Chapter 13
"Would you like to tell me what is bothering you before I go to work, or do you want to wait and talk about it when I get home?" Georgie asked her boyfriend. "Or you could just pretend that nothing is wrong." She said when he didn't answer right away.
"Can you take some time off from work?" Johnny asked putting down his coffee mug.
"Why?" Georgie didn't normally ask questions, but something in Johnny's eyes had her worried. He hadn't ever asked her to leave the hospital for any reason. Even when things were at the most dangerous point earlier in the summer, he hadn't asked her to take time off.
"We found the Text Message Killer, but right now we can't catch him. He's using the tunnels under the city to stay hidden during the day. We've been watching him when he comes up at night, but he's been in areas with foot traffic." Which meant witnesses.
"You know who he is?" Georgie asked surprised.
"Diego." Johnny said his green eyes looking into her brown ones. "He's been watching Robin."
"Robin?" Georgie repeated. "You've been watching him, while he's watching my cousin. You have some sort of plan to keep him from killing her right?" She asked trying not to panic.
"We had a plan in place, but we have to change it." Johnny said slowly. "Last night Diego changed his behavior after he saw you leave Robin's building. He followed your car for a few blocks and then turned off. If you could stay in the Towers then we can lay a trap for him."
Georgie made a face of pure disgust. "I certainly don't want to go down that path again. Diego was crazy back then, and now he sounds a lot worse." She said taking a deep breath. "Let me call Monica. If I lose my spot I'm going to be impossible to live with."
"If you lose your spot, I'll move to wherever you get a new one." Johnny told his girl. "We are not going to let him hurt Robin."
Georgie walked over and cupped his face between her hands. She drew him forward and gave him a soft kiss. "Thank you, for trying to protect her even though you don't like her very much." He hadn't ever said a cross word about her cousin, but Georgie knew his true feelings.
"You're welcome. I'd try to protect Maxie too." Johnny said with a grin. "Does that earn me more boyfriend points?"
"Don't push it. Besides I'm pretty sure Diego is afraid of Maxie." Georgie said letting him pull her close. She could use this hug. "What is your plan?"
"We hopefully have someone coming to town who is your size and build. If Diego is willing to end his stakeout of Robin to follow you, he will probably take the bait of the trap we are laying." Johnny began explaining. "If you get the time off I have something you can do to stay busy."
"What's that?" Georgie could take the time to start working on the paper she was hoping to publish in the spring.
"We're moving." Johnny said grinning. "To penthouse four."
"Diane and Francis are moving out of the building?" Georgie knew that the lawyer loved the Towers.
"No, they are moving to penthouse two. Jason bought a house for him, Liz, and the kids. Diane is spending the next couple of days getting their new place set up since she's back. Once everything is out a crew can come in here and take our things upstairs. You can even invite Maxie over to help." That would keep both Jones sisters in the building.
Georgie just grinned. She saw what the guys were doing. "Let me call Monica. If I can get the time off, then I'll supervise the move. And I'll keep Maxie from staking out a room for herself."
Johnny took a deep breath. "She can just get a unit in the building." Man he really was a great boyfriend.
"No, she can't. We can't live that close together. I was just joking about her staking out a room. I thought my dad was going to kill us both when we lived with him." Georgie said laughing. She missed Mac, it might be time for a visit. She gave Johnny a quick kiss and walked over to the phone. Considering Monica sent Emily out of town, getting that time off shouldn't be hard at all.
"So what are those little yellow things?" Jason asked Liz. They were watching a movie and both the boys were glued to the screen.
"They are minions. They work for Gru he is the one with the Russian accent. Vector is the one in the track suit, he's the bad guy." Liz explained while doing her best not to laugh. Jason was trying to find a logical explanation for the yellow creatures on the television screen. "We have all three movies, and the mini movies, that the minions are in. This is Cameron's favorite."
"Why do some of them only have one eye?" Jason asked his girl. "And what language are they speaking?"
"You're over thinking it." Liz said giving in and letting the laughter come. It was at times like this that his lack of imagination became apparent. "Cameron also likes to watch science shows, you'll probably enjoy those more."
"I'm enjoying this. It just doesn't make a whole lot of sense." Jason said defending his position. "I don't mind watching cartoons with them." He wanted to do all kinds of things with his boys. "Do they watch cartoons on television too?"
