Discalmer: I don't own the characters. NBC does. I do,
however, own Simone. I created her.

The Centre:
Blue Cove, Delaware

Miss Parker walked into Sydney's office. "Have you heard from
Simone?" she ashed.

"No, are you getting worried?" Sydney asked back.

"No, I just figured she would be back by now.” Parker
replied. She was hoping Jarod got far away before Simone
could find him.

Jarod’s apartment:
Colorado

Jarod runs into his apartment to pick up some things before
leaving town. When he enters the door, he finds Chance
sitting on the couch watching TV. “Hey, what are you doing
here?”

“I was waiting on you.” Chance replied. “I wanted to make
sure you were okay.”

“I’m fine. I thought you didn’t like this show.” Jarod
answered. He looks out the window. He knows he doesn’t have
much time. “Will you do me a favor?”

“Sure, Jarod.” Chance answered. “And by the way, you got me
hooked on this show.”

“I need to hide some things. Will you keep them for me? Don’t
let anyone know you have them. I will back to get them
sometime soon.”

“Sure, are you in trouble?” Chance asked as he watched Jarod
pace.

“No, I just can’t take them with me right now. What do you
say, will you keep them?”

“Yes, I will keep them for you.”

“Thanks.” Jarod replied.

“Where are you going and when will you be back?”

“I don’t know.” Jarod answered hoping Chance would keep his
word.

Jarod hands him a silver suitcase and some drawing. “Now,
don’t forget. No one must know about this.”

“Yeah, yeah. I won’t tell anyone.”

Jarod looks out the window again and walks out the apartment.
He doesn’t see a sign of anyone from the Centre. He goes and
gets into a Chevy Z71 pickup. Before he can start the truck,
a red headed woman walks up and says, “Jarod, it is nice to
finally meet you.”

He looks up and says, “Simone, I thought you have left town.”

“No, but your precious Miss Parker has. You are coming back
with me.” she said as she opened the truck door and pulled
him out.

“What makes you think that?” he asked while pulling away from
her.

She hands him some handcuffs and says, “You will go back with
me.”

Jarod puts the cuffs on and gets in the car with Simone. The
whole way back to Blue Cove he is thinking how he can escape.
He stares out the window and watches the highway pass him by.

The Centre:
Blue Cove, Delaware

Miss Parker, Sydney, and Broots are in the control tower.
Sydney and Miss Parker are looking over some papers when
Broots says, “Miss Parker!”

“Not now, Broots!” she responded not looking up.

“But I think you will want to see this.” he grabs her arm.
Parker turns around to see what Broots is talking about.
“Damm it!” she yells.

Sydney turns to the security camera and see Simone bring
Jarod in the front doors.

“How did she find him?” Sydney asked.

“I don’t know but I am going to find out.” Parker said
angerly as she walked out. Broots and Sydney quickly followed
her.

**********

Parker meets Simone in Raines’ office. “Where did you find
Jarod?” Parker asked pissed.

“In Colorado. Where you should have find him?” Simone replied
back with a smirk.

“Good job, Simone. I knew you could bring him in. If you
don’t mind I need to talk to Miss Parker. Alone!” Raines
replied.

Everyone leaves his office but Parker. “Miss Parker, you have
been after Jarod for two years now and haven’t brought him
in. Simone has been after him for a week and has. You are no
longer a sweeper. You have just been knock back down to
cleaner. Do you understand?”

"Fully! But my father won’t like this.” she said and stomped
off.

**********

She meets Sydney and Broots in the hallway. “Well, what did
he say?” Broots asked.

“I am now a cleaner.” she replied and stomped to her office.

**********

She walks in her office and Simone is sitting behind her
desk. “Excuse me, that is my chair you are in.”

“Not anymore.” Simone answered sarcastically.

Parker looked around and her some of her stuff was put in a
box. “This is not over.” Parker replied as picked up the box
and heads to Sydney’s office.

***********

“Can I leave my stuff in here?” she asked.

