BENSON
Things weren't going to end well and I had to be careful not to get into trouble this time with the law because my life seemed like it was starting to come together finally and the LAST thing I want is to mess it all up.
After I took a shower and got dressed downstairs in the guest bedroom and bathroom. I looked down at my watch and noticed that Mystique had been upstairs for a while now.
I had a bad feeling in the pit of my stomach and feel like there's something wrong. So I next start making my way upstairs and at first I knock on the door and when I heard her start to cry and sniffle, I opened the door and saw her sitting on the bed, crying with her face in her hands.
"Baby?" I asked her.
She looks up with her watery and red puffy eyes from the crying and then runs up to me and throws her arms around my neck while I quickly hold her close to me.
"Shhh....It's okay. What's wrong?" I ask her.
She next pulls away a little and looks at me as she starts to explain.
"I just got a call from Mordecai. He has Liona." She starts to cry.
"Oh baby, it's okay." I tell her as I bring her back into me. "It's gonna be alright. Trust me, he won't kill her. I promise." I start to try and tell her.
"How? I mean, he told me not to involve the authorities and not to tell you or anyone but, I know I can't fight or anything and now I feel like at the same time, by telling you just now, that she's gonna get killed because of me. Yet, I need you to...." She began rambling until I stopped her and had her look up at me.
"Baby, look at me. I promise she'll be okay. I have an idea and am not entirely sure it's going to work or what's going to happen. But I do know that I want to be with you and that I have come so far that I don't want to mess it up again, with you." I try and explain to her.
She smiles at me and then nods her head in agreement as if she's trying to tell me that she trusts me.
"Okay. I trust you." She tells me. "But then what are we going to do? We can't go to the authorities." She says.
"Maybe not the local ones but, we can try with another source. Ones that have been looking for him and trying to take him down for years." I begin to try and explain the idea to her.
"Who?" She asks while looking at me confused.
"The FBI." I tell her.
"What? They won't help. You're an ex-con, no offense and what makes you think they will even believe you let alone, trust you?" She asks me.
Although she has a point, at the same time I know that what they want I can give them. Despite the dangers and risk. Besides, it can't be any scarier than it is right now.
I know Mordecai and all that him and his men are capable of doing. To take him down, we would only have a chance if we went along with this idea of mine, otherwise, I honestly am not sure in how this would end.
"Trust me, we'll be fine baby." I assure her with a gentle smile while caressing softly the side of her face as she looks into my eyes and I wipe the tears that are falling down her cheeks off with my thumb before giving her another kiss and then embracing her in another secure hug.
"Thank you." She says.
Next chapter will be posted soon! :)