"Cameron likes Spongebob Squarepants." Elizabeth was not a fan. But she didn't let the boys watch a lot of television to start with, so the occasionally episode was okay. "You know about Chuggin Charlie. Jake is all about Elmo. He's on Sesame Street."
"The red fuzzy one. Morgan was really into him a few years back." Jason didn't get that show either. However it was at least educational. "Do you think the boys would like to go out to the movies?"
"Jake is too little." Liz said smiling at her boyfriend. "He doesn't always understand the concept of having to be quiet. Also if the movie scares him he starts crying. We could stay here and hang out, and you can take your oldest son out." She knew Cameron would love some one on one time with his dad.
Jason pulled out his phone and looked up movie listings. "What about this?" He pointed to a title. The commercials for the film were in heavy rotation.
"He has been talking about that one." Liz said nodding. "If you guys leave now you can make the next showing."
"What snacks does Cameron like?" Jason wanted to know.
Liz saw her son's dinner being ruined, but she wasn't going to say anything to stop it. One night wouldn't hurt anything. "Popcorn is good. Avoid anything gummy, they are a choking hazard. And a small drink. Lemonade if they have it." It was the best she could do at the movies because soda was not a beverage she let the boys have.
Jason nodded. "Cameron." He called out.
"Yes daddy?" The little boy stopped watching the television.
"Want to go out for a little while? Just you and me?" Jason asked his son. They would take a couple of guards too.
"Just us?" Cameron asked excited. He knew he had to share daddy with Jake, but to go out just them sometimes would be cool.
"Just us." Jason repeated already getting his answer. "Go get your shoes."
"Okay." Cameron didn't even ask where they were going. Honestly he didn't care, he just wanted to spend time with his dad.
"If they have any real food, I'll try to get some into him." Jason said before leaning in and kissing Elizabeth, then Jake. "Don't wait up for us. We have a wild night planned. We won't be home until around seven-thirty."
"That late." Liz said arching a brow. "I guess I'll go out and pick up some sunglasses for the both of you to wear at the breakfast table in the morning."
"Mock us if you want to. We are having a Men's Night Out." Jason was looking forward to the evening. "I'll call before we come back in case you need me to pick anything up. I'll leave Marco here with you and Jake."
"Sure leave me with the troublemaker." The guard said from the table where they were playing cards.
Liz just snorted. "Marco might need backup. Jake full of apple juice is a handful."
"Record it when he takes Marco down." Jason said getting to his feet. "Ready?" He asked his son.
"Yup. Bye mommy, we'll be back later." Cameron said giving her a kiss. "I'll be back Jake, and I'll tell you what me and daddy did."
"Have fun." Liz said picking up Jake and putting him on her hip. She walked her guys to the door, and waved as they got in the car. "What should we do?" She asked her youngest son. "Blocks? Sounds good." She said taking them back into the house.
"Hello Francis." Gina walked into the office and looked around. "You got new furniture. It's stylish. No way did you pick this out."
"Still have the same smart mouth I see." Francis said getting to his feet. The woman standing in front of him was a reminder of how things used to be in Port Charles. Of a time when Sonny was a better man.
"If I ain't broke." She said laughing and taking a seat. If she didn't sit he wouldn't. "When is everyone else getting here?" Just then there was a knock and Johnny walked in with Shawn behind him. "Well hello."
"Gina, it's good to see you." Johnny didn't think she looked a thing like Georgie, but from the back at night it might be a different story.
"The hello was not for you." Gina said standing and holding out her hand. "I'm Gina."
"Shawn Butler." He said taking her in. She was curvy in all the right places. "You're our bait?"
"I most certainly am." Gina had the plan explained to her before she got on the plane. "Imported no less."
"From where?" Shawn wanted to know. He was aware that Francis and Johnny were both watching the conversation.
"Currently Puerto Rico. Ever been?" Gina worked in the executive office of the casino that Jason owned. When VIP guests came in for visits she headed up the team that made sure their visits were perfect. Given the location they had a lot of VIP visitors.
"Nope." Shawn was thinking that might have to change.
"If you two are done." Francis said interrupting them. "We have a plan to put together."
