Chapter Five.
Alison had finished up with her hair and make up on the night of her first date with Wild Bill. She pulled on her boots then double checked herself in the mirror just as the doorbell to her apartment rang. She smiled at herself in the mirror then went over and opened her door.
There stood Wild Bill dressed up in his finest cowboy attire and looking hot. “Well, I’ll be a steer in rut; you are a pretty filly, Miss Alison.”
Alison couldn’t help but to giggle, already she liking him. “Thank you, Wild Bill.”
“Here’s something for you,” Wild Bill said, producing a bouquet of yellow roses.
“Oh, they are lovely. Come in, I’ll put them in some water before we go,” Alison stated, as she took the roses from him and invited him into her apartment, while she went to get a vase for the roses, he checked out her place. The first thing he did was check the windows to see no sign of Flint as he was back at base busy with paper work from both Duke and Beachhead to do, a chore that both men wanted him to do so he would be too busy to bother Lady Jaye and Wild Bill on their first date. “Nice place you got here, Alison.”
“Oh it is really nice, especially when you want to get away from someone,” Alison stated.
“Like Flint’s constant hanging around you,” Wild Bill said.
“Yes.” Alison walked out of the kitchen with a vase and the yellow roses in it.
He smiled as he looked at her, offered her his arm and spoke. “Are you ready to go, Alison?”
“Yes, I’m ready to go,” Alison grabbed her purse and locked up the apartment as they headed for Wild Bill’s jeep.
Alison smiled as he opened the door for her. She climbed in and watched him walk around the jeep. He was so sweet, Flint wouldn’t do that unless it at a fancy restaurant they were dining at which most of the time she would be paying for the dinner. “So where are we heading, Wild Bill?”
"Caniglia's," Wild Bill said and started driving. He graced her with a bright smile. They made small talk on the way there.
When they got there, Wild Bill went around and opened her door and gave her his hand to help her out of the jeep before they headed into the restaurant arm in arm. The country music came from the restaurant as they entered. Wild Bill loved it as he took note of the dance floor before he headed to the waitress who was sitting people, he told her his name and it was a party of two, non smoking. She told him it would be a moment. He thanked her and walked back over to Lady Jaye and smiled, as they chatted about the new restaurant in town.
Soon the waitress came over and took them to their seats, in the corner. It was romantic. Wild Bill pulled her chair out for her then pushed it back in once she sat down. Then, he sat down in his chair as the waitress handed them their menu and told them that their server will be with them shortly.
The busboy dressed in cowboy attire came to their table with couple of waters with lemon hanging off the side, smiled and left to clean off another table.
They checked the menu to see what they were going to be ordering. They looked at the appetizers and saw Chicken wings in hot sauce, mild or hot. Restaurant specialty.
“Think we should order the Chicken wings, Wild Bill?” asked Alison.
“Sure, but what should we go for? Hot or mild?” asked Wild Bill.
“Hot, after all this is chicken wings, we’re talking about. They can’t be mild, that’s for wimps.” Alison replied.
Their server came by and asked them what they wanted for dinner.
“We decided on our appetizer first. We want an order of chicken wings hot,” Wild Bill said, politely.
“Very well, sir. I’ll get them in. It will take fifteen minutes before they arrive.” The waitress said, as she wrote it down and headed off to put their order in.
They made small talk while they waited for the hot wings to arrive. When they did arrive, they tried them and found it was nice and spicy, not too hot for them to handle without dipping into the cooling sauce of blue cheese dressing or ranch dressing. They were smiling and just chattering away as they ate.
The waitress came by after they were done eating the chicken wings and asked, “Now what can I get you for your main meal?”
“I will have the ten ounce KC strip medium rare, please. And for my side, I will have a baked potato with sour cream and butter please.” Alison stated.
“And I’ll have the same, please,” Wild Bill replied, looking at the waitress before handing her the menu.
The waitress took the menus and went off to place their order. A nice slow song came on and several couples were dancing on the dance floor.
"Care to dance pretty lady?" Wild Bill asked with a grin.
"I'd love too."
He smiled as he stood up with his hand extended. They went onto the dance floor and took notice that the dancers were doing the Texas two step, which Wild Bill immediately took to as did Alison. Wild Bill smiled huge as he danced around the floor with her matching his pace with ease.
