The assasin

Chapter 16

I nearly lost footing in the heels i decided to wear for the after party ,but I wasn't moved.
I decided to wear something red

Amaris pocked her head through the door "be quick would ya"she shouted as she went to take a shower.
She was nolonger going because her dress got "accidentally stained"
She helped me to the car and slammed the door before going to the drivers seat .
"So after dropping me where are you heading ?" I asked . "To a club" she shrugged. "In sweats?"I asked.
"I'm just going there for the alcohol honestly" she replied and I nodded .
When we arrived she helped me down ,she wished me good luck and went her way.
"I was beginning to think you weren't going to show up "Damon said before taking my hand.
I just shrugged and walked with him.
"Don isn't here" he added.
"Where is he?" I asked.
"We don't know "he said.
Shit, he was the reason I came.
Damon and I parted ways .
Isis came over and updated me about everything that happened when I was gone .
I asked her about Don's whereabouts and she didn't know too .
I looked for my phone and tried tracking his but I couldn't find him ,when I was about to give up it appeared.
I ran to their garage and picked a matte black sports car.
I zoomed through their gates without even caring about the speed limits .
It was so dark ,I wondered what he was doing near the lake on the other side of the city.
When I got there I searched for him but I  couldn't find him ,I swore that his phone was here ,with that I saw it on the ground .
I picked it up and looked around , I sighed in defeated before looking at it again, he was taking pictures of the surroundings.
I never took him for a photographer type ,I guess he was high.
I saw a picture of a high building across the lake.
It was one of the five star hotels with the best
views ,I sighed and got into the car and drove  there using the pedestrian bridge that went across the lake ,when I went over, it collapsed behind .
I hadn't realised that I was crying before a tearing hit the screen of his phone.
I stopped the car and literally jumped out leaving it in between the flower garden .
I passed the receptionist who furiously called me but stopped to call security, before  I got to the stairs I removed my heels they were killing me.
I started climbing then I realised the elevator and got in ,it felt so slow ,I felt as is it would be better for me to use the stairs again.
The elevator stopped and I continued the rest of the journey using the stairs .
I sighed when I got to the top floor door.
I pushed it and I was met by a horrifying scene before me the place was thrashed and Don sat on the edge rocking back and forth , I ran for him and pulled him back.
I cradled him in my arms ,he refused to open his eyes saying it was a dream.
I scoffed and when my tears fell on his face he opened his eyes .
"Impossible " he whispered and with that he jumped to his feet .
I stood up slowly.
"Suprise"i gave him a weak smile and wiped
my tears.
I then remembered what he was about to do and took a step forward and slaped him very hard.
I pulled at his collar "What were you about to do?!"
"Mel I was tired of living, if you had come any later I would've been dead ,but seeing you instilled a purpose for me to live. I would do about anything for you even if it meant dying ,I guess Luca already told you about what happened. " he said and I nodded.
The wind blew against us as I looked at the guy who would take his own life for me.

Love is a drug ,isn't it.

I took his hand in mine and at that very moment the gaurd barged in .
" what took you so long " I said.
When they saw Donovan they apologised and left.
I squeezed his hand and pulled him down with me, to the car.
"This is my favourite car"he said looking down at me.
"Mine too" I replied as I started the engine.
"You can have it "he said shyly.
I giggled and shook my head "its yours "I said.
I parked the car in the garage, Don got out of the car so fast wanting to open the door for me but I was already outside, he then grabbed my hand and walked me into the house squeezing it from time to time as if I would disappear .
I guessed everyone went to bed because all the lights were off .
When we reached the room he gestured for the bed "I don't have anything to sleep in and besides i want to shower first so you can go in without me"
I still remembered this place so I went to the bathroom. Right after I started my shower
I felt a presence behind me ,I quickly turned and found Don behind me .
I smiled as I stared at him.
He took the loofah and began to bathe me after that he bathed himself.
As he did all this I only stared at him. I noticed that his hair was a bit longer it suited him actually.
He stopped the shower and stepped out giving me a fluffy drying towel and his t shirt and boxer shorts and exited the bathroom.

I found him already in bed and climbed beside him, coming to think of it I'd never slept in his bed and this is the first time.
I felt safe somehow and found myself falling into a deep sleep.
