Valerie POV
It was the next day around noon. Finn and I planned to leave the hotel around 6. We're planning on taking the victim's car battery leaving her with no choice but to take our ride. Then we'll kill her and our job will be done for the night. For now I'm just in bed on my phone while Finn is showering. I was letting my boss know that we had already killed 3 people and I just needed 3 left. Finn and I had gotten really close in the past few days that I had known him. Last night still had me a little confused though. I didn't know what I was thinking. I always tend to think to myself if he wants to be more with me. I never thought of it that way though. We were probably just in the moment, that's all right? Right now though I have to focus on my job. On my job to kill 3 more people. It won't be that hard right?
Later that day it was time to head out. We were planning on ending her life quickly in the car. We put some towels in the back so the mess won't be so bad. We headed to the store where her car was. Her car was out of her sight so it wasn't going to be difficult getting the battery out. The sun was setting and we started to get to work.
"Ok Finn you start to take out the battery while I put the towels once you do that let's go leave the battery somewhere so we're not just in the car." I told Finn
"Ok tell me when your done."
I went off to get the towels ready. We didn't want to seem suspicious waiting in the car so we went of to buy some snacks next door. The victim was a 20 year old woman that is super naive when it comes to being in the city.
We got back to the car where we waited for a few minutes until our victim went out of the store. She finally came out and she couldn't start her car so she asked me for a ride.
I said "Sure just get in the back and tell me where your going."
"Oh ok thank you can you take me to 11385 Oak Street?"
"Yeah no problem." I said as I started taking out my katanas from their cases. We drove off to a road that wasn't so busy so no one would see us.
"Excuse me, but where are you taking me? I don't think this is my way home."
"No it's not it's on your way to a better place."
"What do you me-" she went silent we my katana pierced through her stomach. Few seconds later she stopped breathing and she was dead. We went to her address and dumped her body there. I looked at Finn and he looked petrified.
"Finn are you ok?" I asked.
"Yeah I don't want to talk about it." He said as his hand shivered in fear. I grabbed his hand for him to feel reassured.
We made it back to the hotel and headed to the room. We had some snacks to munch on while we talked. It was around 8pm so we weren't going to sleep yet. The night was really nice so I went to the balcony. Then Finn asked me about my dad.
"When we barely met you told me about how you only have a dad. Did he teach you how to use your katanas?"
"Yeah he did. He taught me everything I know. Everything but how to kill." I replied.
"Oh, who taught you how to kill?"
"My boss, he met me when I was struggling in school so here I am now."
"Did you want to start to want to kill or did our boss provoke you?"
"Well my boss offered me a job and I was just trying to survive so I had no other choice. Surviving was all I needed and for a long time I didn't feel anything toward anyone."
"Why's that?"
"Because when I was around 8 years old I lost my dad to a fire and ever since then I had to learn to survive. Everything that I loved was taken away from me."
"Then why do you feel like you should take away people from the people they love?" He said as I felt the tears on my cheeks.
"And I could ask the same damn thing to you Finn." I said as I held back a sob.
There was a silence. I had my hands on my face so
Finn wouldn't see me cry.
Until I felt Finns arms hold me. I looked at him. Our faces inches apart. I grabbed his neck like he grabbed my waist. I looked into his eyes and I suddenly forgot everything around me. I stared into his eyes in the moonlight. I could feel his breath on my face. Finn filled the gap between us and kissed me. It was a fast kiss and stared at him in disbelief. He started apologizing.
"Oh my god I'm soooo so-" I kissed him.
As we kissed we made our way back inside. I pulled away to catch my breath. We were both panting. He had me pinned against the wall. Finn took off his shirt as it suddenly started to become hot in the room. I had never seen Finn shirtless but he didn't stop for long as he kissed again. Few minutes later I pulled away from another breath. Finn pushed me onto his bed and laid down right next to me. We were both panting and blushing. All the lights were off and the only light coming in was the moonlight. Finn turned to his side facing me. He kissed me. He pulled away as I turned my side to him as well. I started I grab me by the waist again. He pulled me closer and closer. I felt safe and loved in his arms. It was all perfect.
"So we do both feel the same about each other?" He whispered.
"Yeah, I guess we do." I replied as I kissed him one more time and we drifted off to sleep.
It was the morning of the next day. The sun shined through the door to the balcony. I was still in Finn's arms. Our legs tangled together. He was still asleep and I didn't want to wake him up. His arms were warm. I felt safe and warm. I didn't want to do what I had to do to Finn. I started to think about these past few days with him. They were perfect. Finn made me really happy and I didn't want to take that away from myself if it's just about money. Finn is the first person I had really felt a personal connection with in a long time. Last night just proved that he felt the same way. Maybe after all this is over we can be more than just friends. Right now we were supposed to be doing our job. It wasn't long after that Finn started to wake up. I tried to pull away but he just held me tighter.
"Don't leave me."he said in a groggy whisper voice.
"Finn I have to get up to get ready."
"No you don't we have until 4pm we're fine." He said as he started to realize that he was holding me.
"Finn," I said as I put my hands on his face to make him face me.
"I really like you, but right now we need to get the job done so that what you and me want can happen. So can you promise me we can do this so we can have this be official?" Finn stared at me as he turned a light shade of pink.
"Yes I can promise you that." He said as he kissed me. It was perfect.
