Erik made it very clear that he would never let me out of his eye sight during the mission. He had a friend, who was apparently a woman, he borrowed the private jet from. The way she looked at him and flirted made me knew they probably had history.
"So...who is this one?" I asked looking down at my nails. He chuckled.
"No it's not what you're thinking. She likes me but she ain't my type. I kept it at a friendship level," he replied. I nodded. During the course of the flight, my thoughts were everywhere. Knowing that Raymond and Kelly, Kelly especially, was trying to kill us all this while and we didn't even knew it. Erik touched my shoulder as he walked next to my seat. "You hungry?" He asked. I nodded and he left. When we landed, Michael handed me a jacket. I took it quickly and smiled at him. There were black SUVs parked by the steps waiting for us. We got in and drove off.
"What's the plan?" I asked.
"Got a coordinate for where she will be and kill her. Simple," he said resting his hand on my thy. I stared at him blankly. "That's it?" I questioned. He shrugged.
"You don't worry your pretty little head about it ok? I got this," he said grabbing my hand. The ride was long and I was feeling a bit nauseous. When we got to the hotel, I went straight for the bed. I was very tired. Erik walked to the window staring at whatever it was. I got up at stood next to him.
"She's literally in the building in front of us," he said. I shook my head and he looked at me. I looked at him then left.

Was he going to let me watch as he murders my friend and her child?
"I don't want to be here when you do it," I said. I slid the curtains together, closing it.
"You don't have much of a choice princess," he said walking towards me. "As soon as all of this is over, we gotta look for homes and this time, start over," he said sitting next to me.
"Homes? That's more than one," I said. He nodded.
"Baby I love you...I really do," he said as he took my hand. "But I need to be able to trust you," he said getting up. "When I found out you were fucking my brother in my fucking house! I wanted to kill the both of you. Slit both your throats but I talked to God about it," he said chuckling a bit. "I asked myself over and over, why am I not good enough for you Jill?!" He yelled. I was helpless. All I did was look at him feeling sorry for my selfishness.
"Erik, I know what I did was wrong and foolish but you are everything I need and more. Everything in me changed the day you asked me to marry you," I admitted getting up, walking closer to him. "And I'm sorry for putting you through it," I apologized. I grabbed his face. I started feeling nauseous again. "You ok?" He asked. I shook my head and ran to the nearest sink I could find to puke. Everything I ate came right back up. Erik rubbed my back and pulled my hair out the way. "Naw princess, I'm calling a doctor or something," he said but I shook my head.
