CHAPTER 23
FIRST DAYS IN SERBIA
A very observant CIA undercover agent watched as a very tall couple made their way from the entrance of the club to the bar, close to the dance floor. The man was tall, with dark blonde hair and a stubble, tanned skin, broad shoulders, and he was wearing a black henley shirt with dark jeans. The woman was blonde, with sharp features and extremely tanned, and was wearing a cocktail black dress with a deep cleavage, and high heels nude scarpins. She was walking practically glued to the man, who was glancing around, discreetly. The woman kept caressing his arm, but he didn't seem too interested in touching her, or talking to her. They sat on stools at the bar and she crossed her legs facing him, but he didn't notice. He was watching as a young brunette woman, wearing a burgundy dress, very sexy and with a deep cleavage, and burgundy lipstick, walked down the stairs of the VIP area, making her way to the dance floor. She was wearing a silver necklace with rhinestones and multiple loops around her neck, and it made her shine bright in the crowd. And the young woman didn't notice the tall man, or a lot of other men, drooling, because she was focused on another guy, in his thirties, with black hair and tanned skin. He looked extremely wealthy, wearing an expensive blazer, a limited edition rolex, and jeans. He was standing at the stairs of the VIP area, talking to a muscled man, but he instantly noticed the young woman passing by him. She gave him a seductive look, then looked away, smirking, and she walked into the dance floor. The wealthy guy followed her without hesitancy, and the tall man at the bar got up immediately and made his way to the dancefloor, bringing with him the tall blonde woman.
"Havoc, this is One. Passing Bach", the CIA agent heard at the comms. He smirked.
He continued to watch, discreetly, as the wealthy guy came closer to the young brunette and danced behind her, with the tall couple dancing close to them. Dancing, or actually, awkwardly trying to dance, because the tall man wasn't moving much; he was attentively watching the other couple.
The young brunette woman continued to dance and tease the wealthy guy, then she grabbed his hand and made her way out of the dance floor into another area more reserved, and the CIA agent watching all of this finally got up and discreetly made his way and stood near the muscled man that was talking to the wealthy guy before, while the tall couple left the dance floor and discreetly followed the brunette woman and the wealthy guy to the reserved area.
"Havoc, this is Falcon. Passing Mozart".
"We should keep more distance" Jessica whispered to Jason, annoyed, and he knew she was right, so he slowed down his steps. He was relieved when he finally saw Dianna and the HVT talking at the end of the dark corridor, and suddenly the HVT advanced at her, trying to kiss her, and Jason instinctively tried to go to her, but Jessica held him, because there were people around them. Dianna could step to the side and deviate the HVT's advance, and she kicked him in the balls and let him fall near a wall there. Jason was walking towards her and finally reached her. The HVT was leaning on a wall, still felling the kick, when Sonny passed by them and put a muzzle on the HVT, then discreetly they dragged him to a nearby storage room, where they had a passage already open to the outside.
"Havoc, this is One. Passing Beethoven".
"Well, that was easier than I thought" Dianna joyfully said to Sonny, Jason and Jessica, while they shoved the HVT into the dark van. She pulled her dress down to get into the vehicle, and Jason stood right behind her so that nothing too revealing would show to Sonny while she made her way inside the van.
She sat on the seat. "This a very beautiful dress, but it's really uncomfortable" she mentioned to Jessica, sitting next to her, and she nodded, mentioning hers was uncomfortable too, and both of them casually pulled their cleavages up a bit and moved their breasts in the dress, with their hands, while Sonny, Jason and Trent stared at them from the other side of the van. Suddenly, the door of the van opened, and Falcon got inside, and Jason noticed how the faces of Dianna and Jessica lit up and they smiled. Sonny and Trent noticed it too, and the three of them watched, jealous, as the dark haired and green eyed guy sat in the middle of them, joyfully.
"Well, that was easy", Nick, the CIA agent, joyfully said, and the girls quickly told him that's what Dianna had just said.
"You sure the security guy of the HVT isn't suspicious of anything yet?" Jason bitterly asked Nick.
"Nah", Nick dismissed Jason's concerns, with a hand gestured, "I convinced him to take some of the coke from the bartender from the club. I noticed he sells there, so… he must be high by now".
