UnderCover Wedding
Chapter Thirteen
The next morning Rick woke up to the sound of Kate throwing up in the bathroom. He got up, threw some clothes on & went to see if she was ok. He then grabbed some paper towels & a hairclip to pin up Kate's hair. About between 10/20 minutes later Kate was done & wiping her mouth.
"Thank you." Said Kate.
Rick answered, "No problem. It's the least I could do. Are you hungry or thirsty? What else do you need me to do?"
"Just being here with me is enough. But I think I could go for some dry toast & decaf tea." Kate said.
Rick said, "Ok I'll go downstairs & get that started. Why don't you go back to bed & I'll bring it in here." Kissing her forehead.
"Ok." Said Kate.
Two hours later…
Rick & Kate were sitting in bed throwing ideas around about the case.
"We're missing something? There has to be another person in between the actor & minister besides the supposed guy who visited the church?" said Kate.
Rick said, "I know. Who's the person that assigned the case anyway?"
Kate said, "I don't know? I'll have to talk to Montgomery."
"Do you think he knows more than he's letting on or maybe it's someone else in the Precinct?" Rick asked.
Kate answered, "I don't know. It's possible. But somebody isn't being very truthful about it. They're hiding something from us. Almost as if it was planned this way to happen."
"I know what you mean. Even Ryan, Esposito & Lanie seem off with this case." Rick said.
Kate said, "Exactly. I think I'll call Roy now instead of at the 12th. Something tells me I better do that."
Twenty minutes later…
Kate got off the phone & sighed.
"Well that was interesting. Roy just told me that it was the Mayor who assigned the case. Something about not trusting anyone else to handle it. He doesn't know any more than that. He said he's looking for the actor who was hired, but the acting company hasn't heard from him for a while." Said Kate.
Rick said, "That doesn't make sense? Now it really sounds like we've been setup. Everyone was placing bets against us."
"I know. I think you're right about that. I think I have a plan that might work to find out." Said Kate.
"Really? And what is going on in that beautiful head of yours?" Rick asked.
Kate said, "Ok. How about we take that honeymoon that everyone's talking about that we didn't take? Maybe we can flush them out that way? My plan is to hopefully have Alexis help here while we're away."
"I'm hooked. Continue." Said Rick.
Kate said, "Ok if we have Alexis sort of investigate the 12th, she could say it's for a school project or something."
"Oooh…I'm liking this. I think she will too." Said Rick.
"Kate said, "Are you sure you want to get her involve?"
"She's already involve just by knowing the whole case." Rick said.
Kate said, "Ok. We'll talk to her later about it."
Rick & Kate talked about where to go on their honeymoon. They picked a bed & breakfast in California. Later on they talked to Alexis & Martha. They both agreed to help while they were away.
After everyone went to bed, Rick & Kate were still awake & talking about their plans. They kissed each other good night & went to sleep.
