The morning was surprising cool for it being the middle of August. A black, unmarked sedan pulled along the street and parked a few houses down from the target house. Arthur sat in his car, wearing all black clothing. His shining blue eyes peering out of the windshield at the house in the distance. Checking the paper in his hand again, he nodded in confirmation. In his suit, he reached for his shoulder holster and pulled out his gun, running his thumb over the engraved part of his gun. As with the beginning of any of his missions, he kissed the words and got out of the car. It was very early morning/late night, the moon was new, so the only lights were the dim street lights. He easily was able to sneak around to the side of the house and worked on the back door. But it was already unlocked. How lucky! In his mind, he could see the image in his head of the house layout his father had him memorized. It was finally time to take out his target that he had been studying for a while.

Though he was big, he walked with cat like stealth through the house, through the kitchen, to the living room, and up the stairs. He made his way directly to his target room, gently opening the door as to not make any noise. As he tiptoed through the room, he reached into the other side of his shoulder holster and pulled out a suppressor, screwing it into the nozzle of his gun. He had to use it anytime he was doing a mission in a highly populated area, like a neighborhood. The bedroom was what caught his attention first. It was obviously a young girl’s room. A little frilly, it obviously had transitioned from being a little girls room to a teenager’s room. It caught his attention because his target must have been really young. He never had to take out a hit on anyone below the age of 30. How sad… So young to die? Someone wanted her dead if they paid the Myles family such big bucks for her head. He stood next to the bed, just looking at the lumps of pillows and blankets curled in the bed. A grim smile curled at the corner of Arthur’s lips. It was evil in nature. It wasn’t normal for someone to get so much excitement from killing someone. But, Arthur wasn’t fully normal either. He enjoyed his work maybe a little too much.

He was pointing the end of his gun towards where the head of the sleeping body would be on the bed. Playing around in his mind whether or not to wake them. If they continued to sleep, they would never know they were about to die. They would have just gently drifted off in their sleep. No fun in that. Arthur liked watching the fear in the eyes of his hits. It was sadistic, but it made him feel like he had so much power, it was euphoric. With the tip of his gun, he started poking the head of the bed to wake them up. The sheets began to stir and move, Arthur just smiling wildly down at the movement. But when the body sat up, all of the color drained from his face. He was probably so pale, people could see his insides. Now sitting up in the bed was a drowsy looking Eva, who was rubbing her eyes. [color=pink][i]”Arthur? What are you doing here?[/i][/color] Her honey sweet voice pierced Arthur’s soul. Arthur’s face twisted into shock and he shook his head rapidly, dropping the gun with a loud clank to the floor. No! No, no, no, no, no. She wasn’t- He couldn’t- Arthur’s legs felt weak and he had to sit on the floor. But Eva continued to stare at him from her bed as he sat on the floor. He felt like he could die then and there. Eva knew his secret. Not only that, but he had almost pulled the trigger on her.

Then it clicked in him. What would he have done if he had pulled the trigger? The image of blood coming from Eva’s head- Oh god it was too much to consider.

He hunched over, clutching his head in his hands, shaking his head. No, no, no! This has to be a nightmare. This isn’t really happening. This isn’t happening! He clenched his eyes shut, trying to force himself a wake. But none of it helped. [color=pink][i]”Arthur?...”[/i][/color] He heard her voice again, and saw her feet step out of the bed and onto the floor. He watched her hand reach down and pick up his gun from the floor, pointing it between his eyes. [color=pink][i]”You’re weak.”[/i][/color] The loud bang of a gun shot rang in Arthur’s ears, and it continued ringing as Arthur shot up in bed, feeling his body being shaken. He was in a full sweat and was panting heavily and quickly. [color=teal]”Holy shit, Arthur! Are you okay? You kept yelling in your sleep.”[/color] Arthur was breathing rapidly, his eyes bouncing all over the room. When it was finally dawning on him that it was only a dream, his breathing slowed and he began to sigh heavily in relief. That was unlike any dream with Eva he had ever had. Why the hell would his brain do something like that? 

Arthur quickly got dressed in a blank t-shirt, not changing out of his black jeans and racing downstairs. Jacob raced with him. But the house was empty. Arthur saw a manila packet on the table. A sticky note stuck to it saying “Arthur”. [color=teal]”Another mission? So early in the school year too.”[/color] Jacob said, making his was to the fridge to scavenge for frozen waffles in the freezer. Arthur flipped open the packet, looking at the photograph of his target, and older woman with very short, dark brown hair. Along the top of a piece of paper read the name “Evelyn Esperanza.” What a dumb sounding name, Arthur began to think. As he read through the paperwork. Jacob munched away on a frozen waffle, throwing one to Arthur as well. He glanced at it for a moment and shook his head. His stomach felt sick as he was still recovering from the nightmare from earlier. He needed to distract himself with something else. So, he focused everything into the manila folder.

