Chapter 30. The heart is a sleeping beauty.

In the doorway stood Mandy, The Professor and The Shrink.

"Clover will be here soon," Mandy informed walking in, "She's dealing with Daniel to keep waiting for us. This was the greatest trip from Paris to Brussels ever. I bet she's trying to get him as her personal driver!"

Clover stormed in the room. "When is the wedding Alex? Hey Sam, David, Donna, Professor, whoever. Have you thought of the wedding dresses, will you have a white bridal bouquet?" If Alex hadn't stopped her rattling, Clover would have gone on no end.

"How did you know I'm getting married? Only Terry, Donna and the professor knew! Where did you hear it?" Alex asked in a grim mood. As she was asleep she didn't know Donna told David, who in turn told The Shrink and Sam.

Clover and Mandy blushed a deep red and looked in each other eyes. "It's simple Alex, we monitor Terry's notes on her computer. We suspect her to keep things secret for us." Mandy admitted.

"You two stop that immediately!" Everybody looked at the holograph of a furious Terry. Clover and Mandy wanted to disappear at once. "This is outrageous. A breech of privacy unheard off. I see you're back with us Samantha and Alexandra. I'm very grateful that the professor was able to wake you."

"I'm sorry miss Quant, it was The Shrinks idea that worked. I had run out off options."

"Oh, in that case congratulations doctor DuBois." Terry corrected.

"Thank you miss Quant." Albert answered.

"Now for the serious stuff, Clover, Mandy I'm afraid your information came too late, our bird had flown. We have informed the FBI, Inter- and Europol and they'll contact us as soon as they have any information. Teddy is still on the run too. We did get information that he cleared his 'secret' account. I've briefed Brittney too, you better join her she's in charge off Teddy's pursuit. That's all for now ladies and gentlemen. Clover and Amanda you stop that monitoring now and forever!" Terry signed off.

Clover was cursing under her breath. Why couldn't she shut up. Now she had to shut down on all that hot gossiping news. She suddenly felt an arm around her shoulder. She looked into the beautiful purple eyes of her loved one, and the world was at peace once more. She walked towards Alex and Donna. "Sorry I should have waited till you told me yourselves, but it's such great news and we didn't know zilch." Clover was her boisterous self again.

Alex smiled at her friend. "It's OK Clover. We are BGFF after all. I'm just glad I'm back in time to catch the bad guys."

"Whoa, little missus, you not catching any bad guys." Donna said, "You'll see to it you get better!"

"Donna, I've been asleep for I don't know how long, so I'm perfectly awake now and there's nothing else wrong with me. You saw less sleep, so I should send you to bed!" Alex countered.

"She's got a point Donna." The professor said, the shrink nodding in agreement.

"Nah," Alex exclaimed, " let's get going. Get me some clothes and we're off to Brittney."

"Hey, you better wait for me too!" Sam shouted, "I'm not staying in bed for a few burns when you all are having fun catching the bad guys!"
