Ok, apparently the original version of this chap was confusing, and after re-reading I realised that it kinda was, oops! So I've made a few adjustments, that will hopefully clear things up and I added a bit that will move the plot along a little. So enjoy and tell me if this makes more sense!
And once again, I have to say that Black Cat is not mine, Annalise and her family and any other OC are my creations, but nothing else.
Now on with the story!
Oh and, italics mean a flashback
Don't Pretend You Know Me
Chapter Five
Repercussions
Annalise groaned as she woke up, she had a splitting headache and being face first on the floor wasn't helping.
But, she knew, the mission was successful and another enemy of Chronos was dead, even if she had to drug herself so she wouldn't be a suspect. Sometimes she really wished she didn't have to assassinate someone at a party that she had already been invited to, slipping drugs and toxins into people's drinks without them noticing and making sure that it was her target that received her specially made brew of lethal plants and not someone else was incredibly difficult while trying to remain social at the same time.
Luckily she is very good at her job.
But now she had to deal with the after effects of the drug she used while pretending that she knew nothing of what happened, and it didn't help that yesterday's conversation had made her incredibly upset, and she couldn't afford to lose her cool now. But his words kept running through her mind over and over again.
"This isn't who you are!"
Annalise subtly shook her head so she could focus, a detective was asking for her statement. This wasn't the time for her to lose her focus, she had to leave before anyone started to suspect that she was the one who killed the Governor.
"I didn't mean it."
She finished her statement, leaving out the details that would send her to jail, and claimed that she needed to rest as she was worried her health could be in danger and she needed to rest as she had to work in the morning.
Leaving, she had one thing running through her mind, over and over again, never stopping.
"You're not the friend I once had."
-Line break_
Train was sitting on the couch in the hotel, elbows on his knees and his face in his hands. Today was just not his day. In the background he could vaguely hear Sven and Eve talking, but they were mostly drowned out by his raging headache and those words spoken from yesterday.
"What the hell happened yesterday?!" Sven whispered sharply.
"I don't know, he made me leave." Eve replied, apologetic.
"Eve, you have to go."
"But-"
"GO!"
"Didn't you watch them?"
"They saw me."
"She's not that good at spying, is she?'
"I'm sorry Sven."
"What do you want me to do? Apologize for living!"
Train couldn't take it anymore.
"I'm going for a walk." He said as he simply stood up and left, leaving Sven and Eve dumbstruck.
"What's his problem?"
-Line break-
Train sat on the stair well gasping, what was wrong with him today? Ever since the encounter he had with Annalise yesterday he had been feeling like Sven, Eve and Rins were doing a conga line on his head and that his stomach decided to become an acrobat.
Then of course he remembered Annalise's little 'demonstration' and groaned, this of course meant that he had to see her again and he knew that neither of them wanted that so soon after what happened.
But luckily for Train he didn't need to think so much because at that moment his lunch decided to make an encore.
-Line break
Rins felt like pulling her hair out. There was nothing on this woman other than what was on her fansites and in magazines. Absolutely nothing!
Growling in frustration, she slammed her fist into the desk she was sitting at. It seemed she was going to have to pull in a few favours, some government favours.
She was hoping to save those for later.
Sighing, she turned to pick up her phone to make the call when her computer chimed to tell her that she had just received an email. She was about to dismiss it when the name of the sender caught her eye.
Opening it, her eyes widened at the content.
An entire file on one Annalise White.
Cyber Cookies for whoever reviews, well... maybe not... but reviews make me happy and make me feel guilty for not updating which makes me write. So review!!
And if you still didn't get it, the flashbacks were little snippets from the conversation between Train and Annalise from the day before, and apparently something big happened.... Hmmm
Anyway, review and don't forget that any bits of advice or ideas are always welcome!!
