Chapter 5

I hope you all are enjoying this.

Rick and Lisa pull out of the shopping mall with no more incidents from anyone. The crowd is more interested in Minmie then the 2 RDF officers that have numerous times saved them from attacks but Rick and Lisa know that they are not celebrity types but it would be nice for some of the people to remember who saved them. Not just Minmie it was a team effort.

Lisa – Rick are you sure you want to go to the hospital today? Jean said any time you wanted to come by.

Rick – Lisa I just want to make sure that I have not got anything really messed up. I don't like helpless.

Lisa – okay I get you to see Doctor Grant.

Lisa and Rick drive back to the Hospital area. As they go by the new homes that are being built Rick gets a smile on his face because it looked like a gated community with military guards.

Rick – I hope that is our new living quarters.

Lisa – Um I think it was supposed to be only married or couples.

Rick – oh boy looks like I don't get to move.

Lisa – I thought Admiral said you would?

Rick – yes admiral Gloval said I would get to move most likely because of my rank. I am not married yet. But I hope it comes along. Hey the salesperson called us the Hunters.

As Rick said the Hunters Lisa slammed on the brakes of the car causing the car to skid to a stop near the grass.

Rick – Whoa, easy Lisa.

Lisa – Easy, So you heard the sales people also?

Rick – yes I heard them. And I think Admiral sees we like each other and is hoping we get together.

As Rick and Lisa talk they both do not see the police pulling in behind them. Soon a officer is standing beside both the driver and passage window. Soon the officer is tapping on the driver side window.

Policewomen – Excuse me Ms.? What happen back there? And can I see you license and registration.

Lisa pulls out her license then gets the registration and insurance for the vehicle. Also she does not notice that neither insurance nor registrations are in her name.

Lisa – Well here you officer, I don't know officer.

Policewomen – Excuse Me, Ms Hayes but neither insurance nor the registrations are in your name. I am going to have to call Mr. Richard Hunter to confirm it is ok.

Lisa –yes you may, he is right here officer.

Policewomen – sir may I see some form of identification I see your military pass so your military id will be ok.

Rick – Sure officer

Rick takes out his identification and hand is to Lisa. Who interns hands it to the Policewomen.

Policeman – Officer you know who we got here right now I recognize both of them.

Policewomen – not right now, Okay Mr. Hunter, Now Ms. Hayes you still have not told me why you hit your brakes hard back there.

Lisa – Umm, Officer I cannot give you a good reason.

Rick – excuse me officer I can tell you why she braked hard.

Policewomen – Okay lets here it.

As Rick begins to talk you can hear the officers radio and explaining the Lisa Hayes had not prior record and was Captain of the RDF stationed at New Macross. Plus said something about Rick Hunter but the message did not come all the way through.

Rick – The reason why Ms Hayes, Lisa braked hard is because she did not hear me ask her to marry me back at the Mall. So back at that home complex area I asked again. So I guess it frightened her actually it caught her by surprise I think.

Policewomen – well you military people have a funny sense of humor.

Rick – I am sorry for the trouble.

Policewomen – Well no one was hurt, and I hope you got the answer you wanted.

Rick – Not yet? I think she want to think about it. May we go I am late for a Doctor's appointment?

Policewomen – yes sir you may. And Ms. Hayes I hope you think hard about what you heard today and think about the answer your going to give this man. Because his heart is in your hands, have a nice day.

Lisa – yes Officer thank you.

The police officer gives the licenses, registration and insurance back to Lisa.

Soon Lisa is pulling away and looking in the review mirror at the officer.

Policewomen – alright Harry spill it.

Policeman Harry – Well Lana that was Captain Hayes, Commander Hunter both are highly decorated officers of the SDF 1, why I know this is that I was police officer on the SDF when they had the Macross City inside the SDF.

Policewomen Lana – well I am glad I did not give her a ticket. Chief would be mad at me to give either of them a ticket.

Policeman Harry – well if Hunter is lying to us but I don't think he did. He might have been lying about asking her back there but I bet he is going to ask here soon enough.

Policewomen – okay I believe you.

Both the police personnel walk back to the patrol vehicle. They both get and head in a different direction that Rick and Lisa.

Meanwhile Rick and Lisa get to the hospital with time to spare.

