《Me and You: The Beginning》27.

A man entered the house.
"Stop," he said, "You know that Aurora is valuable to our boss Tom."
"So I can't have a little fun with her?" He pinned me tighter.
"No," the man said matter-of-factly. Tom got off me and shot me a hard look.
"You're so fucking lucky," he said icily, "What are you doing here?"
"We have business to conduct," the man said.
"Does this concern me?" I looked at him. He doesn't appear to be the man from the meet and greet.
"No," he looked at me, "You have a specific time frame. After that time frame has ended, you will meet the boss."
"Who are you?" I asked blatantly.
"I am Grayson," he said, "but I am not allowed to show you my face yet. The boss has requested me not to."
"Did you kill Danielle?" I asked menacingly.
"Not me specifically, but my group yes," he said nonchalantly, "We are a group of elite assassins hired by very wealthy people."
"You had your own wife killed?" I spat at Tom, "You are a sick bastard."
"Tom had no idea of what we did," he corrected me, "We decided that Danielle was getting too out of hand. She actually called the night she died, to have us kill Tom."
I stared at him in shock, "That's a lie."
"There's no need for me to lie," he stretched out his arms, "The police completely disregard our work. If you go to them and give this information, they will turn a blind eye towards you and say that you're crazy."
He's joking. He had to be fucking joking.
"What?" I grimaced, "How did I become part of this?"
"Danielle wanted you dead," he said simply, "She hired us to take you out, but the boss decided you were valuable. We kidnapped you to buy some time before she took matters into her own hands."

"Why am I so important?" I eyed him.
"I cannot disclose that information to you," he said, "You must leave now."
Gina's POV
"Hey Jamie," I said, "Can you give me a ride back home? My parents should be back."
"Sure," she said quietly.
"I'll go with you Jamie," Alex touched her arm.
"Thanks babe," she smiled, "I don't think I'll be going to school this week guys. Knowing my dad, I'm sure he won't be organizing a thing."
"Do you think he hurt her?" Alex looked at her.
"I don't know what else to think besides it wasn't suicide," Jamie said matter-of-factly, "Do you guys have any ideas?"
"Nope," Alex and I said simultaneously.
"I think your dad had something to do with it though," Alex said quietly.
"I think so too," Jamie agreed.
I thought that it was bigger than just Jamie's father. I highly doubt Jamie's mother would commit suicide, after what she did to Alex's mom. Something else is up. We arrived at my house and I told Jamie thanks. I gave them both kisses, and entered home.
"Why aren't you in school?"
Tom's POV
"Why is she so important?" I said angrily.
"The boss said so," Grayson said.
"What if she causes problems for us?" I countered.
"She won't," Grayson promised, "However, if she does betray us, the boss will decide what happens to her."
"I pay you people countless amounts of money so I can do whatever the fuck I want," I said bitterly.
"You have been doing whatever you want for a long time Tom," Grayson countered, "She is off limits." The door opened and Jamie came inside with one of her friends. Grayson placed his mask on quickly and hid.

"Why aren't you in school?" I asked her.
"I have a funeral to plan" she said coldly, "not that you care anyways."
"Jamie," I ran my fingers through my hair, "Your mom and I may have had our differences, but I did love her."
"When?" Jamie placed down her stuff, "Twenty fuckibg years ago? No wait! During your sessions with all the little blondes? Did you lover her then?"
"Your mother did all the fucking around!" I silenced her, "All she cared about was getting promoted. She said 'it's only for the money'. She slept with an innumerable amount of people."
"Why did you say people and not men?" She eyed me suspiciously.
"Many women wanted promotions as well," I spread my hands, "It was a team effort."
"You're disgusting," she spat at me, "Inly you could say ill things about her to try and make yourself look good." She stormed upstairs and took the girl with her.
Wasn't that Aurora's daughter? I looked around to ask Grayson but he was gone.
"Well hello to you too," I dropped my stuff eyeing my parents.
"Hi honey," my mom hugged me "We missed you." They were gone for over a week, no calls, no texts.
"I'm sure you did," my eyes rolled. I was honestly not in the mood for whatever this is.
"Again," my father said heavily, "Why aren't you in school?" I sighed. I should have come home later so they wouldn't be suspecting anything.
"One of my friend's mom passed away. Committed suicide. I stayed with her for comfort," I tried to explain.
"Oh honey that's terrible!" My mom said sadly.
"Can you cool it with the fake interest, mom?" I shook my head, "I need to lie down. Can we make this quick?"
"Will you be going to school tomorrow?" My dad ignored my statements.
"I guess," I shrugged, "It really depends on how I feel. I'm extremely exhausted."
"You will have to be out of school for the week," he said excitedly, "I have some good news for you!"
"Maybe you shouldn't be so mean to him," I rubbed Jamie's shoulders.
"Alex you heard what he said," she argued, "He only cares about himself."
I sighed, "That might be true, but I'm sure he had an ounce of love for her somewhere."
"He only loves himself and his money," she said defiantly. I don't know what to do to make her feel any better, so I just hugged her.
"I forgot my stuff downstairs," I remembered, "I'll be right back." I headed downstairs and grabbed my bag at the door. Suddenly, I felt a presence behind me and I swiftly turned around. I was pinned to the door.
By Jamie's father.
"Mr. Brooks, what are you doing?" I said softly.
"Your mother doesn't want me," he said sinisterly, "So I'll have my way with you."
"I don't think this is appropriate," I tried to move but he so close. I could feel the bulge in his pants and I wanted to vomit. This was disgusting and revolting.
"You're a big girl," he smiled, "You can make your own decisions."
"Dad what the fuck are you doing?" Jamie came up behind him and whacked him in the head with a frying pan.
"I am calling the police."
"You're getting married!" My mom blurted out.
What the fuck?
