Chapter Eleven: Treasuring Kiss
Ben walks through the door and everyone else followed him. Ana takes in a gasp as she sees gold...everywhere.
"Oh my God." she breaths and looks around.
Abi walks over to some scrolls and looks in awe.
"Scrolls from the Library of Alexandria. Could it possible?" she asks to no one in particular.
Ana runs up and gives her a big hug and Abi returns it. Ana sees Mr. Gates smile at his son in a happiness as he starts to look around. The two girls release each other and look around. Ana turns around and sees Riley.
"It's a big blue-green man with a strange go-tee. I guess that's significant." he finishes and hugs the statue.
Ana walks up behind him and coughs. He turns around and smirks as if nothing happened.
"Should I leave you two alone? Because, you know, there are other people you know." she states like a smart ass with a smile.
Riley laughs sarcastically and continued looking around. Ben looks over as a post like thing. He picks up something and lets it run through his fingers. It looks like some kind of gun powder from what Ana could tell. Ben puts his torch to it and it lights up and runs down the middle of a wall. The fire runs through the middle of the room lighting up a bigger room and more treasure. Ana walks over and stands at the balcony. Abi, Riley and Patrick walk over too and look in awe. Ben looks at his father.
"Yes!" shouts Patrick clapping a hand on Ben's shoulder.
Ana turns to Riley and throws her arms around his neck and bringing him into a hug. He surprised at first but hugs her back. Ana moves away slightly with her arms around his neck still and she is facing him. Hazel eyes connected with blue eyes. Riley leans down and Ana feels in the space with a soft kiss. Ana breaks away for a moment and she smiles. Riley returns that smile and kisses her again. They break away and go back to looking at the treasure.
"Enjoying your self?" Abi whispers to Ana.
She smiles and looks back at Abi and answers, "Very much, yes."
She returns her smile and walks over next to Ben. Ana look at Riley and frowns.
"Riley, are you crying?" she asks almost about to laugh.
"Look...stairs." he answers looking at the far, dark part of the room.
She looks over to see stairs and she laughs at Riley and hugs him.
Mr. Gates, Abi, Ana and Riley are sitting on the alter in the church. Ben walks up to Agent Sudusky as he walks in. He hands him the Declaration.
"Just like that?" Sudusky asks taking it.
"Just like that." Ben repeats.
"You do know you just handed me the biggest bargaining chip." Sudusky says.
"The Declaration of Independence is not a bargaining chip. Not to me." Ben replies.
"Have a seat," Sudusky says sitting on the Alter and Ben sits near him, "So, what's your offer?"
"How about a bribe?" Ben starts, "Say, 10 billion dollars?"
Sudusky smiles and says, "I take it you found the treasure?"
"It's about 5 stories below your shoes." Ben says to him.
"You know the Templars and the Free Masons believed that the treasure was too great for any one man to have, not even a king. That's why they went to such length to keep it hidden," says Sadusky.
Ana tunes out on them talking and puts her head on Riley's shoulder. He puts his arm around her. Abi smiles at them and says, "It's about time."
They both look at her.
"I haven't the slightest idea of what you're talking about, my dear Abi." Ana replies and looks at her.
"You know, both of you, very well what I'm talking about. It was obvious the day you two met that you like each other." she says and leans back, her hands supporting her.
Abi looks over at Ben and smiles, "Though, you could say the same for me when I met Ben. Though, when i met him, he was Paul Brown, not Ben Gates."
She looks over at Ben with pear bliss. Ana takes her chance, "Love struck." she coughs.
Abi looks at her slowly and glares then looks away. Riley smiles at Ana and kisses her forehead. He couldn't be any happier. Even he is possibly going to be rich, he has the girl he feel in love with about a week ago. Ana starts listening to Ben a gain.
"Okay, here's what I want," Ben starts, "Dr. Chase gets off completely clean, not even a little post-it on her service record."
"Okay," says Sadusky nodding.
"I want the credit for the find to go to the entire Gates family with the assistance of Mr. Riley Poole and Miss Ana-Marie Pontius," says Ben looking in the direction of Riley and Ana. He smiles at them and they both return it. Ben then looks at his father who is smiling proudly at him.
"And what about you?" Sadusky asks.
"I really would love not to go to prison. I can't even begin to describe how much I would love to not go to prison," says Ben to Sadusky.
"Someone's gotta go to prison, Ben." Sudusky says with a slight smile.
"Well, if you've got a helicopter, I think I help with that," says Ben.
"Okay," says Sadusky, "Where to?"
Ana smiles and stands up. Riley goes to protest but she gives him a smile and walk over to Ben and Sudusky.
"We go to Boston." she says.
Ben smiles at her and stands up as well.
"I take it she's joining you?" Sudusky asks, standing up and looking at Ben.
"Yes, she is." he replies.
"Al right." Ana says imitation Quagmire from Family Guy.
Ben laughs at her and he walks over to the other three. They all stand up. Ana walks over and stands next to him.
"Ana and I going to Boston to catch Ian. What you guys need to do is find a hotel to stay. we'll meet you there in a while." he says and gives Abi a kiss before walking off.
Ana brings Riley into a kiss and breaks away, "I'll see you in a while, okay?"
"One more kiss?" he asks with a smirk.
She smiles and kisses him lightly one more time before heading off.
