SUSPICIOUS

Sebastian's POV
          "Sebastian run! Run!! Run!!" Her screams echoed before she turned silent. I looked back to find a hole in her head with blood leaking from it. Her eyes became hollow and she slumped.
 
Then I woke up.

It wasn't easy. Running.

I felt the wetness on my bed as I adjusted against the bed now soaked in my sweats. I just hope she hadn't heard me. I looked at her in the other end of the room. She seemed to be fast asleep.

The clock read 5:30am.

Few months ago, if anyone told me I would find myself in such a situation I would have laughed but here I am.

Louise moaned and shuffled in her sleep. At least that's what she told me her name was. At first, I thought she might have been sent by Kirović but she seems to be proving me wrong minute by minute.

Quite guardless when she is asleep.

Louise had already found herself on the floor the next time I turned to look at her. Her dark brown curls splattered all over her dark skin. The thick blanket shielded her from the effect of the harsh cold floor and she still didn't wake up in that position. I wish I could sleep like that. Not worrying about everyone I meet being an agent.

I put my head back on the pillow but all efforts to go back to sleep were futile. I wondered if the organisation had already dissolved. They were like family to me. Maya's death was the straw that broke the camel's back.

We thought we wouldn't be found but we never noticed how much Hugo seemed to be drifting apart till the day we discovered he had crossed to the other side.

"Hey you are up already?" Louise struggled to get out of the blanket. She twisted and landed on her back. How on earth did I end up with her?

"Yeah I'm up."

Her eyes trailed down my bare torso the little neon light from outside had helped illuminate. Her face flushed with a little glow. I couldnt really make out a blush on her brown skin but I could tell I did quite a number on her.

She mumbled a few words I couldn't make out before we finally settled at the business of the day."So you are going to drop me off at the next town right?"

I turned to her to give her a full view off my upper body."A promise is a promise. "

"Okay,can you please put on a shirt? "

I shrugged " All my clothes are in the truck." She got up and dragged her feet across the room heading for the door.

        Soon enough,my eyes found her at the parking lot close to the vending machine. Her legs moving really fast, she put her hands in her pocket and whistled the tune of 'three blind mice'.

          A huge grin found its way to my face when she struggled to take two luggages out of the vehicle. It seemed like the day had begun to break immediately her butt hit the cold concrete wet from the after math of the midnight drizzle.
         
       With the way she is acting,she probably is not a good agent or not an agent at all.

      "Abbie!!!" Louise swung the door open with her left leg holding it in place while she tried to wheel the luggages in.

    "Don't call me that." I tiredly replied trying to turn my head away from the  lightly light entering the room but Louise took it upon herself to make my life a nightmare.

She turned on all the lights and screamed "Rise and shine big boy. We are about to get this show on the road."

"Shut the fuck up slut!!" Some stranger retorted angrily along the hallway but she refused to back down.
