She stretched out as she yawned, waking up at her early hour, and opened her eyes to let the light drift in. She sat up suddenly as she realised she was not at home and that she was in a hotel room; it only took a second to remember she was in Florida and was now Leilah Kalish from Netanya, Israel. Thoughts of last night flooded in as she realised she was no longer on the couch, but in her king sized bed on the other side of the room. She could have sworn that Tony was with her last night and that she fell asleep on the couch, but it seemed that it was all a dream. She stretched her arms up above her intertwining her fingers together above her head as she pushed her palms upwards to the roof. She felt refreshed as she looked out the window to the ocean, yes definitely in Florida. She pulled her legs out from under the covers and placed her tippie-toes on the cold floorboards as she surveyed the room and her eyes fell on an item on the coffee table which told all. She ran across the room on her toes and picked up the empty cup that had dried chocolate foam around the inside and looked next to it to see another. It wasn't a dream, he was actually there. Her first thought was how did she get from the couch to the bed and felt the colour rush to her cheeks as she realised he must have carried her.

She decided to order breakfast as she picked up the phone and ordered eggs benedick with a large coffee, just what she needed. They told her that it would be up in about fifteen minutes and decided that it would be a good time to have a shower as she walked into the bathroom. She stopped when she saw a piece of paper stuck to the mirror and smiled as she recognised Tony's shocking hand writing. She pulled the piece of paper from the mirror and began to read the scraggily note.

Hey, thanks for the company last night. You fell asleep pretty much straight away but it was good just to be out of the safe house. Hope to see you soon, maybe an extra shot of chocolate this time?

Tony

It was short but it brightened her mood for the day after her previously anxious one about enduring a date with their suspect again tonight, not looking forward to it. She just wanted him to make a move and catch the evidence so it would be over, but that didn't seem to be happening anytime soon. She again looked out to the sunlight reflecting off the clear blue water and decided that instead of having a shower she would have a run to clear her head. She walked out into the main area grabbing the phone and cancelling her breakfast before walking over to the wardrobe and seeing what she might be able to wear. Abby had been very selective with her clothes which were all tight fitting and showed as much skin as possible; not her normal attire. She settled on a pair of black tights and a tight fitting red tank top before throwing on her runners and tying her hair up in a high ponytail, keen for her run.

The cool wind on her face as she ran was refreshing as she savoured every moment of the deserted beach and sunlight. It was way too early for anyone else to be out and she couldn't be happier; she was enjoying the solitude. She smiled to herself as the ocean spray from the crashing waves came across her face and cooled her body after now running for 20 minutes; although she didn't feel tired at all but more and more alive as she went. She was enjoying the scenery of the beach much more than busy DC and the peace and quiet helped her sort out the thoughts in her head and clear her mind. She thought about the unexpected kiss from Adam as she freaked out and tried to pull away, the one thought that had been troubling her; why did she have such a problem kissing him back? Infact if he wasn't one of their suspects and potentially a serial killer she might of even enjoyed kissing him back; but as he leant forward, a hand placed on her right cheek and came down hard on her lips, something ticked in the back of her brain and she almost felt what?.. Guilty? No not guilty but… I can't even explain it to myself! As she thought about this somebody else came to mind, a man she had known for six years, her partner… Tony. She realised her sudden state of euphoria as she saw him waiting at her door, and wondered how one man can cause such feelings in her. Infact no other man has and she would normally dismiss such feelings, but when Tony was around it was impossible, her heart increased just that tiny bit when seeing him last night and she hoped that she would see him again soon, as he had said in the note she found this morning.

He watched from a distance as she jogged up the white sandy beach, her hair flowing behind her as the wind picks it up. He smiles sadistically as he thought of what he has in store for her. He feels a connection to her that he has never felt with any of his other victims and he is wondering whether to deviate from the M.O and spare her life. He feels she is something special, but he can't think why and he wonders whether to keep her instead of kill her. Oh well, I will see how I feel later. He again smiled to himself maliciously before turning away out of sight.

She was about to turn around for the run back to her hotel when she heard heavy breathing and the squelching of footsteps behind her in the sand. Subconsciously she sped up into almost a sprint as she powered down the beach but she could hear the footsteps behind her getting faster and closer. She was not the one to panic but under the conditions and the fact she was undercover as bait to almost be another victim of the infamous serial killer, she ran faster trying to think of her next move. She decided that the best thing to do was to let the person catch up or run past her because if she tried anything, she would blow her cover. So she started to slow down and before she knew it the man was jogging beside her and to her partial relief, it was someone she knew.

"Wow, thought I was never going to catch up for a second there." He smiled down at her flashing his brilliant teeth as she continued to power ahead not meeting his eyes.

"I like to run fast, it is more enjoyable."

"What, you don't like to take in the scenery?"

"No, I do not run for that purpose." She then looked up to meet his bright blue eyes which were quite the contrast to his tanned skin. He just continued to look down at her with a charming smile which started to make her a bit uncomfortable. "Why are you here Ryan?" She said sounding almost annoyed.

"I am out for a run, like you." His eyebrows peaked in confusion as to her annoyed tone and choice of question.

"Well I was about to head back."

"Same, I have been out for a while." She looked him up and down, it hardly looked like he had been running for 5 minutes let alone 'a while'. She gave him a wry smile before looping around and running in the opposite direction with him not far behind. When he caught up again he tried to start a conversation as she looked dead ahead not lifting her eyes to him once. "Maybe we should use the opportunity to go over today's plan." She finally lifted her eyes to him taking a deep breath and nodded with a small smile.

"Well, I am having dinner with Adam tonight at 1930 in the main restaurant, so you might want to talk to the manager about being on a shift there tonight. I will then go back to his apartment and try a snoop around a bit." His smile faded a little as he looked away from her.

"Are you going to sl…"

"No", she cut him off not even wanting to think of it herself. She would have to find a way to get him out of his own apartment with herself still inside so she could have a look around. She was hoping that she didn't have to take things too far and doubted that she even could after last night. Just don't blow your cover. She really was quite annoyed that Ryan had shown up, solitude no more. She was enjoying the peace and quiet and every time they finally ran in silence he would start a new topic, so she decided to pick up her pace hoping he would fall behind. Unfortunately the universe didn't favour her today as he seemed to be unphased by the increase in speed, staying very close next to her. The only good thing that came out of it was that by the end they were both too tired to talk so silence again returned and the only noises she could hear were the crashing of the waves and their heavy breathing.
