Chapter 14. Candy heart.

"Yes, you can ask Sam when she wakes up. I snapped his neck with a karate chop." Alex wasn't happy she had killed. She knew though you don't always have a choice.

"You'll have to take care for his brother Teddy. He will try to revenge Dren. He too was an interrogator for that gang" Terry warned Alex.

"Oh great, just what I need, a mad, torturing, revengeful brother at my heels." Alex whined mockingly,

"Don't underestimate him Alex. He's as dangerous as his brother!" Terry stressed.

Alex duly noted the warning. She looked back at Donna who was still fervently typing away and got up to whisper something in Terry's ear. A bright smile formed on Terry's face. "Of course Alex, that's a wonderful sweet request. You have my full support." She too suddenly started to type.

Donna who had finished her report and come towards them asked, "What is a wonderful sweet request, aunt Theresa?"

Terry looked up at Donna, didn't answer but patted Alex on the back.

Alex went up to Donna, knelt down on one knee and proposed: "Donna Ramone will you marry me?"

Donna stood perplexed. "That ... that's i ... illegal ... I mean yes, YES OF COURSE I WILL, you twit."

With all the commotion none off them had noticed the plane landing nor the large front door open, nor the team that had taken Sammy to the burns unit.

"Congratulations, I'd say" remarked the professor clapping his hands. "Sam is in good care and there is a young man who wishes to speak to you miss Quant."

"In a moment, professor, I have to say something to my niece first."

The professor bowed and walked back to the front of the plane. Donna had taken Alex in a choking hug.

"Donna, be a bit careful with your wife to be!" Terry warned her niece.

"But gay marriages are illegal aunt Theresa! I wish they weren't, but." Donna had a hard time.

"It's not for Alex. She no longer is an American citizen. In her new home country gay marriages are allowed by law." Terry's face was a blank, but Alex couldn't help smiling widely.

"YES!" Donna cried out! "Can I wear the tux?"

"Hold your horses young lady!" Terry cautioned, "Let Alex give you a tour of her country first. I've made the necessary arrangements. Dean come over here!"

Dean came forward carrying a set of car keys. Alex jumped from joy. "My little green rally monster!" she gave Dean a hug, pocketing the keys. "Am I on leave Terry?" She inquired.

"Yes and take Donna with you, she deserves a break as well." Terry smiled.

Donna took her aunt in a hug, "Thanks auntie!"

Donna chased Alex out of the plane. Next to the air stair stood a car, not unlike the Citroen C4, but smaller. The Empire green gave away it was one of Rover's racing models.

"Is that your little green monster?" Donna wondered.

"You bet!" Alex shouted taking the wheel and letting the engine roar. "Let's hit the road!"
