"Wakey wakey!" I rubbed my bleary eyes to see Adam half-sitting on my bed, pulling my blanket away slowly.

"No!" I said as I grabbed my blanket back before throwing it over my head, only to hear chuckles from Adam.

"We've got some killing to do today and you wanna continue sleeping? Very interesting."  He said, shaking his head in disappointment.

Then an idea struck me.

Holding the blanket in my hands which was still above me, I threw the blanket over Adam's head, tackling him down on my bed. Groans could be heard as I laughed softly, successfully 'catching' him.

"Gotcha." I smiled at myself, using my body as a weight to press down the blanket over Adam who was struggling from under.

"You. Little. Monster." He mumbled under this breath, sending me laughing all over again. 

The blanket was suddenly pulled downwards, revealing Adam's face who was clearly unimpressed. I paused for a moment, eyes widening as I slowly came to realize he had 'escaped'.

Frowning, I tugged at the blanket in vain attempt to bring it over his head again. He, however, held the blanket tightly in his hand, eyes totally focused on mine.

Caught in that gaze, I just looked into his eyes, losing myself in that sea. His eyes softened as they looked into mine, sending shivers down my spine.

"Uh, we've got a mission to complete yeah...?" I stuttered, breaking eye contact.

He looked away slowly before gazing back into eyes and nodding. "Yeah... We do..."

Nodding back at him, I walked over to my suitcase as I took out a fresh set of clothes. Making my way to the toilet, I quickly washed up and changed my clothes. Looking up into the mirror, I took time to look at myself.

Everything's gonna be okay.

Nodding to myself, I took a deep breath as I walked out of the bathroom. My gaze fell on Adam who was staring at me, an amazed look on his face. My heart immediately slammed against my chest as I felt my cheeks burn slightly.

Realizing what he was doing, he shook his head at himself before giving me a sheepish grin, running his hands through his hair. I shook my head as I smiled slightly, cheeks still burning.

We then booked a taxi before leaving for the clinic...

"Damn, why is the queue to see this doctor so long?" I murmured to myself.

"Be patient Cookie Monster." Adam said, looking pretty bored as he crossed his arms.

"You don't look too patient." I replied, giving him a slight smirk as an amazed expression crossed his face.

"Well, at least I'm trying." He replied, giving me a frown, leaving me chuckling.

"279" Our queue number flashed.

We stood up as I pushed open the wooden door slowly, revealing a middle-aged man. Adam and I exchanged glances before he gave me an assuring nod, calming me down.

"So, what happened? Down with fever or...?" The doctor started asking, a concerned look on his face, making my doubts about killing him rise within me.

As if sensing my thoughts, Adam nudged my arm gently, a frown on his face as he shook his head slightly. I took a deep breath before looking at the doctor in the eye, "I am not down with fever or anything... I... I'm sorry..." I stuttered before lunging towards him, using my arm to circle around his neck.

Using my other hand to reach for my gun, I slowly brought it up to his head. Tears were already welling up in my eyes as fear filled his entire face.

"Don't...kill...me... We can talk this through... You know...?" He said in between gasps of air, making a tear flow down my cheeks.

Why was I crying?

I bit my lip till I thought I tasted blood. I glanced up at Adam through tears in my eyes, seeing him bite his lip too as he nodded at me, avoiding eye contact.

I shut my eyes as I allowed more tears to flow down my cheeks, leaving a burning sensation. This killing was going to be fast. Yet painful. But I had to do it.

"I'm sorry..."

BANG!

***
The doctor lay in my arms after I had shot him. Limp. Dead. Bloody. I glanced at Adam to see an anxious expression written on his eyes.

"We've got to move. Fast." He said, a worried expression filling his awfully handsome face.

I nodded, stepping away from the doctor as I passed him over to Adam. "They will realize something is wrong after the gunshot. We'll exit through the backdoor." He said hurriedly as footsteps from outside could be heard, approaching closer...

Carrying the doctor in his arms, I quickly barged open the backdoor, allowing us to escape before slamming the door behind, just to hear the swinging of the door into the doctor's room.

Through the front of course.

"Don't stop. We have to run." Adam said, biting his lip as he looked around in panic.

Nodding back, we took to our heels. We ran. Ran as fast as we could. Ran to somewhere. Somewhere away from this clinic. Away from this horror.

We had to dispose the body properly. Erase all evidence.

Then the job is done.
