Mr and Mrs Brown

Chris and I were sitting in the counsellor's office. I was about to tell the story of how we met.

"It was in the summer at the mall an-" I got cut off by Chris.

"No it wasn't at the mall it was at the movies." He said.

"Do you always have to argue with me? I'm telling you it was at the mall." I turned towards him.

"No it wasn't."He said.

"Yes it was." I said.

"No it wasn't." he repeated.

"Do you see what I have to put up with?" I asked the counsellor turning towards her.

"What you put up with what about me? You just don't care about MY needs." He said.

I raised my eyebrow at him.

"Whatever." I said.

"Don't whatever me Miss. No Sex." He said.

"Well if you weren't so lousy in bed maybe I would more often!" I shouted.

I jumped up from my chair and he did the same. We started bickering.

"I'm sensing some hostility." Mrs. Parker said at last.

I looked at her in disbelief. Anyone could have sensed that it wasn't that hard.

See let me stop for a second. My name is Chantelle my husband's name is Chris. Last month we both discovered who we really were… assassins.

I turned my attention back to the counsellor.

"As I was saying it was a hot summer's day at the mall and I had just come out of a store." I said immediately switching to story teller mode.

Me and my girls Vivienne and Jay walked out of Victoria's Secret and headed to the food court. All that shopping had made us really hungry. We headed over to the counter and placed our orders. We then sat down at the table. We were discussing our assignment that Boss Lady had given us to do the night before.

"That guard dog almost caught up with us." Vivienne said.

Me and Jay agreed.

"You know once we eliminate the Bad Boy crew. We'll be the top assassins in the world." I said.

Let me explain the Bad Boys were a group of rival assassins. We were the Black Widows after the black widow spider. Our boss was Boss Lady none of us knew her real name. Heck, she didn't even know ours! We were known by our assassin names. Mine was Kung Fu C because of my martial arts training shortened to KFC don't laugh! Jay's was Slash because she liked to slash peoples' throats instead of killing them like normal people. Vivienne was Vicious because of her aggressiveness. All we knew about the Bad Boy crew was that their boss was called Dynamite. Anyways back to the story.

"True." Jay said.

Just then a group of guys came into the food court one of them caught my eye. He was tall and definitely sexy! I found myself staring at him and his boys nudged him, said something and pointed at me.

I looked down as soon as his eyes met mine. Vivienne and Jay looked at him. Jay whispered to me," He's coming over." My head shot back up as I looked up and saw him.

"Hey." He said smiling.

"Uh…h- hey." I stuttered.

Calm down I told myself.

Vivienne and Jay took it as their cue to leave. He sat down in one of the vacant seats.

"I'm Chris." He said.

"I'm Chantelle." I said.

40 minutes later I left the food court with a date. I was ecstatic. I wasn't the only one with a date though. Vivienne and Jay all had one too with the two other dudes that walked in with Chris. I learnt their names were Shaun and Kelly.

"Isn't Kelly a girl's name?" I asked Jay.

"No my uncle's name is Kelly and he sure as hell aint no girl. If he is I wonder where his kids came from." She said.

We laughed.

Tomorrow was the day of my date. I began to smile at the thought of it.
