TO KILL OR BE KILLED
He saw her; the flames of the fire, lit up her face, that cold, murderous look she always got. She got that look every day now, so he thought nothing of it. Until he saw the body, so she had finally gone through with it. He didn't think she would, he inspected the body, and mumbled "well done," to her, she liked being appreciated, even if it was for the death of another. Then he picked her up, and kissed her soft, gentle lips, she liked that too. Even if she'd never tell him her true feelings, she didn't feel emotions, she couldn't. She was hired for one reason, to kill, or be killed. And she defiantly didn't want to be the prey of another, she was hurt this time, so when she was picked up she winced, she didn't want her boss to find out she had been injured, or he'd make a fuss, she liked this boss, she wasn't supposed to make favourites, but she really liked this boss. But the word she was searching for wasn't in her vocabulary, this word was love, she couldn't love another, it wasn't in her contract, she was hired for one reason, and one reason only, to kill another person, she didn't like this job, but it was good pay, $1,000,000 a kill.
So she picked up the envelope and said, "it'd better be all hear, or I might be mad enough to kill you,"
He laughed, the laugh you might hear from a mad man, and responded, "you wouldn't kill me, you love me too much,"
She knew this was true but she couldn't tell him that, so she just said, "bull, I do not, I don't even know the meaning of the word," and left it at that.
The next day, she ran into a person she was least wanting to see, her ex-boyfriend, after he had cheated on her, she was so mad, she killed the person he was cheating on her with. But this time he was sad, she could tell. He didn't even make his usual come-ons to her. She pondered about why he was sad until she ran into an ex-boss of hers, he wanted her back, even if she did take her time, she was still really good at what she did, but she had a new boss now, so she had to sadly decline the offer.