“Yes, but what happen to your office.”

“Simone, has it. Syd, I have to get rid for her.” Parker
replied as she paced. She lit up a cigarette and inhaled it
slowly trying to calm her nerves.

“I am sure you will come up with something.” Sydney answered
as he watched her pace. “Will you sit down? You are making me
nervous.”

The phone rings. Sydney answers it. “Yes, I understand.” Then
he hung up the phone.

“What was that about?” Parker asked.

“That was Raines. Broots and I work with Simone now.” he
replied. He knew she was going to hit the roof now.

“I WILL get her!” Parker said hasty and stomped off.

Broots walks in and Parker pushes him out of the way. “What
is with her?” Broots asked.

“We now work with Simone.” Sydney replied.

“Great.” Broots answered depressed. He knew his life was
going to be hell working with those two.

**********

Miss Parker is in the control tower looking at Jarod in his
room. Jarod is pacing back and forth trying to figure a way
out. He has his hands on his head like he is thinking. Simone
walks in. Jarod sit down in a chair and watching her every
move. Simone walks over to him. She looks him over and says,
“You weren’t that hard to catch. Tell me you must be smarter
than Miss Parker.”

“Why is that?” Jarod asked confused.

“In order for you to escape or maybe she just lets you go so,
she will have something to do.”

Parker listening to Simone slams her fist down on the desk
and says, “How dare she say that?”

“She has never let me go.” Jarod answered knowing that wasn’t
true but didn’t want to get her in trouble either.

Parker replies to herself, ‘You tell her Jarod.’ She knew the
truth but was pretending to ignore it.

Simone says, “Really.” She puts her hand on Jarod’s shoulder
and moves it down his chest. “You must work out.” she replies
while feeling his muscles.

Jarod feeling uncomfortable says, “Do you mind? I don’t like
to be touched.”

“Oh, really.” she says again. She straddles Jarod’s lap and
looks him in the eye. “You are really cute.” she responded
and bends down like she is going to kiss him and smiles.

Miss Parker watching this from the camera makes a fist and
hits the table again. She gets up from the chair and stomps
down to Jarod’s room. Jarod pulls away from Simone. Parker
barges in his room and says, “Mr. Raines wants to see you.”

“It can wait.” Simone replies back.

“No, it can’t!” Parker yells at her. Jarod could see the
jealous and anger in her eyes.

Simone gets up from Jarod’s lap and says, “I guess we will
have to finish this later.” and walks out.

Jarod gets up from the chair and walks over to Miss Parker.
She says, "I didn’t know she was staying.”

“I know.” Jarod says softly. “I can see your jealous of her.”
he said as he walked around Parker.

“I’m not jealous.” she replied back as he stop in front of
her.

He pushes her against the wall and whispers, “Don’t fight it.
I know you want me.”

Parker replies, “You think very highly of yourself. Don’t
you?”

“Come on, Miss Parker. I can see it in your eyes. You want
me.” he replied back to her. He reaches over and tries to
give her a kiss.

She pushes him back. She wants to fight it but is scared she
will give in. “You don’t know what you are saying.”

“I can see it in your eyes.” he puts his hands on her face
and gives her a kiss.

“No,” she says. Then, she pushes him on the bed. She looks at
him on the bed and straddles him. She and whispers, “Is this
what you want?”

She puts her lips on his and kisses him hard. He reaches for
her and she pulls away. ‘The camera’ she thinks. She gets up
and walks toward the door.

Sydney walks into the control tower looking for Miss Parker.
He can’t find her but sees her in Jarod’s room. Broots walks
in and says, “Raines has an experience to try on Jarod and he
is on his way down there now.”

Sydney says, “Miss Parker.” and runs out toward Jarod’s room.

“What” Broots says and follows. He loses Sydney when Simone
catches his eye. Sydney walks toward Jarod’s room and runs into Miss Parker.
“Raines is on his way down here.”

“We have to get Jarod out of here.” Parker replies softly to
Syd.

