Cutthroat x Swindler (Akudama Drive)

4

I laid back down on the couch as I stared up at the ceiling in wonder. Did I do something wrong? There was absolutely no way I could live with myself if I had let someone watch what he was about to do. Another shiver went down my spine and Cutthroat popped his head over the couch.

"Who was that?" He asked in a serious manner.

His voice made my heart skip a beat. He was so good at making me feel guilty. I was even starting to feel bad for inviting my boyfriend inside.

"M-My boyfriend." I replied hesitantly.

"Oh really! Wow he seems nice!" Cutthroat was immediately back to his cheerful tone and even had a smile on his face.

"I'm going to head out for a bit, but don't worry if he comes back ill hide."

I nodded my head in response and he turned away and headed towards the door.

"And don't worry I won't bring any police here."

That was the last thing he said before the door shut behind him. Today felt completely off. It was terrible timing having my boyfriend come back now. As much as I wanted to see him I wasn't sure whether I could tell him. I wasn't sure at this point if I was really scared of Cutthroat. It had already been a week and he hadn't made any attempt to threaten, kill, or even slit my throat. He acted more like a little kid and I was the one babysitting. Could I really let my guard down? I could always tell my boyfriend and have him tell Cutthroat to leave, but even though Cutthroat was a wanted murderer he hadn't done anything for me to kick him out. He could kill me at any time, but would he?

Getting up off the couch I walked over to the front door. The house would be empty for awhile. My boyfriend probably wouldn't be back till the middle of the night and im sure Cutthroat could just sneak in. Grabbing my purse from the shelf I decided to go on my own night walk.

The cold breeze hit my face as I walked down the lit up streets. It was a beautiful place at night. So many lights illuminated the town it almost didn't feel like the night time.

I shivered with each step. The only downside to being outside was it was absolutely freezing. Slowly but surely I was beginning to regret going out. I walked towards a nearby fast food place and decided to step inside. It was much warmer in here so I decided to make my way around. I took a seat at a small table in its own corner after ordering my food. It didn't take long before a plate with burgers and fries popped up from the table.

As I took a small bite from the fries all I could do was let my mind wander. Its been a whole week. The police still hadn't picked up on where he was and now I had to think of what to do with him.

How long would he stay for? He wouldn't stay forever right? Would it even be bad though?

I shook my head trying to get rid of those thoughts.

No everything would work out just fine.

He'd leave when he was ready and nobody would ever know he was there. Then I'd go back to living my everyday life with my boyfriend who wasn't always home. It was fine.

I gobbled down the rest of my food pretty fast. As warm as It was in here all that thinking was starting to bother me. I didn't want to think bad thoughts especially about my boyfriend.

Id be lying if I said the thought never crossed my mind. But was it always work that he was doing? Was there anyway he could spend more time with me? Sometimes I had just wanted to be around him thats all.

But I refused. I refused to think of these thoughts so I let them fade in the back of my mind. All i could do now was go home and sleep it all off.