“So where did a city slicker like yourself, know how to do the Texas two step?” Wild Bill asked.
“So why did a cowboy like yourself, Wild Bill, join the armed forces?” Alison replied.
Wild Bill chuckled heartedly as he sped up the dancing to see how she handled the speed but she moved along nicely.
"I love to dance." Jaye said. Flint hated to dance and would never dance with her. She felt at ease with Wild Bill right from the start.
“Flint never took you dancing before?” asked Wild Bill.
Alison shook her head. “He never did like to dance at all. He would refuse if I even asked and had to sit there watching others dance while he sat there frowning.”
“I’m sorry that you had to sit out like that, I think you are a real good dancer,” Wild Bill said.
“Thanks,” Alison replied, as they continued the Texas two step till they noticed that the waitress arriving with their salad at their table.
They went back to their table and began to eat their salad. Alison was having a good time, she didn't have listen to him only talk about himself and she liked that. She was actually having a fun time with him much more then she ever did with Flint.
"I've got to warn you." Jaye said. "My father is coming to town next week for my birthday and he's insisting on meeting you."
“Well, I’ll be interested in meeting him as well. Since he has such a lovely filly for a daughter, he is probably very proud of you,” Wild Bill said, looking at her as her cheeks blushed at the compliment he paid her.
“Oh you have no idea how proud he is of me now.” Alison stated.
“Did he call you?”
“After I dumped Dash the first time about, told daddy about how he cheated on me and that it was with another woman, I bawled my eyes out to daddy. He wanted to come right then and there to chew him out and to comfort me but I told him don’t I have done it to him already and I was thinking about getting a place off the base to get away from him,”
“Thus the apartment in town which he probably sent you the money to buy,”
“Actually, that was bought by my own money. The housing market is in a huge slump and to buy something in town would be a steal and it was. I didn’t have to go over a hundred and fifteen thousand to buy it. The bank wanted it sold fast and they didn’t care how low they had to go to get rid of the three room apartment.” Lady Jaye said.
“I knew there was a housing slump but that is cheap for what that apartment could have gone for in the past.” Wild Bill replied.
“True, I would still be looking for a good home that was close to the base and yet close to town too. With the economy dropping like it is, people losing their jobs and people not getting enough money out of their paychecks for living expenses . . . one of the things that will be dropped by the home owner is the mortgage and the banks have to take the house and evict the residents from their home. It is really hard on the middle class people as they have to fight so hard to even keep a roof over their heads let alone feed their family.”
Wild Bill shook his head. “And plus the companies are outsourcing their factories out of the country to get those tax breaks, if the government would give tax breaks to those people who keep their companies here in the states that would keep the jobs with those people who deserve to keep their jobs.”
“Amen, Wild Bill. Hopefully, the next president will do that.” Alison stated.
“Who ever it is, I do hope that they give tax breaks to the companies who keep their factories here in the states not outsourcing them to other countries.” Wild Bill replied.
“And make those people who outsource their factories to other countries get higher taxes instead. It would give them more of a reason to remain here in the states, don’t you think?” asked Alison.
“That would be great if they did that,” spoke their waitress, as she placed down her tray with their dinner on it. “My older brother lost his job because the factory was moving to another country instead of remaining here, just because of the tax breaks they get for moving the factory out of the country. It is like this country doesn’t care about the workers who work on the items that we use all the time. My brother just to make what he used to make at the factory each day, he has to go to two jobs, two jobs to make the same amount of money that the factory did!”
“Is he handling it okay?” asked Alison.
“He barely has time to sleep at night anymore. He gets home from his second job at 1am, takes him about an hour to get off of that rush before he can sleep, he has to get up by 5am to get to work by 6am. That’s a three hour night. At the factory, he would be home by 11pm at night after getting there by 9am,” She said.
“What about the weekends?” asked Wild Bill.
“Don’t even think about it, he works all weekend too from 9am to 1am. I am thankful that this place pays what it does and I don’t have any mortgage or other mouths to feed beyond my own and that of my car. I am saving every single penny from my check as possible.” She said, as she picked up their salad plates and placed their steaks in front of them. “I am hoping for a good president who sees what is happening to this country and reverses it before the country really collapses onto itself, which it could do.”