They walk back toward his room and no Jarod. “Are we too
late?” Parker asked.

“I don’t know.” Sydney replies.

They hear Raines coming so, they hide down a hall way. “Where
is he?” Raines asked Sam.

“I don’t see him.” Sam replies.

“Find him!” Raines yelled.

Parker said, “The tape. I have to get the tape.” She takes
off to find Broots.

“What tape?” Sydney asked as Miss Parker takes off.

Broots is walking down the hall. “Have you seen Sydney?”

“Never mind Sydney. I need you to get the security tape of
Jarod’s room.” she tells Broots, “and don’t let anyone see
you or the tape.”

“Okay,” Broots replied scared he might be caught. He was also
scared to say no Miss Parker. He knew what would happen to
him if he didn’t do what she asked.

**********

Broots returned to Parker’s office later. “I can’t find it.”

“What do you mean you can’t find it?”

“I mean I can’t find it. It has disappeared.”

“How can a security tape disappear?”

“I guess the same way Jarod did.” Broots replied.

“Keep looking. It has to be here.”

“Okay, but I don’t think it will do to keep looking.” he
mumbled has he walked out.

Miss Parker's House:
Blue Cove, Delaware

Parker arrived at home. She couldn’t do anything but think
about the tape. ‘Raines can’t see that tape.’ she thought as
she walked in the door. She walks in her bedroom and turns on
the light. Jarod is sitting on her bed.

“What took you so long?” he asked.

“Jarod, what are you doing here?” she asked. “There could be
a sweeper team outside my house now.”

“No, I already checked.”

“You didn’t answer me. What are you doing here?”

“I came to finish what we started before you ran out.”

“What are you talking about?” Parker asked.

“Don’t tell me you forgot.” He walked up to her. He grabbed
her and kissed her. “That is what I am talking about.”

“We can’t. You know that.”

“Yes, we can. I know you are attracted to me and I feel the
same.” He backed her up against the wall. He began to kiss
her neck. She couldn’t fight him off or at least didn’t want
to. He was right. She pushed him backed. He fell on the bed.
She climbed up on his lap and said, “Are you sure this is
what you want?”

“Yes, and you do to.” He kissed her lips. She penned him down
on the bed and kissed his top lip then his bottom one. Her
tongue licked his top lip before entering his mouth. He
rolled her over and faced her. Then he slowly got up. He
reached his hands into her blouse. Then, moved them down. He
unbuttoned her pants and pulled them off. He moved back up
her leg with his tongue. He paused at her thigh and kissed
her. Then, slowly moved back onto her. She gave him a kiss
and moved her tongue down his neck. She ran it over his
nipple and then her teeth went over his nipple. Her hands ran
down his chest and to his waist. His jeans were slowly
unbuttoned and her hands slipped down into them. His jeans
were slowly pushed off of him. He pushed her back down on the
bed and unhooked her bra with his teeth. His tongue ran over
her breast and began to suck softly. Then she whispered,
“Don’t tease me.”

He looked up into her eyes and pressed his hard body onto
hers. They bodies were like a perfect fit. They were lost in
each others arms.

**********

The next morning, Parker woke to Jarod laying across her
stomach. She got up slowly from the bed, trying not to wake
him. She went to den and lit a cigarette. She inhale fast but
exhaled it slowly. She couldn’t get last night out of her
mind. Jarod woke up to find her gone. He got up and walked in
the den. He put his arms around her. She didn’t want him to
let go but she knew last night shouldn’t have happened.
“Jarod,” she says softly.

“Yes,” he replied.

“You have to go.”

“Quit pushing me away. I’m not going anywhere until we
discuss this.”

He turned her around to face him. Just when he was about to
say something there was a knock on her door.

“Who can this be?” she thought.

Jarod ran to the back of the house, hoping not to be seen.

**********

Parker went to the door. She looked out. “Great” she said as
she unlocked the door.

“Daddy, what are you doing here?” she said as she opened the
door.

