Käti's P.O.V.
I smiled as I felt James's arm across my waist and his warm breath on my neck made me feel all warm and tingly. Pulling my sheets closer in I snuggled farthur into his embrace.
I frowned....since when did hotels have purple sheets? I looked down. Wait....everything suddenly came flashiong back. I gasped and jumped quickly out of the bed. That wasn't James....that was Carter. My kidnapper.
The one...I had just fallen asleep next too....what was going on with emotions lately? I mean for real...last night I was running from him, yelling at him, and then I was kissing him and then yelling again, and then crying...and then falling asleep with him. ....There was something seriously wrong with me.
I sighed and ran my fingers thru my hair. Much as I hated to admit it....I was helpless right now. I couldn't kill Carter because he was the only person around...and I wanted to know why I was here. I was sure it wasn't just some random whim of his.
Looking at Carter I breathed a sigh of relief. He was out...I couldn't deal with him talking right now so that was good. Tip-toeing over to the closet I pulled some clothes out the bags....apparently this friend of his thought I'd like girly dresses....
Which I admit...they were gorgeous. But I didn't wear dresses like these often...just for missions. Or when I wanted something. A litle part of me was kinda glad that I would get to wear them. But I dismissed it quickly.
I walked to bathroom and took my time taking a long hot shower. When I finally did get dressed I couldn't help but admire the light green dress. It's flowy skirt was a bit shorter than knee-length and the top was a v-neck with buttons and thin straps. I threw a grey sweater over my shoulders...had to look like the old me in some way.
I opened the door carefully. Undoubtadley Carter was up now...and I didn't want him to startle me. I was a trained assasin after all. Nothing should scare me....right? Looking around my room I realized he wasn't in there. I breathed a sigh of relief and walked out throwing my towel over the edge of the bed.
Picking up a piece of paper on my pillow I turned it over and read it.
"Hope you're feeling better. Meet me downstairs? -Carter"
I frowned. What kind of kidnapper asks if you're feeling better and then asks nicely if you'll meet him downstairs. I'd been kidnapped before and trust me. It wasn't like this.
Shaking my head I cautiously walk down the stairs and followed my nose to the kitchen. I could hear the bacon sizzling and smell the delicious food before I even entered.
Carter was standing at the stove with a spatuala in hand. He turned and grinned widely at me. "Good Morning beautiful! Hope you're hungry. There's bacon, pancakes and eggs. Good meal." He said proudly.
I grabbed a seat at the counter and smiled lightly at him. "Carter what exactly is going on?" I asked as he handed me a plate of food.
Carter glanced at me and then looked down, avoiding my gaze. "Look Käti, you have pretty free range here right now. You can explore...cook, read, whatever you want. But asking these questions are no going to get you anywhere. You wouldn't understand the answers."
I frowned. "How would you know I wouldn't understand? And f.y.i. Kidnapping me and putting me in the middle of nowhere is not "free range"." I said heatedly.
Carter looked at me with sadness in his eyes. He turned towards the stove, when he looked at me again the sadness was gone and he was emotionless. "Just eat your food."

Carter's P.O.V.
I was in the gym room mulling over what to do. Käti had left the kitchen without a word after she'd eaten. I knew she was mad, but I was right. She wouldn't be able to handle it. And I needed her to stop asking questions.
I admit...I shouldv'e broken Käti into this whole thing a bit easier. But it was done now...and I was just trying to find a way to tell her...How do you tell someone something that sounds impossible and will tear thier world apart?
I buried my head in my hands and sighed deeply. This was such a mess. There was a clanking noise in the corner. I looked up quickly, my body tensing. No one there. I frowned looking around.
Suddenly Käti came out of nowhere and grabbed my gun. My trained reflexes took over and I grabbed her arm that was holding the gun. Dropping the gun she grabbed it with her other hand and jammed it into my neck. I yelled loudly but moved my hand to her neck in a choke-hold.
Hesitating, I noticed her eyes. She was pissed and I knew I had to take her out. She wasn't hesitating with me. Bringing her knee up to my crotch I caught it and twisted her leg to side. She yelped in pain, but brought her arm around neck bringing us closer.
Now we were both in a choke-hold. I groaned as she tightened her hold. I knew what I had to do. I brought my knee up and hit her in the gut, she groaned and leaned forward giving me just enough leverage to head-butt her hard.
Käti yelped in pain taking her hands from around my neck and bringing them to hold her head instead. I let go of my chokehold and stepped back.. Waiting for her to attack again. But she didn't.
Käti stumbled backwards and fell onto the floor. I rushed forward and kneeled down. "I'm sorry." I said as I tried to see if she was okay. Her head was buried in her hands. I reached out and she jumped away from me and started running.
"Shit."
Sorry! Really short chapter....But updating basically right away!
So How are we liking Carter? O.o
What does he want to tell her??? Hmm....
Where the hell is she...for real. I'd be freaking out!
And....
