"Ah boss, PJ and Maggie
are back from getting the lunches," called Nick from his desk. "Good, just
the people I wanted to see," said Tom coming out of his office.
"What?" Maggie asked
in a worried one. "Have a seat," said Tom pointing to two chairs near Maggie's
desk. Ok, then," said PJ putting down the lunches and going
to sit down. "Now you
two know the heroin case, well of course you know it you're investigating
it…" "Yeah, yeah, get on with it," PJ interrupted. "Well you two are
being taken off the
case, and you're going on leave." "What?" said Maggie. "Sorry boss, you
can't do that," added PJ. "Now, hang on, you didn't let me finish, that
is
what you're going to
tell people. Because we all discussed it and we decided that to nail this
case we'll need some undercover work." "So what does that have to do
with us," asked Maggie.
"Well we came up with the idea of newlyweds staying in Mt Thomas." "And
we all decided that you two would make the best couple," said
Dash. "But they know
who we are," said PJ. "That my friend is where the old undercover work
comes in," said Nick. "Yeah, we're getting a make-up artist in
tomorrow to do your
make-over," laughed Adam. "But boss…." Maggie started. "Ah ah ah, I am
no longer your boss. You are now Mrs Susan Blainey, you young
man are Gavin Blainey,
you over from Ireland on you're honeymoon, and you're staying in the Imperial
before continuing on your tour throughout Australia!" "Sounds
like you've got this
all figured out," said PJ. "Yeah, and you're not to tell anyone about this,
not even Chris, and you always have to call each other by your new
names, because you never
know when someone might be listening. "Ok, we mightt as well give it our
best shot," replied Maggie.
"Ah, Maggs, sorry, Susan,
can I see you in my…PJ's office for a sec." "Sure," replied Maggie. As
she went in and shut the door behind her. "Here, you'll need one
of these if you're working
undercover," he said handing her a gun holster (for around her ankle).
"PJ, I've never seen this one before, it's got gold clasps with PJ
engraved on it, where'd
you get it?" "My parents gave it to me when I graduated from the academy,
and you see the rest of those clasps, if I have a child that
becomes a cop, their
name gets engraved on one." "That's so sweet, but why are you letting me
use it, I can get on from the gun cupboard." "Because it's your first
time undercover, and
it will bring you good luck!"
**The Next day, PJ, Maggie
and Tom are at Maggie and Dash's house**
***Ding Dong***
As Maggie answers the
door a strange face greets her. "Hi, I'm Constable Gail Waters from Melbourne
"Um, come in," replied Maggie. "Gail, hi, what are you doing
here, I haven't seen
you in ages," PJ said with a friendly yet sleazy smile. Maggie saw this
and shot him a 'don't even think about it' look. "I'm here to give you
a
make-over for your investigation."
"Well, I'll leave you lot to it. Good luck," said Tom walking out the front
door. "So, you two are newlyweds are you?" Gail asked.
"Yeah, in a round about
sort of way," answered PJ. "Hey Gail, what exactly are you going to do
to us?" asked Maggie. "Well, Sargent Croyden told me what sort of
people you had to be,
and he sent me photos of the two of you so that I'd know what to bring.
I decided that, I'll dye your hair, give you colored contacts, put a lot
of foundation on you,
and give you some new clothes." "And for PJ," added Maggie. "The same,
but we mightt add a moustache," said Gail. "Ah nuh, there is no
way in the world your
putting dye in my hair," PJ protested. "Don't worry, it will rinse out
with a few washes," laughed Gail.
***3 Hours***
"There, finished," Gail
said in a proud voice. "Oh my god, look at me," PJ said, "I've got brown
eyes, red hair, a moustache, and look at these clothes!" "You'll live,"
said Maggie. "I mean,
I hardly look myself either with green eyes, brown hair an olive complexion,
and wearing this dressy suit!" "Well all you need to do now is
practice your Irish
accents," teased Gail. "Well, Maggie I'll leave all the make-up with, so
you're in charge of decorating Gavin over there everyday. That's my good
deed done. I'd better
get going." Once Maggie and PJ had packed all their new clothes into cases,
and got some of their personal belongings together, then they
went down to the station.
