After we arrived in the garage, I went to where I left my coat and shoes and put them on. I glanced at V as he walked past me towards one of the cars, probably his own. He opened the trunk, putting away the umbrella he carried with him. He closed the trunk again and turned around, facing me.

I bit my lip nervously as I walked closer to him. I can't believe I'm actually doing this. He licked his lips as he removed the scarf from around his neck, glancing down at me. "Turn around.." he demanded in a cold voice, almost sending shivers down my spine. Almost. I crossed my arms in front of my chest as I put my weight on one leg.

"And you think I would do that and listen to your orders because..?" I asked, trying to turn the tables from earlier. Instead he just snorted while he looked at me in amusement. A sly smirk made it's way on his lips as he took a step forward, forcing me to take a step back.

"How about the more you do what I say, the quicker you'll get rid of me.." he asked with an innocent smile. He had a point. I pressed my lips together before I let out a sigh. He seemed to take that as a sign of consent and took another step forward, holding up his scarf slightly.

"Couldn't you have at least picked a fresh washed scarf?" I asked in a sigh as I looked at the scarf in his hands. It is probably smelly. Dirty like a thief. He even wore it before! Why would he do that?! "No." is all he said without moving a muscle in his face.

He stopped right in front of me to look down on me "It matches with my outfit.." he explained with a shrug. "And now, turn around." he added in a demanding voice. I rolled my eyes and held out my hand towards him "I can put it on myself.." I said.

He just stared at me, coldly, still showing no emotion "That's cute. Now turn around." he said again. I squinted my eyes at him, annoyed. Was he fucking kidding me? "I said that I can do this myself!" I repeated in a snap.

"Well, and I said turn around and yet we're both still just standing here." he shot back, bored. I clenched my hand into a fist. Was it allowed to punch him? Would I get in trouble for it?

"Why should I trust you and turn around?" I grumbled back, making him shrug. "Why should I trust you to put on the scarf correctly, without cheating?" he asked back, making me groan in annoyance.

There was no point in discussing about it. I rolled my eyes at him and sighed "Can we at least use the scarf that's probably still in Jhope's car?" I asked, knowing that his was at least clean. I stretched slightly, trying to look over his broad shoulders to search for his car.

V raised an eyebrow at me before he chuckled amused, shaking his head "You mean the car they drove off with?" he asked. I shook my head and pointed my finger to Jhope's car behind his back. "No, the car that's standing right there." I said, adverting my eyes back to him.

"I don't see a car.." he shrugged, keeping his eyes on me. "Well, then turn around.." I said, rolling my eyes. A sly smirk made it's way onto his lips before he quickly hid it, tilting his head.

"Why should I trust you and turn around?" he whined, mimicking me. I closed my eyes, letting out a deep breath to try to calm me down. Funny how a while ago I was sure I would never be able to commit murder.

I should have taken my own scarf with me. But not even in my backpack was something I could use as a blindfold. I opened my eyes again, looking into his innocently smiling face.

I let out another heavy sigh before I hesitantly turned my back to him, too annoyed to continue this discussion. Just get home, get the clothes, to the shop, back home and I'd get rid of him. For today.

I wasn't comfortable with him standing behind me. And getting blindfolded. Not able to see him at all, wasn't helpful either. I didn't know what he could be doing to me. But even if it would just be a look, I'd rather have in my sight, knowing what he was doing.
