Chapter 2

'Splash,' the water sounded when the FBI agent ran her trainers after being dismissed by Cooper. Liz tried to run to the beat of the music booming in her ear. She had to run. She don't know why, but it helped her to calm down. Her heart was hammering in her rib cage after a long running DC park

"Agent Keen, I think this time you need to stand down," the FBI agent's ear stings as she heard her boss taking up Red's advice this time. Her mouth hangsopen as she tries to utter an excuse but nothing could be wanted to defend herself.

"I don't know what is happening between you two, but I hope you can settle it. This task force is depending on you two. If it doesn't work out, we call this whole thing off. Cooper continues. He leans back and shrugs his shoulders.

"Sir. I hope you can understand but my relationship with Reddington is…"

"I will not see you until Monday. This is an order," her boss cuts her mid-sentence.

Lizzie stares at him and nods. "Yes sir." She doesn't have the energy to argue . Her anger boils up, and thanks to the wonderful concierge of crime, she got three days off that she doesn't need.

"I felt sorry for you agent Keen to cope in all this mess. I hope you can be patient and try to use those day off to come back in a perfect state on Monday," Copper advises before she leaves. She knows that her boss felt the tension in the air between her and Reddington and left her to fix it. She shook her head to clear her mind and goes to her office to grab her things.

She stopped running as she tries) to catch her breath under the shade of a tree. After she left the post office and went to her motel in a 'kettle about to blow up' condition,she sat down on the couch and leaned her head against the back of the couch. She sighed and tried to think of what she should do. It's still early for dinner. She wanted to soak in a hot water bath but as she saw her trainers behind the door she felt the urge to run so here she is.

She sat down and leaned against the tree. The breeze cools and calms her body. This is the first time she has felt at peace this entire month. Her eyes droop and she nearly dozes off for the second time that day. Suddenly a familiar scent of scotch, cigar and a hint of cologne that was probably named 'Raymond Reddington,'came knocking her . Just great.

She sighs and opensher eyes slowly. "Hello lizzie," a generous smile on his face.

"What do you want?" She stood up and grunts, looking away from him. God, why did he always have to show up. In the corner of her eyes she saw his usual three piece of suit but without the tie and suit jacket.

"I think we need to talk. Look,sweetheart, I'm sorry if," Red tilts his head and tries to search her face.

"No! I don't have anything to say to you. Just leave me alone," Liz felt her eyes water. She needed to get away from him before she broke down in front of him. Trying to pass him she feels his hand catching her.

"Lizzie just please listen to me. I care about you! I cannot bear to lose you. Please believe me." Red pleaded.

"Why? Why the hell would you cared about me?I asked you why, but you never tell me!" Her anger rises. She turns her body infront of him and releases her wrist from his grasp. Red's eyes were watery. He looked away and took a deep breath.

"It's dangerous for you to know right now. I promise you that I will tell you one day." He holds back the urge to cry. His heart drops when he see's Lizzie's hatred towards him . And it was all his fault. He wanted to lift her and grab her into his warm embrace. He wanted to hold her as he did when she cried about the music box. Hugging her to show her that he will be there for her. He wanted to let his lips linger on her forehead telling her she will always have him and she will be fine, but in her state right now, he needed to be patient.

"That's what you always say. And for your info,just please stop pretending to care about me! I'm sick of your charades!" Then and there Lizzie broke. She couldn't stand being betrayed by the one man that she thought she could count on. The man that she thought would always be there by her side. The person that she had complicated feelings for.

"I never pretend lizzie. I care very deeply for you. You are my second chance sweetheart. I…I…" Red tried to say the words but he couldn't.

"You what?Stop lying!". Lizzie shouted while pushing his chest.

"I, I…I love you! .He said at last. "I love you, sweetheart." A tear slipped down his cheek, smiling. Lizzie stops pushing him.

Before Lizzie can respond Red's face turns into one of panic, "Lizzie!", Red shouts enveloping her against his body.

BANG BANG.

And the world turns black.
