Undercover

Different Minds Think Alike

"Oh two can play that game", I say throwing punches out of the blue.

He and I quabble back and forth till we are huffing and tired. Once we are done he sighs and lifts his shift up to wipe his face, and a super toned tan torso peeks through showing defined abs. When I punched him during training I felt how defined he was. He's definitely toner than he looks.

"Gape a little less yeah?" , he says looking at me playfully.

I roll my eyes and we had to his car when I see a familiar person pass by.
It looked like...Kiara?
I turn to see the shadow gone. I shake it off and leave to the car.

3 weeks later

Lucas and I have trained together 3 times already and we've gotten better. We just finished a season when I saw a familiar silhouette again.

This time I walk up to the person to see Kiara.

"Kiara?"

She looks up at me startled.

"What are-", she starts.

"What are you doing here?", I ask on high alert.

I hover my hand on my gun tucked into my jean waist and she realizes.

"Natalie, don't shoot I'm a spy here", hands up in surrender.

"What? No your not", I say confused.

Lucas stands behind me equally confused.

"Yeah I am, I'm taking the beginners program here, I recently became a member like three weeks ago", she says nervous about my hand on my gun.

"So I did see you that day didn't I?"

"Yeah", she says sheepishly. I ran because I was surprised to see you here ."

"How old are you?", Lucas asks.

"I'm a sophomore I just turned 16."

"Wait how do you know my name?", I ask suddenly remembering I zapped her memory.

"You go to my school. I see you in the halls", she says confused like it's obvious.

"Right, uh what were you giving out at school? I saw you doing something", I say trying to play it off without triggering her memory.

"I was doing an errand for my boss, that's it."

I look at Lucas and sigh. She's not guilty of anything she was just training to be a part of Black Light.

"Uh, I'm not that good at fighting and I saw you guys are really good. C-could you maybe help me?"

"Yeah sure", I say glad to clear out suspicions of her.

"Okay cool. See ya", she says walking out.

Lucas and I look at each other and walk out to the night air.

December 5, 2019 - one week later. :)

It's Tuesday and I cannot wait for the week to end. I have too many tests in a week and I really need to be done with all of it. I head up to Sarah putting my books in my locker.

"Hey Natalie, guess what's in 3 days?"

I reply dryly. "Ooh lemme guess. Friday."

She rolls her eyes.

"Yes but you know what else? Winter Formal! I'm sure you have heard of it. Who you going with?"

"Yeah, I'm not going I don't have a date", I say less bothered for a dance.

"Ooh come onn! Your like so hot and hot and smart and hot. There is definitely someone drooling over you", she says exasperated.

"Name one person who would go with me", I say facing her and putting my hands on her hips.

It didn't even take her 3 seconds to name "Lucas".

"No", I say. "No, not Lucas."

"Yes Lucas."

"No, we are just friends. And he probably has a date", I say rubbing it off.

"He does not, I asked and-"

"YOU WHAT-"

"Just listen Natalie!" Sarah huffs. "Just ask him if you guys want to go as friends. I'm just saying he's quite hot and you two look good side by side. Just think about it, it's our last Winter Formal as a high schooler just go."

I think about it for a while contemplating. I'm too busy with my job but she has a point. Anyways, Lucas knows my spy secret so it wouldn't be so hard to go.

"Fine, I'll ask him about it", I finally answer, heading to class and leaving Sarah smiling.
