Kevin took Trinity's hotel room key that the receptionist had given him a minute earlier and unlocked the door.  It made a soft buzz and the door clicked open.  With Trinity still in his arms Kevin carefully walked into the room cracking the door for A.J.  She hadn't stirred at all on the way up to their floor.  This felt so right to him...holding her in his arms, her head placed upon his chest.  He smelt her hair before he placed her gently on the king-sized bed.  Her room was really nice.  The bed had black-silk sheets with a black blanket, a balcolny, which was very nice since they were on the top floor, the bathroom was very elegant and spacious equipped with a whirlpool.  Kevin hoped his room was this nice.  He heard Trinity moan and watched her sit up.  She didn't have her glasses on and she looked so...sexy.  He defintely liked her better without them.  She looked so librarian like with them on.  He had no clue why she needed them, she probably just wore them to read or something.

  She scratched her head and sat up, looking up at Kevin.  "Oh god...am I dreaming?"  She mumbled, throwing her feet over the bed, sitting up fully now.  "Nope, fraid not.  You look really tired, you should crawl under those covers and get some sleep."  Kevin told her.  "What...huh?  I...where the hell am I?  We're at the hotel already?"  Trinity asked with a yawn.  "Yeah."  She got up to her feet.  "Damn...my head hurts..."  She wobbled a little, feeling a dizzy spell coming on.  "Whoooaaa..."  Her body swayed and Kevin caught her pulling her to him right before she fell to the floor.  "Whoa...shit...that was close..."  She looked up at Kevin, her eyes half-open, and yawned again.  Their bodies were pressed together and it felt like the night at the MTV party.  Their bodies tingled at each others flesh.  "I'm feeling...really woozy Kev..."  She said softly, not breaking their gaze.  He remained expressionless.  Raising his eyebrows he responded, "I am too..."  He stared down at her full lips.  They looked so soft and kissable.  Damn...all he had to do...was...move his face a little closer...

  "Okay, got her luggage!"  A.J.'s booming voice broke them apart as he burst through the door with her tiny suitcase and duffell bag.  She kept most of her clothes on the bus for they never stayed in a hotel longer than two or three days.  Most of the time it was only one night.  He looked at them, and got the vibe he interuppted something.  Especially from the looks Kevin were sending his way.  "Anyhoooo, dude Kev, did you get her some ice yet?"  "Whoa shit, oh man I forgot.  I'll be right back Trin."  Kevin said, feeling stupid.  "Oh no Kev, its fine, my head doesn't hurt that bad..."  But it was bullshit cause she collapsed onto her bed chuckling softly. "Ok, maybe it does..." 

  When Kevin left A.J. rushed over to her.  "So Girl, I know something was about to happen before I waltzed in so spill."  A.J. urged.  "Awww A.J.  I'm too tired...I can't think..."  Trinity complained.  "Are you too tired for...this..."  He said with a grin, sticking his hand up her shirt and tracing a line around her breasts.  "A.J.!  Dammit, not now.  I'm too sleepy.  I just wanna go to sleep.  I'm not having a good day."  She complained, moving away from him.  "Aww I'm sorry, you should let Dr. Love make it all better."  A.J. said huskily in her ear, shifting his body so he was hovering over her seductively.  She pushed him away.  "No A.J.  Kevin will be back any minute."  "Ohhh I see, I understand.  You want Kevin to make it better."  A.J. said with a grin.  She smirked, her eyes closed and nodded slightly.  A.J. preteneded to be hurt.  "Ok...I understand..., *sniff* you don't want to fuck good ol' A.J. anymore..."  Trinity couldn't respond cause Kevin walked in then.

  "Alright Trinity, I got the ice, lay down while I go get a warm wash-cloth."  Kevin told her, making his way into the bathroom.  "Ooo, he wants you to lay down Trin."  A.J. teased.  Trinity playfully slapped him, doing what Kevin told her.  "Okay, I'm gonna leave you two alone.  I need to get back to Tracy."  A.J. told her, licking her cheek as she gave him a disgusted look.  He just smirked and left the room.  Kevin walked out of the bathroom just as the door closed.  He sat down on the bed, and gently put the washcloth full of ice on her bump.  She sighed and closed her eyes for a second.  When she opened them Kevin was studying her.  She smiled at him and stretched.  "You don't have to stay Kev and babysit me.  It's okay, I'll be fine."  "Well, I want to...I want to make sure your okay."

