Twisted

Chapter 35: Preparation

Gall shook me awake the next morning.

"Five more minutes!" I groaned.

"Come on Pipsqueak, we already slept in." He said and rolled onto his back, a hand behind his head.

I curled up tighter, hiding my head under the covers with a small moan and whimper. Gally pulled the cover down, a frown on his sleepy face.

"What's up?"

Instead of answering I just scootched closer to him and climbed on top of him laying my head on his chest, listening to his steady heart beat. I heard him humm. His free hand went to my head, and started running it through my messy morning hair.

"We're going to be okay." He said quietly.

"Really? 'Cause this plan has a lot of loop holes and a lot riding on a chick who has no issues betraying us."

"I know. But we will bust them all out, get Minho back and the serum Hans needs. We will be okay."

I picked my head up and looked at him. Even though his words were encouraging and his voice was steady, his eyes gave away how nervous her really was.

"There are a lot of things that can go wrong...this is...him...were talking about."

I couldn't even say his name. I was willingly walking back into that monster's claws. I shivered. Gally's arm tightened, his other hand wrapped around me and pulled me higher, so now my head was in the crook of his neck.

"Is there any point in asking you to stay?" He asked quietly.

"No." I snapped and sat up, glaring at him. "I may be terrified of him...but I'm not letting everyone I love walk into danger while I sit back and watch."

He reached up and tucked some hair behind my ear, with a crooked grin.

"And that's another reason I love you."

"'Cause...?" I asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Well...what's not to love? You're wild, and crazy, and you do the hard things even though you're terrified. You're a little bit sweet and a little bit savage. You're a bit broken but that's when I get to see the vulnerable side. You have a never ending love for others..."

I leaned forwards, gently kissing him, "You should keep talking, tell me some more sweet nothings." I whispered against his lips.

"Hmm...you're cute and chaotic."

I hummed and leaned forwards and kissed him quick.

"You can go from sweet and innocent to a feral murderous creature.."

I kissed him again. His hand slid down my back, and stayed on my lower back, his other one buried into my hair. His intense eyes kept mine glued to his.

"You look at me like you're gonna tell me a sweet story or jump me and I'm good with either...." He growled.

The hand buried in my hair pulled me closer, his hand on my lower back slid even lower and grabbed my ass and held me against him while he kissed me like it might be our last. And it just might, we were getting ready to walk willingly into a maximum security building to bust out some highly valuable WICKED assets. I kissed him like it was our first kiss and last kiss.

We had gathered into the same room as last night. We were going over the plans again, we were getting all the details ready, making sure uniforms fit, guns were ready and all the small details. The anxiety in the room was high. This was the big day. We would either fail together or succeed. There was a lot to go over again, making sure Sarg and Laurance were also ready.
