IN THE LONG RUN (BOOK 2 OF BAR BLUES!)

Chapter 28: The chef...

Melody's Pov:
His house is laid out to perfection every square inch is colour co-ordinated and decorated to fit the aroma of each room. It's beautiful. I am mesmerised by the black and white decorations of the bathroom that highlights the view of The Effiel Tower.

The bathtub is vintage with smooth metal poles decorated with the shapes of flowers holding it in place. The walls are tiled with black and white tiles that reflect the light shinning in vividly making it easy to feel at ease when relaxing.

Curiously, I inspect the images pinned to the wall. One of the road below, one of Johnson and his family I believe and one of a river. All filtered to black and white, I take note of how each one is spaced with the exact same amount of room. The door is white with tinted windows blocking the view of people walking by.

I gently step out of the bathroom and inspect the other rooms to see if he is in there. Empty.  Quietly, I make my way down the stairs and hide myself behind the nearest cupboard. The downstairs alike the up is decorated flawlessly however with more use of bright colours.

As I begin to make my way to the kitchen I hear a noise from beside me. My eyes turn to find a small door hidden beneath an outline of a cupboard. Watching my footing I carefully pull away the cupboard and make my way down the stairs.

'Ms Rose I have been waiting for you please come in' his voice is gentle.

'How do you know who I am?'

'Ms Rose I track everything in my house there are cameras everywhere and I can quite easily analyse your face to find out who you are' he chuckles.

'Fair enough' I make my way down the stair case and lean against the wooden pillar holding up the sealing.

'I aspect your here to kill me?' He asks with no hesitation or inkling of fear.

'Well it appears so'

'Alright get it over with' he turns and I see his face for the first time. There is no sign of worry just relaxation.

'You seem to cool with this?'

'Well Ms Rose people have been trying to kill me since the minute I was born I'm ready to go. I have completed everything I needed to' he shrugs.

I am lost for words and I have no idea why. Nothing was explained this man could be murdered for just living and I'd have no clue.

'I can't I'm sorry' I pull the gun down but keep it at easy access just in case he decides to turn on me. 'I have no clue why they want you dead and I'm done with living like this, I wanna be happy'

'Fair enough Ms Rose but I can explain it to you if you want?' He gestures for me to take a seat on the sofa beside his desk.

I follow him and sit directly opposite.

'When I was born I didn't know but I was born into a war between countries . Mine and America. They like to keep it under raps but the people involved know for well the extent of it' he shakes like his trying to remove a thought.

'Why did people try to kill you?'

'Because I was the child of the leader of our side. They wanted me dead and still do to weaken him but he doesn't care. I'm just a way to ends meet for him'

'Explain please'

'Every person I kill or hire helps him so my life means nothing but profit. Your bosses have been asked to kill me by most probably my own Father as his probably done with me now' there is nothing but calm to his voice, he is being targeted by his own Father but it's like a normal Saturday.

'Why not run and get away?'

'It's easier to stay as otherwise they would just find me and make it harder. Look just kill me it would be best for the both of us'

I re position my gun and shoot him. Two in the chest and one in the head. The man with nothing but living for profit dead. I sigh and make my way back to Jerry.

End of convo!:)

My heart warmed at seeing Blue, he always made me feel loved. I drove onto his driveway carefully watching for his cat. Peter. It's a cute little thing with black and white fur. Bit chubby.

I pull out my keys and unlock the door stepping into a house full with the smell of spices.

'Honey I'm home' I yell.

He runs over pulling me into a tight hug and giving me a longing kiss before running back into the kitchen.

'How was the trip?' He shouts as I hear noises begin to fizzle up.

'Great thank you went really well!'

'Ahh glad you had a good time bub!' He replies poking his head round the corner.

Once I have placed my coat down I make myself comfortable at the table. It's decorated with candles and dishes eager for food.

His black curly hair dangling round his face as he rushes in with plates full of food. Spaghetti Bolognese our favourite. His emerald green eyes follow my gaze to the food and smile proudly at his work. Blue is a slim man with boy like features that have had my heart since day one. His personality dragged me deep under.

'Bon appetite' he places the dish in front of me as I take a big wiff of meat.

'Looks and smells amazing' I gush.

'Let's hope it taste nice too' he jokes.

I place my hand on top of his and gently squeeze as I take my first bite. The pasta and meat ooze in my mouth spreading a comforting warmth throughout.

'Gorgeous' I moan.

He smile happily before tucking in himself.

'I think you could become the best chef in the world' I grin.

He pulls up a napkin and gently wipes sauce from the sides of my cheeks giggling.

'One does hope'

'Truly' I nudge 'The new restaurant your going to work at is going to love you!' I smile comfortingly.

'Thank you gorgeous'

'Welcome bub'

Hope you enjoyed that chapter we finally properly got to meet Blue.

What do you think of him? His a chef.