“Hello, Angel. I just stopped by to tell you that you are a
sweeper again.”

“What?” she asked him.

“It turns out Simone is responsible for Jarod’s
disappearance.”

“Really.” she said with excitement, hoping to rid of her once
and for all.

“Yeah, are you not feeling well?” he said as he noticed her
bedroom.

“Why?”

“Well, you are still in your robe at this hour. Your bedroom
is a mess. You should clean it more often.”

“Is there anything else you want or can I get back to bed
now.”

“Oh, no. I’m sorry. I just thought you would like to know. I
hope get to feeling better.”

“Yeah, thanks.” she replied as she rolled her eyes. She shut
the door in his face.

**********

Jarod comes out from the other room. “How did your really
escape?” she asked.

“The same way I always do.” he answered. “Now, can we get
back to bed.” he replied as he gave her a kiss.

“I’m going back to bed. You are leaving.” she replied
sternly. Then picked up the phone and called Sydney.

**********

“This is Sydney.”

“Syd, I’m not coming into work today.”

“Are you okay?”

“Yeah, I’m just not feeling well. I will be back tomorrow.”

“Okay, I will talk to you then.” He hung up the phone.

**********

Jarod walked over to Parker gave her a kiss and said, “I
can’t leave now. If someone sees me leave your house, you
will have alot of explaining to do.”

She knew he was right. “Fine. You can stay but what happened
last night can’t happen again. Do you understand?”

“Perfectly.” he replied with a smile.

She runs some hot bath water in the tub. She gets in to soak
in the bubbles. Jarod walks in. “What are you doing here?”
she asked him.

“Taking a bath.” he replied. Then he climbed in the tub with
her.

“I don’t think so.” she quickly responded. “Get out!”

“I’m not going anywhere.” he replied as he looked her
straight in the eye. Then he touched her leg with his hand.
He ran it up her leg and to her thigh. He moved closer to
her. She couldn’t push him away. She hasn’t felt this way
toward any man before and she liked it. She moved her leg
over to where Jarod sat directly in front of her. She kissed
him. He pushed back against the tub and responded, “Let me
give you a bath.” Then, kissed her lip.

**********

After the bath, they got carried away with each other like
they did the night before. It wasn’t long until it was dark.

Jarod replied, “I guess I better go now. You don’t have to
kick me out again.”

She replied, “Stay.”

Jarod stayed most of the night but headed out before
daylight. She woke up to the alarm and Jarod gone. He left
behind a note that read...

She got ready and headed to work.

The Centre:
Blue Cove, Delaware

Sydney walked into her office. “Are you feeling better?”

“Yes, I am. I think a day in bed is just what I needed.”
she responded.

Broots can in and said, “Miss Parker, I found the tape.”

“Good job, Broots.”

He puts the tape in the recorder. “I think you will like
this.” he responded.

“I can watch it later, Broots.” she quickly responded. She
didn’t want anyone to see what happened in Jarod’s room.

“It’s okay. I have already seen it.”

Broots hits the play button. The tape starts. They all watch
as Simone walks into Jarod’s room. She talks with him and
walks out, slipping him a key. Then it shows Jarod unlocking
the door and running down the hall. They turn it off when it
shows Raines entering the room.

She is thinking to herself, ‘This is the wrong tape. I wonder
what really happened to the real tape.’

“I guess this means Simone is out of here.” Broots replied.

“Yes,” Parker answered happily.

“I will talk to you later.” Sydney replied. “I have some
things to finish.”

“Sure.” Parker replied as she wondered what really happened
to that tape.

**********

Simone walks in the office and finds Miss Parker sitting at
the desk smoking a cigarette. She is listening to an Elton
John song...

“What are you doing at my desk?” Simone asked.

“It’s not your desk anymore. I guess you haven’t heard you
are going back to Arizona.” Miss Parker replied as she puffed
on her cigarette.

Simone looked over to a box with her stuff in it. “You know
that is a perfect song for you.” she said as she picked up
the box.