Jaye watched her leave. "I've never had to worry about money." She said guiltily.
“I have, most of my life, Alison. I’m not a very wealthy man, moderately middle class but not in the rich range like you or some of the other people in the world. I always keep an eye on my check book.” Wild Bill admitted.
"I come from money Bill. My family comes from a long line of millionaires. If that bothers you, we don't have to go any further. I can't help what I was born into."
“Oh, it is not that. I am quite pleased in dating you. You are not at all snobbish like most wealthy people are; you are down to earth, kind and someone I would love to date.” Wild Bill said.
Jaye smiled. "My father raised me to be this way. He saw how the other millionaires were allowing their children to become snobbish and stuck ups, he didn’t want his children to act that way at all. He wanted children who could respect everyone whether or not they were millionaires or not."
“Good, my mom and dad taught me how to respect everyone as well. But I think Dash’s parents didn’t teach him what we all know, how to respect others and how to stay with one woman instead of dating many women when you have a woman already as your girlfriend,” Wild Bill replied. “He’s a stuck up bastard, who has no respect for his girlfriend to remain loyal to her.”
“He never treated me like I was anything special. When we would go out to dinner, it was he who was the subject of the conversation, he would ask me how my day was and just as I was about to tell him, he’s like that’s nice dear, and go into what his day was like and then, keep the topic of conversation on him. When it came time to pay for dinner, guess who paid?” asked Alison, as she cut into the last piece of the steak.
“He did?” Wild Bill looked at her, as he finished his potato, his steak already finished.
“Not even once. It was all me, I would pay for every meal we did. He never did, not once during all the times we dated, he never paid. It was always me who would pay the bill. Even if he had did the date, I would end up paying for the dinner all the time and he would never repay me for it, as he probably figured that I wouldn’t mind. But I did mind.” Alison replied.
“That jerk, I would have thought that he would buy dinner.”
Alison shook her head. “No, his extra money as he put it was already spent on his car and that he couldn’t afford to pay.”
“Well, you don’t have to worry about that, pretty lady. I’ll be paying for dinner tonight.” Wild Bill said, looking at her. “I won’t be another like ‘Flint’, I pay for dinner when I take a pretty filly like you out to dinner,”
Jaye smiled. "You are one of a kind, Bill." She said, as she graced him with a rare brilliant smile.
“I love it when you smile like that, Alison. Your whole face glows.” Wild Bill said, smiling in return to her smile.
“Thanks. Flint would think that I was flirting with some man across the way when I smile at him.” Alison said, she shook her head sadly. “Why in the world am I talking about that loser, he’s not even in my life anymore?”
“He has tainted your perspective on men who takes you out on dates; you end up paying for the dinner while he yaks only about himself.” Wild Bill replied.
“I think it will not take me too long to get over him as he really didn’t respect me after all. He was all possessive about who I was with by calling me every few minutes and even when he knew who I was with . . . he would call and ask me who was I with and I would tell him that he had asked that of me already five minutes before and it is the same. I turned my cell phone to voice mail; he would call every five minutes till he filled up my voice box with his calls. But he would come to where I was at if he didn’t get a hold of me. Quite embarrassing for me to explain to him that he kept on interrupting our night out by calling me so I put my phone on voice mail. If he didn’t like it, he can dump me, he never did. I had to when I found out about his cheating ways.” Alison said.
Wild Bill just shook his head sadly. “I’m sorry that you had to go through all that trouble with him, Alison. I promise you I won’t be like that to you.”
Alison smiled. “I know; I feel so much comfortable with you then with him.”
Wild Bill smiled. "That makes me feel good."
Alison smiled a big smile. “So should we have desert here or go off to the ice cream shop for an ice cream cone or something sweet?”
"Up to you, there is a good ice cream parlor by the park if you feel like a nice stroll." Wild Bill suggested.
“Sure,” Alison replied.
The waitress came by to pick up their plates. “Shall I tell you our desert specials?”
“No, the check please,” Wild Bill said, glancing up to the waitress and then back to Alison.
“Very well, here it is. Pay me when you are ready. We take Discovery, Visa, MasterCard and American Express and cash.” She said, as she lifted the tray up onto her shoulder and walked away.