Nurse Grace- Good evening Captain Hayes, and Commander Hunter, Oh I sorry Sir, I should have remembered it is Captain now. I am truly sorry.

Rick – that is okay I believe I have an appointment to see Doctor Grant.

Nurse Grace – Yes Sir will you please go over this form, if it needs updated please make changes.

Rick takes the clip board with the sheet that is clipped to it. As he looks over it he sees that he needs to update it. Because for one it shows him living on the SDF address and emergency contact as Minmie , he quickly starts to make changes to the form. He soon hears Lisa asking him something.

Lisa – Need any help Rick, dear.

As Rick looks at Lisa he notices she has a smile on her face.

Rick – I guess I cannot write very well since I cannot move my shoulder. If you do not mind changing the information I would appreciate it.

As Rick finish Lisa takes the pen and the clip board from Rick. They both soon hear someone talking so they both look up.

Doctor Grant – Ah the Hunters did make it. How do you feel Captain Hunter?

Rick – Hello Doc Grant I feel ok just cannot write very good.

Doctor Grant – Well we should be able to fix it better. I got the help of another Doctor also. So finish that form and we will see if we can fix you up. You still might have to stay off flying for a week but you should be back to your old self. Lisa you okay? You look like you are in a daze?

Lisa – Oh umm Yeah I am fine, thanks for asking, Rick is still worried about that.

Rick – Yeah thank again for seeing me today.

Doctor Grant – not a problem, like I said I was going to be here anyway checking on other patients, so finish the form and we see about getting you fixed up.

As Doctor Grant leave the area. Rick looks over at Lisa to see where she is at with the form, also to see if Lisa needs any information from Rick.

Rick – Lisa may I be any assistance?

Lisa – Well I got everything changed except notification?

Rick – Put you or Roy. I prefer you, I hope you okay with that?

Lisa – Umm yeah I will be fine with it; I am just still thinking what the 2 police officer said to me.

Nurse Grace – Lisa did you get stopped by the police?

Lisa – yes I did if it was not for Rick I might have got a ticket.

Nurse Grace – Well you are going to have to thank him.

Lisa – Well I will in my own time. I got the form finished.

Nurse Grace – good thank you.

Lisa takes the clip board back to the Nurse. Rick is sitting waiting patiently for the Doctor to call him in and hopefully they will not take very long to check him out.

Lisa – you want me to hold your jacket.

Nurse Grace – Rick Hunter the doctor will see you now. And Mrs. Hunter you can go back also.

Rick and Lisa get up and walk through the door. Lisa is still looks mad because everyone calling her Mrs. Hunter. She has not said yes to the proposal. Which she thinks it is funny she knows Rick probably has a better proposal than what he already done. She knows it is going to take him a little bit longer to get around to asking her. But also she wants him to think it about it what he is getting himself into, marriage.

Nurse Grace – Here you are the exam room. Take a sit, one of the doctors will be with you all shortly.

Rick and Lisa sit in the examining room.

Rick – you can have the chair Lisa, I will sit on the examining table. You mad at me?

Lisa - thanks I will tell you after we get out of here, okay

Rick- Okay, well all I can say is I am sorry.

As Rick tries to apologize to Lisa, the Doctor walks into the examining room.

Doctor Jean- Hello Rick and Lisa,

Rick – Hello Doctor Grant

Lisa – Hello Doctor Grant

Doctor Grant – Well Rick let us see how bad the damages are to your shoulder.

Rick – Good I want to know how bad it is.

Doctor Grant- okay let us take a few x rays on your shoulder.

Rick and Doctor Grant leave to the x ray room. After they leave Lisa is the only person left in the examining room. Soon she hears a phone ringing.

Lisa – that must be Rick's cell phone.

Lisa finds the phone and picks it up.

Lisa – good even Lisa Hayes, Rick is seeing the doctor how may I help you?

Fokker – Hi Lisa, This is Roy, good to hear that he is seeing the doctor. You all still coming to the dinner tonight, because Claudia told me to call and remind Rick about it.

Lisa – Yeah I believe we are still coming he did remind me about it.

Fokker – Good because I need to talk to both of you.

Lisa – what wrong Roy?
Fokker – I have heard rumors that Rick is thinking about getting out of the military. But I have also heard he has thought of marring Minmie.

