A/N : Thanks everyone for the wonderful reviews, you all are the best…. If you guys like this series, check out my other story's, If tomorrow never comes, and Everything he ever wanted…Those are still in progress, but I'd love to hear what you guys think….

The set of ears listening to Brody and LaSalle, had to decide how to proceed with this new information they had just found out. Should they confront them both or wait and use the info to their advantage….

Meanwhile Chris was busy clearing off his desk, he wanted to get done so he could head to Mere's place. He hoped she was going to share the contents of the box with him tonight. He looked up when he heard voices coming from the kitchen, he walked away from his desk and headed toward the kitchen. He saw Percy talking to a tall man, with a british accent.

"Hey Percy who's this here?"

"Says he's looking for Brody girl.. I was just 'bout to show him to her desk.."

Chris eyed the man up and down… "Brody already left for the day, said she had some stuff to do.."

Percy looked at Chris and raised her eye brow at him..

Chris reached his hand out to the man.. "By the way I'm Chris LaSalle and ya are?"

"James Lathom, Mere's ex fiancé, you wouldn't happen to have her home address would you?"

"Not a loud to give out agent's personal info, I'm sure ya understand that, for their own safety an all…"

Percy eyed Chris…

"Yes, of course.. I can just stop back tomorrow and see her then. Thank you both for your help."

James turned and left out of the kitchen and headed out to the streets of New Orleans.

"Spill LaSalle, why ya be'n all protective of Brody Girl?

"Noth'n I wouldn't do for anyone of us, NCIS regs state that we anit a loud to give out an agents personal info."

"Bullshit LaSalle, ya just didn't want him know'n where she lives…Ummm why is that…"

"Drop it Percy!"

Chris turned and left her standing in the kitchen, he walked back to his desk and grabbed his stuff. He then walked out of the bullpen through the courtyard to his truck. He got in and headed towards Mere's place.

Meanwhile Percy thought about what Chris told her, nothing made any since to her, why wouldn't Chris be willing to tell Brody's ex where she lives? Maybe Chris knew more about why they broke up than she did and he was only looking out for Brody? She had lots of questions and no answers for them.

Chris arrived at Mere's house, grabbed his bag out of the truck and headed for her house. He pulled his set of her house keys out of his pocket and opened her front door. He walked inside and set his bag down beside the door as he closed it and locked it behind him. He walked through her house looking around as he went, she had placed candles all around the living room and on the floor where red rose petals, Chris fallowed the rose petals, they went in two different directions, one set went to the coffee table another towards the bedroom. Chris fallowed the set to the coffee table first, he saw a gift wrapped box and a small crimson red gift bag. Chris picked up the box first and opened it, inside the box was a framed picture of Mere, she was sitting in an oversized chair wrapped in a University of Alabama flag. Chris felt a lump form in his throat, his Mere was more beautiful then he could have ever imagined, he ran his hand over the picture of her, this was something special that she made for him, after seeing this he couldn't imagine what could be in the bag. Still holding the framed picture, he opened the gift bag.

Inside the bag was a baby sized UA jersey and a stuffed Big Al, Chris smiled the baby was getting started off right. Chris placed the items back on the coffee table and followed the rest of the red rose petals towards the bedroom, he opened the door and looked around the room. There were candles all around the room and red rose petals on the floor and the bed. And seated in the middle of the bed wrapped in nothing but the same flag from the picture was Mere. Chris couldn't believe his eyes, no woman had ever done anything like this for him, he slowly walked over to the bed. Mere got up on her knees and dropped the flag onto the bed, she gave him a very seductive look, licked her lips and arched her back.

"Don't just stand there Bama, I'm ready to Roll Tide Roll with you."
