I want you to stay

Käti's P.O.V. 

I froze as his soft lips smashed into mine, I was frozen in shock as he put his hand at the back of my head making sure I didn't pull away. I decided to keep still and wait for him to stop instead of try and push him away, which would just end in fail. I was too weak to do anything right now. 

Andrew pulled back when he realized I wasn't responding.

"What the fuck" he growled making me frown back in confusion. "Why didn't you kiss me back?"

"Because I didn't want to Drew, You can;t just kiss people and expect them to like it." I grumbled wiping my mouth with the back of my hand. 

Andrew looked at me shocked. "You have a lot of nerve rejecting me like that right now." I rolled my eyes and slowly rose to my feet. Walking around him with my towels I grabbed some dry clothes from my drawers. 

"Don;t role your eyes at me. It's fucking annoying." he hissed, abruptly standing and walking over to me. 

I turned, tilting my head back to look at him in the eyes. 

"What are you going to do about it? Hit me?" I whispered, his eyes narrowed and his jaw clenched but I knew he wouldn't. "You're not that much of an asshole." 

A smirk tugged on the corner of his lips as he leaned forward, his arms spread on either side of me and his hands holding onto the edge of the wood drawers. "What If I am?"

"You would never hurt me" I muttered as he tilted his head to the side, his eyes searching for some kind of emotion that showed that I truly believed what I had said. 

"What makes you believe that?" He chuckled. I blinked...maybe I was wrong. An idea flashed into my mind...I hesitated at the thought that maybe I was wrong...maybe he was the monster that everyone feared. After all...he was a cleaner. He did the dirty jobs...I just did assassinations. Clean...but he did the things I would have nightmares about. I hadn't seen him since I'd been a recruit...maybe he had changed. There was only way to find out...

I raised my open palm and before he could react I slapped him hard across the face. 

Drew's jaw clenched and his eyes showed anger I had never seen before. I bit down on my bottom lip as I watched him turn around abruptly  so now his back was facing me, he was trying to control his anger. 

I could see his muscles tense under his black shirt. 

Relief washed over me, I knew he wouldn't hurt me. If he were ever to hurt me...it would have been now. 

I hesitated not knowing what to do now. I could tell he was starting to calm down but I didn't want to hear what he'd have to say. So I picked up my clothes and walked to the bathroom to get changed. The whole time I could feel Drew's stare burning into my back. 

I closed the door silently and breathed deeply. Suddenly everything that had been upsetting me came flooding back....it had disapeered with Drew. And suddenly I wanted him back next to me...

I changed into the shorts and oversized top that I'd grabbed and opened the door. Drew was on the phone whispering. "Is it urgent?....Fine, fuck I'm coming now." 

"Where are you going?" I asked as he put his phone back into his pocket. 

"Business stuff....I'll be back soon." He sighed before walking out of my room. I thought of responding and telling him that this was my house not his...and he should go back to his because I didn't want him here....but I didn't. I knew deep down I wanted him back here...I wasn't entirely sure why. I should hate him...I should want him gone....more gone than James. I shouldn' let him boss around and come and go like it was his house. 

I slowly walked over to my window to see that the rain was still pouring down. I watched as Drew walked out of the building and got on his moterbike. Sighing I walked over to my bed and lay down...not wanting to think about everything and just wanting to forget it all I closed my eyes and fell asleep. 

Andrew's P.O.V.

As I walked into the abandoned building in downtown Chicago, I saw Garrett, Carson and Alice sitting on the couches. "What's so urgent that it couldn't be said over the phone?" 

Alice stood up. "We have a new problem...The target has made contact with an old russian spy....we think they may be planning something. We shouldn;'t go ahead with anything until we know what they're planning." 

I nodded. "Yeah...that's a good idea. Look into it. Find out what it is...get back to me. Is that it?" 

Alice nodded. "Just about....except he also made contact with Agent Ryder." I looked up, stunned. ":What?" Alice shrugged. 

"Apparently he's her grandfather..." I shook my head. THis was going to interesting. Garrett suddenly got up from where he'd been leaning over the computer. 

"New orders....we are supposed to suspend the target...and go after his Russian contact instead. Apparently they are waiting to see what happens with Ryder and Pytor. Also...there's a German opperative we need to be on the lookout for." Garrett finished handing me a picture he;d just printed out and new assignments. 

I glanced at the picture...I knew that agent. He was old Cold war...."I thought this man was dead." 

Garrett nodded. "Yeah so did we...Apparently he's been underground. But he's back. Blackbriar is afraid he's back for revenge. Already three of our agents had died or gone missing...all of the had to do with the Harrow-Berlin assignment."

"Harrow-Berlin....Ryder was a part of that." I said frowning. 

"Right,...that's what Harold said. That's part of your new assignment. They're pretty sure he;s goin to go after Ryder, so just keep an eye on her." Garrett sighed. 

I nodded. :I better be going lads, let me know if you hear more. Later". I frowned as I got onto my moterbike. This was bad news...if a old cold war opperative was back for revenge....then Käti was in more danger than she knew. 

I wanted Käti to like me...I never really cared whether someone liked me or not until it came to her. When she rejected me I was hurt, I would only admit that to myself and never out loud. I wasn't used to rejection....or to people slapping me. Because usually people were too scared to do that. I admit...I may have deserved it. I never realized how much I hurt her in Blackbriar....she had always acted ok...but then. She was the best liar I knew. 

I got back to her apartment and took a deep breath before walking in. The door was unlocked...I walked into her room to find Käti curled up in a small ball under the white sheets, the only part uncovered was her head and long dark hair covering the white pillows. 

She looked beautiful. But I could never tell her that.

Käti's P.O.V.

I was half asleep but I heard him close the door and lay down next to me. I felt Drew wrap his arms around my waist and pull me closer as he rested his forehead on mine. I felt his hot breath on my face as he whispered "I'm sorry Käti. For all of it..." 

I was stunned. I never thought I'd hear him apoligize for what he'd done at Blackbriar when I was a recruit....the way he'd broken my heart....the way he'd left...what he'd done to Jensen. But then...I wasn't supposed to hear it....I was supposed to be asleep. 

My thoughts were interupted by Drew softly pressing his lips to mine, and this time...I kissed him back.
