When I woke up I was laid across his chest, one arm was stretched out over his lean figure. I flinched as my eyes fluttered open and my skin heated. Embarrassment? Excitement? No! Not going there! I looked at him to make sure he wasn't awkwardly awake and staring at me with appalled eyes.
"Fuck," I grunted and slowly lifted myself off him, careful not to wake him and pulled to my own side of the bed. I slowly put my legs over the edge and slid off the bed, "Darkfyre. Get up." I whispered, giving him a gentle shake. When I saw him stir and start to get up I pulled back and grabbed my bag, taking it into the bathroom and changing into a red, short, skin-tight dress that came up high on my thigh. It stuck to my skin, enhancing the curves on my body that normally were hidden with the thick assassins gear. "Ugh this is tighter than it used to be!" I groaned out in frustration.
"What is?" Darkfyre said from outside the door. For a moment, I stayed silent as I dug my hand in my bag pulling out my red heels and silently contemplated on whether I should really walk out of the bathroom in the tantalizing dress. "One second-" I called, opening the door after I slipped them on.
"Thi-" I cut off at the way Darkfyre looked at me.
"What? You said something exposing, is it too much?" I frowned, watching him shake his head side to side.
"You just happened to have this with you?" He asked, looking away as if he didn't want to see me. I simply shrugged it off, "I always keep a dress on me if I leave Dylatia. Who knows when a hottie will ask me on a date. But of course this is tighter than I thought...I haven't worn this in a while." I whispered, pulling the dress up just enough to tie my strap under the small dress.
"It's too tight. That won't work.." I grunted. Darkfyre shook his head and awkwardly stepped forward, pulling the strap off, careful of where his hands went. "Tie it here." He started putting it around my forearm then slid the blade in.
I stared at him like an idiot, "Yeah that's totally not noticeable at all!" I sarcastically growled before he grabbed the leather jacket, that I wore around my hips yesterday, and threw it to me. Again. He was right. I should've expected this.
"You were saying?" He smirked and grabbed his own bag, taking my place in the bathroom and nudging me out to change. I smiled some and pulled the leather jacket on as I waited. Then I locked in on Lucas's coordinates so that we would be prepared when it was time to go. It looked like he moved, but not by much. Darkfyre walked out in all black.
"So is that how it's going to be? I have to draw attention to my ass but you get to stay in the dark?" I playfully teased. He nodded, "If it helps any...At least you'll have the criminal's eyes on you. Be proud. That ass is the last thing he'll live to see." I could tell I was getting a smart-ass vibe from Darkfyre. I rolled my eyes, "Can we just go? I don't need to be arrested for dressing like a prostitute." I muttered, opening our door and grabbing my bag. He gave a brief nod and grabbed his stuff, carrying it out behind me and shutting the door.
"I'll just leave the key here." He said, just tossing the key on the mat in front of the door.
"They'll appreciate that." My voice chuckled some and I quickly snatched his car keys from his pocket and ran down, hopping in the driver's seat, "My turn" I howled, sticking out my tongue and wiggling the keys in the air to antagonize him.
He rolled his eyes, "Time to get serious." He tried to grab then but I quickly sat on them.
"Grab them, I dare you." I smirked, knowing he was smarter than that. I stopped for a moment to breathe then spoke again,"If you aren't going to then get your ass in. Then I will be serious! Like you!" I gave a serious face that was shattered by my laugh. He narrowed his eyes and got in, "get going then." He groaned as if he were being tortured and burned at the stake. I kept my driving under control, but fast to get to where Lucas was supposed to be, "I know that I'm being used as bait here. But what, for sure, is the plan?" I asked.