"Is your girl still working?" Gina wanted to know.
"No, her boss gave her time off." Johnny answered since the question was for him.
"You have her secured somewhere?" The petite brunette asked.
"At the Towers." Johnny had just come from his place which was being packed up.
Gina nodded. "Getting in there won't happen. All those guards you have on her are going to be an issue as well. At the same time if you suddenly drop them it will scream trap. So gentlemen what are we going to do? How are we going to get Diego to make a move?"
"I've been thinking on that." Shawn was the one who spoke up. "What if Georgie made a call and set up a meet? What if she contacted Diego and said we were on to him?"
"His ego will see that as her wanting him to stay safe." Gina got where the very fine man standing in front of her was going. "I'm willing to bet he will ask her to meet him during that call." She hadn't ever met Diego but his reputation as an egomaniac was well established. It was a common trait among members of the Alcazar family. In his case he thought every woman wanted him. In the case of his dad and uncle they thought they were invincible. "Can your girl handle that?"
"I think so. Diego was stalking her cousin before he started focusing on Georgie. I doubt he will leave without finishing the work he came to do. My girl will do whatever she has to so that her cousin stays safe." Johnny fixed himself a cup of coffee. "You'll take the meeting?"
"I will. He won't walk away alive?" Gina wasn't going to pull the trigger. That wasn't why she was here.
"No, he won't." Francis confirmed. "Shawn will be there, so will a member of the local police force. You'll need to sell that this was not a preset meetup when you get questioned after the op is completed. Spinelli is going put some text messages on your phone." With her prior connection to Sonny, Gina would fit the profile.
"What is the official reason I came back to Port Charles?" Gina could sell anything they needed her to.
"Visiting friends is always a good thing." Shawn said grinning. It was a simple excuse for a trip, and one that didn't need any physical evidence. "Not to mention that I'm headed down to Puerto Rico and Johnny thought you would be a good contact for me to have."
"O'Brien always was smart like that." Gina wouldn't mind spending time with Shawn. She wasn't worried he was a jerk, Francis would have nipped the flirting in the bud if that was the case. "Where is Jason? I thought he might be at this meeting."
"He is out of town with his girlfriend and their little ones. If you are still here when they return you can meet everyone." Francis told the younger woman.
"We'll see." Gina didn't have anything else planned, so hanging around might be fun. Unless Shawn really did want that tour. "Am I staying at the Towers?" She figured she would be laying low until it was time for action.
"Yeah. Shawn can show you all the new amenities." Johnny said grinning. "And I'll introduce you to my girl."
"Meeting the woman that took you down is why I really came back." Gina said with a wide smile. "I didn't think it could be done."
"Smartass." Johnny said holding the door open so they could leave.
Jason didn't get the point of the movie they went to see. Like the one with the minions the plot simply was not realistic. They had a bad guy attempting to do something that was not possible, wearing an outfit that made no sense, with a sidekick that was an animal that talked. Nope, it didn't make a lick of sense.
However he was still having a great time. Cameron had been talking nonstop on the ride over to the theater. After some deliberation they picked their snacks, and found the perfect seats in the theater. Jason was thrilled when Cameron opted to sit on his lap instead of in the seat next to him. The lights lowered and the little boy laughed through the entire movie. It was a sound that the mob boss simply sat back and enjoyed. Movie night with his son was hopefully going to be a regular thing from this day forward.
"That was fun daddy!" Cameron said holding his dad's hand as they walked out of the movies. "Can we go to a movie when we get home?"
"We sure can." Jason promised his son. "I was thinking that when we get home we can do something every week together. Just you and me."
"That would fun." Cameron said before biting his lower lip. "What about Jake? Mommy said we have to share stuff."
"I will do something just me and Jake too." Jason loved how Cameron looked out for his brother. "Me and mommy can also have some time by ourselves." Date night was going to be a regular thing.
"Can we do stuff all together. Jimmy at school said they have game night at his house. Like when we played Candy Land." Cameron just wanted to spend time together.
"That is the best idea you've had yet." Jason helped his son into the car seat and buckled him in. "When we get home we'll go to the store and pick up more games."
Cameron nodded he couldn't wait to go back home.
Thanks for the reviews!
