Mindi and I entered the warehouse, the mention of Killa7 made me kinda confused and nervous. I hadn't heard his name in a year and I didn't want to remember that night.

"Hey, Kyle look at me. What's wrong?" she asked, I sat down on the cot and just shook my head.

"the guy mentioned Killa7….." I said, trailing off, she put her finger on my lips and shushed me she leaned down and kissed my lips and I stopped thinking about it, just went blank, my lips growing in warmth from the friction. She straddled over my lap; legs open as she just leaned me up against the wall, deepening the kiss. I stand up slowly, lifting her into the air. She giggled as I leaned her against the wall, she started removing my costume, as I did hers. She was moving all around my body, clearly trying to turn me on more than I already was by her presence. Our clothes were hitting the ground with a familiar sound as we neared the cot, falling onto it and continuing our mischievous activities.


The warehouse was familiar now that I had slept there countless times over the past year; it was like my second home. I even had clothes there to change into. It was the next morning; I was looking at Mindi's sleeping face as the sunlight poured in through the blinds. I didn't want to move, didn't want to get up, didn't want to go to school. I just wanted to stay here, with Mindi's heartbeat bouncing against my bare chest as she slept. Her skin was so warm, so soft on mine. I felt the sealed bullet wound, she was so strong through all of that, while I could barely breathe. She shifted a bit; I pulled my hand back, hoping I hadn't woken her. Thankfully she still slept, smile still on her face. I laid my head back down on the pillow and left my arms wrapped around Mindi as I went back to sleep.


"I'm sorry Marcus, I lost track of time." I was awoken by Mindi's voice. "No, I didn't stay home deliberately" I rolled over and saw Mindi pacing the floor with her cell phone in hand.

"Marcus, I am aware that this is a really important year for me." I slid my legs over to the edge of the cot and rose from the mattress.

"Alright Marcus!" she yells, hanging up. She drops the phone onto the ground and looks over at me.

"Oh, you're awake…" she says, running her hands through her hair. I got out of bed, walking over to her nude; she was clothed in one of my t shirts.

"You know, I woke up this morning early enough to go to school."

"I'm glad you didn't though." She said, walking over and kissing me,

"But isn't Marcus pissed?"

"I really don't care if he's pissed or not." She says, breaking the kiss and diving back in.

"You know, you really shouldn't have put this on." I said, smiling.

"Why?" I flip my knife out and cut a straight line down the back, dropping the shirt off her body and to the ground. She laughs loudly as I sit on the bed and she sits down on my lap. she kissed my lips tenderly, I leaned back against the wall, Mindi continued to kiss me and I fell over, she laid on top of me, the only sound between us was the faint smack of our lips, before she shifted up my body and we went at it again.


I awoke in the middle of the night to a loud noise. I slid out of bed, pulling my boxers and pajama pants on. I grabbed the mounted 1911 off the wall and cocked it, I walked over to the door, gun at eye level, I peered through the peephole, I saw no one. I waited about three minutes, then I opened the door, stepping out into the hallway, there was no one there. I decocked the pistol, turning and walking back into the room, shutting the door and locking it behind me.


It was Saturday, I was thankful for that too, I wanted to spend the whole day with Mindi without any interruption at all. We walked down to Atomic Comics for a coffee, chatting as we normally do, I couldn't help but smile the entire day while I was with her, she just had that power over me.

"Have you talked to Marcus?" I ask, she glances out the window,

"Nope."

"Don't you think you should?"

"Probably, later." She replies, smiling widely and kissing me softly but sensually on my lips.

"That's okay with me." I say, smiling back.
