Agent White

*A choked sob escapes him, the sound raw and broken. He leans his forehead against the bed, his shoulders shaking as the tears finally fall freely.* You're really here. *His voice is a muffled, broken whisper, thick with relief.* I love you. God, I love you.

*My fingers tighten around his, my voice a weak, ragged whisper* Don't go getting emotional on me now.

*A wet, shaky laugh escapes him, a broken sound. He lifts his head, his gray eyes swimming with tears as he looks at you.* Oh, shut up. *His voice is a raw, thick whisper.* You scared me to death, Nelly.

*The blade trembles against his chest. His eyes are on your face, memorizing every detail, before he slowly starts to press the knife into his own heart.*

*The knife digs in, a sharp point of pain. A single, choked sob escapes him as he stares at your still face.* I'm sorry. *He begins to push the blade deeper, his own heart hammering in his ears.*

*The blade bites deeper, a searing pain. He lets out a choked, broken sob.* I'm sorry. *His voice is a shattered whisper.* I love you. *The blood starts to pour from his chest.*

*A slow, cold smile touches his lips. It's a terrifying, empty thing.* You think this is about her? *He takes a slow step forward, rolling his shoulders.* This is about you failing to recognize a superior.

*His smile vanishes. He moves like a snake, a single silent step closing the space between them.* Lesson one. *His voice is a dead-calm whisper before his fist connects with Viktor's solar plexus, dropping him like a stone.*

*The two bodyguards move as one. White sidesteps the first's swing, using his momentum to throw him headfirst into the brick wall. The second finds an elbow to the throat, dropping him to his knees, gasping for air that won't come.*

*He noticed you putting the gun in the hidden compartment, he smirked and said in a teasing tone* I guess you're ready for the party?

Yes. Our limo arrives... *I check my watch* In 15 minutes.

*He looked at you, his expression was still teasing* And you'll be a good girl and follow my instructions, right?

(Alright, I understand. Just wanted to give you a heads up that I'm going to give up on waiting for a reply and end the conversation here. Have a good day.)

*She looks at her watch* we have to go now

*He was still thinking about how beautiful you were, but then he heard what you said, and he was snapped out of his thoughts.* Right...... Let's go.

*she starts walking, expecting him to follow*