Now that his eyes weren’t bouncing around from alcohol, he was able to full asses the layout of the home where this ‘Evelyn’ lady lived. It wasn’t a hard layout to learn, and Arthur read over the details. Payment, $100,000. Time for mission: 1 – 2 months, Buyer: [REDACTED]. Whatever name had been there, it had been blacked out with a sharpie. No doubt to avoid leaving any paper trail to whomever wanted this woman dead. Reason: Personal. Arthur smirked at the reason. He figured it must have been an inhouse job. Maybe a spiteful ex-lover. Maybe a deal gone wrong? It didn’t really didn’t matter to Arthur and the Myles family. All that mattered was the payment. Arthur pulled out his phone, seeing he had left open the conversation with Eva. His heart stopped in his chest reading her name on the screen, as his mind quickly ran through the nightmare he had. He quickly shook his head and tucked it away. No message. He wondered if she was recovering well from last night. Along with how that bruise on her neck was doing. [color=teal]”I don’t want to go home yet… Are you having to do a stake out?”[/color] Jacob asked. Arthur nodded, and Jacob looked at his phone. He didn’t seem to have any messages from someone either. [color=teal]”Well, can I stake out with you?”[/color] Arthur shrugged. He didn’t care anyway. With someone or alone, staking out was a silent task, and Arthur enjoyed the loneliness of it. But he wasn’t about to push away his friend.

Arthur went into his father’s armory and grabbed his personal gun. He wasn’t expecting to use it today, but he liked keeping it on him, just in case. He pulled on his shoulder holsters, and through a blue zipper jacket over the straps to hide them. It sucked that it was hot outside to be wearing a jacket, but he could just keep the AC running in the car. Going to the garage and getting in an unmarked, black sedan, with pitch black tinted windows. No one could see in, but they could easily see out. Arthur pulled up the address on his phone, and he and Jacob moved out to stake out the house. Arthur made sure to park a few houses down, as to not be very suspicious. Jacob reached in the glovebox and handed over a pair of binoculars, looking up at the house. It was hard to see into it, as all the blinds were pulled through. So for now, it was a waiting game to see if this lady ever came out of the house. It was 9:30 when they had started, when suddenly Jacob’s phone vibrated around 10:30. Jacob frantically grabbed his phone, and Arthur raised his eyebrow in suspicion of his friend. Hastily reading the message, Jacob began to get out of the car. [color=teal]”I gotta get to the mall. I’ll see you later, Arthur.”[/color] Before he could say goodbye, the door to the car was closed and Jacob set off on foot.

Arthur wondered what was so important for Jacob to suddenly take off like that. He was definitely lucky they weren’t that far from the mall. Arthur began to wonder for a while it if may have to do with a new drug deal of some kind. Arthur continued to observe the house, all the way til noon when he heard his phone vibrate on his lap. Picking it up, he read the screen. It was from Eva, and once again Arthur’s face paled, remembering his nightmare from earlier. It didn’t help she had texted [color=pink][i]Hope you slept well~[/i][/color] He felt sick reading the message. He couldn’t be honest and say he had a nightmare about her killing him. At the same time, he didn’t want to lie to her… at least when it wasn’t necessary for him to lie to her. He stared at his phone for a long time, trying to find what to say. [color=dodgerblue][i]Didn’t sleep well. Didn’t sleep til almost 4 am. Had to get up early to work with dad. Very tired…[/i][/color] Arthur felt it was so much easier for him to communicate with Eva over text. At least his heart wasn’t beating nearly as hard as it usually did when he heard her sweet voice. He sighed loudly, and leaned back in his seat more, pulling up his binoculars to examine the house again. His phone vibrated again, and Arthur grabbed it eagerly to see another message from Eva. But instead, it was a message from Terrance.

[color=lightblue][i]How was last night with Eva? What happened? You know my night was good--[/i][/color] There was an image of an eggplant and water droplets. Ew, too much information, Terrance. Arthur shivered slightly in disgust and reluctantly texted him back. [color=dodgerblue][i]We just kissed. Or I kissed her. She got a bruise on her neck.[/i][/color] Arthur thought about it a while and sighed. He wandered what it was like to be kissed by Eva now. She enjoyed him kissing her, didn't she? He replayed the past night in his head, laxly watching the distant house.
