The birds chirped in the morning as I still laid on the bed in exhaustion over Levy's chest, his heartbeat like a lullaby. Our legs were tangled and as I sighed in peace, I stared at Levy while he slept like a baby, his steady breathing as his jaw glinted underneath the morning light that escaped through the lavish curtains was my kind of morning sight to wake up to.

I sat up on the bed, trying to remove my legs from his slowly and without waking him up. We had a rough night of blaming, planning and assumptions so I didn't want to wake him up since we slept after midnight in a troubled state.

At nine in the morning, I stood up with a hopeful smile on my face and grabbed the telephone to order breakfast so I could surprise Levy. We deserved a break once in a while and I was sure that the men wouldn't interrupt us so early in the morning. After I kindly ordered on the phone, my feet followed the swirls on the carpet leading to the serene balcony displaying the bright early birds perched on top of the balcony railing.

In my red silk nightdress, my gleaming cerulean irises took in the sporty couples who ran on the sidewalk of the hotel and the little girls who played hop-scotch with an excited smile on their faces. That was the kind of morning I preferred, I used to always gaze at people playing or walking or even running, I found it satisfying. This place allowed me to think about what would happen next for us.

Strong arms wrapped around me and feathered kisses on my exposed back. "Morning, beautiful," his morning voice made all the negative thoughts about our future deflate, "breakfast came, we should eat and go swimming if you want." He suggested and I nodded.

It was just the second day and so much has happened, if events like these happen to continue then I would have a heart attack due to overboard adrenaline.

I decided not to tell Levy about that man almost molesting me in an elevator, I bet he even discharged the cameras just to taunt me with intimidation.

Levy was talking to his dad after we ate a delightful breakfast that consisted of butter and cream pancakes, chicken sausages, fruits and beans with two tall cups of orange juice. As we planned, Levy told his dad about everything from my determination to go with him to the man who had our tape.

I wondered if they had wives waiting for them at home, after all, Levy said that they were a family but who would even want to marry them much less stay with them?

"The plan with dad is done, he will call them and distract them while we get the videotape at night," he interpreted carefully to make me understand, "dad told me about the place of the video and he assigned a spy to investigate their next move, so we're good for now. Other than that, he also scolded me about how impulsively stupid we were to sleep together." He rolled his eyes and my cheeks reddened at the fact that his dad knew that we slept together.

"Hey, dad, we slept together while two gang members were out hunting us for their next meals, it was fun!" I cringed at my extremely imaginative mind and my face flushed at the horrifying thoughts like these.

Levy's hand held mine, filling up the spaces between my fingers like they were made just to fit between mine and I found myself smiling up at the suave guy, the one who loved me unconditionally. Our love story was far different from others, we were insanely compatible with each other with rough ditches often but we still found ways to be with each other.

I changed into my cute matching red bra and panties that had black hearts on them and let my rose gold hair down, freeing it from the painful hairband and letting it happily rest to my waist. Taking a look in the bathroom mirror, I looked astonishingly glowy with brightened blue eyes and pink soft lips, not to forget about the natural highlight of my high cheekbones. For once in my life, I could admit that I was delicately pretty.

With a robe over my underwear and flip-flops, I emerged out of the bathroom to the view of my boyfriend's tight abs and broad shoulders, his eyes took me in from head to toe with darkened eyes. He held a hand out for me and I took it, buzzing excitedly about how awesome the pool would be.

We talked about the plan that would happen at night and how we would get there, our backup plan if something went wrong and the precautions we would take.

"So we sneakily go inside while your dad's spy distracts them and we find the locker that is drilled into the wall with the code 1548 and take the video, Mr. Clarence and Mr. Denis will be outside in another gang meeting at ten pm," I said out loud and Levy nodded, telling me about the extra details that I missed about their documents and their killing plan.

I was flung by Levy into the pool the moment I got rid of my robe and flip-flops, placing them beside the chairs. I squealed at the cold water as Levy jumped, splashing me more in the process.

We continued to enjoy the sun by swimming through the crystal waters of the pool and smile at each other with hope glinting into our eyes. I hoped that we end this deal and go back to a stable life as his dad did. We were quite thankful for his dad that he could find a loophole and a plan for us because Levy wasn't as experienced as his dad.

Screams suddenly erupted and my eyes directly averted to the changing watercolour of the pool.

It was filled with blood.
