The two young assassins sit in their room.

"Rina, why haven't we searched the sewers yet?" The pale one says to the other.

Rina sighs. She runs her hand over her axe.  Her smile is cold and deadly.

"Sakura, I don't want to just win. I want to break the pathetic child."

The Lair.

Ava sits uncomfortable in the couch. Awkward silence is in the air. For the first time since their date, Mikey and her are alone together. Every couple seconds she glances at him. She pretends to be watching tv, but she really is thinking about him. She turns her head to look at him, only to find Mikey staring at her. Ava jerks her head away and stares at her hands.

"Ava, I need to tell you something." Mikey begins nervously.

Ava looks up.

"It's just, umm, I think I'm in love with you!" He blurts out.

Ava gasps. Her heart rises and drops at the same time. She thinks for a minute. Her heart and head battle inside. Finally, she comes to a conclusion.

"I think I am too." She says quietly.

Mikey smiles. The two look into each other's eyes. Icy blue staring into soft blue. 

"But, why do you love me? I'm not worth it." She says sadly, her self esteem at low.

"Yes you are! You are beautiful, inside and out. You are amazing, you need to see that!" Mikey exclaims.

He grabs her soft, white hands into his large, three fingered ones.

"But, what about-"

Mikey cuts her off.

"If I love you, and you love me, there shouldn't be anything stopping us." He says simply.

"You're right." Is all she says.

"So, do you wanna be my girl?" Mikey says in a slightly playful voice.

"Of course." She says, smiling.

She hugs him and whispers in his ear hole.

"I knew it was you from the beginning."

I know it's short, but I wanted to put them together so bad! By the way, this book is nearing the end. It might have a chapter or two left.
