CRYBABY

VII- The Mistake

Jennie

I can't believe what I'm doing.

I'm literally following a stranger. I followed her as she made her way through the crowd of people. I needed to get to her since she was slowly getting out of my sight.

I took a deep shaky breath and saw as she turned to a dark corner.

But, she wasn't alone.

Three men were behind her, meanwhile, she was purposely going after a guy who looked like a businessman. I wondered why she was alone, was she in danger?

My curiosity got the best of me, and without even realizing it, I was behind the three men. The evident voice of the man in front of the girl, made me stop in my tracks.

"You don't know what you're getting yourself into".

"I've known my fate, the day I saw you rape these other women". Her voice sent shivers down my spine. "Pretending to be a gentleman won't make you a man".

"And if so..". I could hear the mocker on his voice, "What makes you think that I can't kill you right now if I wanted to?".

Without even turning around, she spoke, "With these three rats behind me, trust me. I know that you won't because I'm the one here to kill".

His eyes widened, "What?".

"And I'm clearly here to get the job done".

I gasped, which made the four men and the girl notice me. My eyes looked at them confusedly. The three men looked like robots, they held their guns close and looked at me in a bored manner, meanwhile the man smirked at me, staring me up and down like I was a piece of meat.

The mysterious woman noticed the look on his face, her jaw clenched.

"And who are you, pretty lady?". He turned to me.

"I—". The woman with cold eyes cut him off, "No one you should bother".

I knew the man was trying to let his men isolate the scene. Make it seem as if an assassin like me would commit suicide once the cops would find me. But that's not how it works, he didn't know that I had a plan for trouble like him.

"And I'm clearly here to get the job done".

A woman behind us gasped, and it was the same girl I saw in the library twice, told her to sit down in the coffee shop. The enchanting girl had her eyes wide - lips parted. And I could swear that the moment our eyes met, I felt the curiosity creep up from underneath her into the air.

"And who are you, pretty lady?". The man that I desperately wanted to kill was now giving all of his attention to the girl. I've seen the hunger in his eyes, which made my blood boil.

This is how he has seen women. Lust would make him look like an animal, but his weapon would be money. And they always said how money was the motivation.

"I—". I stopped her from talking, my eyes not looking away from her scared ones, "No one you should bother".

"Once I'm done with you..". He said, switching his gaze between me and her, "I'm taking you home". He motioned to the other girl.

I wickedly felt myself smiling, "And I'm taking you to hell". With that, my feet found the wall, making me jump on his shoulders, putting my full weight on his neck, and making him fall down in pain. "Get off!".

The three men now stared at me with anger - trying to put on the mask of bravery and make me fear them. But I knew better than to put on an act of fear. One of them had this grin, that made me tilt my head, but as soon as he pulled the girl into his arms. Something inside of me made me want to jump into him and tackle him into the ground.

But I had their boss. I had the man beneath me, whimpering in pain as I slowly dug my boots into his neck.

"What do you want from me?! Let me go!". The more I added pressure into his neck, the more he moaned in pain.

I noticed one of them holding the black gun, pointing it at the woman's throat. I looked at her eyes, they were begging me, holding into my soul for dear life. But, I'm someone lifeless.

Someone she didn't need to follow.

"Dare to pull the trigger and I'm ending his life". I hissed at the man who was holding the girl.

The other two stepped closer, trying to resist my words. But, compare an assassin to normal bodyguards who were only trained to hold a gun and aim.

As they stepped closer, I grinned devilishly and pulled my two silver guns, pointing at them which made them take a step back.

"I can't b-breathe, let go".

"Let your men let go of her first". I coldly muttered.

"You idiots, just let that slut go". I closed my eyes for a second in cringe and pulled the triggers. Making the two men fall down on the solid ground. The one who was holding her, shrugged his head, "How do I know that you won't hurt him?".

"Let go of her". I was seriously getting irritated with him.

In a snap, I pointed the gun at his leg and pulled the trigger, which made him fall down in pain. The girl kicked his balls and ran to me. He groaned in pain but still had the gun in his hand. The devilish look on his face made me pull the girl into my chest protectively and shoot him right in his heart. Her hand was securely around my left shoulder, as my boots dig into the man who was beneath me.

I looked down at her, and my breath hitched.

"Can you let go of me?!". The annoying man tried to say, but I wasn't just done with him yet.

Or with her.

"I-I wanna go". The girl whispered, making me stare deep in her eyes, and lock my secrets away. "Not too soon princess". With that, I pulled her closer and kissed her. Slowly and surely, I pulled the needle from my jacket and stung her. In the start, she tried to resist, but her eyes fell shut, and her body wasn't in control anymore.

I held her protectively into my arms, staring intensely at her features. "And what about me?!". The businessman tried to look up at us.

"You will pay for what you did". I added more pressure into his neck, "But you won't die painlessly. You will feel every second of pain - torture".

"I will make you beg to die yourself".
