Sorry for the long long wait ! I'm truly truly sorry! So here is a long one, hope you like it 3 lots of love, Natalie ..

Previously;

" DID SAM TELL YOU SOMETHING ?!" he yelled out, shocking me. How the hell could he know that? As the words had escaped his mouth his fists tensed and the car raced faster than the speeding limits.

" no.." I lied.

"You are the worse liar ! what did he say, that I slept with his sister?" he said.

"did you ?"

" YES ! After she threw herself at me! I can't believe him, he is my best friend! his sister tried to

seduce me every single family dinner I was invited too and then after maybe 10 times I slept with her since I actually liked her. But after that time she moved on! She found me attractive but that was is! And sure I didn't cry over that but I was her "one night stand" and not the other way around!" he explained.

"oh.." I said ashamed over my accusations.

"But that's all ! And yes, I have had one night stands, not that it is any of your business! And maybe I

didn't call them again, but I can assure you that I didn't break any of those girls hearts since I was their

one night stand too! " he said and took a deep breathe before continuing. "I respect women and I can tell what they want..I'm a agent, I have to know how to read people. All those girls I picked up wanted to be picked up.. And they don't want me to call but I called anyway just to confirm it. And THEY all ended it. Not me. I have nothing to be ashamed of."

"I'm sorry..." I said, turning from him.

"what exactly did he say?" he said calmly now.

"I don't remember..."

" vanessa ! What did he say !?" he said and gave me a glare.

Something in his voice was harsh and I couldn't help it. I felt the sudden need to tell him every single

word that Sam had told me. I feel like I owe him that after my accusations .. So I did.. For every word I could see Zac tighten his grip on the wheel and speeding a bit extra. I tried to tell him I didn't care now that I knew the truth but Zac just shook his head. He refused to listen. He was pissed.

"It doesn't matter! He told you because ..."

"because?" I said .

"That's between him and me" he said.

"Hey ! Don't do that, if it wasn't for me you wouldn't have known that he said anything in the first

place."

" fine. Sam is a agent with wife and family.. He struggles with that everyday and even if he loves his

wife and kids he wishes he never met them since he keeps their lives on hold. His kids don't know the

truth about their father and his wife calls him every night to see if he's alive. The reason he is helping

out with this case is because he is not only my best friend. He is my "tutor" too.. He's the one who's

training me to be a real agent.

"but he's so young.. I mean he is not 40 !" I said shocked.

" no .. it was a teen pregnancy.. and his father was a spy and trained him when he was a kid so he passed all tests pretty fast. I passed my test because I was a little criminal as a child. " he said and chuckled at some memory that popped to his mind.

" bad-ass" I said and giggled.

"anyways.. he really wants me to pass this test so I can be a official agent. Not only because I deserve it, but because he wants me in his team"

" wow.. I thought he hated you …."

"He likes playing tough, I don't take him so seriously." he said and laughed.

"how can you not take that dude seriously?"

"I have my ways to control him." he said with a smirk.

" which is?"

" I have his little's sisters phone nr.. " he said and winked.

" You are terrible ! " I said but laughed.

" not at all … so now you know why he told you.."

"Zac, you never told me.."

"he wants me to succeed and he thinks you are standing in the way for that.." he said simply.

" why ? "

"Do you really have to ask?" he said and raised one eyebrow and looked at me with that controlled and even if he didn't know it he looked more sexy when he tried to be serious.

" I guess not.."

"exactly.. besides , you care for me .. and that is my fault, I shouldn't have made the situation so

personal.." he said, talking like a robot.

"And how do you know I care for you ? What if I'm only attracted to you sexually. That has nothing

to do with emotions.." I gave it a try.

"The fact that you ran up to your room when you thought I was shot says that you care for

me. The thought of you getting shut didn't appear to you at all. how more personal do you want it to get?" he said and chukled.

"I think you know..." I said and tried to look him in the eyes but he just ignored my comment.

" I understand him, but that doesn't mean he has the right to say something like that... he knows it's not true.."

The ride must have been pretty fast because he just pulled up on the driveway. He stepped out and this

time he didn't wait for me, he just walked into the room and down to the basement. As curious and

worried as I am I followed him. I tried to talk to him calmly but he assured me he as only going to "talk". Something made me doubt that. He walked into a big room that we never use anymore but the agents had apparently turned it into a tiny gym. In the middle Sam stood and hit on a boxing bag hanging from the roof.

