Learning to Love the Assassin

•Chapter 4•

I felt shuffling, and opened my eyes. Tyler was putting on his shirt, I stared at his perfect 8 pack. His shirt covered his abs and I looked up at him, he was smirking.
"Good Morning, Chrys! What would you like for breakfast on this beautiful Saturday morning?"
"I-uh, omelets?" I said as more as a question. They are my favorite, but I love Boy's omelets the best.
"Coming right up!" Tyler said and jogged down the hallway toward the kitchen. I followed after him and tried making coffee, key word- TRIED!
"Sit down on this stool and relax, I'll do it," Tyler said and pointed to the stool at the breakfast bar. I sat down and watched his master skills in the kitchen. When he flipped the omelet, he did the flip thingy with the skillet.
"Got some skills, eh?" I said and got comfy in my seat. We both laughed.
"Yup, my mom taught me everything I know. I have to get my sister and brother from my friend's house, is it alright if they come here and hangout?" He asked hopefully. I nodded and smiled, I have always been good with kids, even at the Assassin School I still played with the kids and babysat a few times.
"Thanks so much! Here," he said and handed me a plate with a beautiful omelet on it, there was some bacon on the side and he made me a latte with some sort of design in the froth.
"Thanks! It looks delicious!" I said and dug into my plate.
"When is your birthday?" Ty asked all of a sudden.
"Tomorrow, why?"
"I'm taking you out, or we can stay here?" He said.
"Stay here, I hate going places," I said and heard a knock on the door. I got up and opened the door to see Cory, my "dad" standing there.
"Who is it?" Tyler yelled from the kitchen.
"My dad!" I yelled back.
"Who's here?" Cory asked.
"My friend, Tyler. He spent the night." Cory nodded and walked into his bedroom. He put his bags down, unpacked and came into the kitchen. Me and Tyler were laughing at something Tyler said.
"Hello, I'm Chrys's father, Cory and you are?" Cory asked sticking his hand out for Tyler to shake.
"Tyler, Tyler Brandon, I'm your beautiful daughter's friend. I hope it was okay with you spending the night," Taylor said and shook his hand.
"It's fine, I'm just glad she found a friend!" Cory said and grabbed himself some coffee.
"Who made you the latte, Chrys?" Cory asked. I looked at Tyler and he smiled proudly.
"I did sir." We laughed and talked for a little bit.
"I gotta go get my siblings. I'll drop them off here and pick them up later," Tyler said and got up. "It was nice meeting you, Cory. Good bye, Chrys."
I waved and we said our goodbyes. Once he left, Cory turned into his very immature self.
"He so liked you! Did you see the way he smiled at you and looked at you! You like him too!" Cory said and jumped down on the couch. I laughed and shook my head.
"I don't and never will, I can't! Oh I forgot, I took out one of our targets at the school, no one knows who I am," I said and relax on the couch. "I gave Tyler some of my blood to do the burning sacrifice so that I will be their Allie."
"Good, I took one out also on my way here," Cory said and smiled. We talked for a few more minutes before we heard a knock. I got up and walked to the front door and opened it. Tyler was standing with flowers and his siblings were standing with him.
"Hey guys! Come inside," I said and moved out of the way. They all filed in and walked to the living room.
"So Chrys, this is Kyle and Lucy, Kyle and Lucy, this is Chrystine. She will be watching you while I take care of business," Tyler sad and pointed to each kid.
"Hi! I'm Lucy and you are really pretty! I bet my brother likes you!" Lucy said and hugged my leg. Tyler blushed and looked away.
"Hey Chrystine, I'm Kyle and I'm 10. Lucy's right, you are pretty," Kyle said and stuck his hand out for me to shake.
"Why thank you, kind sir. Come on, Lucy, I have some colors and Kyle I have an X-box!" I said and shook his hand.
"Bye kids! Be good for Chrys!" Tyler said and put the flowers on the dining table. "Bye Chrys, don't be afraid to punish them!" Tyler walked out of the door before giving me a wink.

The rest of the day was fun. I learn that Kyle was 10, he loves pizza and sprite, he hates looking after his sister, and plays football like Tyler. Kyle was actually a quarterback on his team just like Tyler. Lucy was another story. She loved cupcakes and cake, she liked dolls and Barbie's. She was adorable with her long brown hair and her beautiful brown eyes. Kyle had dirty blonde hair and blue eyes.

