"Six the hard way!" the dealer called out. "Woo Hoo! Sam you're our lucky charm!" Dave Reisneck said happily." Yeah, you must stay and help us ride out this lucky streak!" Chimed in Dave's brother Chris as he side hugged her enthusiast all while clutching his chips.
Sam just half grinned and encouraged them on. After all, it was her job and that was what gave her the best sense on accomplishment. To know with out a doubt she was the best at what she did, even if that meant staying up 24 hours straight with the Reisneck brothers.
Danny was making his usual rounds of the casino floor when he noticed two men looking intently at something. He changed his route and came up from behind the men to see what they were looking at. Catching Danny looking at them the men bolted and split up each running the opposite way. Unsure of whatever they were doing but knowing something must be up he took off after one and paged Big Ed to send down some extra guys to grab the other one.
The guy ran through the crowd of people knocking over stool from the tables as he past. Danny just kept coming running like a track star over the stools as they were hurdles at a meet. The guy was slowly gaining ground and distancing himself from Danny, but when he looked back over his shoulder to see where Danny was he plowed right into Sam and the Reisneck brothers shoving Sam onto the craps table as he himself flew over her and landed on the other side. The chips from the table flew all over the place and the brothers quickly tried to grab their chips as they rolled all about on the ground.
Sam, surprised and having the wind slightly knocked out of her started to sit up on the table as she heard Danny yelling "Sam Stay Down!" She saw him running full bore at her and she flatten herself just as he jumped over the table and tackled the man as he was trying to get back up.
Danny flatten the guy once again to the ground. As soon as the guy was down again the rest of the team appeared from out of the crowd. "Take him to the waiting room." Danny told the security team. Sam slowly looked over at Danny "Ah, can I get off this table now?" Sam questioned. Danny moved to the table and gingerly touched Sam's arms as he helped her down off the craps table. "You OK?" Danny asked slightly worried. "Yeah, I'm fine a little more awake than I was just 5 minutes ago so that's actually a bonus." Sam replied was a smile. "Good, I have to talk to this guy but I will be back to check on you kay?" Danny said. "That's not necessary Danny. I'm good." Sam told him. Danny gave her a concerned look, then with wink "I just want to see you your smiling face again." And with that parting shot Danny turned around and escorted the team to the waiting room.
"Wow, Sam that was SO Cool!" Chris Reisneck exclaimed "You've gotta have that dude stick around with us!" Dave said also. Sam just smiled at Danny's retreating form and turn around to her excited clients. "He has to debrief the suspect and then there's paperwork and the police need to get involved. It will be quite a while before he can come back." Sam stated. "Heck! This craps is crap and we're going to need a new one. Why don't my brother and I grab a bite to eat and you get a new table with the SAME dealer and your pretty face by it and we'll start all over again." Chris said "Yeah, and then by that time maybe that dude with be done with all that stuff you said and he'll join us." Continued Dave. "Well, I can't promise you Danny, but I'll get right on that table and where would you like to eat?" Sam asked "What about the place right in here, the magic or mystic something like that." Chris said "Right no problem, I'll call right now so that when the two of you head over there it'll be all set." Sam sweetly replied. "Cool, sounds good then we'll get started all over again on the craps." Dave smiled as he and his brother left towards the club. "What? Uhh, wait a second guys you mean you want to start playing craps for ANOTHER 24 hours?" Sam asked nicely hoping to herself that, that wasn't the case. "Well course silly, We always have to play 24 hours straight it's our tradition." Chris replied "And since we were interrupted we HAVE to start again." Dave said "See you an a little while." They smiled and walked off together.
When Danny came into the waiting room Big Ed was already there along with Luis. "What's the verdict?" Danny asked "Well him and his pal have been doing a bump and grab tactic with different guests of our casino. We found over two grand in chips on this bozo from our casino and others along the strip." Big Ed replied. "There is already a warrant out for these two so I'm here to pick them up." Luis said as he started to escort the prisoner away. "Well this moron made a mess out of a craps table so I'm going to go back out there to get Nessa so she can supervise the clean up." Danny told Big Ed. "Fine, I'm done for the evening you sure you can handle the 3rd shift all by yourself?" Ed asked "It's fine, no worries, Say hi to your wife for me." Danny said as he headed out to find Sam.
Danny made it out to the floor in record time. Finding Sam still lording over the spilled craps table issuing orders to the staff. "Hey Sam! Let Nessa handle the clean up she's the one that has to sign off on the area before we can reopen." Danny said as he walked up to her. "Well, I have to make sure the Reisneck Brothers are happy they are planning on dropped some serious money at the craps table again." Sam replied. "Where Frick and Frock?" Danny questioned playfully. Sam just glance at him and had to smile, Dam! Danny was built! I'm sure that's why people leave it to the marines. "They are getting their energy up at the club. So once they get back don't be chasing anymore people over the craps table." Sam told him. "Oh, I'll see what I can do about that. But while Nessa oversees the cleanup why don't I treat you to a little energy boost yourself. And we can also get you checked out." Danny told her. "Are you going to be the one checking?" Sam flirted at Danny "Oh, I plan to do all my checking while you eat, I just want to make sure your fine from that little shove and fall you took." Danny slyly replied.
It was times like this that really made Sam's day, her little flirt sessions with Danny were always a highlight to any of her days. Heck! truth be told, he was the reason she had stayed at the Montecito so long to begin with. Yet, she wasn't one to give in so easy. "Danny I have a million things to do. Least of which is to waste my time with some doctor that will just tell me I'm fine." Sam told him "I'm not debating you look fine... but I just want you to get look over physically, by a professorial." Flirted back at her. Sam couldn't help it, a smile crossed her face and she knew she was done for. "Fine. I'll go and get checked out, happy now?" Sam said trying to sound angry. "Yes, but you innocently forgot the second part of that." Danny said waiting a moment for Sam to catch up. "Oh, yeah the whole dinner thing. Well that's fine too, but it'll have to be a working dinner cause I really do have things I need to get done." Sam replied "Ok, good. You go now and get checked out. I'll finish up here with Nessa, then finish my walk through and meet you at the side-car bar." Danny smiled at her "It's a plan. I'll see you there." Sam stated and with that she turned and headed towards health services.
Danny stood there just watching the sway of her hips and didn't even notice Nessa come up next to him. "Bugger, Danny. Just grow a pair and ask her out already mate." Nessa said watching Danny's eyes fixed on Sam's retreat posterior. "What... Huh?" came Danny's mumbled reply. Nessa just shook her head and rolled her eyes. Giving Danny a playful punch in the arm she turned around and started giving orders to the crew and watching to make sure all chips were indeed accounted for. Danny snapped out of his trance and smiled at Nessa. "You all set here?" he asked "I believe can I can handle this. You have bigger fish to fry." Nessa teased him back. "Yeah, yeah. I'll check back with you later." Danny half waved as he continued his round.
