Is that a promise?

CHAPTER FOURTEEN

Seeing as it was snowing, everyone was wearing thick scarves and long sleeved clothes.
Pulling up to the spot, you turned off the engine, taking off your helmet.
"Hey uh-- Tasha, what's the situation?"
Tasha whispers to you,
"I have no idea... We're going in 10 minutes."
Tasha says with an attitude, you look at her confused.
"Did I uh.. Did I do something? Why are you so..."
Tasha whips her head toward you, eyebrow raised.
"I happened to see you and that bunny guy over there..."
She points at Frank discreetly,
"You two were hugging..."
Your heart begins to quickens,
"So what are you guys really?"
She leans closer to you,
Becoming a bit more nervous,
Your eyes avoid to meet hers..
"W-What do you mean...? We're just friends! He-- He was just... Nervous so I helped him, that's all..!"
Your ears turn red, glancing towards Frank.
Tasha always had the best intuition, she could tell if you're lying to her.
But you were telling the truth! All you really did was helping Frank..!
She backed up, smirking at you.
"Alright... I believe you, Y/N. But I also think there's more than 'just friends' between you two..."
Her walking away, you turn even more red.
How did she even see?!

As the mission is about to start, the Infiltration went first.
Frank stood a bit closer to you, quietly.
"You seem nervous..."
You chuckle, glancing towards him.
"Ah... Just some few misunderstanding between us.."
He laughs softly, scratching his neck.
"I see... Im sorry.."
"Nah, it's alright, bunny."
You reassure him, looking forward again.
Dossier and bounty hunters began to do their jobs.

Time has passed since the plan began, there was only one person alive. And they were good at hiding.
Some agents had stayed behind and buried the bodies and cleaned the place up.
While some were looking for this person, seeing as they were a higher up.
Where is this person... Making our jobs a lot harder and it's so cold..!
Your hand tightly gripping your gun, freezing your hands off. Knuckles and the tips of your fingers turning red, rosy cheeks and pink nose.
Hearing footsteps near you, you look qround quickly, trying to find whoever that was.
Hiding behind a tree as quietly as you can, you peek around and see
A woman..! She's the last one!
Aiming your gun at her, you noticed she's injured, bleeding badly.
"You the last one?"
Looking down at her, she pants out
"Maybe... Just go ahead and do it, you have my permission..."
She catches her breath.
"As a higher up... You can kill me--"

You don't know why, but you looked into her eyes and saw how scared and in pain she is in. Noticing her teary eyes, as she tries to stop the tears from falling.
For the first time in a long time, you felt.... Sorry.
You felt sorry for her, that you were about to end her life.
"What are you waiting for..?!"
She said through grunts,
Taking a deep breath... You finally pull the trigger. Shooting her in the mouth, her jaw hanging open.
As the gunshot echoes in your mind, you hadn't noticed the tears slowly going down your cheeks, leaving a cold trail.
Wiping your tears, you felt a hand on your shoulder. Turning around, you see,
"Bunny...!"
Even wiping the tears off, it continued to stream down your face. Sniffling and vision getting a bit blurry, he looks at the woman...
Frank wraps his arms around you, tightly.
"And here I thought you had a cold heart..."
He tries to lighten the mood, as you cry on his chest, staining his shirt with your tears.
"I guess even snowflakes gets cold.."
You felt warm in his embrace, you felt... Safe and normal.
His hand rubbing your back as he holds you closer.
Looking up at him, you asked..
"When I looked into her eyes... I felt-- I felt sorry.. I felt sorry for her...!"
He looks at you, your eyes filled with tears and tear stained cheeks.
".. Why..?"
Voice cracking, you didn't know why you felt like this now.
He hugs you again, your face into his chest as his voice rings into your ear.
"I... I don't know..."
Your arms wrap around him, as you began to cry harder.
"I can't tell you why, but... If you'd like, we can figure it out together.."
He backs up, looking at your face.
His gloved hands wiping your tears off, cupping your face.
You nod at him, smiling.
"Together..."

Carrying the woman to where the bodies are buried.
You and Frank set the body down, the both of you grabbing a shovel and started to dig.
A man looked at the both of you, digging.
You wondered why he was looking, meeting his eyes, you asked..
"Is there a problem...?"
A man from the Infiltration... His face covered up except for his eyes, squinting. Presumably smiling at you.
"Oh, no. I just remembered that I helped you guys once..!"
Frank froze, confused as to what the man meant.
"I was the one who opened the door when the two of you were trapped..."
It finally clicked.
"Oh! Um... Thanks..!"
You smile at him, as he leaves the two of you alone.
"Ninja..."
"What?"
You looked at Frank,
"That man, everyone calls him Ninja."
He explained to you.
You looked back at the ground, continuing to dig.

5 feet deep, Frank helps you carry the body.
Slowly making your way to the hole, Frank says to you,
"Did you hear about the woman who got buried?"
Unbelievable...
"What?"
"It was a grave mistake."
.
.
.
.
.
The two of you burst out laughing, dropping the body on the ground.
Trying to catch your breaths, clutching your stomachs.
"You fucking ass...!"
Your heart feels lighter than earlier as you two begin to calm down.
The man named Collin looked at you two, in shock.
"You two are literally burying a dead body."
Frank snorted,
"Sorry..! We just.."
Unable to finish his sentence, quietly laughing.
Grabbing the shovel, he helps you bury the body.

Finally done for the day, you received  your money.
"Well... Bunny, I'll need to get home now."
The two of you standing in front of each other, looking into each other's eyes.
His black suit littered with white snow, a dark blue scarf around his neck.
His fingers fidget as he took of his scarf, wrapping it around your neck.
His face a few inches away from you, he says
"You'll get cold without a scarf..."
You nod... Cheeks feeling more warm.
He grabs your hand as he stands back up properly, lifting his mask above his lips. Gently kissing your knuckles, you giggle as you felt butterflies in your stomach.
"So romantic.."
You say teasingly, as he let's go of your hand.
"Just trying to warm you up, Y/N... Be safe on your way home."
He waves at you as you get on your motorcycle.
Going home smiling to yourself.
The butterflies not leaving anytime soon...

Frank enters his car, smiling to himself as well.
A knock on his window, Collin smiles at him. Rolling it down, Collin teases him,
"So... No romantic feelings, huh?"
Frank looks at him silently, flicking him off; causing Collin to laugh out loud, rolling the window back up.
Frank drives back home, cheeks heating up. Mumbling your name to himself, smiling widely.
"Y/N..."