After 7 hours of running around, playing Black Ops, coloring, and baking cupcakes, Tyler finally knocked on the door. I ran to the door and opened it.
"Hey Ty!" I said and opened the door wider so he could walk through.
"Hey Chrys, thanks so much for this," Tyler said.
"It was no problem, come inside and we can eat some cupcakes," I said and lead him to the kitchen.
"Ty!" Lucy said and got off the couch. She jumped into Tyler's arms.
"Hey lil' bug! Was Chrys amazing?" Tyler said and looked at me.
"Best babysitter ever!" Kyle said walking into the kitchen. "You have to let us come again!"
"Well that's good to hear," Tyler said laughing.
"I would love to do this again sometime, Kyle and Cory became close today," I said and frosted cupcakes. They were Red Velvet and the cream cheese frosting tasted amazing. Lucy helped with the cupcakes and Kyle made the frosting. I could tell their mother was a good cook and taught them what they needed to know about cooking. After I was done frosting 4 cupcakes, I handed everyone 1 and ate mine.
"Good job, Chrys," Tyler said and licked his finger clean of the frosting.
"I agree!" Lucy and Kyle said.
"Thanks guys," I said and threw away the wrappers.
"Lets go, kids. Go get in the car and I will be out in a minute," Tyler said. The kids ran out of the house to the car and left me and Tyler alone.
"Thanks, Chrys. I was hoping I could take you out tomorrow for your birthday? Maybe out on a... Date?" Tyler asked with the fear of me saying no.
"I would love to! Pick me up at 10:00 am and I'll spend the whole day with you," I said and Tyler kissed my forehead.
"Great! Okay well I better go... Bye, Chrystine."
"Call me Chrys instead, it sounds good when you say it," I said and blushed a little.
"Okay, bye!" Tyler said and left.
"Gotta a date with the Alpha?" Cory said from behind me.
"Ahh! Don't do that! And yes, I do!" I said and punched his arm.
"Don't punch people, you are so strong and that hurts!" Cory said and kissed my forehead.
"Sorry, dad," I said and hugged him.
"I better make supper! Chinese or Mexican?" I asked opening the fridge.
"Mexican all the way!" Cory said and walked to the pantry. He got some rice and peppers to make Spanish rice. I grabbed tortillas and meat and started making enchiladas. After I was done, I put them in the oven. Cory was done making rice and starting getting out salsa and lettuce. The timer went off so I got the food out of the oven and grabbed plates. We grabbed food and ate making small talk. After I was done, I cleaned up and got ready for bed. I hopped in the shower and started singing to Skinny Love.

Come on Skinny Love, just last the year

Pour a little salt, we were never here

My my my my my my my my

Staring at the sink of blood and crushed veneer

I tell my love to wreck it all

Cut all the ropes and let me fall

My my my my my my my my

In the moment, the orders tall

And I told you to be patient, and I told you to be find, and I told you to be balanced, and I told you to be kind

But in the morning I'll be with you but it'll be a different kind
And I'll be holding all the tickets and you'll be owning all the fines

My singing was cut short when I heard a crash from the kitchen. I jumped out of the shower and put on my suit, I grabbed my Crimson blade and opened my door quietly. I heard shuffling and a grunt. I snuck down the hall way and hid in the shadows. I saw the window broken and blood on the floor. I jumped on the victim and realised who it was.
"Dawn?" I said to the body.
"Chrystine, how are you?" My friend dawn said.
(I mentioned her before when Chrys was leaving!)
"Good, but what are you doing?" I said and got off her. I noticed a cut in her arm.
"I have a message, something one of my victims said before he died. He said 'The Heartless Girl looses everything, the Alpha gets everything, but the future is gold.' I don't know what it means but I knew it had something to do with you," Dawn says taking out a picture. It was a younger man, maybe 19, with blonde hair and red eyes.  Under the picture was the message and his name, Dameon.
"Okay, thanks... I don't know either. Bye," I said before Dawn jumped out of the window.
'Whatever' I mumbled to myself.

I walked back to my room and saw a flower taped to my window. A note next to it said, Good Night, Chrys, I can't wait for tomorrow!
Love, Tyler.
I put the flower in a jar of water and went to bed. What did that man mean?
