gave him a hug. Lucas
hugged back but it was cut short when they were irrupted by someone screaming upstairs.
Lucas and Nathan both recognized the scream and headed towards Kristen's room.
Lucas went to the door first and opened the door, hoping that nothing bad had happened
to Kristen. Lucas opened the door and Kristen screamed again. Lucas quickly closed the
door and went to the edge of the top of the stairs. Nathan came behind him and asked
Lucas if he was ok. Lucas color was pale and he was breathing heavily. Lucas nodded
that he was ok and Nathan went towards Kristen's room. Kristen came out of the room
as Nathan opened the door. Kristen was raping a robe around herself.
"Nathan, someone's outside. I saw him peeking in my window!" Kristen said as she
went over to her window. Nathan followed her and inspected the window. Kristen also
looked out and yelled at the peeping Tom.
"BEN! What are earth are you doing near my window!" Kristen said to Ben. Ben was
on the floor and had some wires all over his chest.
"Explain yourself Lieutenant."
"Sir, I was putting in the new sensors and cameras near Dr. Westphalen's window. She
scared the living day lights out of me when she screamed like that! I swear Cap' that I
was not looking inside her window!" Ben said as he got up from the grassy floor. Nathan
began to laugh when Kristen gave him a dirty look. Nathan coughed and told Ben to go
back to what he was doing. Ben nodded and began to climb the ladder once again to
Kristen's window.
"I forgot to tell you Kris, I called Ben here to install a home security system… I know he
wasn't looking inside."
"Thanks for telling me but its too late! Ben could have died by that fall!"
"Yeah, you also could have made him deaf, you scream so loud!" Nathan said as he took
note of Lucas waiting outside of the doorway. Lucas color was still off but his breathing
was back to normal. Before the captain or Kristen could ask the teen if he was all right,
Lucas said that he was going to help out Ben and quickly left the room.
"I wonder what's wrong with him. You screamed at him." Nathan said to Kristen.
"Well he scared me. When he opened the door, I just got out of bed…" Kristen said.
"So?" Nathan said. Kristen pulled her rode loose and showed Nathan her nightgown.
Nathan was shocked that there was no nightgown and that Kristen was naked underneath
the robe. "Oh." Nathan said as he laughed again.
"Nathan!" Kristen yelled. Nathan only waved his hand goodbye and shut the door to her
room.
