So here I am on a plane heading towards New York in search of a mad terrorist that a threat to national security, and the FBI came running to us. And how could I forget the lovely Six is right beside me! accompanying me on this mission.
But wait it gets better!
We undercover as a... couple.
I look out the window which I instantly regret because I just remember my fear of heights. I snap my head to look straight forward and clutch the handle on my seat so tightly that I feel my knuckles turn white. I close my eyes taking in deep breath counting to ten, I hear slight giggle beside me then I feel a hand with intertwine with mine.
I open my eyes and look down at my hands to see the other hand belongs to Six. Well as she likes to be called as her undercover name is Tris. I give her a look and she whispers in my ear.
"You're afraid of heights."
"Everybody is afraid of something." I reply taking a sharp breath realizing how close our lips are.
"Fear doesn't shut you down, it wakes you up." She says with a soft pat on my cheek. She goes back to reading her book not once letting go of my hand. She soon starts rubbing soothing circles on the back of my hand, which I won't lie helped me get through the rest of this flight.
A couple of hours later we finally landed In New York, We're now in a five-star hotel since we got like thousands of dollars for this mission and we get to keep whatever we have left!
I'm laying down on this really soft bed with Egyptian cotton sheets and I have to say if it wasn't for this mission Six wants us to get started on ASAP, I would've token a nap on the spot.
Six walks in hanging up the phone, I lift my head enough to get a look at her and wait to see what she have to say.
"I just got off the phone with Max, He says out target will be doing a trade on weapons for drugs in two days, I bet you can guess who is getting what." She says sitting down on the bed. I open my mouth to say something till my stomach starts to growl.
Six giggles and stands up holding out her hand.
"Come on, before we get this mission started, I think we should go get some food." I nod my head and stand she gives me a look.
"If we're going to be a couple you'll going to have to start taking this serious or we'll get our cover blown before we even step out the door." She says while intertwine our hands together and leads me out the door. I feel a spark course through my vain when she holds my hand. I wonder if she fells it too. If she does, she's really good at hiding it.
We decided on going grocery shopping instead of going out to eat since New York is likely to be very unhealthy and Six doesn't want us to get out of shape.
So where walking in the meat department, I'm pushing the cart and my free hand wrapped around Six waist. We browse looking at the good kind of meat to eat, and I start to think about Six words.
"If we're going to be a couple you'll going to have to start taking this serious."
I get a really bold and daring move, I get a small smirk, While Six was looking at the meant I slide my hand down her back and place it in her back pocket getting a little feel of her ass, it so soft!
I bite down on my lip and when Six finally notice that my hand isn't on her waist and on her ass, she turns around,
"Like what you feeling?" She says with her sexy smirk and I eyebrow raised. I can't find the right words to say I just nod my head.
She starts laughing and grabs my wrist and place it over her shoulder.
"Well calm down soldier, we might be a couple but that doesn't mean you have full access towards this." She says gesturing towards her body and I let out a laugh. God its been so long since I've laughed, like a real laugh and not a forced one so my friends wouldn't get suspicious.
We finally get done shopping and head back to the hotel.
Once all the food is put up, Six starts cooking dinner which is steaks and broccoli. I go take a hot shower to clear my mind, God Six is amazing, she made me laugh, nobody ever makes me laugh like she does. To bad she only my partner and instructor.
I step out of the shower and put on a muscle tee with basket ball shorts. I glance over at the clock and notice it's 9:20, huh, I guess we spent more time at the grocery store than I planned. My nose start to smell steak and steaming broccoli. Mmm, my mom would make the best steak ever. To bad I won't be able to get the chance to ever taste it again.
I step into the kitchen to see Six in black leggings and a white tank top. She has her hair in a pony tail, she looks like an angel even when she doesn't try. Six is standing over the grill cooking the steaks.
I walk up behind her and wrap my arms around her waist.
"Hey, it smells nice." I say as I give her a kiss on the cheek. She elbows me in the ribs and I double over in pain.
"We're not in public anymore." She says in a monotone voice and I laugh a little.
"Well can't blame me for getting some practice in." I say and she rolls her eyes. She hands me a plate of a t-bone steak with broccoli. I thank her and grab a bottle of water out the fridge and take a seat at the dining table. I'm about to dig in when Six slams a fork into my steak. I jump back a little and give her a look.
"Aren't you going to wait for your 'girlfriend' to sit and eat too?" She says with an eyebrow raised. I drop my fork and prop my head on one of my arms and wait for Six to sit.
Once she finally sits we dig in to the nice dinner. It was delicious, that's a fact. I wonder where she learned to cook like that, I'll ask her some other time. Once I cleaned up the dishes I grab a blanket and a pillow from the closet. I decided to be the nice guy and let Six get the only bed in the room since Max booked us a couples apartment.
I headed towards the living room but soon stopped by Six.
"What are doing?"
"You can have the bed and I'll just sleep on the couch."
"No. The bed is big enough for like four people, there's no way I'm letting one of my top initiate sleep on the couch and mess up his back before we even get this mission started. You're sleeping in the bed and that's an order. No buts about it." Six says sternly, I open my mouth to say something but soon go against it knowing she just gave me an order.
I place the pillow and blanket back into the closet and take off the muscle t-shirt and hop into bed. No need to hide my scars since they practically know everything about me.
I get under the sheets and covers just as soon as Six makes it in the bed room. She jumps into the bed giving me my space and she it staying above the sheets.
I turn over on my back and I hear a gasp. I sit up to see a shock Six face.
"What? Whats wrong?" I say all worried up.
"Y-your back! Its covered in scars, I know I didn't do those!"
"Cut the act Six, I know you know everything about me." I say in an annoyed tone.
"I only said that for show, They don't tell me about the new recruits unless I look at their files and I don't bother reading a stack of recruits when I'm busy looking at other targets files."
My eyes go wide, so she didn't know about my abusive past, only the leaders.
"I don't want to talk about it."
"Four."
"I said I don't want to talk about it Six." I say in a deep voice that reminds me of Marcus. Six pinches her lip and nods her head. I flip back over and rest my on the pillows, I wish I knew sooner or otherwise I would've kept my shirt on.
After much thinking like this I finally fall asleep.
