I turned on the TV and Joe put the pizza on the table.

"So what made you decide to have pizza now?" he asked flipping through the channels as I picked up a piece of pizza.

"I actually have questions about the Salvadors. I mean how bad are they?" I asked taking a bite of pizza. Mmm, Pino's.

"Why are you asking about the Salvadors? They are really bad Cupcake, you don't want to get involved with them. They're evil," Joe said, "that was safe!" Joe got up and yelled at the TV. He sat back down got a piece of pizza and I pulled out a picture with just Ethan in it.

"Do you know who this is?" I asked handing him the picture and grabbing another piece of pizza.

"Yeah, that's Alec Rossini. He's on the force, actually I haven't seen him in a while," Joe said, "so what about him?"

"He's a cop?" I asked feeling relief, Lester probably wasn't the mole. Yay!

"Yeah. Why?" Joe asked, turning is attention away from the TV.

"And you say you haven't seen him at work in a while?" I asked, putting the pieces together.

"Nope."

"Do you know if he's on an undercover operation? If you ask anyone at RangeMan they say that this is Evan Szchoski, Astro Salvador's second in command," I informed him. Morelli's eyebrows raised.

"I guess it's possible, I mean I've heard a few rumors that we were trying to take them down. Apparently, the Salvadors were doing a kiddie porn ring," Morelli said, "the higher ups are even in on this. We're having a meeting tomorrow at nine a.m. I'm not really sure what about, but it's probably about the Salvadors."

"That's interesting. Can you tell me what you find out tomorrow?" I asked picking up my third piece of pizza.

"Why are you so interested in this Cupcake?" he wondered.

"RangeMan has some undercover guys in there, and one of them was killed. And so was Ranger," I said, tears filling my eyes, "I'm trying to figure out what happened."

"Do you think there's a mole?" Morelli asked, being the ever vigilant cop.

"It's a suspicion," I commented looking back at the game. The Mets were up by three and the Oriels were down.

"Yes!" Morelli said as we made another homerun. He had jumped out of his seat.

"Do you want a beer?" I thought to ask. He nodded and I went to the fridge. I had a six pack of beer in there. I grabbed two and went back to the couch. I handed one to Morelli and sat back on the couch.

"Any idea on who the mole could be?" Morelli asked taking a swig of his beer.

"I have one idea, but I'll let you know if it pans out," I told him, taking a drink.

"Be careful Cupcake, two guys are already dead," Morelli warned, "and Ranger won't be there to get you out of trouble."

"I know and they have another guy undercover, he could be next," I told him. He nodded.

"I'll make the PD aware of this tomorrow," he told me with a sigh. I nodded. We leaned back and watched the rest of the game. Thankfully the Mets won. Joe finished his beer and stood up.

"I'm sorry about Ranger Cupcake, I know you two were close," he said giving me a hug.

"Thanks Joe, that means a lot," I replied. I returned the hug and let him out. I locked the door behind and went into my bedroom. I didn't see Ranger anywhere. Hmm...that was odd.

"Ranger?" I called. I heard a rustling in my closet and I went to open it. I saw Ranger crouched.

"You're done," he stated.

"Yeah, not like it would take all night," I said in a 'duh' voice.

"I wasn't sure if you guys were going to...resume your...relationship," Ranger said, making me feel guilty.

"Well, just so you know we aren't going to....resume our...relationship," I told him, hoping he'd make a move. He gave a nod and stepped out of the closet.

"Have fun in there?" I asked with a smirk. I saw him narrow his eyes. He took a couple steps and I backed up.

"I'd have rather been on top of you," he said with a smirk. I blushed and was back up against the bed.

"Well, you weren't," I said with a shrug, "you could be." Whoa, did I just say that? Probably I just thought it, probably he didn't hear me. I saw him grin and I gulped. He stepped closer, pushing me down on the bed. He held my head and kissed me. His tongue separated my lips, gaining entrance. His other hand was making it's way up my shirt. I moaned as he undid the clasp and tweaked my nipple. I gasped in delight and arched forward under his touch. All I could do was hold on to his shoulders as he kissed me. I was working on getting his shirt over his head when he grabbed my hands. I looked at him questioningly, his blank mask was down.

"We better get to sleep," he said abruptly. I groaned in frustration and grabbed some jammies. I went into the bathroom and changed. Stupid Ranger. He can't just decide what happens and when. The controlling jerk! Ugh, I was going to show him. Once I was changed and brushed my teeth I went back out to my room. I jerked up the covers angrily and got under. Ranger was on the other side. I was trying to decide how I could get back at him. It was either the cold shoulder or flirt with him. Or maybe I could do both. I felt the bed shift and suddenly I was on his chest, my hands splayed out, his muscles tensed underneath my hands. I let my hands roam, making a trail with my finger. I leaned down and kissed a trail from his chest up to his throat, and finally on the lips, looking in his eyes the whole time. They darkened to almost pitch black. Take that Ranger! I continued on my trail, making my way to his ear, I licked the shell and whispered, "ready to go to sleep?" I smirked and rolled over to my side. He didn't move, he was shocked. Actually I was shocked at myself for doing that. Progress. I fell asleep a little while later. I woke up, like always, to Ranger's warm body. I heard something in the other room, but I figured it was just Rex.

"Babe," Ranger said, a small smile playing on his lips.

