Power of Love
Chapter 2: Let's Run Away
Nobody's POV
The next day, Michael got up from his bed and walked straight to the bathroom. He started to run the shower and stepped inside. The warmth of the water was relieving him from all the stress that his job is giving him. After the shower he went to the kitchen to eat some cereal, he didn't feel like cooking because of what happened to him and Nikita. Nikita, when he just thought of Nikita he wanted to go see her and comfort her. He lost his appetite and got dressed, got to his car and drived away to Division.
Nikita's POV
I woke up, showered and I walked straight to the cafeteria. I pick two apples and orange juice. In the middle of my breakfast, I saw Michael walked through the corridor and glanced at me. I felt my heart break when I remembered about the night that we kissed and he just pushed me away. I felt like crying so I decided to run back again to my room. But before I got to my room a muscular man blocked my way, I looked up and saw Michael staring at me with those green eyes I love.
"Where do you think you're going?" He said with his husky voice.
"I forgot something in my room, I..am going to get it." I said shyly "Well, you can get it later because I'm gonna teach you to develop your shooting skills" He said leading me to the shooting range.
Michael's POV
I lead nikita to the shooting range not just because I want to help her but because I want to spend time with her. I can't fight this feeling anymore i am totally falling in love with Nikita, a recruit. I know that it is forbidden to have a relationship inside Division. But I don't know if I can handle this anymore.
"This is a rifle use it to shoot that target, it is also good to use because it makes less soun." I said normally.
"Okay, but how do I hold it correctly?" She asked with her bangs covering her eyes.
"Put you right hand here, and your left hand here and aim the target." I said
I moved her bangs with my fingers so that she could see better. Then I saw her beautiful dark eyes and stared at them for a while.
"What's wrong? Is there something in my eyes?" She asked nervously, which I think is cute.
"No. Its just... nevermind." I smiled anxiously.
Nikita's POV
I noticed that Michael is feeling anxious when he gave me that smile, the smile that I always love. i suddenly felt guilty, what if he's uncomfortable with me. So i started to speak up.
"Um... if your feeling wrong about this I will just go back to the cafeteria. I said hoping that he would just let me go and let me cry inside my room.
"No, no I'm not feeling wrong I'm just tired." He said
I want to know what was happening and I want to talk about the other night to him, about us.
"Michael... about the other night-" I started but he cut me off.
"Yes okay Nikita the other night I loved it... I feel something for you I just can't fight it anymore... but... but I don't want to break protocol and I- " He said but I cut him off with a kiss.
Oh my God I can't believe it i'm kissing the man of my dreams, I'm kissing Michael. I don't want this moment to end I just want to melt to him.
Michael's POV
Nikita and I were kissing in the middle of the shooting range. I started to kissed back and i felt her arms snaked around my neck and I put my hand around her waist. I was enjoying the moment of warmth and bliss but suddenly Percy popped in my head and i pulled back slowly.
I looked into Nikita's eyes and its full of hope, confusion and love.
"Do you love me?" I asked anxiously. Hoping that she would say yes.
"Yes, I love you." She said straight and clear.
"Let's Runaway!" I said with so much energy.
"I like that idea." She said with a flirty grin.
Nobody's POV
Michael told Nikita to go pack her things in her room and wait until he will call her to go. Nikita obliged.
Michael went straight to Birkhoff and asked a favor.
"Hey Birkhoff!" Michael said "Hey Mikey! What can I do for you?" Birkhoff said quickly.
"Can you do me a favor?" Michael asked hopefully.
Birkhoff knew right what was this about "Let me guess, you want me to jam the signal of you tracker so that you can run off with Niki." Birkhoff said quietly.
"What the... how did you know?" Michael asked curiosly.
"Remember I'm the shadow walker... I own this place I can see every corner of Division." Birkhoff said boastfully.
"Well, can you do it?" Michael asked hoping that he his friend will say YES.
"Sure I can, but... there is a condition." Birkhoff said Michael was alarmed. "What is the condition?"
"I will have to come with you two... and don't worry I have a nice big mansion that has a beach nearby so you can stay there. Birkhoff said.
Michael was more than happy, they woul have the perfect life.
"Sure, you can come with us." Michael said "Great! Tell me the plan." Birkhoff said wondering what was the plan.
"Okay the plan is I will tell percy that I've seen great fighting skills in Nikita and I will asked his permission that I will take Nikita to the outside and let her have a better training, with me of course."
Michael said.
"And if he declines?" Birkhoff asked "No he won't. Percy trusts me so much he would accept the offer" Michael said "Okay I will prepare our signal jammer and you can go have a chit chat with the big guy" Birkhoff said
Nikita's POV
I started packing my things and I am so excited that me and Michael, Michael and me will run away together just the two of us living together,
After I finished packing I turned on the radio and listened to my favorite love songs.
Then the door slammed open.
Birkhoff came inside and slammed the door closed. He walked towards me and said.
"Niki!" You have to get ready." He said.
"Nerd? What are you talking about?" I asked curiously.
"I know the runaway between you and Michael." He said I started to panic. How did he know?
"How did you know?" I asked nervously.
"No need to worry, I'm coming with you too!" He said excited.
I nodded and listened to him while he explains the plan.
"We leave at 12:00 midnight sharp, you got that?" He said "Okay!" I said.
"Just wait for us here we will fetch you then we will run away ." He said quickly.
"Great!" I said not wanting to wait for more time.
And then the Nerd left my room and I started to wait for midnight
