Secretly Alive

Her pov

I woke up ready to start my plan. Today was going to be a fun day. It may not include killing someone, but I'm visiting my dear old friend Aidan before I go to work. I work at a local law firm as the CEO's secretary, not because i need the money but because i need a cover for my real job. I already did my searching and found in which police station he was working at. To my surprise he worked at the station nearby. What a coincidence...

At first, I thought I could just learn about the case he is on, my case, get ahead of him and never let him catch me. Then, an evil plan popped in my mind. Instead of just getting information about his moves, I could play with him. Make him suffer a little before I kill him.

After I had my late breakfast, I decided to start getting ready. I wore a simple grey dress suit and drove to the station.

I saw the building at the end of the road. Soon, his shift would start and I would be able to let the fun begin. I parcked, got out of my car and stood in the shadows till he showed up. And then there he was, looking anxious getting out of his car. It's my time to shine.

I opened the zipper of my bag and started speed walking towards him. Without looking at him even for a second, I threw myself literally on him .

"Oh, I'm so sorry, I didn't see you." I said, acting, bending down to grab my bag and things that had fallen out of it.

"Don't worry, it's okay. Let me help you. You look like you're in a hurry" He said while grabbing my phone and lipgloss.

"Thanks. I actually am in a hurry. I'm late for work, I was supposed to be there 10 minutes ago." I stood straight up, even though my wallet was still on the ground. I had changed my ID with a fake one so that he wouldn't recognize my name. For him, my name was Cassie Monroe.

"You work around here? I haven't seen you before." He said with a charming smile, trying to impress me, I guess. Only if he knew..

"Yeah, I work at Mr. Gordon's office, I'm his secretary. I would like to stay and chat, but I will probably get fired if I be more late than I already am. See you around ." I literally ran till I was in my office. I had actually come early despite the fact that i said otherwise to him. I needed an excuse to get close . Now all I had to do was wait for him to come to me.

~~~~~~~~~~

My shift was nearly over when I heard the entrance door open. I lifted my head up and Aidan was standing there looking for me, my wallet in his hand. When his eyes fell on me, he smiled and I did the same, trying to act surprised. With all this acting, I should get an Oscar one day.

"Hey mysterious lady, you left your wallet behind. When I saw it on the ground, you were already out of my sight." That was the point, darling..

"Really? I thought i took it. Thank you, again." I said laughing, standing up, getting my bag from the desk behind me, ready to leave.

"So apparently you are Cassie.." he said while looking at my fake ID in my wallet."I'm Aidan. Aidan Foster and I work down the street at the police station."

"You are an officer.. interesting. You certainly don't look like one." I walked in front of him, taking my wallet off his hand, putting it inside my bag.

"Well, I'm not, I'm actually an FBI private agent. Or detective, whichever you prefer." He said, stroking his light brown hair out of his forehead, following me while I walked out of the building. The sound of my heels echoed at the silence of the night as he followed me towards my car. When we were in front of it, I thought it was time to shoot my shot.

"So detective, are you planning on asking me out any time soon, or do I have to wait longer standing in these heels?" I looked in his big green eyes acting all innocent... actually, I was trying not to puke, but whatever, what I felt didn't matter.

"I was planning to do it sooner or later, I just wanted to know for sure you were going to be interested. But since you asked me to ask you out , tomorrow at 8 o'clock works for you?"

"Pick me up from work, detective." I faked a smile, winked and got in my car, starting the engine to drive back home.