"EY SAM ! can I have a word with you ?" Zac said aggressively as he walked up to Sam. Sam looked right through him and glared at me.

" you can't keep your mouth shut for long, can you?"

"I want to talk to you" Zac said and grabbed the boxing bag hard so Sam couldn't hit anymore.

" and I want to train. " he answered and nodded towards a squared blue thick carpet. Zac stepped on it and Sam followed.

"so what did you want to talk about" Sam said , while standing in fight position.

"Seriously ?!" I said but no one listened.

"Don't worry, Sam is his tutor, they are just training" Frank said, who had walked up behind me.

"but Zac is angry with Sam, don't you think this can get out of hand?"

" Not really, Sam isn't so happy with Zac either so I think this will get pretty even."

"are you serious? Are you going to let them fight out their anger on each other?" I said shocked.

" yes? What did you think they were going to do ?"

" TALK!"

"yeah right" Frank said and laughed at my ''silly''comment.

I looked at Zac and Sam who both stood in fight positions. And then Sam started. He ran towards Zac like a animal and grabbed him around his waist and threw Zac down on the ground like a little toy, but Zac was prepared. Just before he hit the ground he had somehow wrapped his feet around Sam's body and when Zac touched the ground Sam followed down.

"This is pathetic, you will get hurt" I yelled out

"That's the point! " Frank laughed.

" what did you want to talk about?" Sam said while placing his hands on Zac's throat.

"About what .. you told.. Vanessa!" he said and then got a grip of Sam's little fingers and pulls them out to release him from his grip.

" I didn't have a choice ,man" Sam said and stood up quickly.

"Bullshit!"

Zac attack him by putting on leg behind Sam's and push him hard against his chest with his

straight right arm. Sam fell hard on the ground.

" You know the rules !" he said and pulled in Zac's leg so he lost balance and fell down too.

I couldn't stand to look anymore. Wow, so mature ! They are grown up men and they fight instead of talk? I walked up the stairs and the last thing I heard was a loud bang and frank laughing and said "man ,that hurt !". Charles had gone home to his place and the kids were on the second floor asleep. I walked up the stairs , changed into a big Tshirt and short shorts and walked back down into the kitchen to call Rebecca.

As soon as she gave the phone to Liam a huge smile appeared on my face. He was adorable!

He didn't say much but I enjoyed his little sounds and giggles.

Rebecca told me how they had been in the park and played all day. He had asked for ''mommy'' a few times but he didn't seem sad. Maybe I should be sad that he didn't cry over me, but I was happy. I would hate for this situation to affect him badly. I said goodnight to Liam and Rebecca and just when we hung up the phone Zac and Sam entered the kitchen.

I turned to Zac with wide eyes

"You are bleeding !" I said shocked .

"I am ?" he said confused.

" Yes !" I said and walked to the counter and reached up at the top shelf in the fridge to get some ice.

Sam saw Zac's eyes focus on Vanessa's head.. and back.. and lower..

She was only wearing a big Tshirt and her short shorts underneath left the rest to the imagination. Her clothes were so thin...

"oh for god sake, control it!" Sam said and hit Zac in the back of his head. He just laughed and shook his head when I looked at them like a question mark.

" I'm sorry he got it out of me" I said to Sam.

"I got my revenge" Sam said and nodded towards Zac's bleeding eyebrow." he fights like a girl" he said but continued when I cleared my throat and gave him a unfair look. " well , you don't count. I heard about that stunt you pulled on your ex boyfriend earlier."

"complete defense. " I said , proud of myself.

" actually, I would like you to show me what you did exactly " Sam said and he acted surprisingly interested.

" what?"

" Zac said there was something interesting with the way you did it so I'd like to see it."

"My father was NOT a agent!" I said , frustrated.

" I never said that. I said I found it interesting." Zac said in defence.

"and if you are so sure that he isn't a agent , then I don't see a reason to not show me.." Sam argued.

" fine, "

"Let's go down. "

Sam and Zac walked fast down the stairs ,like exited kids and I followed unsure of what I had just gotten myself into. When we entered the room Sam sat down on a chair close to the carpet just waiting for a ''show'' to take place.

" Okay, stand the exact way you stood with your ex boyfriend." Sam said.

"Okay, a gentleman always asks so .. may I ?" Zac said and as we both took place on the carpet.