Wild Bill pulled out his wallet and after scanning the check of $70, pulled out his Visa card and placed it in the credit card holder and placed it down on the table. “Visa, I never leave home without it,”
Alison chuckled at his little ad comment as she picked up her glass of water and took a sip from it.
About five minutes later the bill was paid for and they strolled to the jeep, where Wild Bill held the door open for her and then they headed off to the ice cream parlor that was next to the park.
They both got double ice cream cones and walked through the park for a good hour before they headed back to the jeep and headed back to Alison’s apartment.
“I had a fun time tonight, Wild Bill.” Alison said, after she opened her door.
“As did I, Alison, I had a really fun time,” Wild Bill replied with a smile on his face.
“Maybe we can do this next week?” Alison asked.
“I would be very honored, Alison.” Wild Bill said, with excitement hinting in his voice.
“Remember, my dad will be here sometime this coming week and he’ll want to meet you,” Alison stated.
“Of course, I would like to meet him too. I have to get permission officially to date a pretty lady from her father,” Wild Bill said.
Alison smiled at him and gave him a kiss on the cheek. “I’ll see you tomorrow at the base, Wild Bill.”
Wild Bill tipped his hat to her as he watched as her door closed, he turned around and walked back to his jeep, and did a jig as he went to his jeep to drive back to base a very happy man.
~~~~~~~
Wild Bill drove up to the garage and parked his jeep; he headed for the exit to see Duke and Scarlett standing there. Duke smiled. “So how did the date go?”
“It was perfect, not a call from Flint or anyone and we danced and took a stroll in the park while eating our ice cream cones. She even gave me a kiss on the cheek at the end of the date. I am also invited to meet her dad when he comes for her birthday. Now I need to get her a birthday gift that she will love,” Wild Bill said.
“Well, don’t get her a picture frame with a picture of yourself in it, that was Flint’s habit of doing. Get her something nice,” Scarlett replied.
"Get her a dozen roses sent to her apartment while her father's there. That ought to make a good impression." Duke suggested.
"Her favorite roses are the orange ones." Scarlett told him.
"How about getting her a puppy or a kitten?" Duke added.
Scarlett looked at him. “Duke! Think about it, if he gets her a kitten or a puppy, the puppy will have to come to the base with her all the time, there is responsibility to owning both pets.”
“Oh, right, she wouldn’t be able to leave for extended missions because of them, my mistake. Flowers is a good thing and maybe a gift card to a spa or a beauty parlor?” Duke said.
Wild Bill looked at them both. “I think I’ll call a few spas in town and see what their all day spas cost.”
“That would be something that ‘he’ never thought of to get her and if he thought about it, the price alone would have chased him away from it as a nice package costs about one hundred and twenty dollars to get,” Scarlett replied, as they walked back to the main building never noticing that Flint was listening in on their conversations.
Flint walked behind them not letting them know he was there, just waiting for the right moment to pin Wild Bill against a wall or something to badger him away from his girl.
Flint saw his chance as Wild Bill headed off in a different direction from Duke and Scarlett. He went after Wild Bill without hesitation and pinned him against a tank. “What are you doing with my girl?” He snapped.
Wild Bill looked at him shocked at first and then mad. “What girl, Flint? From what I hear, your girl is Angela Locksbury, not anyone from this base,”
“You know the one! Lady Jaye! She’s my girlfriend!” Flint snapped off, pushing even harder against Wild Bill.
“I guess you didn’t get the memo – Lady Jaye dumped you remember? She told you . . . to go fuck your mistress now since you and she are no longer an item or in other words, no longer a couple, she walked away from you. She dumped you for cheating on her with Angela Locksbury still,” Wild Bill retorted, managing to get his hands on Flint’s arms and started to push him off of him.
“Well, she was angry but she’ll come back to me. She always does.” Flint said, with a smug look on his face.
“This time I don’t think so, Flint. This time was her final time that she will ever see you as a boyfriend material, as you cheated on her and broke your vow of staying with the same woman and not seeing others.” Wild Bill stated, shoving him back away from him and walked away towards the building where Duke and Scarlett headed into, he was going to report Flint’s assault on his person to Hawk.
