Chapter 5:Time for Take Off
"Hey, honey, do you want to go for a walk," Emily asked.
"Sure," Alex replied. It was the night before they had to leave. They had just got back from dinner. They went to the same little restaurant they did on their second night that they had spent there. They shared an entrée. It was Chicken Parmesan. They talked and laughed and had a great time. They were now entering the beach. They walked, holding hands, along the same path that they walked every night. They were talking, relax, and quieting down. Their talking was almost a whisper to each other. They walked and talked. It was clear that both loved spending time together with each other.
When they got back to the hotel they kissed goodnight, which was casual by now but, Alex still liked kissing her and she kissed her back. Alex went into the room and found a letter on his bed. It read:
Dear Alex and Emily,
I hope that you two are having fun. Alex was having a lot of fun, he thought to himself. As you know your mission will start tomorrow and you will need to tell your driver to take you to the harbor by 1:00 p.m. tomorrow afternoon. You will meet me tomorrow for breakfast at 9:00a.m. Just tell your driver to take you to The Buolinni. There we will talk about how you two are going to get in there and out and contact my team without getting seen. We also have other matters to discuss. I hope you rest up because your mission starts in two nights. I hope that you two will join me tomorrow morning. A letter has been sent to both of you.
Yours truly,
Agent Wolf
After reading that Alex took a hot bath and relaxed the rest of the night. He fell asleep at midnight. He woke early the next morning. He woke up. He put on some clothes and went over to the door and walked out. He was on his balcony. It was a beautiful view. It overlooked the Mediterranean Sea.
"Having sleeping problems too?"
Alex turned to see Emily, standing on her own balcony. "Not really just a early start."
"I'm having trouble sleeping," she explained. "I'm nervous."
"Of what?"
"You know, the mission," she replied.
"Oh, that. Well, it's really no big deal. This seems to be the safest mission I've been on yet."
"Hah, real safe, going to an island with about a billion soldiers and about the most successful and dangerous thief in the world, real safe," Emily said sarcastically.
"When you say it like that it sounds horrible, but when you get out there…the rush… you just get caught up in it all, one point you have a gun at your head… the next your free and your side has won. You just don't realize it. When you're out there it's natural instinct that you need. You've never been out there before so just believe me. You can have all the training in the world, I mean sure it helps, but really what you need is the ability think quick and go by your own gut instinct. And by what you've said you used plenty of that when you were kidnapped," Alex finished.
"That's the thing," she replied, "I'm not sure, what if I hesitate and I cost both of our lives."
"You won't, I know you too well."
"Thanks, honey, I love you,"
"I love you too," And with that they both walked back into their rooms and relaxed and tried to get some sleep, but neither could. They were both thinking the same thing, I hope I don't get the other person killed.
