Chapter 18

Alex Vaughn shut the door to the hotel room behind him. The snow let up a bit and the sun was peeking through for a brief moment, making the day feel a bit warmer. The snow on the ground though, and the occasional gust of wind reminded Alex that it was still winter.

Vaughn thought about what just transpired in the hotel room behind him as he walked towards Wizeguyz. It was good to know that he had some allies. Alex had not realized it but he was feeling very much alone in all of this.

The plan for now was to go back to the pool hall and see what transpired. Alex asked Hi-Def why the recording went to static. There must have been some useful information missed due to the untimely end of the device. But Hi-Def told Alex that they did not even have a bug in the pool hall. They used a long distance microphone and once the van was out of range they lost the ability to eavesdrop on the conversation.

Hi-Def gave Alex the phone codes to the secure lines for each of the men in the unit along with a nifty radio transmitter that looked like a button on the sleeve of his jacket. He would be able to transmit to Hi-Def’s laptop and he would get a notice on his Blackberry in real time as the message came in.

They also worked out a plan where Hambone and Hi-Def would be on the tail of either Alex or Ricky at various times. It would provide at least a measure of security for Alex who, up until now, had no backup. Ricky was going to go back to Joey Ciancetta’s house and go to a wise guy party that night and see what he could discern.

All in all, Alex liked Hi-Def and Hambone. The two of them seemed genuine in their concern about getting some semblance of revenge for Jack and it didn’t hurt that they were all still legitimately on the job.

Alex Vaughn noticed a telephone booth on his right as his thoughts rambled on and a sudden urge came over him. He stepped into the booth and pulled some coins from his pocket. Vaughn dialed the familiar number and waited as the phone rang. As it rang, he thought of Jack. On the day of Alex’s wedding, Jack took Alex aside.

“Alex, how do you feel about Charlotte?” His face was serious.

“What do you mean?” Alex was startled by the question.

“Right now, right this second, what does she mean to you? Alex, it’s not rocket science.”

Alex composed himself. Thinking about it for half a moment, he knew exactly how he felt.

“I think she is my world. I can’t remember a time before her and I don’t think I want to think of a time without her.”

“Good.” Jack liked the answer. “Now, no matter what happens in life, no matter what things get in the way, try and bottle how you feel right now, right this second.
