Phone Call

Nate can't help but laugh as he shakes his head. They actually did it. He was surprised thinking it was really a lost cause but they had gotten it done. Turning to Laura in the window he gives a thumbs up before turning back to Garret.

   "You are very welcome. I enjoyed having you help me, and it seems like you were the right man for the job. I guess next time...."

  "Nate....You fixed it!"

Having his words cut off Nate turns and smiles big as his sister comes down the steps and wraps her arms around him. Returning the hug Nate just soaked it up while he could. It had been a few days since he had seen Maggie. He'd worked late and she had been in bed before him, and than he was up before her. It was rough not seeing her, but it made days like this even better.

   "Hey Hey...can you believe it? We actually did get it working right. I'm pretty surprised."

Giving a laugh Maggie nods before glancing at Nate and than back to Nate. Pulling him down closer she leans in and whispers in his ear. 

Nate can't help the shocked look on his face before his cheeks turned a little red.

   "Well...I'm not into judging guys but...he's not really that bad looking is he?!"

Standing again Nate lays his arm over his sister shoulder and turns to Garret. His eyes twinkled with pride proving the love he had for her. She meant everything to him.  She was one the best thing in his life.

   "Garret, I'd like you to meet my older sister Maggie. Maggie, this is Garret."

Maggie gives a wave as her cheeks turn red a little bit. Turning slightly she burys her face into Nate and than peeks one eye out at him.

 Leaning against the wall Victoria was very careful to make sure no one saw her as she listened into her Grandfathers meeting. She'd been walking by after getting back from her latest mission when she had noticed something was going on and being slightly irratated that she was not in on it she couldn't help but stop and listen.

Jason...Jason...Victoria tried hard to put faces to names she had seen with her brief time with the Elite. She couldn't remember Jason interrogating her, but she remembered passing an office that had his name on it and glancing inside before being pushed along. He wasn't bad looking, seemed nice, and he seemed pretty chatty with the red head that had come with them to the botched exchange of Susanne. If she remembered right her name was Katie.

Not wanting to stay an longer for fear of getting  caught Victoria makes her way to her room quickly. Sitting down she just sits there for a moment. Something inside her twisted as she played over and over again what was going to happen to Jason. Why did it bother her so? It really shouldn't and yet it did.

Pulling out the burner phone that Nate had given her and his number Victoria just looked at the numbers for a long moment. Standing and going into the bathroom She new inside that would be one safe place she could talk. She had to warn them...if for nothing else than for Garret.

Laughing again and shaking his head Nate couldn't help but laugh at his sister. He thought it was cute she had a mini crush on Garret. Feeling the phone on his hip vibrate Nate grabs it and takes a look at the number. Not knowing it Nate was hesitant but answered it anyways. It could be anyone and he just didn't know the number.

   "Hello?"

   "Nate...its Victoria...do you have a second to talk? I have some information."

Nate couldn't help his look of surprise as he looked up at Garret. He hadn't expected Victoria to call so soon if at all. He wondered what kind of information she had for him.

   "Yeah I can give me a second."

Putting the phone down he looks to his sister and smiles, and than looks to Garret.

   "I have to take this. I'll be right back. Make yourself comfortable."

Disappearing around the side of the house out of ear shot Nate continues his call knowing if anything it wouldn't last to long.

   "Ok, what do you got for me?"

Pulling up to the dinner Scarlet parked her bike and took her helmet off. Scanning the parking lot she smiles a little when seeing Eli's bike. She might had been upset with him, but she sure had missed him while she was away. The limited texting only added to that.

Entering the dinner it didn't take her long to see Eli and give a wave coming over to the table and sitting down. He was a sight for sore eyes for sure. She also wanted to know how Ryan was. She'd been pretty worried about her.

  "Hey! Hows it going? How is everything with Ryan?"
