Lab Rats: True Love

Chapter Nighty-Nine: Space Elevator

Luna's Pov

Me and the others were in the common area, either working or just talking.

Soon dad walked in and looked at all of us.

"Heads up, we got a visitor coming" Dad said.

Adam gasped as he walked towards dad.

"Is it a government agent, coming to take us away?" Adam asked in worry.

We all gave him weird looks as Chase sighed in exasperation.

"Our secrets been out for a year. Why would they take us away now?" Chase asked.

"Let's just say, I've done some things" Adam said.

"Do I even want to know what he means by that?" Alexis asked while turning to me.

"No, no you don't" I sighed.

Chase chuckled and nodded as he wrapped an arm around my waist.

"It's my chief scientist, Dr. Ryan. He is by far the smartest man I have ever worked with" Dad grinned.

Oh yeah, I know Dr. Ryan.

He sometimes babysat me whenever dad had to leave town for business trips.

Really nice guy, weird, but really nice and funny too.

Chase glared at dad and pointedly cleared his throat.

"Ahem!" Chase yelled at him.

Dad turned to look at him and nodded in realization.

"Oh, you are right. I'm sorry. I am the smartest man I have ever worked with" Dad grinned.

Chase glared at him more, while I sighed and shook my head.

"Dr. Ryan was head of his class at MIT. And he's been Davenport Industries' employee of the month twice! That's never happened" Dad explained.

"Wait for it" I whispered to Alexis and Bree.

"Well, except, of course for me" Dad smirked.

"Told you" I whispered again, causing both girls to giggle.

"You named yourself employee of the month at your own company?" Leo asked.

Dad grinned and nodded. 

"I think you love you a little too much" Nick said.

"No kidding" Alexis scoffed.

"It's not because I love myself. It's because I'm better than everyone else" Dad smirked.

I glared at him and smacked him upside the head.

He winced and glared at me while rolling his eyes.

Soon the hydraloop comes up and the doors open.

Dr. Ryan then steps out and walks over to us with a huge smile on his face.

"Hey, hey! Wassup, dudes" Dr. Ryan grinned, looking at the boys.

Then he looked at me, Alexis and Bree and nodded.

"Lady dudes" Dr. Ryan nodded.

I sighed and shook my head but smiled either way.

"Good to see you again Dr. Ryan" I smiled.

"Good to see you too kiddo" Dr. Ryan smiled.

He walked up to me and gave me a side hug, one that I returned.

When we pulled away he ruffled my hair, making me glare at him as I smacked his hand away.

"And employee of the month. Got the parking space and everything. I don't drive, but my mom uses it when she picks me up. That's right, twenty-eight, still living rent-free in my parent's basement" Dr. Ryan said.