"Are you going to get changed for the interrogation?" Jason was looking at Dianna, from head to toe, lingering on her ass and cleavage. Because she was searching for something in her closet, now barefoot, but still wearing her short burgundy dress. She looked stunning and a bit slutty, which is probably what she intended, with the heavy makeup, deep cleavage and shiny necklace. He noticed she was feeling some pain in her chest and couldn't take the shirt out of the hanger in the closet, so Jason quickly stepped up and went to the closet, getting her the white shirt she chose.
"Thanks" she smiled at him, and he leaned on her closet door, grinning. "You're welcome".
She stood still, and explained, "Yes, I'm changing for the interrogation, as you can see" she raised the shirt and pants she picked up, but he didn't move.
"Would you like some help? Getting changed", he offered, with a gentle smile.
Dianna sighed, looking at Jason's huge and hot frame. It had been five days since she slept with Jason, and since then he was treating her like a gentleman, but very hot and cold, and to be honest, so was she. She heard stories about how he pushed women away all the time, and she also liked her independence, so she kept some distance after they slept together, which was kind of easy because for the last days she barely saw him, he was always on surveillance or following HVTs. And she was fine with that, but sometimes he hovered over her or flirted hard with her, and she liked it, of course, but it was confusing. When she volunteered to be the bait at that op he publicly spoke against it, saying that it was too risky, while it obviously wasn't, and she didn't like him meddling on her things like that. It made her look weak and unable to defend herself. And now he was being quite a flirt again.
So, she was about to say no to his offer, but then she remembered that she really needed help to unzip the dress, because she couldn't raise or move one of her arms, at all, and the dress was so tight that she had to hold the other side while unzipping. Davis, who helped her to zip it up, was very busy at the Command Center upstairs.
"Well, if you really don't mind, I could use your help to unzip it" she said.
Jason swallowed, because he truly thought that Dianna was going to say no to his offer and call Davis or Jessica. But he obviously loved her answer.
"Sure, turn around", he tried to sound casual.
Jason gently put her long hair to the side and unzipped her dress on her back, a little slower than necessary, revealing her light skin underneath.
He felt the urge to graze his fingers there, or better, to lick her skin, but he was restraining himself, as hard as he could, for the last few days, after they had sex again. Amazing sex. He remembered what Davis mentioned to him, that Dianna didn't like to date co-workers because she liked her independence and alone time, and he didn't want to be too clingy. If Jason was honest, he was also very independent and always liked to have time with the guys and to himself, but he knew he'd feel a lot happier if he could add some quality time with Dianna in the mix too. Especially if there was sex involved.
Their arrangement was going quite well for him, because he was out a lot doing surveillance and still he could hang out with Dianna and talk to her without feeling too awkward, but there were a lot of moments, like this, when he just felt the urge to… ravage her.
"Is it open?" Dianna interrupted his indecent thoughts.
"Yes" he joyfully said. "All good", he slightly tapped her shoulder. "What costume are you wearing this time, huh? Russian mob again?" he joked, but he'd really love to see her in that impressive outfit again. And proceed to ravage her after her interrogation.
She turned to her white shirt on her bed, that he had just reached for her. "I'll wear that. My normal clothes" she reminded him.
"Oh. Ok" Jason said, a bit disappointed. Dianna felt very uninteresting all of a sudden.
Jason slowly walked to the door of her bedroom, glancing at Dianna, who was holding her slutty dress in place with her arms over her breasts. A man could hope, so…
"Hey, if you need help putting on your bra, or somethi-"
Dianna shut the door at his face.
Jason watched as Dianna joyfully talked to Nick at the end of the hallway, lingering on the entrance of the dining room. Jason was almost finishing his breakfast and Dianna had just woken up, because apparently the interrogation of the HVT took a lot longer than expected. Which was, like, two and a half hours. For Jason that was nothing, but for Dianna, it was a lot. Jason went to bed before that, because he was very tired and it was late night when they got back from the nightclub, but Dianna, Jessica, Nick and a few of the team guys stayed up until late hours.
Jason noticed, also, that Dianna and Nick were walking and talking before they arrived at the dining room entrance, but he tried not to stare too much at them. And he kept reminding himself that Dianna said to her 'mami' that her type was tall and bearded men. He knew that because he knew some spanish, and Clay helped him translate. Nick didn't have a beard. Although, Jason noticed, he had a slight stubble now. And the guy was really handsome, nobody could deny. Jason was getting grumpier by the minute.