"Good morning, officer,
may I speak to your Sargent," said PJ in his best accent. "Yeah, hang on
a sec….. Boss," called Adam. "Mr.…" "Gavin Blainey," added PJ.
"What?" asked Adam as
he turned around to face the young couple. "Oh my god, look at you," said
Dash. "Yes, Gail did an excellent job," agreed Tom as he came
out of his office. "Yeah,
we even got rings," added Maggie as she showed Dash the ring. "You two
have to get your guns, and sign for them for about a week, until
this investigation is
over, oh and Doyle, you can get a holster from the gun cupboard." "No need,"
said Maggie getting out her gun, pulling up her trouser leg and
putting it in the one
PJ had already given her. Before leaving the station they got the general
plan to catch the Brudgo brothers, (Todd, Mark and Jeff), they had to
follow them whilst trying
to look like tourists. "You can take the station camera," said Tom. "Hey,
where's Shultzy?" asked PJ. "He's gone to get the lunches," replied
Dash. "Oh good, come
on Susan, let's go check into the Imperial shall we," he said pulling Maggie
along with him.
***The Imperial***
"Good evening madam,
we had a booking for the honeymoon, suite under the name Blainey," PJ said
to Chris. As soon as Nick heard the name Blainey he turned
around and looked at
PJ and Maggie who had their arms around each other. Maggie saw Nick and
winked at him and smiled back at her with a confused look on
his face. "So, how long
are you staying for?" asked Chris. "Probably about a week, maybe a bit
more, maybe a bit less," replied Maggie in her best Irish accent.
After that Chris to
Maggie and PJ (Gavin and Susan) up to the honeymoon suite, where they unpacked
and called the station for details on where the Brudgo
brothers were. Once
they got the details that they were in the center of town, they got in
the car, (one organised for this case), and drove into town.
After about twenty minutes
of looking around (whilst casually shopping) Gavin and Susan spotted them
and followed them. They ended up in the park where the
three brothers sat on
the side of the water fountain waiting for someone. As the people they
were waiting for arrived Maggie went and stood next to the fountain, and
PJ pretend to be taking
a photo of her when he was actually taking one of the suspects. It ended
up that they were having a picnic in the park. "Great, now what are
we going to do, we can't
just sit here and look at them, they might get a bit sus." "Well, we're
newlyweds, what are we supposed to do when we're alone together,"
said PJ with a cheeky
grin on his face. "Now Gavin, are you thinking what I'm thinking," she
said gently touching his face. As she moved forward to kiss him he said,
"I love you." At this
precise moment Nick and Adam were patrolling the park, and when they saw
the Brudgo brothers, they knew Gavin and Susan would be close
by. When they turned
around, they saw Gavin (PJ) with Susan (Maggie) lying on top of him, kissing.
***Back at the station***
"Have a nice relaxing
time on patrol boys, while the rest of us are working away," said Dash
as she saw Adam and Nick walking in. "Yes actually, we had a stroll
through the park, where
we saw Mr and Mrs Blainey working hard." "What do you mean?" asked Dash.
"Put it this way, if making out in the middle of the park is
working hard, just point
me in the right direction!" laughed Nick. "Making out hey," said Tom coming
out of his office with a smile on his face. "Sounds to me like
they were just trying
to be good newlyweds Boss," said Dash knowing how PJ and Maggie felt for
each other. "Yes, I'm sure they were," said Tom thinking it was
about time they got
together.
***That night at the
Imperial***
"Good evening Constable,"
said PJ in his Irish accent. "G'day mate, hey how did you know I'm a copper,"
Nick asked. "We saw you on patrol in the park today,"
replied Maggie. "Come
to think of it, I think I saw you two," he said with a cheeky grin. "So,
you're from Ireland are you," Nick added. "Yea, we're from Galway
over in the west, and
we decide to come over to Australia for our honeymoon," answered PJ. "A
nice romantic holiday hey," Nick laughed. "Well yeah, actually
speaking of romantic,
Mrs Riley, you wouldn't happen to have any strawberries would you?" asked
PJ. "Yeah, as a matter of fact I do, and please call me Chris,"
she replied. "Great,
we'll have a bottle of Champaign, and two punnets of strawberries thanks
Chris," said PJ. As Chris went to get it she turned around, and said,
"Oh, Gavin, what Champaign
will that be?" "Top shelf thanks," replied PJ. "Well, Gavin, mate, I'd
better let you go," said Nick walking back to the other Heelers
with their drinks.
