***ARI POV***
Sammy and I were both arrested by the military and thrown in jail. I knew Jo heard it all and she was probably a mess not knowing what was going on. All I could think about was getting out of here and back to her. I left her, this was probably giving her flashbacks from when Sammy left her on the beach. I needed to get back.
"We're going to get out of here. It's gonna be okay." I said while pacing in the cell and Sammy sat on the side looking at the dried blood on his hands from the Seal that had been hit that he tried to save. A guard came walking by and I rushed up to the cell door.
"Hey, hey, excuse me! Excuse me! I need to talk to your commander. Hey!" I yelled but he kept walking and left. "Fucking asshole." I grumbled walking away from the cell door.
"You're the asshole, Ari." Sammy spoke up.
"What?" I asked.
"I had been telling you to cancel tonight's operation, I told you. I told you. It was too dangerous." Sammy said. He and I had been having private conversations about this mission for a week and he kept wanting to cancel but I knew we had to do it.
"You don't get to make that call." I said annoyed.
"No, I don't get to make that call, only you get to make that call." Sammy said smugly.
"Is there something you want to say?" I asked getting more annoyed.
"Why did you bring me down here? You act like we're best friends, but you never listen to a word I say. Is it pity because of what I went through last time?" Sammy asked and I groaned.
"Yeah, it was pity. You happy? Now shut up. We'll get out of here if we stay calm." I said leaning on the wall by the cell door.
"They're gonna find out who we are. They're gonna go to the hotel, if they're not there already and they're gonna kill every single one of them, Max, Jake, Rachel and Jordan...the one who isn't supposed to even be alive." Sammy said.
"Hey! Stop using real names. You don't know who's listening." I said rushing up to him. "And don't mention Jordan." I said getting in Sammy's face.
"You think this kind of work is romantic? It's not romantic, it's practical. There's a protocol. You can't just make shit up, like fake marriages, as you go along and hope for the best." Sammy said.
"I know that. What we do is dangerous. People get hurt sometimes and other times we do what we can to save them like I'm doing with Jo. She was hurt first by you, now I'm trying to fix it." I said.
"Always come back to that. Me leaving her! I didn't have a choice, I had to go." Sammy said.
"And save your own ass." I mumbled.
"It all stems back to her but this is about you and me. Always against each other when it comes to her! I fucked up and I know that but the minute we find out she is alive you just swooped in! She fell for it, and I have to watch as the woman I STILL love, the woman I STILL care and have feelings for falls in love with my so-called best friend! I fucked all of this up and now I have to pay the price and lose her to you forever. I always lose everything to you Ari!" Sammy yelled.
"You lost her on your own Sammy. You're with Kelsie now. You moved on...or was her sister just a sloppy second's replacement? Something you could fuck that reminded you of Jo?" I asked.
"You know what it doesn't fucking matter because they're gonna torture us and we're gonna die in here. Then what? We both are going to lose her! All because your ego won't accept any help from anybody else. It always has to be your way!" Sammy yelled. Sammy walked away. "I keep following you around like an idiot on all these missions. I'm so stupid." Sammy said. He kept repeating I'm so stupid over and over. He finally just yelled out of frustration.
"Hey, hey, hey, stop, stop, you're gonna get us killed. Don't -..." Before I could say anything, else Sammy punched me in my jaw knocking me off balance. Then he punched me in my gut. After that it was an all-out fight between Sammy and me.

***JORDAN POV***
I woke up the next morning and could bare weight on my leg just my limp was a little bit more prominent. I walked out to the main area, and I saw Rachel sitting with Max and Jake.
"Hey, any word?" I asked sitting down once Max pulled a chair out for me.
"No, I was thinking of going into the city and trying to talk to the man we bought the resort from. He is pretty close with high up ranking officials and he might be able to help." Rachel said.
"When do we leave?" I asked.
"What? You're not going." Rachel said.
"Like hell I'm not. Ari is my boyfriend and Guy is my husband. How would it look if his wife doesn't go get him?" I said and Jake half nodded as did Max.
"She had a point. She can take her new fake passport he got and go with you." Max said.
"Can your leg handle it?" Rachel asked.
"Sammy got me a cane with my crutches yesterday. I will use it." I said and she sighed.
"We leave in 15, go get ready." She said and I walked to my room to get dressed. I looked down at my wedding band on my finger.
"I'm coming Ari." I said, grabbed my cane and walked out of the bedroom.

Rachel and I had a little issue getting into the city and getting to see Colonel Madibbo, the man who they dealt with to get the resort from. Even after showing our identification, we weren't allowed passage, but Rachel and I knew we could sneak in to see him. We were doing fine until we were chased at the entrance to his office by guards. Rachel was tackled to the ground, and I was thrown against the wall.
Colonel Madibbo came out to see what the commotion was outside his office. Rachel introduced herself and he remembered her instantly.
"This is Guy Thomas' wife, Dove Thomas, she has joined us at the resort." Rachel said and introducing us, and I smiled shaking his hand once I was released.
"Is everything alright?" He asked looking at Rachel and me.
"I believe there was some kind of mistake. Liam and my husband were out scouting for places for night dives last night when they were attacked and arrested." I explained and Colonel Madibbo just looked at me and sighed.
"Come in my office let's see what we can do." He said.

Soon we were walking down to the jail cells getting Ari and Sammy out. Ari and Sammy were soon escorted by out by two guards, and I rushed up to Ari and he placed his hands on my hips, and I passionately kissed him.
"What are you doing here?" Ari whispered as we broke apart.
"I had to make sure you were okay." I said and then gently cupped his face seeing it all beaten up. I wasn't the only one who noticed.
"Who did this to you?" Colonel Madibbo asked Ari. Then he started speaking Amharic to the guards around them.
"No, no, no, that's...it's no, they didn't...we did this, to each other." Ari said and I looked between him and Sammy.
"What do you mean?" Colonel Madibbo asked confused.
"We don't get along." Sammy said dryly. Ari had his arm around my waist letting me lean on him. I just groaned and rolled my eyes. Colonel Madibbo started laughing thinking Sammy was joking so we all laughed with him to keep it going.
"You're free to go. You may go." Colonel Madibbo said, and I we smiled as we went to walk out.
"Shukraan." Rachel said thank you in his language out of a sigh of respect. I was walking out with Sammy and Ari.
"We're talking about this when we get back." I mumbled pissed off.
"Dove..."
"Don't!" I said annoyed as we all walked to the car.
