Rise of The Scorpions

Chapter 9

"Ok, ok. I guess I deserved that but you can stop now," he tells me wrapping me in his arms.

"You scared me," I say crying, "I thought someone found out about you and took you. I thought that you were hurt, or going to be hurt."

"I....I'm sorry....I just wanted to be like one of those cute couples that sneak up on each other and scare each other...."

He opens his mouth to continue but I interrupt him, "I know that you meant no harm. It's just that we can't be like other people because of being spies. It's not your fault."

He leans down and kisses me, "I promise I will never try to be cute again."

"Try being the keyword."

"What do you mean?"

"You don't have to try to be cute you just are." He starts to blush and kisses me again.

He leans down to my ear and whispers, "I love you."

I blush and whisper it back.

The next morning I wake up to the smell of bacon and put on my robe and go down stairs. I lean against the doorway and watch him making food.

"Smells good." He looks over as I say this and finally sees me in the doorway. He comes over and wraps his arms around me holding me against the wall. I get on my tiptoes and kiss him passionately.

"I thought that after what happened last night I should make you breakfast."

"You didn't have to do that."

"I know I didn't have to but I felt bad and wanted to."

"Ugh, ok I guess that's ok. While you do that I'm gonna go get a shower."

As I start to walk away he comes up behind me and grabs my waist, "Are you sure you don't want me to join you."

"Hmmm, I would take you up on that but there's one problem."

"Ah and what might that be?"

"You'll have to figure that out yourself." I say walking away and smiling seductively.

He chases me and picks me up and takes me upstairs. "Well if you wont tell me I'll find a way to get it out of you."

I laugh and say, "Well, that's gonna take a lot of effort."

"I have a lot of energy."

"Good you'll need it."

"Yes, yes I will."

Trevor lays beside me breathing deeply and I look over to the clock. We were at that for 3 hours and our breakfast is probably cold and I still haven't taken a shower. I look over at him and his breath has slowed and he is staring at me. I blush, "What are you looking at?"

"What I can't look at my beautiful girlfriend after having sex with her?"

"You can its just..." I trail off.

"Its just you've never had someone look at you like this?"

"Yea, pretty much. I mean I like it, I really like it, it just makes me feel all bubbly inside."

"Hmmmm, I think that's called love." he says sarcastically. 

I laugh, "Ok mister sarcastic."

"Who are you calling mister sarcastic?"

"You, who else?"

"Ha ha." he says rolling over to face me and grabbing my waist. He pulls me into him and I giggle. His eyes shift from my eyes to my mouth. I've never noticed how pretty his eyes are. He kisses me soft but longingly.

"What was that for?"

He gazes into my eyes, "You're so beautiful, I love you so much."

I look away and blush, "I love you too."

"Well we should probably go downstairs and eat our cold food." He says getting up and pulling his pants on.

"Oh so you're just going to do that then get up like nothing happened, ok then." I say pretending to pout and rolling over.

He climbs on the bed and grabs me, "Well, we need to eat."

"But I need cuddles."

"Ok, how about you come downstairs and eat then we will come back up here and cuddle. How does that sound?"

"Ok I can deal with that." I follow him downstairs and we heat up our breakfast. We are silent as we eat.

Finally he speaks, "Ok I'm done. Are you almost done?"

"Yea, go on upstairs. I'll meet you up there when I'm done."

"Sounds good but hurry cuz I'm cold."

I laugh, "Ok I'll hurry."

*******

I finish my food and go upstairs like I said I would but when I go upstairs Trevor isn't in the room. I wonder where he could be. I look around and can't seem to find him. I finally get done looking everywhere and he is no where to be found. I do find one thing though. I find a syringe on the ground and it looks like there was a struggle. I start freaking out. Who took him? Is he ok? Will he be ok? I decide that I should probably inform the agency and I quickly dial the number.

"Hello, what's up? You usually never call us."

"Someone took him! Someone took Trevor! I...I don't know what happened...I was downstairs....I didn't hear anything..." I can't help myself, even with all my training to not get emotional, I start to cry. Tears start streaming down my face.

"Ok, it's fine. We will find him just calm down and tell me what happened. Start at the beginning of the day."

I take a deep breath and wipe away my tears and think back to this morning, "Ok so I woke up this morning to the smell of bacon. I put on my robe and went downstairs to find Trevor making me breakfast. He said that it was to apologize for last night..."

"What happened last night?"

"Umm I woke up and I couldn't find him anywhere and I was freaking out and he jumped out and scared me."

"Ok, continue your story."

"Ok, then I told him that I would go take a shower while he cooked breakfast and then we went upstairs and had sex a couple times. Then we went back downstairs and ate breakfast. He got done before I did and he said that he would meet me upstairs when I was done. He went upstairs and I continued to eat. When I got done I came upstairs and he was gone. Then I found a syringe on the ground and it looked like there was a fight."

"Ok, we'll use that information to find him. Don't worry." No matter what they say to calm me down I will worry. I will always worry.

"Ok, I'll try not to." I hang up and collapse to the ground. The tears come back to my eyes and I find myself unable to stop myself from crying. As the tears stream down my face I see an incoming call. Unknown. I answer, "Hello?"

A deep voice speaks, "I have your boyfriend. If you ever want to see him alive again you will do exactly what I say."