"What's happening," asked
Dash as soon as Nick reached the table. "Well, Mr and Mrs Blainey just
got two punnets of strawberries and a bottle of the best
champaign Chris has."
"Gee, I wonder what's going to happen in there tonight," teased Adam.
***Back to PJ and Maggie***
"Here you go," said Chris
handing him the strawberries and Champaign. "Thanks Chris, just put it
on our bill will you," said PJ. When they got upstairs PJ handed
Maggie the goodies while
he opened the door to their room, and they went in. As soon as they were
in Maggie went and flopped on the bed while PJ opened the
Champaign. "When he'd
poured two glasses, he gave them to Maggie to hold while he put the bottle
on the table, opened the strawberries and sat down next to her.
They sat in silence
just eating and drinking, then Maggie turned to PJ and said, "Today in
the park when you said I love you, were you talking to me or Susan?" PJ
put his hand on her
face and replied, "You Maggie Doyle, I love you." "Good," she replied as
she leaned over to kiss him. Halfway through the kiss PJ pulled back
and said, "Here want
one," as he picked up a strawberry and put it in her mouth. As she bit
into it, she felt her eyes linger close, and when she opened them she saw
PJ drinking some Champaign,
so she joined him. Once again she felt her eyes linger close, and she felt
PJ kiss her on the cheek. Suddenly, she burst out laughing,
and at the same time
she spat Champaign all over him. "Ah, what was that for he said. "Sorry,
your moustache tickled me, and it made me laugh." "You know
something Maggs," he
said pulling of the moustache, taking her glass off her and pulling her
so close to him that her legs were wrapped around his waist. "The first
day I met you, you spat
vodka all over me, and since then I've been in love with you." He looked
deeply into her eyes, and once again they started to passionately
kiss. "Ow," said PJ
pulling away from Maggie. "What," she replied. "I felt your leg going up
mine, then the butt of you gun hit me in the shin." "Sorry, I totally forgot
about that," she said
sitting up. As she was taking it off PJ said to her, take mine off as well,
so I don't do the same to you." "There, that better," she said taking off
the guns and putting
them on the table, and going back to lye on top of PJ. "Perfect," he replied.
"You know what, from the minute the Boss told us about this
investigation, I knew
that we'd have to share a bed, but I thought you'd be worried about that."
"Not at all," she replied undoing his shirt and kissing his tanned chest.
"Obviously not," he
replied turning off the bedside lamp, leaving only dimmed lights on.
The next morning Maggie
woke up before PJ, so as she was lying in his arms, she looked at him,
watching him sleep, and thinking that this time she wouldn't let him
slip away. "Hey gorgeous,"
he said as he woke up and saw Maggie lying next to him. "Hey, how'd you
sleep?" she asked. "Great, apart from when I woke up in the
middle of the night
and had a heart attack seeing you, as Susan." "Speaking of that, come on,
get up, so that you can go for a shower before I do, and we have to
hurry, because we still
have to put all the make-up on." "Well I guess, we're just going to have
to compromise on the shower then, instead of going separately, we'll
have to go together.
It will save time, trust me." "Do you really think so do you?" said Maggie
laughing, and following him into the bathroom, (the only room with
ensuite). After a shower,
make-up and breakfast, PJ and Maggie got the run down on where the Brudgo
brothers were, and they went out to investigate.
After a whole day of
following them around and finding nothing, PJ and Maggie went back to the
Imperial for dinner and drinks. "Hello again Constable," said PJ
seeing Nick. "Gavin,
isn't it, and your lovely wife Susan." "That's correct," replied Maggie.
"Do you live here?" asked PJ. "No, why do you ask that." "It's just that
you're here every night."
"You see those people over there," said Nick pointing to the rest of the
Heelers, "They're my colleagues, we come here every night after
work, for a drink."
"Oh I see… Well nice to meet you again Mr….?" "Shultz, Nick Shultz," Nick
added. "Well, as I say Nick, nice to meet you, and I hope to see
you again sometime,
said PJ standing up to shake his hand. "Yeah, you too mate," replied Nick
watching PJ and Maggie walk off with their arms around each other
and big smiles on their
faces'.