"Good morning" Dianna joyfully greeted Jason, standing still with Nick by her side. Nick nodded at him.
"Hey" Jason said, with a slight smile, trying to sound blasé and distracted. So she wouldn't notice that he was interested in what they were saying. He nodded back at Nick.
Dianna and Nick kept quiet a few seconds, probably thinking if it was ok for them to sit at the table with him.
"Hey, you can sit here if you want. I'm almost finished" Jason offered, and they sat there. Nick slightly pulled the chair for Dianna to sit, and she smiled at his kindness. Jason stared, grumpy.
"How was the interrogation?" Jason said, trying to not sound too interested.
"Was good. Got a lot of intel from the guy. Took a while to crack him" Dianna answered, sounding a bit tired.
"Nah, Dianna did great. You should've watched her, Hayes" Nick joyfully said, kissing her ass.
"Well, I was tired. Maybe it's not as fun for us watching as it is for you guys, in there" Jason grumpily answered.
Another awkward silence between them, and Jason knew he was in a bad mood and he should just leave. "Look, I need to go downstairs to clean the weapons, because probably there's gonna be another op if you really found out something. I'll talk to you later, ok" Jason took his plate and left them, and they both nodded at him.
Since Nick arrived in Serbia, a day after the team's arrival, he quickly became close friend of everyone, except of Jason and Sonny, but his great looks made him very popular with Dianna, Davis and Jessica. Sonny seemed jealous of him because of that too.
So, Jason grumpily went to the bathroom for a quick shower, then after he changed he walked down the stairs to the floor were they kept the gear, uniforms and weapons. Ray, Sonny and Clay were there.
"Hey, you guys woke up early, huh" Jason said, as he got into the room. Besides them and Jason, the rest of Bravo Team was still sleeping, because they went to bed almost at dawn.
While they cleaned the weapons and got their gear organized, they talked about games, beer and finally women in general, at it was almost noon when they got buzzed by Blackburn, to go upstairs and hear the briefing.
Dianna, the people of the CIA and Bravo Team were all in the room, and Davis and Blackburn briefed them, excited. Dianna shyly greeted Jason and sat on a chair beside him, and he nodded at her, stern. Jessica was on his other side.
"So that's it, you guys. Wheels up in one hour. Apparently, it's going to be a quick op" Blackburn ended the brief, and everyone cheered, a lot. Jason thought that maybe they were tired or would want to go to a bar after, and he was thinking that it was a good idea, even though he went to the nightclub just the night before, undercover. He didn't get to drink anything, and maybe a beer would end his grumpiness.
While Jason and the guys geared up, he asked about their plans later that day.
"You guys going out tonight, then?" He asked.
Ray quickly answered "Well, definitely. Wouldn't miss it."
"Yep. I think it'll be great. And the place looks real nice, too" Clay added.
"What's the name of the place?" Jason asked, curious.
"Oh, how was it, Sonny?" Clay didn't remember.
Sonny thought for a second, closing his vest. "Ah man, it's a complicated name. But it's on that street near the nightclub that I went the first day. Easy to find".
"Yeah, we'll go in a group anyways", Clay dismissed, and Jason nodded, because the names of the places there were really difficult to remember. Then Clay thought of something, as he got his weapon. "Hey, but maybe we should tell Davis to call there. She knows the name of the place for sure. To see if they have like a special drink or bonus as a celebration. They usually do. It'd be nice".
"Sure, man, great idea. When we get back remind us to talk to Davis, Jace", Ray said, walking out of the room.
All the guys nodded and got out of the room, with Jason following them, a bit lost. He made his way to the stairs, where Nick, Jessica and Dianna we're wishing them good luck.
Jason looked up and saw Dianna telling everyone that passed by her to be safe and be careful, kind as always, and the guys were joyfully answering her and telling her they'd see each other later, to celebrate. Jessica and Nick were wishing best of luck too. When Jason passed by Dianna he was still a bit lost, but she shyly smiled at him. "Be careful, Jason".
"Yeah. Thanks" he slightly smiled at her, with a lump in his throat.
Because he was finally realizing it was Dianna's birthday.
