Rise of The Scorpions

Chapter 16

The next morning I wake up to the smell of bacon and eggs. Man have I missed this. No, I can't think like that. I know how I feel about him but I can't let the affect what I have to do. He doesn't feel the same, he just wants me to think that he does. He doesn't love me, he was just using me for his stupid game. He probably wasn't even kidnapped, he was probably with his partner in crime. I get up and walk out to the kitchen.

Trevor looks up and smiles at me, "Good morning beautiful."

I smile back tiredly, "Good morning." I yawn.

"Tired still?"

"Yea I couldn't sleep that well."

"Aww, why not?"

"I don't know I just couldn't, but it's ok, I'll be fine"

"Are you sure?"

"Yes, I'm sure."

"Ok I just wanted to check." He walks around the counter where I am now sitting and kisses me on the forehead. He then makes me up a plate and sits down to eat with me.

********

It's later in the night and I am thinking to myself. This was probably one of the least eventful days that I have ever had. I mean I'm a spy but damn. All we did today was sit and watch TV. How is that fun? I mean like what happened to that guy that supposedly kidnapped you? If you were "kidnapped" shouldn't we be looking for them? And what about The Scorpions? How come nothing even happened with them today? How was today so uneventful?

********

I wake up the next morning to the smell of breakfast again. It's the same routine as the day before. We eat, then we run errands, then we watch TV and go to bed, then repeat. This goes on for about a week until I finally get a call from my mom.

"Hey sweetie, we have a job for you. Sorry it has been kind of dead for you. We just figured we would give you some time to your boyfriend."

"It's ok mom, though it was very uneventful and frankly kind of boring. We did the same routine for the whole time. It'll be nice to do something else."

"Well, we have found out that there is a mole in our business and I'm not sure who it is. I remember that you were always good with that kind of stuff. I was wondering if you would want to take on the responsibility of finding this person for me?"

Fuck, of course she asks the mole to investigate the mole. "Yea, I could do that for you."

"Thank you so much sweetie, it means a lot."

"Of course."

********

How the fuck am I going to do this? Could I out Trevor? How would I get that info? How would she know that I didn't know the whole time and didn't tell her? I have no clue what to do. I can't really tell her that I'm the mole. Maybe there is a different mole that I have to find. I really hope so. Maybe I can ask her how she know's that there is a mole.

Trevor can see the concerned look on my face, "What's wrong babe?"

I look at him and smile, "Nothing, I'm just thinking."

"What about? It looked like it was something intense." he has a really concerned look on his face now.

I laugh, "No, that must just be my thinking face. I don't know I've never really looked at it."

"Ok, if you're sure."

"I am." Damn he's kind of gullible. No I'm not ok. He's a fucking asshole who played me.

********

It's the next morning and I still don't know what to do about the mole situation so I just go about my day. I will deal with the mole problem tomorrow, but for today I need to focus on Trevor. I still need to figure out what to do with him.

I'm laying in bed thinking when I smell the delicious smell of Trevors cooking in the kitchen. This is when I decide that I should probably get up and get going, so I get dressed and walk out to the kitchen. He made us waffles, bacon, hash browns, and eggs. We sit and eat in silence like we have since he got back.

Finally he talks, "So, what's the plan for today."

I think for a moment, I can't really tell him that I am going to be looking into him, "I'm not sure, I haven't planned anything."

He gets an excited look in his eye and I don't know whether to be excited or concerned, "I know just what we are going to do today."

********

"Seriously, why won't you tell me?"

"It's a surprise." I groan and he chuckles. We are in the car on our way to god knows where. We have been driving for about an hour already and by this point there is nothing around us. The perfect place to dump a body where no one will think to look. He isn't going to kill me is he? Did he get all he needs from me?

"I just want to know."

"And as I said it is a surprise."

"Ok, well this surprise is making me anxious."

"And why would it be making you anxious? You have nothing to worry about. I will protect you."

I start to get upset so I say, slightly hostile, "Ok, I don't need some big man to protect me. I can protect myself, I have been doing it my whole life."

"Woah there. What's gotten into you? You have been really awkward with me lately."

"It's nothing, I'm just still upset about you getting kidnapped. If anyone here needs to protect anyone, it would be me protecting you."

"Haha, very funny."

"I'm not kidding, you are the one who got yourself kidnapped and had me worried sick."

"It's not like I TRIED to get kidnapped."

"Did you even fight back? You weren't bruised or anything when you came back. It's like they didn't want to hurt you."

"I don't know why that is. They didn't touch me, they just waited patiently for you. Anyways we are here."