Lisa – Actually Rick signed his reenlistment papers and got his promotion I thought. And He told me he is not going to marry her, and I really believe Rick. Where did you hear or see that?

Fokker – Claudia heard it from the Trio. And she told me so I am trying to calm her down.

Lisa – Well I will call her after I get off with you.

Fokker – thank you Lisa

After Lisa gets off the phone she puts the phone in her coat pocket then she gets her cell phone out of her purse. She then dials Claudia cell phone not remembering she is on duty for half the day.

Claudia – Hi Lisa, How are you?

Lisa – Well I am doing okay. I just called to about what you where hearing about Rick and Minmie.

Claudia – Well the Trios was eating at the French Restaurant and they heard some people talking about Minmie and Rick.

Lisa – Really what did they hear now?

Claudia – Well they heard Rick has asked Minmie to marry him.

Lisa – When was this?

Claudia – Umm Wednesday, I believe. Why?

Lisa – Remember Rick got hurt Friday, By Miss Singing Star.

Claudia – The trio is getting slow, I need to have a talk with them. Yeah the trio did say they seen her today?

Lisa – Yes we saw Minmie at the Mall,

(Flash Back 1)

Rick and Lisa walk out to the car.

But soon both of them see a limo pulling into the Mall Parking lot and headed towards them.

Rick – okay who is this?
Lisa - I have no idea.

As they look at the Limo the window near them slowly starts to come down to show was the passage of the limo.

Rick – Minmie?

As Rick said her name Lisa quickly got nerves about her surroundings. And hoping Rick does not make a fool of himself. But she was going to watch and see what happens. Lisa stands looking as saying to herself (please Rick don't get in the car with her).

Minmie – Oh look at the Hunters. Out shopping today I see well I have a new record and poster that are coming out. Rick if you want either or both I can get you one of each.

Rick – Um No thank you I can get my own if I want any. And what do you need?
Minmie- Well I am sorry for what I did. Do you forgive me?

Rick – No I don't forgive you right now.

Lisa quickly sees that Rick don't really want anything from Ms Singing star.

Rick – Minmie if you will excuse us I have to go to the hospital and get rechecked out for my shoulder. You know the one you help hurt.

As soon as Rick finished saying that the Limo window quickly rolled up and the Limo left to go toward the mall.

(Flash back end)

Lisa – Well I know that Rick signed his reenlistment paper Friday and he told me he has no plans to marry her. I think he is thinking about marring me. And I am actually excited about that but also scared if he is just toying with my emotions.

Claudia – you are kidding me.

Lisa – Nope I think Rick has decided.

Claudia – Or has he just given up.

Lisa – Well that I am going to ask him also. So don't worry and we plan to be at the dinner also lets plan for all us having dinner out some time?

Claudia – That will be fine. I, Roy, you, Rick, Max and Miriya okay because I have not seen them in a while.

Lisa – that will be fine.

Claudia – Well I got to get back to work. Be careful and tell Rick hello.

Lisa – I will we should be done here in a few.

As Lisa hangs up she think she hears the doctor and Rick coming back. Lisa puts her cell phone back into her purse.

Doctor Jean – Well did you have a nice wait?

Lisa – Not really is everything going to be okay?

Doctor Jean - Well I tell you when he gets in here.

Rick – Okay Doctor what does the x- ray says.

Doctor Jean – Well your shoulder is okay except it is still not total back in place. So I got another doctor coming right now. Rick takes a seat on the examining table.

As Rick takes a seat, another Doctor walks into the room

Doctor Jean – Oh Doctor Norris how are you here is our patient, that I need your help with.

Doctor Norris – Hello Mr. Hunter, I am Doctor Norris, I am giving doctor Grant help since both civilians and military personnel come here. Now let us see if we can get your shoulder back working properly. I take a look at the x rays. Hmm

Rick – Hmm What?

Doctor Norris – Looks Like you shoulder is still out of place. I believe your right Jean.

Grant – Thanks Doctor Norris.

Doctor Norris- Well Mr. Hunter Let us see if we can get your shoulder back into so that you can enjoy your wife and you're down time.

Rick – That will be great Doctor.

Doctor Norris – Okay lay on your stomach please.

