This spawned from my "I've always wanted to write one of those cliché fanfics where Sora is a hired assassin and falls in love with the person he's suppose to kill; Kairi." It sucks, badly.

"Some Random Thing" That's what it's titled in my notebook.
X.o.X
A scream erupted from the girl as I removed my gloved hand from her mouth after slamming the door shut. "God, girl, shut up. As long as you don't make that much noise, I'm not gonna hurt you." I stared at the crimson haired girl through sprawled out chocolate tinted bangs.
"Yeah right!" She yelled back in a ragged tone.
"Just trust me." I muttered, biting my bottom lip. I kind of felt sorry for her.
'Sora, don't let emotions interfere. This is your job. You know what will happen if you don't do what you're told…' My boss's words echoed throughout my mind.
"How could I trust some one that just kidnapped me?" The red head asked in a hiss, with an ice cold glare in addition.
"Listen…It's just my job. I don't mean anything by it." I answered in a small tone, looking to the steel wall as a distraction. My emotions were beginning to interfere again… It had happened before; just not like this…
This…this was something that felt much stronger than before. I wanted to protect her, not hand her off to my boss like an item; as I had done to many people before. What was so different about her?
"Don't mean anything by it?" She repeated in a disgusted voice, "Why didn't you get a normal job like most people your age, like at the movies or the mall?"
"…I was forced…" I trailed off, then asked in a small tone, "Hey, what's your name…?"
"Why do you want to know?" The girl sent daggers through her sapphire eyes.
"Just--…Please?" I looked down at the ground again, feeling an unfamiliar warmth creep across my cheeks. What was this?
"…Kairi." She answered in a softer tone. I looked up with a surprised expression, seeing that she almost looked as if she was actually sympathetic for being harsh earlier.
"Kairi, huh?" A smile tugged at my lips as I said her name, "Well, Kairi, my boss is out of town until tomorrow, so…I have to stay the night with you here to make sure you don't escape."
"You're asking me to trust you when you won't trust me?" Kairi responded with a raised eyebrow.
"It's my orders; besides, I'm surprised you haven't tried to beat me to the ground attempting to escape as most do." I stated with a small and hollow laugh.
"…I wouldn't even be strong enough to try." She replied, biting her bottom lip and tucking some of her hair behind her ear.
"That may be true, but…" I dug into my coat pockets and pulled out a rope, "I still have to do this."
"What?" She almost exclaimed; a fearful expression coming upon her face.
"I'm sorry, but I have to," I whispered into her ear as I tied the rope around her small wrists, "There are video cameras everywhere; I have to pretend I'm doing it right. Just so you know, that's not tied correctly so you could remove it anytime you want. But please, don't for now…" I backed up, standing straight again.
"Why are you doing this?" She asked in a whisper, gratefulness shining in her sapphire orbs.
"…Because I don't want to hurt you." I muttered, staring off in another direction to avoid her eyes.
Why was she having this effect on me?
"Those are pretty strong words for someone you just met." The redhead stated with a small smile.
"I know." I answered under my breath, still making it audible.
"Hey, you never told me your name." Kairi stated with a slight tilt of her head. My cheeks burned as the words 'God, she's so cute.' rang in my thoughts.
"I shouldn't have even asked for your name. I'm not suppose to become attached to anyone I have to capture, because it will only hurt more later on." I replied quietly, hoping that she would get the point and not question any further.
"…What's going to happen to me?" The girl asked in a small whisper; her eyes seeming to be brimmed with tears.
"I-I'm not suppose to say." I lied; gulping as I turned away from her. How was I suppose to say that I had to kill her?
…An even better question; how am I going to make myself do it?
"Well…since you can't tell me that, can you at least tell me your name?" She asked again, squirming slightly at the discomfort of the rope rubbing against her wrists.
I sighed deeply; running a hand through my spiky brunette hair before looking up at her, locking my sapphire eyes onto hers, "It's Sora."
"Is there someone in there?" A stranger's voice called from behind the door. I started at the red-head.
She wouldn't…
"Yes! Help--"
She did.
The girl had also gotten up from the chair she was 'tied' to. 'The boss definitely isn't going to be happy with me…' I thought to myself before grabbing Kairi and placing my lips on hers, cutting her off mid-sentence. I was so absorbed with the sweet taste of her lips that for quite a few minutes I failed to notice that she was actually kissing me back. I pulled away forcefully; my mind screaming, 'I AM SCREWED. SO SCREWED!'
"Heh, pretending to act nice so that I might help you escape, but turn on me when a real rescuer appears? As much as I would like to let you go, Kairi, I can't." I commented with a slight laugh, breathing heavily.
"T-that's not…" Kairi stammered, "…look, I'm sorry. But when your life is being threatened, you'll do anything to find a way to get out of danger."
"I know how that feels…" I trailed off, staring at the concrete floor yet again, "That's how I live everyday of my life."
"Why don't you run? C'mon, you have the key to that door; both of us could leave right now! You're too nice of a person, Sora. You shouldn't live like this…" She said in a desperate voice, staring at me with pleading eyes.
"How do you know how I should live, Kairi? You don't know me. You've only known me for maybe an hour. Just because I kissed you and tried to help you out doesn't mean you know everything about me!" I exclaimed, walking to the chair she was tied to and picked up the rope.
"Sora…" I heard her say in a voice that sounded as if she were on the verge of the tears.
"I knew I shouldn't have told you my name…it just makes everything more difficult now…" I stated; walking to where she stood and gently grabbing her wrist and leading her back to the chair, "I'm gonna tie you up for real this time, okay?"
She gave a small nod and I wrapped the rope around both of her wrists, tying them behind the chair. I then backed away from her, walking backwards and plopping down onto a cot that was in the room. The crimson haired girl glanced at me, and I noticed small droplets gliding down her cheeks. I felt a stab of pain, but only looked away knowing that I would have to get use to it.
After a few minutes of quiet sobs and sniffling, I couldn't take it anymore.
"Kairi, please stop crying…It's hurting me to just sit here and watch, and listen without doing anything." I said in a quiet voice, picking myself up from the bed to stand up.
"It's alright for me to know nothing about you because I've only known you for an hour but it's okay for you to say stuff that sounds like you're madly in love with me?" The red head gave a hurt laugh, "You just really can't make up your mind, can you?"
"I know it sounds strange; but it's really the way I feel. The only reason I'm saying you don't know me is because I'm usually a cold, heartless murderer. But, around you, this side of me shows up. And it's just so strange because all of those emotions are brand new to me and I don't know how to react." I rapidly outpoured my thoughts to her.
"Just do what you feel is right. Listen to your heart." Kairi replied with a small smile, and I wiped the remaining tears off her face with my thumb.
"I'm going to." I replied, throwing off the black trench coat and black leather gloves that I was required to wear during missions; revealing a plain navy blue t-shirt and jeans, "I've decided that I'm going to try to live as a normally as any other fifteen year old. Although I know I'll never really be normal because no matter how far away I get from here, my boss will be right behind me…" I explained with a sigh, as I untied the ropes that bound her to the chair.
