The Devil's Assassin

13

"Hello little devil..." She smiles at me.
I slowly sat up and gave a questioning look to the lady across me. She winked and looked at Andy. 'And who might you be young man?' She asked.
"I'm Andy, Ella's friend. And this is my sister Anna." Anna gave a shy wave and smiled.

"Well, I'm glad you guys are here for her. She turned to me with an intense look. She passed out when she found out that her brother is in town.

My eyes widened and I looked at the councilwoman before me. She got up and picked her hand bag. I trust that Ella is safe in you hands and Tristan, extend my greetings to your mom." She patted his cheek and grabbed her keys, "I've gotta get back to work, see you later."

"Well, that was one way to meet your mom." I tuned to Andy with a sharp look because that was the last thing on my mind. There was a possibility that he could find me and blow my cover. I've been running from my past for too long and it has finally caught up with me.

After Andy and Tristan decided to have a guy's night out, Anna set up a fort while I watched her build the massive contraption out of sheets and pillows. When she was done, she held up a movie.

I looked closely at the cover and I grimaced. The notebook. "We are watching this movie even if I have to hold your eyes open with my fingers.

I sighed and gave a resigned smile. "Fine"

"That was so amazing, I sniffled and grabbed a tissue. I don't think I've ever felt so in love."
"Welcome to the amazing world of Ryan Gozling lovers." Anna sniffled and grabbed a tissue before blowing her nose loudly.

The front door opened and I reached for my dagger under the couch. Tristan walkd in with a stumbling Andy on his shoulder. "He had one too many." Tristan threw Anna a sheepish smile, earning a facepalm from her.

"Just place him in the guest room and place a trashcan near his bed. I'll provide some Tylenol and water when he wakes up, that is if you don't mind." I turns towards her and waved my hand. "Mi Casa es tu casa."

"Ella..."
"Sugar..."
"Wakey sunshine..."
"Well I'm sure you won't mind if I kiss you..."

I shot up from the couch and head butted Andy. "What the fuck were you trying to do you idiot??"

"Well that certainly got you awake," he replied while rubbing his forehead.

I stood up and faced him while he stared into my eyes.

He slowly leaned in and I let out a sigh, shutting my eyes. I felt his breath on my lips when...

Smack!

My hand came into contact with Andy's cheek and Anna shot up from the fort.

"What was the for???" He yelled. I smiled and patted his head. "For getting drunk."

Tristan sauntered down the steps and raised a brow at Andy who was rubbing his cheek with a scowl on his face. "Bad morning?"

Anna prepared some breakfast while we all showered to get ready for school. I put on my outfit for the day:

I skipped the steps two at at time and bumped into Andy who was chewing an apple. He was dressed like this:

I stepped back and looked up at him. He stared back with no emotion and it cut through me like ice. I mentally traced his jawline, his lips and my worst mistake was looking into his emerald green eyes.

"You don't look so bad today."

I was steered out of my day dream and i gaped at Andy. "So you mean I look bad every other day?" He smirked at me and took a bite out of his apple. "Now, now dear,don't go putting words into my mouth.

Close your mouth Ella, I wouldn't want you catching flies."

My eye twitched.
My vein pulsed.
My heart was thumping.
My pupils dilated.
The devil is here bitch.

I lunged for Andy and tacked him to the floor. I aimed for his nose and he dodged in time, making my fist go through the hardwood floor. "Still wanna rat your mouth off lover boy?" I bat my eyes at him and got up to straighten out my outfit.

"Where'd you learn that" He gaped with a pale face. "A few self defense classes." I shrugged and snatched the apple from his hand.
Anna snickered as she bypassed us. "Breakfast is ready."

After a lovely meal of pancakes and strawberry, we took off for school.