“She’s mine, Wild Bill, she’s mine!” Roared Flint.
All Wild Bill did was raise his hand up and flipped him the bird before walking out of his sight. Wild Bill as soon as he was out of Flint’s eyesight, he rushed to the building and up the stairs to Hawk’s level and went rushing to his door, knocking first before he entered.
Hawk looked over as did Scarlett and Duke. “Wild Bill, how was the date?”
“It was really good. But we have a problem with Flint?” Wild Bill said.
“And what would that be?” Duke asked. “Beyond him trying to win Lady Jaye back,”
“Flint has the mistaken belief that he and Lady Jaye are still a couple and that she will return to him,” Wild Bill said. “He pinned me against a tank, telling me to get away from his girl.”
Hawk shook his head, as did Duke and Scarlett. “He won’t leave her new man in her life alone till she returns to him, if she ever will, which I seriously doubt knowing that he will cheat on her with that woman still.” Duke said.
“So what do we do, Hawk?” asked Scarlett.
“Get Flint out of the country for a month under a white lie of tracking a possible Cobra cell,” Hawk replied.
“But where should it be at?” asked Duke.
"How about in the Amazon, Duke," Scarlett suggested. "Jaye said she received a report she thought was just the locals seeing ghosts."
Hawk looked thoughtful about it for several minutes; they wondered if it would work. He looked at them. “I want it to be as foolproof as possible to where Flint won’t know he’s on a wild goose chase till it is a month and a half from now. I want Flint gone for a long time, that way, Wild Bill and Lady Jaye can date in peace.”
“Yes sir!” Duke and Scarlett said, as they both hurried out of the room to plan the plan to trick Flint to leave for a long time. They called Beachhead to let him know that Flint maybe asking him to go on an Amazon mission with him but say you have new recruits to train and can’t leave them for a mission like that and then told him why they were pushing Flint off base for a while, Beachhead agreed to go along with them as he didn’t like what Flint did to Lady Jaye anyways.
Hawk looked at Wild Bill after they had left. “I’m sorry what Flint has done to you, Wild Bill.”
Wild Bill looked at him and asked. “Can I speak frank with you, sir?”
“Yes, permitted.”
Wild Bill sat down in the chair. “I think Flint will not let up on winning Jaye back. He’ll try everything in his power to get her to return to him. In his mind, he didn’t think that his mistress was cheating on Jaye and that Jaye is still is his girlfriend and that her date with me was an affair. He will hurt her one day. He is the possessive type of man and I fear he will hurt her. If I have to, I will go to the military court to get Flint either discharged from the military or get a restraining order on him towards Lady Jaye.”
“I don’t think you have to go that far, Wild Bill. The trip to the Amazon will cool his jets about Lady Jaye being his girlfriend. Don’t worry about it,” Hawk said. “Now, go to your room and get some sleep.”
“I hope you are right about that sir,” Wild Bill replied, as he saluted his commanding officer and headed for his quarters and went to bed.
~~~~~~~~~
Jaye pulled into her designated parking spot on the base the next day feeling really good about herself after her date with an amazing man the night before. She took note of Flint’s car sitting there in his place before heading for the exit of the garage when she saw Flint leaning against the wall. She ignored him as she walked.
“So now you are cheating on me? What’s next, you letting him poke you?” Flint snapped, as he stalked next to her.
“Flint, get lost!” Jaye snapped.
“Seriously, are you letting him touch you there,” Flint said, as he grabbed her arm, only to find himself on the ground with her foot to his throat.
“Get this message through to your pea size brain, Flint. We are no longer an item. You and I are no longer dating. I dumped you for cheating on me with that bitch Angela Locksbury who is carrying your bastard child. You and I are over! Remember that!” Jaye pushed off his throat and walked away leaving him watching her walk away.
“You are still mine, Jaye. You are still my woman.” Flint said, as he got up and dusted himself off, picked up his hat, dusted that off before placing it on his head and walked off.
Duke noticed the look of fury on Lady Jaye’s face. “Don’t tell me, Flint nagged on you about Wild Bill?”
“Yes, he did. But I gave him a flip and my shoe on his throat and basically restated that I dumped him for cheating on me and I walked away from him.” Lady Jaye stated. “So who is going to investigate my report on possible ghosts in the Amazon?”
