Random POV

"Another black box gone. I think we're getting better at this," Nikita told Owen with a smile, even thought his back was towards her. She was extremely happy, they were getting really close to taking down Percy and that hell whole he created. "Wouldn't you agree?"

"Yeah…uh huh." Owen responded, turning around and Nikita realized a sad look in his eyes. He saw her face change when she saw his, so he turned around again, hoping to avoid the conversation he knew was coming.

"Owen," Nikita wanted to know what was wrong but he still wouldn't turn around so she walked in front of him. "Owen, what's wrong?"

"It's nothing, nothing's wrong."

"Owen, I know you lying. Tell me what's wrong, we can't work together if we can't even be honest with each other." Nikita would not give up until she got an answer.

Owen knew he couldn't hold back any longer, so he looked up and met her eyes. "Nikita I can't do this anymore."

"Owen, what do you-"

"Everyday I always help you with everything, and it's not fair because everyday I'm slowly falling for you, and I can't take it anymore! If we're going to be working together, we need to be together, because I can't take this pain I feel. I mean look at you! You're everything a guy wants! You're nice, but can be super tough! You're the most badass chick I've ever met and I can't help but feel for you. I'm sure any guy who has worked with you at least once, has felt the same way." Owen couldn't believe he just said all that, he has never opened up to anybody before, well he has but that was to Emily who was his girlfriend.

Nikita just looked back at him. She had no idea what to say. Everything he said was true especially the last thing, 'any guy who has worked with you at least once has felt the same way.' She couldn't help but think about Michael, because that was true about him. She knew Michael had feelings for her, but she couldn't wait around forever considering his ass was so loyal to Percy. Then her thoughts wandered to Owen, he was good looking, and he never meant any harm, and he was just completely honest to her about everything. And if being with him meant avenging Daniel's, Emily's, and Alex's parents deaths, then so be it.

Owen had been waiting patiently, he knew she was considering it in her mind, so all he had to do was wait. Then, Nikita looked up at him, smiling, and said, "Yes."

"Yes?"

"Yes, I will be with you if it means continuing getting help from you. But lets take things slow, nothing…well…you know."

Owen was thrilled with the answer, he knew Nikita didn't feel anything but maybe overtime he could show her what an amazing guy he was. He knows she's in love with Michael, but considering he isn't Division, isn't loyal to Percy in any way, and is on her side, he would have a better chance with her. He walked up to her and kissed her, pushing her against the wall. She was resisting it at first, but she remembered needing his help, so she couldn't do anything but give into the kiss.

Michael's POV

Ok, this is it. I go to Nikita and tell her I know Alex is the mole. I threaten to tell Division she's the mole if she doesn't find Kasim in 24 hours. I would never betray Nikita like that, but maybe if I make myself seem mad enough, then she will do it.

I finally got there, her loft was closer to my apartment then I thought. I got out of the car and walked up. Reaching the door, I put my hand on the knob, turned, and found it was unlocked. Not very spy like Nikita I laughed to myself. I touched my gun again for reassurance, made myself looked angry, even though I was thrilled inside because I had succeeded in finding her and where she lived. I waited a minute before walking in through the door completely.

As I descended down the tiny flight of stairs, I saw something that made me extremely angry. I couldn't help but let my anger out.

"YOU BITCH!" I screamed as I saw her pressed to a wall with Owen kissing her. I was hurt and angry and sad. They released their hold on each other and looked at me, in complete shock. I felt tears starting in my eyes. I didn't want them to see so I made a quick plan to get out of there. I shot my gun around the wall where they were standing, just to scare them enough as I ran out of there, gun in hand.

As I got in the car I could only think of one thing to do. I was completely out of options and I was extremely hurt after seeing Nikita with Owen. I felt bad about calling her a bitch, I guess I did because I felt cheated on even though I'm not with her. But that's my fault. Everything is my fault. If I never left that briefcase in the car, Elizabeth and Haley would be alive today and I wouldn't be feeling hurt. If I agreed to being with Nikita while she was in Division, she would have never met Daniel, Division would have never killed him and she would be here with me, in my arms, and not Owens. I wanted to die, but I knew I couldn't give up, not on Kasim, and definitely not on Nikita. So I did the only thing I could think of, I made my way towards Alex's apartment.