  "Well...it's okay with me if you want to stay."  Trinity couldn't believe she had just said that.  Kevin's lips curved into a smile, and said.  "You know...I bet I can make your bump feel better than this ice can."  She gave him an inquiring look, and before she knew it his lips were gently pressed against the bruised bump on her head.  Tingles and warmth were sent through her shoulders and neck.  Oh shit...oh god...crap...small words kept running through Trinity's head.  She didn't know how to react or what to say now.  She was at a loss.  She never expected him to make a move.  He pulled away and looked at her.  "Trin, I have a confession."  Taking her hand, he brought it to his face.  The butterflies grew rapidly.  She just gulped not being able to say a word.  "I'm really glad I got this moment alone with you, and I've been trying to tell you this for awhile."  He took a deep breath.  "I've liked you for the longest time.  Since the first time I've laid eyes on you.  It's been driving me crazy.  Your all I think about, I can't eat, sleep, perform, without YOU on my mind.  Shit, even when I'm screwing someone else I can't think about anybody but you."  This left her speechless.  She had no words...there were no words popping out of her head.  She couldn't speak.

  "I just hope your not scared or anything, think I'm a huge stalker, or obsessed, cause I'm not.  I'm just so smitten with you, and it's driving me crazy.  And...I've wanted to do this...for the longest time."  He lowered his head to her's, his lips getting closer.  She just laid there until his lips captured hers.  Than her body responded.  He wrapped an arm around her waist gently, trying to be careful with her.  Their kiss started out slow, not passionate at all.  Just a tender kiss that lasted for maybe ten seconds.  It would have lasted longer if the phone hadn't rang.  "Shit..."  Trinity hissed, breaking away from Kevin and picked up the phone.  "HELLO!"  "Whoa...Angel?"  She perked up at her name, and gently pushed Kevin away from her, shooing him away.  "Yes...er...George?"  She mumbled out.  "I'm so glad I got a hold of you hon.  It's been real hectic, and I have some terrible news.  No one is around you are they?"  "Um yeah, hold on."  Trinity covered the phone.  "Kev, I-"  "I understand Trin, no prob.  We'll talk later."  Kevin had said it so curtly, he was hurt she knew.  Shit...she thought as he slammed the door behind him not looking back at her once.

  Gulping, she placed the phone back on her ear.  "Okay, George.  Clear, whats up?"  "Angel, your in serious trouble.  Somehow Kane (the skin heads leader) has broken out.  We have no goddamn clue how-"  Before he could finish Angel gasped.  She jumped up off her bed.  "What!?  How?  How the hell could that happen?!?!!  What the fuck are we gonna do?"  She didn't realize she was shouting so loud.  "Hold on, let me finish.  He somehow had some connections from the inside.  And we have no clue, we're questioning everybody that was on duty that day.  He was gone for two hours before we knew he was missing.  Can you believe it, Pug discovered he was missing (remember the kid in chapter 1?)  Penny had taken him in to show him around the cells for like the 50th time that morning, and she left for a second to make a call, and than Pug came running telling Penny Cell 69 was empty.  That place is bolted, there was no damage in the room, it was just completely empty."  "Oh shit...George...now we're in trouble for sure.  Wasn't his execution date in February?"  Angel wondered.  "Yeah, in two months.  Angel, I'm fearing for your life.  We've come to the conclusion that he knows where you are.  If he has connections, than he might somehow have found out.  You know he's out for blood and your his first target.  If he doesn't know already, he'll know for sure soon.  I think its time we abort and get you the fuck out of there before anyone gets hurt."

  Calmly, Trinity or soon to be Angel again straigtened her shoulders.  "I understand, have you talked to Johnny or Donna yet?"  "Yes, just a moment before I called you.  I told them the situation and their preparing you a flight back out to L.A. tonight.  I will meet you at the airport tommorow around 6:00 p.m.  If the flight schedule is right, you'll arrive in California at 5:00 p.m. and arrive at the airport at 5:45."  George informed.  "But are you sure its safe, what if I'm walking into a death trap, he could be waiting for me."  She said.  "We figured he's already on his way to Germany.  I suggest you start packing Angel.  We don't have much time.  Considering the break-out was yesterday afternoon who knows where the hell he is."  "Alright, tommorow than."  "Before you go Angel, watch your back.  I don't want you to get hurt."  "Yes, thank you."  With that she hung up.  She dreaded this day.  The charade was over...