“I know.” Parker answered and turned the chair around for
Simone to leave.

Jarod’s apartment:
New Orleans, LA

Jarod walks in his new apartment. He opens a package that is
addressed to him. He pulls out a DSA disk. He opens the
silver suitcase and plays the disk. He watches the disk of
him at the Centre. As he watches, he remembers the conversion
he had with Simone and Miss Parker. He gets out his phone and
starts dialing.

“What” Parker answers on the other end.

“Do you like creole cooking?” he asked her.

“I don’t think I have ever tried it.”

“Well, you should. You might like it.” he responded. Then
hung up the phone.

The Centre:
Blue Cove, Delaware

Parker finds Sydney. “Hey, I’m not feeling well. I am going
to call it a day. I will see you on Monday.”

“Okay, I hope you get to feeling better soon.”

She walks out of the Centre and doesn’t look back.

Jarod’s apartment:
New Orleans, LA

Jarod walks in. He turns on the light, to find a gun pointed
at him.

“I see you found me.”

“Yeah, but I’m not here to bring you back.” she replied as
she sat her gun down on the table. She walked over to him and
gave him a kiss.

“Good.” he replied back. He returned the kiss. He picked her
up and carried her to the bed.

“I missed you.” she responded.

“I missed you too.” he whispered.

He kissed her on the neck and down her chest. She wrapped her
arms around his neck, trying not to let him go. He pulled
back and turned the lights down low. Then he walked back to
her. She grabbed his hands and put hers in his, pulled him
down on top of her. She missed his body on hers that she held
him close. With his arms wrapped around her shoulders, he
unbuttoned the buttons on her blouse. She moaned with every
little touch he made. They rolled around on the bed with
their bodies locked, not letting go of each other. After a
while he rolled off of her with exhaustion, he held her tight
in his arms. He kissed her hand and she looked up at him. He
said, “Are you hungry? I know a great place to eat.”

She answered, “Maybe later. I not hungry for food just you.”

“Oh, really.” he answered. “I bet I can fill your hunger.” he
replied with a smile.

She rolled over on top of Jarod and kissed him.

**********

The next day, they woke in each others arms. He took her to
the French quarters. They walked in a restaurant hand in
hand. He ordered for them. They couldn’t keep their eyes off
of each other. When the food got there, he said, “Here try
this. You will love it.”

She looked down at the plate and said, “What is it?”

“Crawfish.”

“No way, I’m I eating that.”

“Come on, try it.” he lifted the fork to her mouth. She open
her mouth and he fed her. Then he kissed her lips.

“I’ve had better.”

“You have ate it before?” he asked with confusion.

“No, not crawfish!” she replied with a smile.

After they ate, they walked around. He showed her some sites.
They went back to his place. After keeping a low profile, she
left Jarod’s bed wearing his T shirt. She noticed a sliver
suitcase laying in the floor.

Jarod watching her said, “Go ahead. Play it.”

She pushed play and saw her and Jarod at the Centre kissing.
“Where did you get this disk?” she asked. She knew it was the
disk she was looking for.

“I don’t know. I got it in the mail.” he answered but figured
Angelo had something to do with it. He walked over to her and
kissed the back of her neck and whispered, “Let’s go back to
bed.”

She got up from the chair and lead him back to bed. He put
his arms around her and didn’t let go.

She stayed the whole weekend with him before returning home.
He made sure she got on her way safely. They kissed each
other bye. She hated to leave him and he didn’t want her to
leave.

The Centre:
Blue Cove, Delaware

Sydney can hear the her coming up the hall way. She enters
his office and sits down in the chair in front of his desk.

“I see you are feeling better.”

“Yes, I am. I never knew getting away from this place would
make a difference even if it is staying in bed.”

Broots walks in. “Hey, your back.”

“Yes, Let’s get to work.”

She went back to her office to get some files. She picked up
an envelope to find a drawing of her naked in it. “Jarod” she
responded with a smile.
