The six of them enjoyed white sand on the beach, and the calm water of the ocean.
"This is really nice! When your house is finished, we can co here every weekend!" JoAnna exclaid while sitting next to Jeff who was lying on the sand. She was trying to bury him up in the sand, and he didn't object. He would just slightly shift his body occasionally, making the sand fall off from his body, and JoAnna pretended not to notice. They could do this all day.
"I'm happy you like it." Sarah laughed seeing JoAnna acting all silly with Jeff.
"When will you show us that secret entrance?", Jeff asked while trying to avoid being buried alive by JoAnna who increased her pace of throwing sand at him.
Sarah looked at Aiden and smiled, "No better ti than now!"
Aiden and Sarah led the way toward well-hidden opening between two large rocks. As they got inside, narrow tunnel was expanding with every step they took until it beca large cave. Sand on the floor was replaced with rocks, and they were in front of a deep pond. Sun rays ca in from the gaps in the wall and hit the water surface which reflected light on the ceiling.
Sarah and Aiden jumped in the water. "Co!", they called in unison and then looked at each other giggling that they said the sa thing at the sa ti.
They went under a rock and resurfaced on other side. The light was coming from under the rock, reflecting on the ceiling which was smooth, colored with layers of darker and lighter rock.
When all six of them resurfaced, they swam on the opposite side, and got out of water. As they walked through the cave, the surrounding was getting darker with each step. Sarah reached for the wall and found a switch. She flipped it, and LED lights lit up the ceiling revealing a large cave.
"We are now right below the house." Aiden explained and pointed at the large trap door on the ceiling between stalactites.
"That was the door we opened from basent?" JoAnna asked.
Aiden and Sarah nodded in confirmation.
"Very impressive", Jeff comnted. "What will you do with this space?"
"We still don't know." Sarah responded, and then faced Aiden, "Aiden here thinks we should make it a bat cave with a bat-mobile and bat-submarine and other bat-gadgets." She laughed.
"I'm not sure about the bat cave, but it can be a secret underground central.", Sophia said.
They all faced her, expecting her to continue.
"I was thinking for so ti... we are working together very well. We can form a team. Each of us has at least one unique ability, and when we are together, I think there is nothing we can't do. My strengths are planning and legal issues. My Felix here is expert in electronics and wireless technology. JoAnna has expertise in dicine and is a great marksman. Jeff is a business wizard with strong connections around the globe. Sarah and Aiden are both computer geniuses and know how to kick ass. I'm sure that I missed so areas for each of us, but these are just main points."
Sophia glanced at everyone and was pleased to see that they seem to like the idea. She continued explaining. "Especially after last adventure where each of us played an active role, I think that we should form a team... We removed so bad guys off the streets and earned a lot of money in the process. I don't think it can get better than that."
Sophia looked around the cave. "We can have several hidden centrals like this around the globe and use them when needed." She looked at the five people who were all listening intently as she spoke. "Think about it."
They all nodded, agreeing with what she said and committing to give it so thought. Actually, all of them thought it was a great idea, but no one wanted to agree to it without discussing it first with their significant other.
…
For dinner they had barbeque. Felix volunteered to be the grill master, and Sophia helped him out by passing him things he needed and giving him company, while other four relaxed on chaises.
Sarah observed that Sophia is not doing much, other than sticking close to Felix and kissing him. She decided to have so fun and tease Sophia. "Hey, big sis! Leave the cook alone, or our dinner will burn!"
Sophia frowned, "You leave alone, or no dinner for you!"
"Felix, you are not having an easy life with my big sis, are you?" Sarah continued teasing.
"I'm honored that she is with ." Felix responded, his amorous gaze landed on Sophia.
Sophia mockingly grimaced at Sarah.
Sarah rolled her eyes. "You two are too much!"
Aiden told himself for who knows which ti that all three of them are acting very childish when they are together.
They all laughed.
"He is taking good care of our sister. Don't tease them.", JoAnna chid in.
That reminded Sarah and she looked at Felix and Sophia. "Talk about sisters, you went to et with Bridgette last night, how did that go?" Sarah didn't know that she hit a nerve. Last night Sophia and Felix ca late, and after that they didn't talk about their visit to Bridgette's place.
Felix didn't respond. His body stiffened, and he took few deep breaths before relaxing.
Sophia gave a 'why did you ask?' look to Sarah and answered instead of Felix. "It was OK. She is a nice young lady. We hope to et her for diner tomorrow after we co back."
"Nice! We can all join!" Sarah suggested, looking forward to spending so ti with her good friend Bridgette.
No one objected, so it was assud that six of them will have dinner with Bridgette and Steve on Sunday evening. The only thing is that Bridgette still didn't respond to Felix's first ssage, so he didn't even ask her if she can join for dinner next day.
Felix sighed internally.
