Note: Coarse language in this chapter also and as always I do not own anything but the story. Thank you for your review everyone and thank you Celine for being the co writer you do an awesome job!!

Planning to Act Soon...

Celine found Ryan in the lab in no time. Lucky for her, he was pretty much done work and the night was just starting so there was plenty of time to be together.

"Hey smiley," Ryan said. "How was your big date with Delko?"

"Hey. Jealous?" then she stuck her tongue out at him and giggled.

"You know what I told you about that young lady: stick it back in!" He pushed her nose and stuck her tongue back in her mouth. "I could get the wrong impression," he said grinning.

With that she simply gave him a wild passionate kiss.

"Seriously though, my date with Eric really wasn't that bad, he is a very nice guy. Only he, um… He tried to kiss me once but I backed off so he wouldn't. I told him I was in a relationship with someone and he apologized to me and never tried again. Please don't get mad at him," she said in a hurry.

"He did what to you?" Ryan said loosing his temper.

"You heard me babe. I told him I didn't mind being good friends and beside, I informed him he has a pair of eyes on him. I just don't know if he knew or simply ignored the fact someone is attracted to him."

"You told him that?" Ryan said laughing. "Calleigh would thank you if she'd know or would either yell at you" Ryan said.

"Well Eric told me he knew about how Calleigh feels for him. He just thought my feelings for him were the same he had for me." Celine answered. "I also told him I wouldn't mind going out as friends sometimes or we could even double date. You know, I think it would be fun."

"Well, right now," Ryan wrapped both arms around her waist "I'm done work. We could go for a walk on the beach, who knows what the stars have reserved for us this time?" Ryan asked.

"Sound's good to me, baby." she replied.

Ryan was lost in his thoughts while driving to the beach. Once at the beach, they decided they needed to talk. It hasn't been long since Ryan and Celine were dating, but he wanted to know what she was expecting of him and of life in general. He was crazy about her and was hoping someday he would end up marrying her and have a family. Desiring to live his whole life right by her side.

Life was perfect for the two of them right now and he was wondering if he would ask her to move in with him that night, what would she think or say. Lately, she was never at her place unless she was picking things she needed for the mornings or nights to come.

"What are you thinking about Wolverine?" she asked him trying not to laugh.

"Hey! You know not to call me 'Wolverine' unless...oh never mind." Ryan gave up and grinned.

"Better, because we're past the first date and I am sooooo aloud call you that."

Ryan and Celine were having too much fun talking and laughing to notice they were being followed.

In the meantime...

"Father," Julian said on the phone. "I have a lead on them again but it seems to be a different guy. I'll let you know once I find where they're heading and we can try to catch that bitch. It don't look like we have time for a plan."

"All right son you do that and I'll be on alert for your call. Whatever you do son, do not loose sight of them. We waited long enough; I don't want to loose her again. That fucken bitch is mine and she will pay for what she did," Alistair said.

What is going to happened next? Will Ryan be able to save the love of his life or will the bad guy's catch her before Ryan can do anything? Read the next chapter and you will soon find out. Please read and review.