“Flint will be. I’ll be giving him his orders in another hour. He will assume he is after a Cobra cell that is trying to form there as the natives are talking about ghosts in the Amazon and we think it is a Cobra cell. He’ll check it out and be gone for a month and a half.” Duke said.
Jaye sighed. "Thank you."
“Anyways, you and Wild Bill need no distractions while you two are dating and it was hard enough to keep Flint busy with the reports to keep his hand away from his cell phone to where we had to take it from him.” Duke said.
Lady Jaye looked shocked at him. “You mean you really got his phone away from him?”
“Yes, and while I was outside in the hallway, I changed your number by a few numbers to where when he calls you or tries to, he will be hearing number disconnected from now on.” Duke smiled.
“You are a gem, Duke. Thank you! But one thing . . . ?”
“What?”
“Won’t he look at the number to see that it is wrong?” asked Lady Jaye.
Duke shook his head. “I have never seen the man ever look at a number after he dials it or at least looks at his screen after he does his autodial. I doubt that he will. And while he is in the remote sections of the Amazon, I’ll keep calling him asking him for updates on his cell phone multiple times to drain his battery so he won’t be able to call till he returns to a city and recharges his battery.”
“And when he calls or tries to call me, he will get a disconnected phone number instead of my voice. Perfect, he will not be very pleased that I ditched my phone or so he thinks!” Lady Jaye smiled.
"Just try to stay away from him until he leaves." Duke told her handing her a few files he needed her to go over for him.
“I do, Duke, but he doesn’t want to stay away from me.” Lady Jaye replied, taking hold of the files.
“You told him to leave you alone?”
“Yes, several times and there will be a day when I will pull my weapon on him and make him leave. That is probably the only time he will back off and walk away or when I pin him to the ground. I am starting to dread coming here, if I have to contend with him each day. There will be a day when I will not come here to do anything because of him!” Lady Jaye snapped. She was getting to her last straw with Flint and one day there will be a shot fired at him by her.
“I’m working on getting him out of here. Hawk has to approve the mission first.” Duke replied.
“Fine, I’m going to head for my office to read over the files,” Lady Jaye stated, before she walked out of his office and into her office expecting to see Flint sitting in the chair waiting for her like he normally would but found no one there. She let loose the breath she held as she closed her door and walked to her couch where she proceeded to read over the files that Duke wanted her to look over.
It was couple of hours later, she called Duke to come over to her office and they’ll talk about the files. He came over; he also took note of Flint hanging around the corridor of her office. He flipped open his cell phone and called Hawk.
“Hawk here,” Hawk said into his speaker phone, as he busily flipped through the papers he read that morning.
“Duke here, I need you to get Flint away from Jaye’s office. He’s hanging about the corridor like he is waiting for Wild Bill to walk down the corridor to harass him or to bother Lady Jaye when she emerges from her office.” Duke said.
“Alright, I’ll get him out of there.” Hawk replied. He hung up the phone with his second in command. He dialed a number.
Flint’s phone rang and he answered it quickly. “Flint speaking,”
“Flint, my office now,” Hawk snapped.
“Yes sir, I’m on my way, sir,” Flint replied as he ended the call and headed off to get to Hawk’s office to see what he wanted.
When Flint got there, Hawk didn’t look very happy with him. “Sit down, Flint.”
Flint knew something was wrong as usually Hawk would call him son, when he saw him. “What’s wrong, sir?”
Hawk looked at him. “I’m disappointed in you. You had a great thing with Lady Jaye . . . .”
“She’ll return to me, she always has in the past, this is no different.” Flint stated. He still assumed that she was just angry at him, not that she had dumped him for good for cheating on her.
Hawk looked at him. “Flint, I think you are mistaken this time around. She has no intentions of returning to you. Look what you have done to her. You cheated on her with that Angela woman.” He pulled out photos of Flint walking hand and hand with Angela and the dates were quite recent on the photos as he placed them in front of Flint. Flint didn’t even look at them.
“She will return to me after she cooled down. She did so in the past, I don’t see any difference this time around,” Flint said.
“Flint, she’s not interested in you anymore as a boyfriend,” Hawk replied.
