It's Complicated (a Malec AU)

Chapter Ten: The Complicated Hit-Man

Alec Pov a Year Later- "How long do we have to sit herrrre? I'm borrrrrd" the annoying young blond whined from next to me. We were laying on the ground, hiding in the bushes while watching the building across the street. "Maureen, stop complaining. You're going to make Alec lose his concentration" an annoying male voice said from the other side of me.

Maureen looked at him glaring "I'm not complaining Malcolm; I'm whining there's a difference." He glared back at her "no Maureen, there really isn't a difference. You're annoying Alec and breaking his focus." "Oh, and what does that say about you? You're yelling at me and screaming in Alec's ear so that must be breaking his focus too."

"I'm not screaming. In fact, I would call this a whisper" he said looking at his nails. "A whisper" she yelled making me shush them both loudly. "Can you two keep it down? You're both making me lose my focus so shut it."

They both stayed quiet for a moment before looking away pouting like scolded children. These two charming people were my partners Maureen Brown and Malcolm Fade. Both are childish, annoying, and don't know how to take things seriously. Why Raphael would ever hire them I have no idea but he did.

A year ago to this very day I joined Raphael's Mob. I had a choice between selling his drugs or taking out his enemies so I chose the second option. Sure, I never thought I would be a killer and the old me wouldn't even consider hurting anyone. The old me is dead though, all that remains is what I need to survive.

Once I decided on becoming a hitman Raphael put me with his top two killers saying that their skills are great but they could use a serious hand to guide them. Oh how right he was about that. Maureen Brown was only eighteen years old and was always obsessed with every attractive guy she comes across. Her latest crush happens to be on Raphael's boyfriend Simon Lewis which makes it surprising that Raphael hasn't killed her yet.

Malcolm Fade was just as childish if not more so then Maureen. He picks fights with her all the time and he treats our missions like it's all one big game for him to play. I'm pretty sure he's older than I am but he's always lying about his age so I don't know it for sure. Being the serious one it was only obvious that I would become the leader of our little group.

"How much longer do we have to lay here and wait" Maureen whined sitting up and starting to pull loose grass off of her white dress. "I wanna go home and see Simon." Malcolm snorted at this "Simon doesn't want to see you." Maureen punched him in the arm and I rolled my eyes before pulling out my binoculars and looking across the street through the bushes.

A black limo drove up to the building and seconds later the guy we were after stepped out and went inside the building with a couple body guards. A few more body guards stayed outside covering the door. "He's here" I said sitting up and looking at them "you two remember the plan?"

Maureen stood up brushing off her dress "I wanna play with them for a bit. What's the fun of these jobs if we can't play mind games with them?" I shook my head no "this is too important to risk holding back. I need to get info out of that man before I kill him and I want as many of his guards out of the way as possible. Don't play with them or tease them, if you see a guard shoot to kill got it?"

"Where's the fun in that though" Malcolm asked pouting. "This isn't meant to be fun. Now do as I say." They both nodded before getting their guns ready and sneaking closer to the building.

Maureen hid behind the limo pointing her gun at one of the guards. She pulled the trigger hitting one before moving along and hitting two more. Three more guards were left and they looked around frantically trying to locate where the shots came from. Malcolm sat on the other end of the limo gun ready and in seconds the remaining guards fell.