Rick lies down on the examining table and the doctor looks at the screen with the x ray.

Doctor Norris – Okay Mr. Hunter I want you to relax please.

Rick – Okay

As Rick starts to relax Lisa watches on to what is about to happen to Rick.

Doctor Norris – Okay I am going to start.

As the doctor starts working Rick's back and shoulder area the next thing Lisa hears is Rick stream.

Lisa – Rick are you okay?

Rick –Hmm

Doctor Norris – he is going to be fine Mrs. Hunter I am going to work down his back and then I will be done.

Lisa watches as the Doctor work Ricks shoulder and back area. As she watches see know Rick is in some pain also.

Lisa – Doctor please help him I cannot see him in pain.

Doctor Norris – He will be fine.

Soon the Doctor is all done and Rick is sitting back up.

Doctor Norris – I am not going to give you a prescription but if the pain is still in your shoulder come by and we can recheck it. The medics did a good job but it still was not in place. This happens most of the time. Take good hot showers, you can take aspirin, or Tylenol for the pain or any fever and use this cream to help the soreness.

Rick – thanks doctor

Doctor Norris – any for our military.

Lisa – Yes thank you.

Lisa and Rick leave the exam room and head towards the front desk. Lisa is still has Rick's jacket in hand. They finally get to the nurse station to see if Rick owes any fees for the visit.

Rick – excuse me Nurse Grace Do I owe anything for the visit?

Nurse Grace – Let me check.

The Nurse leaves the station to check the chart. Rick looks to Lisa and steps closer to talk to her.

Rick – Can I have my coat?

Lisa – Oh I sorry

Lisa hands the jacket back to Rick which has everything that he had in his pockets.

Rick quickly puts the jacket on and puts everything back in his pocket.

Nurse Grace – No Mr. Hunter you do not owe in thing for the visit.

Rick – okay good then Lisa and I can get going.

Nurse Grace – you all have a nice relaxing day.

Lisa and Rick – Thank you,

Rick and Lisa walk out the entrance of the Hospital. They both walk to the car and Lisa goes to the driver side.

Lisa – You want me to still drive?

Rick – yes please. Let take this clothes home and wrap the gift for Claudia and Roy. What you think?

Lisa – Sounds okay we can drop cloths off I think I might have some wrapping paper also.

Rick – well we need to get going I guess.

Rick and Lisa get in and take off. As they head towards Lisa house Rick looking out at the Hangers. He is looking to see what is going on at the Base.

Lisa – Rick you will be back flying soon.

Rick – that's not what is on my mind. This problem with Minmie hitting me may cause security to be tightened up. Which I figured it was coming. Just wish she would have been more reasonable.

Lisa – Well she is free white female. She made the choice to hit you. Now she needs to learn from it.

Rick – Thanks I think it will pass.

Rick and Lisa make it to her house. And Exit the vehicle. Lisa walks back to trunk and opens it and retrieves all the clothes that where bought while they were shopping.

Rick – Let get you clothes in side and you can change after that we can go back my place I can change while I am doing that you can start wrapping the gift. How does that sound?

Lisa – Well sounds okay you did more thinking coming here than you let on.

Lisa unlocks the door and soon both walk in. Rick sets down on the recliner.

Rick – I wait for you.

Lisa – I will be a few,

As Lisa closes the door she starts thinking what do I want to where, everyone always sees me in uniform, She quickly looks at each of the new cloths that where bought.

Lisa – Hmm the Red knee high number.

Rick is still sitting waiting.

Rick – Well this is how is going to be, I need to get use to it.

After a While, the door to Lisa bedroom opens.

Lisa – Well shall we go to the party?

Rick –(gulp) WOW, Lisa that really looks good yeah whenever you are ready.

Lisa – We better get going we are going to be late.

Rick – Okay.

Rick and Lisa starts to walk out the door.

Rick – Um you might want this jacket.

Lisa – Ooops Yeah it is cold out.

Rick and Lisa walk out the door. Lisa turns to lock the door. She quickly walks to the car and gets in again in the driver set. As she pulls out she can see her neighbors talking about what they just seen.

Lisa – Well Looks like I am on the block gossip now.

They (Rick and Lisa) quickly drive through the neighborhood. Finally they arrive at Rick's house.
