I woke up and stretched my tired limbs. I had trained yesterday for hours on end. Today's Monday, work day. I groaned and drug myself to the shower.
I showered then brushed my teethed. I pulled on some skinny jeans, black vans, and a light blue T-shirt. I blow dried and straightened my hair then ran down the stairs. I stopped by Mrs.Loppins room. I knocked.
Silence.
I went into the kitchen and phones her cell phone. I didn't have one, didn't need it.
She picked up after the 3rd ring with a shaky," Hello?"
"Mrs.Loppins? You didn't wake me up, what's wrong?"
"J-James was attacked, b-by the L-love As-.." She broke off crying. I mumbled soothing words to her," I'll look after the diner today, you stay with James today, okay?"
I heard her mumble an 'ok' then hung up. I put the house phone back on its hook then walked into the hall and locked her door after I was out.
I walked lazily down to the small diner. I walked in and put on a little purple apron.
I went to the back and greeted our chef, Amy.
She's like the mother I never really had the chance to experience.
I hugged her around the waist then went to taking orders and laying them on the counter for Amy to read later.
It was around 3 when Mrs.Loppins made an appearance. Her eyes looked worn and tired.
She put her apron on and went to help Amy in the kitchen. James strolled in a few minutes later. He looked dark and menacing, probably because if my mark, knowing he'd gotten close and failed.
I laughed quietly at my own mischief and went to serve him. "Hi my name is Arabella, how can I help you today?"
"Can I get a steak with mash potatoes and coke." It was more of an order then a question. I took it anyways and placed the order on the counter.
And just like every town has, there's that one bitch you just want to hit so hard that they might die, and you wouldn't care.
Bre and her groupies walked into the diner. They sometimes came her just to tease me. I knew them from school.
Didn't I tell you? Oh wait, my bad. I'm 18 years old.
"Hey look, it's the loser bitch from school. Tell me nerd, how's life with your parents? Oh wait, they're dead." She laughed coldly.
I growled, my hand longed to hold the cool metal of my knife and kill her, but I restrained.
'Not the target. Not the target.' I repeated in my head.
I turned away from them and served everyone their meals.
I looked back to James and saw Bre, running her manicured fingers across his chest.
To say he looked uncomfortable would put it lightly. I chuckled then scribbled a note on a price of paper.
I walked as unnoticeably by his table and picked the check up along with his credit card.
I slid it into the machine then taped the note to the back of it. I handed it back then walked off, looking at him from the corner of my eye.

I went to put the credit card away, but I felt the smooth surface of tape. I pushed the slutty girl off of me.
I went outside and looked at the back of the credit card.
A note was taped to it.
I unpeeled it from the plastic surface and read it.
'Love Assassins got you again.'
I got mad, my corporation told me they had gotten close, I knew that from the scar of a heart I now had on my arm. But this was twice they had slipped threw my fingers.
Not again, I will find the leader of Love Assassins.
