Gus's POV

When I kissed him on the cheek he blushed, and smiled before he left. I immediately put his number into my cell phone. I couldn't wipe the stupid smile off of my face. Is this what it's like to be in love? As I do with all my problems, not that this was one, I called my mom. After a few rings she picked up the phone.

"Hey Peepers, how are you baby?"

"Hey Mom, and so good!"

"You sound excited..what happened?"

"Mom I think I might be in love..."

"Oh my goodness, with who?"

She said, she seemed almost as happy as I am. I sighed, still a little starstruck, "his name is Bexey..." I explained that o her how I met him. She was a little surprised of the circumstances, but she also does know my work. She believes in fate. I told her all about this morning, except for the little accidents with the knife and with the choking. I told her about him giving me his number though. We talked for a bit and before we hung up she asked me when I was gonna call him. "I don't know Mama, I'm low-key nervous... I've killed diplomats and I'm scared of calling a boy who's like 5'3 tops..." I rambled. She told me to call him before the day was over, so he knew I cared, and to ask him to met somewhere safe in the daylight so he knew I wasn't a threat. I've never had feelings quite like this for someone before, but they were growing out of control fast and I couldn't even help it. I don't wanna help it.
