That day the pair did what they needed to do. Marie didn't like the idea still of hiding. But then again she wasn't also the person to out a lot. Mitch was kind of the same. The pair had a lot in common. Which is why they could pull off the married part.

Marie laid her head on Mitch's lap as they watched tv together. She was loving the closeness of the two of them. Mitch was also liking it. His feelings for her was starting to feel more than they should. He loved spending time with her. Marie closed her eyes as again he gently played with her hair.
Mitch moved and laid down behind Marie on the sofa. He gently put his arm around her waist. As she moved her back into his chest. He held her close to him as they both carried on watching tv.
Marie suddenly jumped as her phone started buzzing. She looked down to see she had a message from her daughter.

Sarah❤️:
Hi mum. R u ok? X

Mum ❤️:
I'm fine hun.  Everything ok your end? X

Sarah❤️:
Yeah was wondering if I could come round later. X

Mum❤️:
Yeah of course. Xx

Marie looked at Mitch.
"Going to have to tell her about you. Just in case". Marie said.
"Ok. You think she will be ok about it?" Mitch said.
"She should be. If we explain to her the situation. And make sure she knows to keep herself safe until it's all sorted". Marie said.
"Ok cool". Mitch said. He didn't want anyone close to Marie getting hurt.

The two spoke for a while. When Marie heard her front door open and shut.
"Mum". The voice said.
"In the living room". Marie said.
The person walked into the living room and smiled at her mum. Her eyes widen when she saw Mitch setting next to her.
"Wow, who the hell is he?" Sarah said widening her eyes. Looking at the pair of them.
"Easy Sarah, Mitch this is Sarah, Sarah this is Mitch". Marie said. She walked over and sat down looking at him.
"Wow, he's bloody gorgeous. Where you get him from?" Sarah said. Making Marie laugh a bit.
"We need to tell you something". Marie said. Sarah listened to Mitch while he explained the situation.
"Wow. So your an assassin and your having to protect my mum". Sarah said.
"Yes". Mitch said.
"How come we have never meet him?" Sarah said.
"Because I haven't until recently. My mum never said much about him. And now I'm having to have protection because of his job". Marie said.
"Wow. So you two have to act married. Isnt that hard to do?" Sarah said.
"No, not really. At first yes. But now no". Marie said.
"So you all do all things married couples do?" Sarah said. Raising her eyebrows at them.
"Well no not everything". Marie said. Hoping not to have to go into even more detail. Sarah looked at her mum and then Mitch.
"Wow. So there is non of that then. Just kissing?" Sarah said.
"Yes just kissing". Marie said.
"But don't you get asked a lot of questions on your married life?" She said.
"Yes and no. We just tell them to mine there own business". Mitch said.
"Oh ok. Fair enough". Sarah said.
"Sweetie. Don't say anything ok. And also keep an eye open ok. Anyone follows you or asks you questions about me. Don't say anything ok. Let me know". Marie said.
"Ok I will. But seriously. How do you manage to keep your hands off him". Sarah said.
Marie rolled her eyes at her. Mitch couldn't help but laugh a bit. He had a feeling this would happen.
"Sarah it's like I don't know. Something we haven't gone there with". Marie said.
"And what about you know who? How does he feel about this arrangement?" Sarah said.
"Well it was his idea, but he get a bit annoyed when Irene says about things like you do. I think she likes winding him up". Mitch said.
"Yeah I'm sure she does. She's the only one who has told him to back off a bit. And reminding him this was his idea". Marie said.
"So will I ever meet them?" Sarah said.
Marie and Mitch looked at each other.
"Well I don't see why not. I'm going to have to tell him about you all. For protection I didn't so you wasn't on any other there files. But I can tell them and arrange something". Marie said.
"Yeah do that. I mean he is related to me as well". Sarah said.
Marie nodded. As Sarah carried on talking. Mostly about Her mums and Mitch is marriage.
"So that means no brothers or sisters, then?" Sarah said. Making both of them choke on there drinks.
Marie just giggled and shook her head. Making Sarah laugh.
The idea of the two of them being together like that had crossed his mind. But he would never do anything she wasn't comfortable with.
And Marie was feeling the same as well about Mitch. But again wasn't the kind of person to do anything like that out of fear.

Mitch watched Marie, soon it was time for Sarah to go.
"You be careful ok?" Marie said.
"I know mum, don't worry ok. I will text you if anything ok". Sarah said.
"I know". Marie said hugging her daughter.
"Bye Mitch see you again soon". Sarah said. Giving him a hug.
"Be good". Sarah said. Before leaving and closing the door behind her.
"I am so sorry about that. I didn't think she would spend the evening winding us up about that". Marie said.
"It's ok. She's a teenager. I would be worried if she didn't". Mitch said.
"True. I'm glad she knows in a way. You don't think these people will go after them do you?" Marie said.
"There not on any of our paper work. And even if we do tell him, we can make it clear there details is to be kept off". Mitch said.
Marie smiled and moved to him. Placing her head on his shoulder. He moved his arms wrapping them around her.
She looked at the time. Noticing how late is was.
"Shall we go to bed". Marie said.
"Yes let's. You go to bed, I will lock up". Mitch said.
"You sure?" Marie said. Looking up at him. He smiled and kissed her forehead. Marie closed her eyes at the feel of his lips.
They both got up. Marie turning everything off and going to bed. Mitch making sure every thing was locked.
Marie laid in bed, touching her forehead. Yes they had kissed before. But not since a lot since being there. Mitch got in by her side. And she moved to him. For some reason she felt safe in his arms. Which Mitch picked up on and wrapped them around her. Laying her head on his chest. Listening to his heartbeat. He held her close to him.
The silence wasn't uncomfortable for them. It was nice and peaceful. Just the two of them. Falling a sleep together.
