Eternal Rose

Benji

"You look wonderful Dom. Now go in there and get your man." Amira winked and blew a kiss at me then started her car. I laughed at her and slammed the car door shut as she drove away. I glance up at the restaurant name, 'La Grenouille', yep...this sure is the place. Walking inside the building, I notice my guy, of course he's in the VIP area. Why are they always in the VIP area? Now I have to convince this bouncer to let me in, this makes my job so easy, note the sarcasm.

I make my way to the very important persons area and am prepared to pounce on this bouncer, making him regret bouncing ever in his life but before that could happen, my dear old Benjamin stepped in to assist me. "She's with me." his voice reminded me of velcro.

The oh-so handsome bouncer nodded and stepped to the side for me. I smiled and nodded at him and held my snarky unearned comments inside me. "Follow me sweetheart." Ben took my hand and guided me through a series of private rooms. Looks like we're in a pretty secluded part of the club. Good.

"Benji, why are we so far away from everyone?" I seductively stared at him, "Are you scared?" Ben and I entered the last room, he locked the door, and angrily turned to me with his fists balled up with testosterone filled rage. He quickly pulled his fist to my hand, I could tell he wasn't gonna do anything, Ben's too much of a pussy, he just wanted to scare me. Instead he changed his fist into a loose hand and caressed my cheek, his thumb landing on my bottom lip.

"You know how I am with that sweetie. I cant have the public be knowin I do this. They don't understand how my relationships work. You need to learn to keep your voice down, babe." He sighs and slowly puts his other hand on my hip. I hold my look of disgust inside of me and barely contain myself as this man touches me. "No one understands me but you." He leans in to kiss me, I try to back away but he moved his grip to the back of my head. I mildly push him away but he insists on kissing me. I bite his lip as he does so, getting him to yell back in pain.

"What the fuck Ben?" I spit out any trace of his cigarette breath.

"What the fuck ME? What the fuck YOU bitch. I've been buying you expensive clothes, vacations, spa days for you and your friend. And where is my payment? Just give me what I want." He starts slowly walking towards me, his eyes changing for real this time.

I sigh in annoyance. "I didn't know this would come so soon Benji. I would've gotten some more money out of you..." I pull out the knife from my boot and throw it at his neck. lol. "Julie Cullen? Heard of her? I'm pretty sure she's your wife, Ben. She hired me with your own money to kill you..." I pause and look at him struggling to breathe, on the floor. "...she found out about your second computer, Ben. You have a family...what the fuck?" I stare at his body losing life.

I enjoy my job.

————————

I toss the rag for my bloody shoes in my little evidence purse and look around one last time. Spotless. Except for the dead body. But that's just a statement. I walk out of the restaurant and look for my ride.

*beep beep*

I grin. I run over to the car and jump into the passengers side. "So how was your date?" I bite my lip and twirl my hair. She smiles awkwardly, "okay...and then what?". I snorted and rolled my eyes.

"I may have skipped a few dates before the big finale." I bat my eyelashes at her. "But look hey, look, I clean it all up. No evidence. No mess." I show her my cute little clean up kit.

She looks at me and rolls her eyes, looking back to the road. "You couldn't stand him for a few more dates?" I shake my head no. She laughs. "So...the details???". She looks at me expectantly.

So of course, I tell her everything.