“She’s just making me feel how she felt, when I cheated on her, but it’s over with the girl. I haven’t seen her in over a month,” Flint lied.
“Don’t lie to me, Flint. Take a look at these,” Hawk said, pushing the photos in front of him. He watched as Flint looked down at the photos and paled. “You see the dates on the photos. I haven’t seen her in over a month is nothing more then a lie that you say to yourself to think that Lady Jaye would return to your side.”
“But she will return to my side,” Flint restated.
Hawk shook his head. Flint was deluding himself and the possibility of him becoming a stalker was going to be high since now Lady Jaye is starting to date another member of the team – Wild Bill. “Flint, there is another reason why I called you in here beyond talking to you about Lady Jaye. There is a possible Cobra cell forming in the Amazon. I want you to go and search the Amazon to find this cell, take only the bare necessities on the mission. I’m giving you a month and a half time to find the cell and report back to Duke. He will call periodically to get any updates on the mission. So expect his call each other day. Duke will tell you when he’ll be calling you.”
“I'll go have Lady Jaye get ready to go." Flint said standing up.
“Lady Jaye isn’t assigned to this mission, this is a solo mission,” Hawk stated.
“What do you mean? I always go on missions with Lady Jaye?” asked Flint. He was somewhat shocked that he was going to be going solo on this.
“Not this time around. The feelings that Lady Jaye has towards you is now in the violent stage because you will not let her be and I want you far away from her before she puts a bullet in your head.” Hawk snapped.
“But sir, she’s just venting. She’ll see me as her boyfriend once again.” Flint said.
Hawk looked sternly at him. “Your plane to the Amazon rainforest leaves in less then one hour, you better hurry and get your gear together and get to the tarmac now, Flint.”
“Yes sir,” Flint replied, hurrying out of Hawk’s office.
Hawk dialed a number. “Duke, bring Lady Jaye and yourself to my office in one hour and if Lady Jaye is with you, don’t let her out of your sight, Flint is heading out in less then one hour and she doesn’t need to see him.”
“Okay, sir.” Duke replied, hanging up the phone. He turned to Lady Jaye. “Flint will be gone in less then an hour.”
“Thank God!” Lady Jaye sighed. She knew it would be less then an hour before she is rid of her bothersome ex-boyfriend and she can date Wild Bill in peace.
"Hawk wants to see us in an hour." Duke explained to her. "He wants you to stay with me until then."
“I have no intentions of seeing that man off, Duke. He means absolutely nothing to me. My father will be proud of me ditching him finally.” Jaye replied.
“Your dad didn’t like him?” asked Duke.
Jaye shook her head. “Thought he was not right for me, too possessive around me, always kept his arm around me, glared at my former high school classmates when we went to my high school reunion one year. My friends later called me up and told me what he was doing when I was standing with some of my male classmates. I was almost ready to kick him to the curb back then; I really should have because I wouldn’t have minded him screwing that girl, knowing that he was no longer my boyfriend.”
“I hope your dad likes Wild Bill,” Duke replied.
“So do I,”
“So when is he coming to the base?”
“Next week for my birthday, Wild Bill is going to meet him then.” Lady Jaye stated.
~~~~~~~~~
Lady Jaye and Duke sat there talking for an hour before they looked at the time and realized that they were late, they hurried to the next room, knocked and entered the room.
“Sorry, we’re late sir; we were busy talking about things.” Duke said, looking at Hawk.
“No biggie, Flint’s plane just took off about ten minutes ago.” Hawk said, as the two officers sat down in the chairs in front of him.
“Thank God, I can now relax around here knowing that he isn’t around to bother me or Wild Bill anymore.”
“For a good month and a half, Jaye, I still cannot believe that he tried to lie to me about not seeing that Angela person.” Hawk replied.
“What?” asked Duke and Jaye at the same time.
“Yes, he tried to lie to me about not seeing her over a month ago, till I produced these photos of them that were done a couple days ago. That shut him up fast even though he stated that you would return to him.” Hawk replied, pulling out photos of Flint and his mistress hanging out together before putting them away. “Plus, he thought that you were also assigned to go on this mission too and was about to go get you, but I told him that this was a solo mission.”
Jaye fumed. “That bastard, he still doesn’t get it in his fat head that I am not his girlfriend anymore, I never will be after that fucking stunt he pulled!”
