If this took place in a game, what game would they be? 

-

After a few minutes he let me go of his grip. "Who will take over the case?" Ash asked even though he probably knows it.

"The spotter I was with," I tell him and he signs "I hate that guy so much he's too boring" he groans to me and I chuckle at his unbothered comment.

"Do you know why I like you?" He asks me while my heart skips a beat. I shake my head no. After these months I still don't know why. He always looks like he enjoys the game. But I do too.

His annoying grin on his face was amusing to see and his stupid eyes were always looking at me like I'm no threat. I like the way he is simple yet so complicated.

Even with a gun to his face Ash would smile at me just to show he wins even in the afterlife.

He knows he will haunt me forever. Even when he is gone he knows that his face will follow me around and haunt me in my dreams. Forever.

"I like playing this game with you" he says and tilts his head sideways. "What game?" I ask him. "You're fun to mess with. I can see all your thoughts right here" he says coming closer to me and making a gun sign with his hands and putting it against my forehead.

I stay still and let it all happen. "You're fun" he says one more time letting his grin fade away from his face. He puts his hand back and lets it rest on the side of his body.

"I like this game too" I say not showing any emotions in my face. "Why don't we continue it?" Ash asks me and looks at me with wondering eyes.

"My boss would personally kill me if he finds out," I tell him. My boss made it loud and clear, if I go against him he will not be pleased with me. He might even kill me.

He promised he won't make it a long and slow death but fast and quick because of the honor I have given him.

"Mhmmm... I'll go to your boss and personally ask to have you back" he says like it's just a casual service we have. I scoff at him and he steps to the kitchen.

"Do you want water?" He asks me. "Only if it's poisoned" I tell him and follow him. I lean against the open door between the living room and the kitchen.

"I wouldn't poison it. It would be a boring death, " he says and i sign. If only he knew what i was doing to give him a rightful death.

"So you're not going to kill me now?" I ask and while looking around the room scanning for maybe something. Maybe something that i had missed. But there was nothing except a few newspapers with his face plastered on it and an empty coffew cup next to it.

"It would be a boring death, right?" He asks me like i am a child who wouldn't know the awsner. "It would be" i shrugged my shoulders. "But dead is dead" i wisper.

"What?" He asks me "mhm nothing" i say. I know that in his twisted mind that he would kill me off, i would convince him just enough. I know that he had done it before.

"Ash" i say, his name tasting in on my lips. "Yeah?" He asks and holds 2 cups of water. "I dont like you" i say outloud.

He shrufs his shoulders. "I figured that after everything" he says flashing a smile and quickly letting it fade.

He knows what he did. He knows why he did it. And so do i. I know why i dont have a sister right now, and I know why he won't apologize for it. I dont expect him to anyway.