"hey, everything to prove a point ,right? I said and put my hands up in the air. He just rolled his eyes and placed his hands on my ass.

"don't turn this into anything it's not " Sam said, firm.

"yes sir.'" Zac said and laughed at Sam.

This was not the first time we stood so close but with his hands on my ass I sort of got the feeling we

broke a few rules, even if Sam thought it was all work. It was kind of awkward to just stand there but thankfully Sam was happy to talk.

"okay Vanessa. I have seen many action movies in my life so don't think you need to do it slow so I

can see. Just do just like you did 3 hours ago. And Zac, don't do anything, pretend you have no Idea.

To make it easier for Zac not to be prepared you can wait to do it until you feel like it, Vanessa."

And I did. I didn't do anything, I just stood there , smirking at him. I've been fighting for Zac to touch me and even if it was on order I still enjoyed it. Or enjoyed might be to strong.. I didn't dislike it , if you know what I mean.

"I know you're taking advantage of the situation, and not that I'm not enjoying this but we can't stand here all night so maybe yo-" he whispered in my ear.

That was my time. I pulled his little fingers hard, forcing his arms away and with her right arm I pulled his elbow towards me and with my left hand I pushed him back , making him fall down on the ground.

Sam laughed and clapped his hands together.

" feel so sorry for Jack..." Sac said and laughed. I reached my hand to him to help him up but when I did he pulled me down fast. He made sure I first fell on him before he pushed me to the ground. All so I wouldn't hurt too much.

" you gotta work on your ego, Zac. you just couldn't be defeated without having to do something. " Sam said and rolled his eyes

"So what, I -" Zac said as he stood up. But he didn't finish the sentence before I kicked him on his knee, making him loose his balance and fall down on his but.

" DAMN , I LIKE HER ! " Sam yelled out.

" You're not so bad yourself." I said and I meant it. Sam wasn't so harsh as he acted.

"Don't change your opinion now but what you just did is to similar to the strategy we teach in FBI

than to be a coincidence.."

" My father wasn't a agent... but maybe a agent taught him what he later taught me..?"

"maybe" Sam said but I could see he didn't believe me.

" did.. uhm, your father learn you something else.." Sam said.

"I have forgotten much of it.. but he taught me how to put a man on the ground by only adjusting

the head. " I said.

Sam nodded towards Zac , just waiting for me to show him how. I smirked at Zac before placing two hands on his head and forced it one one particular direction making him loose balance. Zac fell onhis back and started laughing.

"I just know self defense..." I said and shrugged my shoulders. Zac stood up and grabbed me hard by my wrists.

" how do you get out of this?"

I held my hands together while pulling them up in the air and at the same time taking a big step towards Zac, making it impossible for him to bend his arms in that directing which force him to loose his grip. That made both Sam and Zac laugh exited.

"I have seen enough, you were taught by a agent, like it or not. " Sam said, sure of what he was talking about.

"Unless you can prove with evidence that my father had anything to do with FBI I won't listen to you." I said, just as firm as he.

" I won't bring it up until I have proof" Sam said, clearly taking it like a challenge.

"I'd appreciate that .. and Now i'm going to bed, please don't kill each other."

"After your stunts I'm lucky to be able to stand" Zac said and winked.

"You don't have to mock me !"

"hey, I'm dead serious" he said and smirked.

I pointed 2 fingers on my eyes and then on his , mouthing : I'll keep my eyes on you.

" good night fighter" he said.

I rolled my eyes and left the basement.

"I don't blame you... but as soon as this is over you can meet her all you want... just not

now" Sam said and Zac nodded. " I'm not saying you should ignore what you feel but man, this is your chance ! Love has gotta wait! "

"wait up a sec, I never said I loved her...! " Zac said fast!

" yet... that's why I'm trying to stop you.. don't do anything because the moment you kiss that woman

you WILL fall for her.. so don't!"

With those words Sam left Zac alone in the training room. He didn't love her. He wasn't even sure if they could ever be a thing. All he knew was that she was stuck in his head and when she was around he couldn't keep his eyes away from her. The thought of kissing her was so tempting! But Sam was right, that would be the worst thing he could do.

He stayed in the basement to train for a few minutes but then took a shower and fell asleep with only one thought on his mind.

Would a kiss be worth the trouble it would cause?

Please review, I´d like to know your thoughts (: xoxo N