"Hmm?" I asked. He just smiled and flipped me over. He gave me a doodah humming kiss.

"Morning Bomber! I hope your up, 'cause I brought-," Lester said cheerfully before he stopped mid sentence. Ranger reacted with super speed and was out of bed in a second. Lester's jaw was hanging open.

"What the hell?" he asked, rubbing his eyes before looking back at Ranger, "someone tell me I'm dreaming or I'm gonna pop him one."

"You're not dreaming," I told him. Ranger turned his eyes towards me and glared. Lester walked towards in him in angry steps. He swung back and Ranger just waited for the blow to come. Lester's fist connected with Ranger's jaw and his head whipped back a little.

"You son of a bitch! What the hell were you thinking when you...?" Lester asked angrily. He turned around, and took a deep breath, calming himself down.

"There's a mole at RangeMan," Ranger told him quickly. Wait, I thought Les was a suspect. Ranger just told him...hmm. Lester turned around quickly.

"What?" he asked, his green eyes flashed furiously, "nobody at RangeMan is capable of it."

"Yeah, then explain to me why one of our men is dead," Ranger said, in a no nonsense tone, aka his normal voice. Lester sighed and ran a hand through his hair.

"Alright, any suspects?" Lester asked, still not looking happy about the whole thing.

"First, let Steph and I get dressed and then we'll talk," Ranger said. I scrambled out of bed got out a pair of jeans and a black T-shirt. I went to the bathroom and got dressed quickly and put my hair in a sloppy ponytail. I walked back out to see Les leaning against the counter with a coffee in his hand. He looked at me.

"Why didn't you tell me?" he asked, the hurt evident in his eyes. I went over and gave him a hug.

"Ranger came to me the morning before you told me he was dead. It killed me, lying to all of you, but he made me promise not to tell anyone. Not even Tank knows. Les, Tony might be next," I said, "I'm so sorry, I didn't want to keep it from you." He rubbed my back.

"It's okay Bomber. I forgive you," he told me with a small smile. Ranger walked in and cleared his throat. Les and I parted and I grabbed the coffee that he brought for me.

"Lester you need to tell us everything you know about the Salvadors," Ranger said, he got the pictures out of the hiding spot and handed them to Lester, "and what was this about?"

"That's Alec Rossini aka Ethan Szchoski. He's undercover for the TPD and I went to meet with him, and let him know we have a guy in there. He is deep undercover, so undercover Astro will never suspect him. I mean he's so deep the guys at RangeMan don't even know he's a cop. I knew him when we were in the army together," Les explained, "as for the Salvadors I don't know much other than they are doing a kiddie porn ring and the cops are trying to take them down."

"Stephanie thought someone was watching her a couple days ago at work, you guys will need to keep an eye out," Ranger warned. We both nodded.

"So why haven't you told Tank? I mean I get it, there's a mole, but it's not Tank," Lester said. Ranger nodded.

"I know, but he's not gonna act like I'm gone if he knows I'm not," Ranger informed us, "the less people who know, the better." Lester nodded in agreement. I rolled my eyes, I for one thought they should tell Tank. Of course, I'd go along with them.

"Well, Bomber and I should be heading out, the guys might get suspicious," Lester said with a wiggle of his eyebrows at me. I giggled.

"Yeah Les, we should. We hitting the Tasty Pastry on the way to the bonds office?" I asked him as I grabbed my gun and purse and headed out the door with him.

"You betcha, we always do," Les said with a grin. We walked out to his car and got in. He started driving, "so Bomber what was going on with you and Bossman this morning?" I blushed and looked out the window.

"Nothing, just a little wake up call," I said with a smile, "he likes messing with my mind."

"Or he loves you, like we tried to tell you the other night. He needs a wake-up call himself," Les told me, looking over with a twinkle in his eye. I narrowed my eyes at him, "what are you thinking Les?"

"Well, you might not like it but, I could help you make Ranger...jealous," Les said with a mischievous smile. I nodded, pretending to think it over. Hell yes! I was going to take Les up on that offer.

"I'm in," I said with a smile. He grinned his blinding smile as we pulled into the Tasty Pastry. He rubbed his hands together.

"This is gonna be gooood!" he said as excited as a kid on Christmas day. I rolled my eyes and opened the door. I walked into the store quickly, Lester on my tail. We went in and order the usual dozen donuts, with a couple of Boston Cremes for me. We got back in the car and I bit into a donut.

"Mmm, these are soooo good. I don't know why you're not allowed sweets at RangeMan," I moaned, savoring the taste of the donut. I saw Lester shift in his seat.

"If you keep making noises like that making Ranger jealous won't be an act," Les said seriously. I gulped and stuffed the rest of the donut in my mouth. Lester shook his head as we pulled into the lot of the bonds office. We got out, bringing the dozen donuts in. I saw Lula get up and say something from the window, I could make out some of the words.

"Connie! Our saviors are here! They brought our donuts!" Lula yelled, a smile on her face. I grinned as we walked in the door.

"White girl, yo' the bestest!" Lula said, squeezing the air out of me.

"No...*puff*...problem...*puff*...need *puff* air!" I wheezed. She quickly let go and grabbed for the donuts.

"I'm worried. I've called Tank four times and he hasn't answered!" Lula, wailed, "these donuts mean the world." She gobbled up two and handed the bag over to Connie.
