Mitch Rapp POV

Watching her leave I scavenge about looking for something to do but to my luck there is nothing and I can't exactly decide yet because I'm being left in the dark.

Walking into the living room I see another door, and head over opening the door I see that it was indeed a balcony with two chairs facing the night sky

Sitting down I grab my wallet sliding the picture of me and Katerina out.

Gosh, it's going to be two years since the accident. If someone told me that I'd be working with the CIA I would never believe you, instead I would tell you that I married the most beautiful woman, my best friend, and the love of my life, Katerina.

Hearing footsteps, I glance over my shoulder to see Skyler making her way over.

"Who's that?" She asks, leaning in the door frame, looking down at the picture in my hands

"No one." I state, placing the picture back in and slipping my wallet in my pocket

"Whatever you say ice queen...my apologies for the way I acted before." She says occupying the chair next opposite me.

"Was that your way of saying sorry?" I looked at her in amusement

"I'll have the couch." She huffed, getting up to leave

Quickly standing at the same time I grabbed her arm before she left, looking down into her eyes "you're forgiven" I said, letting her slide her hand away.

"You do that a lot don't you...grabbing my arm, do you do that to everyone or am I just special?"

"Only you, just because you like to walk off and not listen"

Yh totally not because You like her.

Me?

Yes.

You are me?

Well fuck, I'm going crazy.

"Maybe I should do it to you then, you never listen to anyone's order." Instead of walking back inside she sits on the other chair opposite me.

"True." I say not taking notice of the small smile making its appearance on my face

"Soooo you wanna tell your story of what happened to the beautiful girl in the picture? Or..."

"It was meant to be the best day of my life..." I whispered before telling the story of my downfall.

I remember it like it was yesterday.

"Here we are in beautiful Ibiza, Spain. Beautiful sand. Beautiful waves" the camera then turned to Katerina who was playing about in the water "And my favorite girl who is about to..." I couldn't finish as the waves overtake her, causing her trouble to stand "oh, my god!" I laughed

Katerina looked up to her boyfriend Mitch who was stood with a goofy grin plastered on his face "Hey!" She yelled, she started to walk over to him and tried to reach for the camera "come on, give it to me"

"No! Stop! Come on!" Mitch laughed, teasingly pushing her away.

"Mitch!" She protested, not happy at him filming everything all the time

"This is great!" He grinned

"I'm serious." She pouted

"Oh. Oh, my god. That is so cute. Honey, this is like... let me film for just a couple minutes."

"Its like we're honeymooners." Mitch said still pointing the camera at her, while she let her body float in the water "Oh, my god!" She smiled "honeymooners?" She asked