When they got back up
to their room Maggie went and got changed into her nighty and PJ sat on
the bed in his boxers watching TV. "What's on," she asked coming
out and seeing PJ watching
TV. "Nothing much," he replied looking up and seeing Maggie. "Why, Maggs,
don't we look stunning tonight." She went and sat down
next to him and he turned
to her and said, "You know something Doyley, I never thought we'd be like
this, yeah sure I dreamed about it, but I never thought it would
actually happen." "Neither
did I," she agreed, "And you know the funny thing about this is that it's
thanks to all those great coppers down stairs," she added. "The last
time I spent the night
with you, well other than last night, was in the mine, and well….." "Hey,
don't worry, that's not going to happen this time, I love you too much
to say no!" she said
leaning over to kiss him.
The next morning, they
did the same as the morning before, had breakfast, showered, put on make-up,
and rang the station for whereabouts of the Brudgo brothers.
When they found them,
they followed them, but today they were led to somewhere different, the
building where the major heroin deals took place.
As they drove behind
the suspects, Maggie rang the station on the mobile, to update them on
where they were. When they arrived at the building they stopped on
the opposite side of
the road and watched the three men enter the building. Once they were inside
PJ and Maggie followed them in and found that there was a big
laboratory where all
the heroin as well as some speed was being produced. PJ and Maggie went
back outside, and called for back up. As well as that, the took
some more photos of
the car the Brudgo brothers arrived in, as well as some of anyone who went
in or out of the building. Within the hour the rest of the Heelers
had arrived as well
as some extras from St Davids. PJ and Maggie gave them the run down on
how many people there were, and where they were situated. The
police surrounded the
building, and went through all the different doors at the same time. As
they went in they all called out "Police don't move," and they pointed
their guns and batons
at all the people inside. One by one all the dealers, makers, users and
suppliers were all packed into the vans, some were taken to Mt Thomas
while most of them were
taken to St Davids and released on bail. But as for Todd, Mark and Jeff
Brudgo, by 3:30pm that afternoon, they had all been charged and
locked in the cells
until the prison squad came to get them the next day. When everything was
sorted out Tom called PJ and Maggie into his office. "I want to
congratulate you two
on the great job, you make a good couple, and you're especially good at
fooling people. But as of now Mr and Mrs Blainey are gone, and PJ
and Maggie are back,
and I want you two to check out of the Imperial right away, oh yeah, you
can take the rest of the day off." "Thanks Boss," they replied as they
walked out of his office.
"Maggs, can I see you
in my office for a sec?" PJ asked. "Yeah sure," she replied as she followed
him in and closed the door behind her. "Well, I guess this is it," she
said sitting on the
side of his desk. "I really loved being married to you, I love you." "I
love you too," she said with a smile. "Hey I guess you want this back,"
she said
taking the gun holster
off her ankle and handing it to him. "Oh yeah, thanks," he said taking
it. "Well, I guess we'd better go check out of the Imperial," Maggie said
turning to walk out.
"Um yeah, I've got some stuff to do here first, so I'll meet you there."
"Ok, see ya," she replied. As soon as she'd gone PJ grabbed the gun
holster, jumped in his
car and drove to the jewelers.
"G'day Ian," PJ said
as he walked into the shop. "Hi, PJ, what brings you here?" he said in
a friendly voice. "Hey, how did you know it was me, I'm in disguise?" "I
can just tell, by your
voice, plus you look a bit like you normally do." "Anyway, I was just wondering
if you could engrave this for me," he said handing him the gun
holster. "Where exactly
do you want me to engrave something on it?" Ian asked as he picked it up.
"See that little clasp there with 'PJ' engraved on it, would you be
able to do the one underneath
it, but put 'Maggie' on it." "Yeah sure, I'll just be a minute," he said
turning around to a small machine. As he was doing it PJ began
looking around, but
stopped when he got to the ring cabinet. He looked in and saw a ring that
he knew Maggie would love. As he looked at it he thought about how
much he loved her, and
hoe much she loved him. As Ian turned back around PJ said to him, "Um can
I please have a look at that ring." "Sure," replied Ian. PJ
looked at it closely
and said with a big smile, "I'll take it thanks mate." "May I ask who it's
for," Ian asked as he put it in a small box. "The same person you just
engraved the holster
for." "Oh, good, I like Maggie," he replied. "Good luck," he added as PJ
paid for the ring and the engraving, and walked out. On the way back
to the Imperial, he
stopped off and bought some chocolates, and when he got there he asked
Chris for some Campaign (still in his accent) and went upstairs to
Maggie. "Helloooo,"
he said as he walked in. "Yeah, I'm in here," called Maggie from the bedroom.
