FALLING FOR A CRIMINAL. 4. Fear
Ava.I hummed as I walked up the stairs, a smile starting to creep up my face when I remembered how Keith kissed the top of my head.I was glad he didn't make things awkward, if he was someone like me, our relationship would have been ruined. I scoffed lightly to myself as I stripped out of my clothes. Everyone had left for the day and I ignored the pang of loneliness I always felt whenever it was just me. Adeola's place was only a walking distance away from here though, so I guess I should be thankful for that.Thing was, she was always so tired after work that I always hated to disturb her on her free days. Everyone always assumed because I was an introvert, I liked to be left alone. Truth is, since my parents died...I've craved companionship more times than I could count.Dating was out of the question though. I rarely went out. The only reason I'd not be alone for all of eternity was if a hot guy would randomly appear in my room.Clubs or parties weren't my scene, and it was pret
FALLING FOR A CRIMINAL. 3. Is it too early to kill for her?
Tobias.I want her.I took one look at her bright blue eyes and that was the only thing I could think of. I want her.She was so...small. She had silver blonde hair that flowed freely down her back. Light blue eyes that were almost transparent. A heart shaped face and pouty lips. Freckles were scattered across her nose and I got close enough to count them. They were nine in total.Everything about her screamed perfection. I was desperate to know what she was hiding underneath the baggy clothes she wore. She looked so fragile, I half expected her wrists to snap in two when I held her small hands in mine as I helped her up.She never stopped blushing, that was adorable as fuck. I wasn't expecting her to pay me a compliment and that threw me off. I almost asked her out for a drink but I didn't know how. I was nervous she'd say no. I lied about being a regular, I caught a glimpse of her throwing the trash out when I drove past here earlier today and I just knew I had to be back.I never d

Ava.Mrs Min left hours ago and it had been busy since then. I welcomed the rush of the never ending customers, at least that stopped me from thinking too hard about what happened earlier.I made a fool of myself and then made it a point to avoid Keith because I was embarrassed. I wanted to bury myself alive.When he pressed up against me earlier- unknowingly, if I may add- I panicked and the moment he pulled away, I grabbed the doughnuts from him then proceeded to rush out of the kitchen. I was doing a pretty good job at that, well. Till I slipped.Yes, I slipped. Not only that but in the process of me reaching out to grab onto something to break my fall, I pulled on the open bag of flour on the table and dumped it all over myself. I was mortified.You know what made it worse?The fact that Keith, being his usual nice self, tried to help me. He helped me up and kept asking if I was okay and I just had to embarrass myself more, because for some reason, I decided to burst into tears ri

Ava.''I could have sworn I told you before I left.'' She gasped. ''I'm so sorry, Ava.''I waved her off. ''It's okay, Mia.''''You sure?'' She sniffled and I reached a hand out helplessly. ''You sure you aren't mad at me?''I sputtered. ''I'd never!''She immediately brightened and pulled me in for a hug. ''You're an angel.''I blushed and tucked a hair behind my ear as I pulled back. ''Y-yeah, you too.''She rushed off and I let out a breath of relief, only to jump when a voice suddenly said next to my ear,''Did you just call Mia an angel?''I turned to stare into the stern eyes of my manager and best friend, Adeola. I coughed nervously and shrugged.''She's not an angel! She's a- a fucking devil!'' Adeola exclaimed and I winced.''Please, don't curse.'' I mumbled and she sighed, hugging me from behind apologetically.''Stop letting her walk all over you, Ava.'' She sighed. ''She knows you're too sweet and she's always playing on your emotions.''I stopped to think.Was Mia actuall

Reaper. I stared at the blood splattered across my white shirt in disgust. I'll probably throw it out. It's ruined now. I turned to face my victim with a sigh, ''Did I not...warn you not to make a mess?'' ''You fucking bastard!'' He yelled, blood flying out of his bloodied mouth. The blood landed on my pants this time. ''I hope you rot in hell. Fuck you! Fuck y-'' I yanked his head back by the hair and slowly raised a knife up to his eyeball. Trying to calm my breathing, I started to draw circles across his left eyelid with the knife. ''I told you...don't. Make. A. Mess.'' He stayed still, his eyes fixated on the knife. He probably thought I was going to shove the knife through his eyeball.. Or maybe slit his throat. I should slit his throat, you know, give him a quick and easy death but he lost that chance. He made a mess. He lost that chance when he made a mess. Now...I get to have fun. I pulled away from him abruptly and he stared at me, confusion written all over his face.
