I stuck out my hand. "A pleasure sir." "As it is for me young man. I've been following the season so far and it seems you are our bright new star in gymnastics." "I do the best that I can sir and I've been very lucky so far." "It has been my experience that luck has very little to do with it Mr Sawyer. Hard work is what makes the grade. Well it appears that you have finished your workout for the day. I suppose that I will have to catch you at some other time or one of the remaining meets this season. Regardless I shall be keeping an eye on you. Well Dean Evans shall we have a look at the other members who are still working?" "Of course Andros. If you will excuse us Mr Sawyer." "Absolutely Dean Evans, Mr Teramedies." I don't know how but I managed not to start shaking until they were well inside the Rec Center. Dwayne was walking past at that point. "Damn Dennis you look like you've just seen a ghost. You ok?" "No, but I will be. I think." "You want me to get coach or the nurse?" "No I'll be fine, but thanks Dwayne." I got myself under control and headed for my dorm. Nobody was there when I got in and I did the now routine sweep and found nothing. That still didn't stop me from giving the signal. Not ten minutes later Stimson was at my door in his tech nerd personae. "That wi fi still giving you trouble Mr Sawyer?" He swung his finger around the room. I closed the door. "It's clean but I just had a run in with Andros Teramedies, or at least someone purporting to be him. He said he intends to keep an eye on me." Stimson whipped out his phone and hit a speed dial. "I need a 20 on primary.........Really? I have a report of him being here on campus.............yeah you do that." He disconnected his phone and then punched a few things and turned his phone to me. "This the guy you saw?" "Sure as hell looks like him to me. I left him and Dean Evans at the Rec Center about 20 minutes ago." He punched another setting on his phone. "All stations we have a credible report of primary on campus. All stations alert Last known location was the Rec Center." He ended the call. "I need a detailed account of your conversation." I gave it to his as close to verbatim as I could. "It is a known fact that he does have an interest in college gymnastics so it is possible he was referring to that." I just looked at Stimson. "He's had several months to express interest. The timing suggests that this is more than coincidental." Stimson just gave me a look. "What?" "Nothing, you just sounded like me supervisor for a second." "Don't you start on me." Stimson just gave me another look. "One of the police officers in my hometown is after me to join the academy. Says my instincts are to good." "Sounds a smart man to me. But back to this situation. You did the right thing in calling me. I still want you to try and carry on as usual. You do anything special on Friday nights or over the weekend?" "Sometimes we go out to eat,the weekends depend on if there is a meet or not, but we usually just hang around campus." "You ever just take spur of the moment trips?" "Once in a while." "Ok, I want you to go out to supper tonight, just so we can see if he has a tail on you. On campus is just a bit busy for us to be sure. It would definately help if you and Mr Holtz took off somewhere." "Somebody better at surveilence than the guy who tailed me from the DAs office I hope." "One of my best agents. You'll never even know we are there." "The question isn't if I know you're there but if Teramedies guys know. Question,have you guys put a tracker on either of our cars?" "No why did you find one?" "Not as yet but Mr Holtz and I both check our cars over before we drive. If we should find one I wanted to know if it was yours or not." "We won't tag your cars as long as you have that panic button. It has a built in tracker. But I have to ask why you check your car?" "I'm sure the FBI has a file on Mr Larry Brown and his invovlement with me. That should be enough to tell you. So until further notice, it's business as usual?" "Yes sir." "I'll see what I can do about going away this weekend,but I make no promises." "Fair enough. Try to take it easy Mr Sawyer. This may turn into a war of nerves. In that kind of situation your own arsenal can become your worst enemy." "Just cover my ass and I'll be happy." "That we can do. Any idea where you might go to supper?" "Our usual places are the Asian buffet in the mall,Ron's out on rt 12, Tony's just off campus and Rifkins steak house." "We followed you to Tonys. Good sandwiches." "The best." "Any other concerns before I leave?" "Not that I can think of." "Ok then,just hang in there." Stimson left just as Karl was coming down the hall. Stimson didn't acknowledge Karl in any way. "Who was that strange man coming from my lovers room?" "Tech support. The wifi's acting up again." I got Karl into the room and shut the door. "That was agent Stimson love. Hold on to your hat. I was introduced to Andros Terameidies this afternoon, by Dean Evans no less." "You have got to be shitting me!" "Nope. Seems he is a follower of the gymnastics team and I've caught his eye as the bright new star of the team. He said he was going to be keeping his eyes on me." "A warning?" "A possibility I suppose. Stimson wants us to go out tonight or take an unnannounced trip and see if anybody follows us." "Other than his guys?" "Well yeah." "I suppose we can always go out to Rons for supper tonight and maybe out to the state park for another trail ride, even if we don't do the overnight." "Rons would probably make it easier for them to spot a tail. Maybe for us too." "We shouldn't be trying to spot them Den. We're not suppose to be aware remember?" "I suppose not, still I'd rather know who to be looking out for." "We getting Gordon and Aiden to go with us?" "It would be a little strange if they didn't after all of this time." "Yeah I suppose, but I know you Den. You don't want to make them targets any more than they are already." "I can't argue with that. We'll give them the choice." Almost as if on cue there was a knock at the door. I went and opened it an of course it was Gordon and Aiden. "So what's up for tonight?" "Well for starters we're heading to Rons for supper. Beyond that we haven't planned." "Sounds good to me. Mind if we hang?" "Your choice guys." "Well then let's blow this pop stand." We all filed out of the room and headed for the parking lot. I did give the car the once over and found nothing. We evetually got to Rons and I hadn't detected anybody following us. Even as we went inside I was watching to see if any cars pulled in behind us. I didn't notice any which didn't necessarily mean they weren't there. Gladys was there to take our orders. "Grilled ham steak and au grautin potatoe is the special tonight along with the usual veggies." "Sounds good to me with a diet coke." "2" "3" "4 but with an ice tea please." "Coming right up guys." It was only about 10 minutes later that out food was brought out and as usual it was good and it was hot. The two things I looked for in any meal. We were finishing up when Paul and a couple of his friends came in. "Hey Paul. Hows life been treating you?" "Not to bad. Looks like you guys are almost finished. Be damn careful on the way home. Looks like there might be a speed trap or something on the road tonight." "What makes you think that?" "Noticed a car pulled up into one of those little side roads and it looked like a couple of guys just sitting there. No markings on it,so yelled 'speed trap' to me Dennis." "Thanks for the warning Paul. We'll take it easy." Karl and I looked at each other and said not a word. Aiden noticed. "What gives you two?" "Better you don't know." "Bullshit." "It may....MAY have something to do with that bank robbery and the gambling." "Or? What's the other shoe Dennis?" "Not here." "Fine, but when we get back to the dorm we want the full skinny." "Done. When we leave be sure to buckle up tight just in case." "Dennis what the hell?" "Sorry Paul not for public consumption. Maybe someday." "Ok Dennis. Just be careful." "Count on it." We paid up and headed out. I did check the car over before anybody got in. I pulled out of the lot and headed back toward campus. Everybody was keeping their eyes open at this point and the car was easily spotted sitting on the side road. I waited for the headlights to appear in my rear view. I didn't see anything and we were soon back on main roads and the local "Miracle Mile". It being Friday night traffic was a bit heavy. We got back to campus without any problem and the four of us headed to my room. Pete was out so I went and got the bug detector and swept the room, finding nothing. "Now what the hell Dennis?" I proceeded to give Aiden and Gordon the full report. The whole thing with the FBI, right up to an including the meeting with Andros Teramedies this afternoon. When I mentioned the name Teramedies, Gordons head came up.
