SECRET AGENT DAWSON
Chapter Fourteen
Kevin sat all alone, thinking about his wife.
He had gone all through her stuff and come upon some photos. He saw images of
her in a jail cell, posing. He had thought his wife to be perfect, but
apparently not. He wondered about Vincent. How could she be related to him?
Everything just faded away he fell asleep.
*****
“Honey, it’s all right. He will come back to
you.” Vincent sat down, comforting her.
“You don’t know him, Vincent. You didn’t see
the look in his eyes.”
“Go to sleep. Tomorrow is another day.” He
left her and she fell asleep.
*****
Tobey was in the office, developing his film.
He had gotten the shots at Vincent’s hideout.
“Hey, Bill. Look at this.” Tobey walked over
to Bill.
“Hey, what is that?” Bill asked.
“It looks like one of our landmarks,” Tobey
answered.
“Yeah, it does. The Statue of Liberty. What
do you think it means, Tobey?” Bill studied it more.
“I have no idea, Bill. We’d better tell Kevin
and Jack.”
*****
Jack’s phone rang.
“Hello?” he answered.
“Hey, Jack. It’s Tobey. I developed some
shots I got at Vincent’s hideout, and I found something very interesting. Looks
like something is gonna happen in New York City.”
“See you there,” Jack said, and hung up.
*****
Bill called Kevin.
“Hey, Kevin. We’ve got to go to New York.
Something’s up,” Bill said.
“All right. See you tomorrow,” Kevin said,
and went back to sleep.
*****
Bill, Tobey, Ryan, Christian, Kevin, and Jack
got a plane to New York. They went to Liberty Island as soon as they landed
there. They looked around, and saw nothing. They spent a couple of weeks in
surveillance.
*****
Bill picked up his walkie-talkie.
“Tobey, see anything? Over,” Bill said to
him.
“Not yet. Over.” Tobey picked up his
walkie-talkie.
“Keep me posted. Over and out,” Bill said,
watching the island.
Jack watched from afar.
He saw a boat pull up to Liberty Island. He
saw Cassie and Vincent.
“Kevin, you gotta see this!” Jack got his
brother and gave him the binoculars.
“All right.” He saw Cassie in the binoculars.
“What is she doing with him?” he asked.
“He is her brother, you know,” Jack reminded
him.
“I know, Jack, but still…” He was angry, very
angry.
“But still what? Whether you like it or not,
we are related,” Jack informed him.
Kevin hated the thought.
*****
Cassie stayed in New York with Vincent for a
while. She lay down when someone knocked on the door. She opened it, to see
Kevin’s face.
“Kevin?” Cassie hadn't even known that he
knew she was there.
“Cassie, come back home.” Kevin walked in.
“I thought you didn’t want me anymore.”
Cassie sat on the bed.
“I do want you, Cassie baby.” He brought her
to his chest.
“Oh, Kevin.” She hugged him tightly.
He kissed her and led her back to the bed.
Making love with his wife, he faced the fact that Cassie was related to a
mobster, which would make his job very hard, but also very useful.
*****
“Cassie?” Kevin laid there, fully satisfied.
“Yes, Kevin?” Cassie responded.
“I need to talk to your brother. I think we
can help each other,” Kevin said.
“All right.” She picked up the phone and
dialed his number. She waited for his voice.
“Vincent, it’s Kevin. We need to talk. Can
you meet me?” He had pulled the phone away.
“All right. When and where?” Vince asked.
Fifty-Eighth Street. Nine o‘clock AM.” He
hung up and kissed his wife.
The Next Day
“Vincent?” Kevin walked up to him.
“Kevin? I thought we would never meet. Cassie
told me to stay away, and I obeyed her wishes.” He stood before Kevin.
“Vincent, maybe we can help each other,”
Kevin proclaimed.
“I would love to help, but it’s under
national security,” Vincent said.
“I knew it. You’re not a bad guy after all.
You work for us.” Kevin smiled.
“Keep this under wraps. All right?” Vincent
asked him. “Kevin, follow my lead, please.” Vincent had to make a scene if he
was to stay undercover.
He punched Kevin in the face, and Kevin
punched him back.
“Stay away from my sister, Dawson!” Vincent
yelled.
“Like hell I will. You better watch your
back, Tressor.” Kevin walked away.
Vincent was an FBI agent under deep cover. He
had been for many years.
*****
Kevin and Cassie’s marriage went back to the
way it had been. Kevin was glad he had Cassie back.
*****
Kevin called Jen. He loved Jen like a sister.
“Hey, Jen. How's vacation?” he asked
cheerfully.
“Great. Why, Kevin?” Jen had always wondered
how he found out where she was all the time.
“I need you, Jen,” Kevin said.
“All right. I will be back at work on
Monday.” Jen had been happy to relax in the golden sun of Hawaii.
“Great.” Kevin needed Jen’s ability to master
the written script of a note he had found years before.
“Bye. Bye,” Jen said.