"Hi gorgeous," he said walking up behind her and kissing her on
the cheek. "Allow,"
she said turning to face him. "What's all this," she said pointing to the
Champaign, chocolates and gun holster. "Well," he said putting down the
chocolates and Champaign,
and handing her the gun holster. "Have a look for yourself." "Why," she
asked. "Fine, look I'll tell you, see here where it's engraved with
'PJ', what does the
one underneath it say." "Oh, PJ, you engraved it with Maggie, but why,
I thought this was for your kid." "Well, I'm giving it to you, and I decide
that when our kid becomes
a cop you give it to them." "PJ what are you trying to say," she asked.
"Look inside, where the gun normally goes, and all your questions
will be answered," he
said with a smile. Maggie looked inside and pulled out the small box, and
opened it. "PJ, it's so beautiful," she exclaimed. He took the box
from her hands got down
on one knee and said, Margaret Doyle, I've loved you for four long years,
from the moment I saw you on the highway I've had feelings for
you, will you marry
me?" "Yes, yes I will PJ, I love you too!!!" she said as PJ slipped the
ring on her finger and stood up to kiss her. Then they opened the
Champaign, ate some
chocolates, and made love.
Meanwhile downstairs
Dash, Nick and Adam arrived for some drinks. "Hey Chris, where's PJ and
Maggie?" asked Adam. "I hate to tell you mate, they're on
holiday remember?" said
Chris. "Didn't they tell you?" added Nick. "Tell me what?" "Remember Mr
and Mrs Blainey, the Irish couple," said Dash. "Well that was PJ
and Maggie undercover,"
she added. "You're joking, that's… oh my gosh, they looked so different.
"So where are they?" asked Nick. "Well Mr Blai…. I mean PJ.
Just came in and bought
some Champaign, and he had chocolates in his hand, then he just went upstairs
to their room." "So what room are they in," asked Adam.
"1b, the honeymoon suite,"
answered Chris. "Let's go pay them a visit shall we," said Nick. "No, leave
them alone, they're probably just packing," replied Dash.
"Yeah, sure, anyway,
I'm going upstairs to get changed," said Adam heading for the stairs. When
he came back he ran straight to the table where Dash, Tom and
Nick were sitting. "Guess
what, I just walked past PJ and Maggie's room, and they had a DO NOT DISTURB
sign up," he said laughing. "Ooh, go Maggs!"
laughed Dash. "What
are you lot talking about?" asked Tom. Nick, Adam and Dash filled him in
on what was happening, and he replied with, well, it's about time
those two got their
acts together.
About twenty minutes
later PJ and Maggie came downstairs, looking like their usual selves (except
for their hair), no make-up, no contacts, weird clothes or
moustaches, just their
usual selves. As they went and sat down at the table where the others were
sitting they got a round of applause. "Thank you, thank you," said
PJ sitting down. "So
what were you two just up to?"
asked Dash. "Just
packing up some of our things," replied Maggie. "Oh yeah, then why was
there a DO NOT DISTURB sign up on your door?" Adam said with a
cheeky grin. "Well we
were…" Maggie stopped him by suddenly leaning over and passionately kissing
him. As she pulled away she whispered in his ear, "Tell them."
PJ looked at his friends
and said, "Maggs and I are getting married. "What?" said Dash. "Look,"
said Maggie showing her the ring. "Oh my gosh Maggs, it's
beautiful!" Dash said.
Maggie looked at Tom with a worried expression and said "Well," "Congratulations,
I was just saying it's about time you two got your acts
together." "Few," said
Maggie. "Well Miss Doyle, every things perfect," said PJ looking into her
eyes. "I love you PJ." "I love you too Maggs," he said once again
kissing her.
