16 Confession 5.2
Setting the close down on the edge of the counter I remove the sheet that had been wrapped around me and begin to fold it up.
"Glad to see you survived my lady." The raspy crackling voice echoed in the room. I looked up and in the mirror Kakuya stood behind me. I spun around the rotten corpse of the demon mere inches from me. It's eye filled with mischief. "Huh, if only I was alive this would be more enjoyable." His statement gave me shivers as his eyes wondered.
"What do you want?" I demand, sounding bitchy because I was really uncomfortable.
He laughed amused by my discomfort. "I just wanted to make sure you where alright, after all leaving you in the hands of such a man I can't say he can be trusted." Kakuya laughter was more sinister.
"Do you know something I don't about Ben?" I Asked now feeling nervous. It pursed what lips it had together as if thinking.
"Just be careful who you trust." He said and vanished.
Now I was concerned and nervous. What did I know about Ben, and that power he had shown before? He had saved us both. Master Briggs had never displayed that type of power. I stayed in the shower probably longer than I should have dwelling in thought. Before I knew it. The shower was cold and I felt guilty. What if Ben had wanted to shower? Biting my lip I stepped out of the shower, dried off, quickly dressed and walked down stairs. The house was warm and cozy and well lived in from what I could see as I passed the living room I noticed lots of tomes stacked up on the coffee table. Was he a book worm. I eventually followed the smell to the kitchen. Where he was now setting a plate out on the counter in front of a stool for me. I nervously walked over. I was once again shockingly impressed the man could cook. There was bacon, eggs, hash browns, sausage, and even french toast set out. I felt my mouth begin to drool as I quickly checked myself wiping it away. He gestures for me to take a seat. I hold up the sweat pants as I climb the stool. They where to big even with the straps.
"Thanks." I say As I pick up my for and dig in. he takes a seat next to me , I can't help but notice he's walking me. "What?" I say little louder than I meant to.
He shrugs "Nothing just thought it was cute how much you love food you engulf it so fast I wonder if you even taste it." I swallow the big bite in my mouth feeling embarrassed again.
"I'm not use to eating slow, I never had that luxury." I mumble putting down my fork. "It was either eat fast or get left behind or starve." I look around the kitchen anywhere but at Ben.
"Sounds like Lance was a controlling maniac." to his words I can't help start giggling I cover my mouth to stifle it but I can't. I never thought about it, but it does seem weird now we defiantly always had the time but he always rushed he also had other controlling quirks like making me change in front of him. When we weren't on missions he'd drag me all over to all kinds of monasteries and churches saying he needed to do research but I was never allowed to know what he was looking for I was to stand guard and wait. Once I asked if I had to actually go I had missed a lot of school and it's not like I was doing anything he had become every angry, said I was ungrateful and that I should always obey my masters order no matter what and if I didn't like it he could just destroy me because he created me. I shiver at the memory. "You okay?" Ben's question shakes my thoughts.
"Yeah," I nod as I answer I seem to do that a lot with him. "What are we going to do about the mission?" I ask but the look on Ben's face suddenly says I stepped on a land mine.
"We pretend like nothing happened."
"What!" I shout, was he kidding, had I missed something. They sent us out there to have use killed. And I don't hold back telling him so.
"We don't have proof of their objective Stacy. Until than, we report the mission in complete and we tread lightly. I swear I won't let anything happen to you." I purse my lips watching him.
"I thought you wanted to use me as well." I say regretting it the second it left my mouth. I was frustrated at the situation and frustrated that I knew nothing about him. However I never meant to say this.
"I however don't want you dead!" He snapped back.
"Then what do you want?" I demand
"For now you to just trust me!" He shout,
I nearly fall out of my stool. What the hell did he just say, He won't tell me shit but he wants my trust?