Both men looked at Jaye, they never heard her swear before, well, Duke did but it was shocking to hear. Hawk asked. “What stunt?”
“This morning, he accused me, ‘me’ of cheating on him with Wild Bill. Needless to say, if I had my gun with me, he would have a wound somewhere on his body.” Lady Jaye stated. “I am very tempted to file a restraining order on him or try to see if the military court will discharge him from the service. He is not what you want in the military. He’s unstable when it comes to me.”
“Maybe you two should have a look at this?” said Hawk, as he pulled out a huge file and placed it in front of them.
They flipped through the files to see reports of Flint harassing other members of the Joe team for minor problems and calling certain members at almost all hours of the day and night to check on what they were doing or not doing. Then, they saw the reports from the Crimson Guard commanders themselves.
Lady Jaye looked up at Hawk. “You mean you took a report from them?”
“I had to or they would have gone public with a civil suit against Flint themselves, and especially when they sent me the added bonus of EE’s video and audio tapes of his visits to their offices and after I talked with Flint’s groupies who go there with him each time, the twins have informed me that they had quit Cobra over five years ago, due of Cobra not paying them the money that they were owed and they have no clue to what they are up to anymore and have no desire to know. They also informed me that Cobra is about to fall apart. Destro and the Baroness are about to bail on them as well.” Hawk stated.
Duke chuckled. “So that was why we saw someone different leading the Crimson Guard the last several battles we fought against Cobra, the twins quit. So what did they say about Flint?”
“That he’s harassing them and their clients and their secretaries if they aren’t there, they badger and threaten to arrest them if they don’t give him any information on where they are at. Various terroristic things, I’m very disappointed in Flint and if he didn’t leave the base for that mission that is really not a mission, I would have handed the file over to the JAGs and file a discharge report on Flint. I do not like what I see in him anymore, I had very high hopes for the man but now, he is a walking terrorist.” Hawk stated.
"I knew he was jealous of Tomax because he thought he had eyes for me." Jaye said softly, shaking her head.
“Maybe because you were the one who refused to go gaga over both men and I know some men would rather have a woman be uninterested in them then be interested in them for the wrong reason.” Hawk replied.
“Besides didn’t they both take you away from the battle just in the nick of time when a laser shot would have landed where you were standing, Jaye.” Duke said.
“They did and in a way, I’m glad. But the thing I was most shocked about was that if I hit one the other felt it too and that gave me joy beating one up and seeing the other’s reaction. But is this true that they quit Cobra for good or is this just a temp thing?” asked Jaye.
Hawk looked at them both. “I think they are very serious about it as we haven’t seen either of them in battle in over five years.”
“And Flint has been harassing them by what the reports say of the past eight years, five of those years were after they quit Cobra,” Duke said, looking at the report again. “I say to hell with the waiting part, I suggest filing the paper work on Flint’s discharge immediately. He is not someone we want in the group. He is a PR nightmare in the making.”
“Are you sure, you want to get him discharged from the military, Conrad?” asked Hawk, looking at his second in command. “He is after all your best friend here on the base.”
“Sir, if the press found out that we have a terrorist who is a Joe in the team and still allowing him to do his terroristic barges in to legit businesses, they will rip us a new one and the Senate will yank our budget or disband the whole unit itself. We need him gone now.” Lady Jaye stated.
“Is that your hate of him being a cheater talking or the truth, Jaye?” asked Hawk.
“The truth, sir, if we let him remain, people will wonder if we are harboring a terrorist and knowing that he is one and not putting him where he belongs in jail,” Lady Jaye replied.
"We need to make sure our tails are covered before we act. I say we wait and see how he is when he gets back." Duke suggested.
“Very well, but if he does anything to me or to Wild Bill, I want that discharge papers filed immediately,” Lady Jaye snapped. She wasn’t going to go out of that room without hearing them promise her that, since Flint has already bothered both of them once or twice since Wild Bill and she started to date.
“Very well, it will be done if he does anything to either of you,” Hawk promised.
“Good,” Lady Jaye replied, as she walked out of the office and down to the recreation room to see Wild Bill and ask him if he wants to go out on another date with her.
The next one is coming.
