My lover, my assassin

Chapter 54

"So, I was thinking of doing it next week?"

We were lying in bed, the morning sun rising above the tree line. He was soothing my bare back as I sleepily gazed at the beautiful sun rise. 

"Hmm?"

"The wedding. Lets do it next week."

I sat up and stared at him, my mouth agape.

"So soon?"

"You don't want to?"

"Its not that!"

I lay back down, resting my head on his chest as I hugged his waist. 

"I cant wait to marry you but is that enough time?"

"Everyone who I want there already knows. I got their help to light the candles after all. Sensei knew what I was planning and I am sure Isogai let the rest of them at the company know. Who else is there?"

"Asano."

His hands stopped their soothing motion and I lifted my head up a little so I could see his face. He was staring up at the ceiling, his mouth in a tight line.

"I thought you guys had sorted out your differences."

"We worked together because we had to, to get you away from his father. I wouldn't call us buddies. He loves you Nagisa."

He put his arm under his head, propping it up as he stared at me. I could see he was worried. It wasn't that long ago I was held hostage with the Asano group.

"I can have him meet me in public. I want to tell him. He helped me a lot. He saved my life."

He sighed and closed his eyes.

"I know, I know."

Suddenly a smile spread over his face.

"What's so funny?"

He rolled us so he was on top of me and he grabbed my hand, kissing the ring that was now on my finger.

"I wish I could see his face when he sees he has lost."

"I'm not some prize."

He chuckled and leant down to kiss me.

"Yes you are, and you're mine."

I wrapped my arms around his neck and pulled him back down for another kiss.

"In my eyes your the prize and I've won."

I stood in the cold weather, shivering in my jacket as I stared at he large car in front of me.

"You're joking, right?"

"Nope."

Karma put the keys in my hand and opened the door to the large four wheel drive. Car was an understatement, it looked like a miniature tank. Large wheels, a bull bar with lights and tinted windows so dark you couldn't tell who was inside.

"I cant drive that!"

"Yes you can, it's like any car."

"With bullet proof windows?"

"Just a little extra protection for my fiancé."

He kissed my cheek as I scowled at him. I had told him my plans to take the bus to see Asano today and he had come back this morning with this travesty called a car. I was contemplating saying yes just to drive the car out of the gates and then parking it while I called a taxi. No way was I driving this around town, it was way to conspicuous and overboard. As if he sensed my thoughts he reached over and gripped my hand around the keys.
