Python

C H A P T E R 27

I was sitting with Charlotte at the sitting room eating the third bag of Cheetos. I was suprised to see her at the door with Jake earlier. Jake said Charlotte forced him to come visit us, and now here we are. We got to know each other. She is the sweetest, but also the craziest, just don't test her. I was warned by Jake and Kenny when they told me stories about her many cat fights with Jessica.

"Uhh.. basically everything except the faniture. Just clothes, shoes, make up." I told Kenny and Jake walked inside the dining room from the kitchen with a glass of juice.

He took the juice and handed it to his fiance. "I'm coming with you, you're not leaving me alone here with them." Jake said to Kenny.

"Hello? What's wrong with us ?" Charlotte questioned as her eyebrows furrowed.

"Nothing. I just want to give you space to have, you know, girl talk." Jake said and Charlotte rolled her eyes.

Kenny came up to me and kissed me goodbye then him and Jake got out.

Kenny's POV.

I pulled into Blue's old apartment and me and Jake got out of the car. We took the elevators to the seventeenth floor.

The elevator doors opened and we got out and I remembered her apartment number was 206 so we headed that direction. I unlocked her apartment door with the key she gave me and we got in. The apartment was clean, which means the cleaners still come here regularly.

I went to her room while Jake trailed behind me. I opened her closet that was full of clothes and looked at Jake. "I'll pack the clothes and accessories, you can do the shoes and make up."

"So you don't want me to touch her clothes." Jake chuckled. "Got it."

I decided to not answer that and took out her suitcase. I was carefully packing her clothes in the bag when I heard Jake call me. "Yeah Kenny you gotta see this." He said as he looked inside a small handbag.

"What is it ?" I asked him as I went to him. He spilled the contents of the bag on top of the bag and I saw different weapons.

"A light crossbow, a dagger, dart, rapier, sap, shotbow and a small sword. These are all an assassin's tools." Jake said to me as he looked at me wide eyed.

"This could be to protect herself, what are you talking about ?" I asked him.

"This is what an assassin's bag looks like Kenny."

"Jake don't forget Blue was in the military, these could all be from there." I said as I went back to packing her clothes.

They may be tools of an assassin but I'm pretty sure Blue has a reasonable explanation for them.

I opened a drawer and was met with a gun. I took it out and looked at it.

"DSR 50 sniper rifle." Jake said looking at the gun in my hand.

I nodded my head. "The most dangerous gun on earth."

I put the gun on the bed and opened the second drawer. Mine and Jake's eyes widened as we saw the weapon.
"Hypersonic missle." I said.

"Are you sure it is it ?" Jake asked me.

"Yeah." I said as I took the weapon in my hand.

How did Blue get access to this weapon ? Hypersonic missles are among the most powerful weapons in existence. They can hit targets at any distance on Earth within an hour and change trajectory flight.

There only ten Hypersonic missles on Earth and they're only currently in Russia. How did Blue get access to the most rarest and most deadliest weapon ?

"You wanna tell that the 700 nitro express bullets are to protect herself too ?" Jake chuckled as he took out a small box from the drawer.

I know Blue was in the army but that isn't an explanation to all these weapons. Even our own military force doesn't have access to these weapons. A few criminals in Mayville may have them, but that's because they got them through illegal dealings. But how do I explain how Blue got them ? I'm trying to think of a possible solution, a theory of some kind that would explain how she got them. But I have nothing, I have no idea what to think.

I'm not going to doubt Blue, there's definitely a possible explanation to this. I'm not going to jump into conclusion and make my own scenarios before I ask her. I mean this is what a relationship is about right ? trust ? I trust Blue and I trust that this is some type of misunderstanding. Or atleast I hope so.

Jake and I continued to pack Blue's belongings in silence. I knew Jake had a lot to say but he decided to keep quiet because he saw I wasn't in the mood. I had a lot of questions running through my mind and the only person who could answer them was Blue.

"I think we got everything." Jake said as he took the bag with the shoes in his hands. I took the suitcase and the bag that contained the weapons inside. We got outside the apartment and I locked the door before we took the elevators.

We got outside when the elevators reached the bottom floor and we headed straight to my car. We put the bags in the backseat before getting inside.

The ride was silent for a good five minutes before Jake decided to speak up. "Do you think she might be involved in illegal businesses ?" Jake asked the question I have been avoiding to ask myself the past thirty minutes.

"I don't think Blue would ever be involved in anything illegal. I don't think she's capable of such. There's a reasonable explanation to the weapons Jake, not what you're thinking."

Jake sighed and spoke up after a few minutes. "You love her." He said, more of a statement than a question. "I can see the way you look at her. You look at her as if she's your whole world, like your life depends on her happiness."

"Because it does." I answered him honestly. "I am in love with her, deeply in love with her."

"Well then you gotta find out the truth. You can't build love on lies and secrets." Jake told me.

"I know." I sighed as I pulled into the garage of my apartment.

We got out and headed straight to my apartment door as soon as the lift dinged and opened.

I opened my door and we immidietly heard noise coming from the dining room. I heard Blue laugh and it immidietly bought a smile to my face.

"Don't bite the hand that fingered you or whatever they say."

"That feeds you!" Charlotte corrected laughing, causing Jake to also cackle.

I took Blue's bags and went upstairs to put them in our room. I came back from the stairs and Jake immidietly stood up. "Uhh me and Charlotte gotta go, we have somewhere to be."

"Where ?I don't remember any-" Charlotte was cut off by Jake.
"That place we had to go to." Jake said to Charlotte signalling her to play along. I knew they had no where to go. Jake wanted to leave because he wanted to give Blue and I some privacy.

"Ohh, that place!" Charlotte laughed as she stood up. "I completely forgot about it. Uhmm..we have to go now."

Blue stood up and hugged Charlotte goodbye and went to walk them to the door.

"We need to talk." I said immediately after she shut the door.
