 Characters: Nicole (KARA) & Myungsoo (INFINITE) ft Hyungsik (ZE:A) 

     “Nicole!”

His muscular voice woke the sleeping girl from her beauty sleep. Her eyes fluttered open as she pushed herself up from their king sized bed. In an oversized purple t shirt and hello kitty shorts, he couldn’t help but blush at how cute she looked right now. Ruffling her own dark chocolate brown hair, she squinted at him.

     “What’s wrong, Myungsoo-ah?” she asked, titling her head to the side.

Nicole heard his uneasy, heavy breathing even though he was just standing in their bedroom doorway. The two lived with each other ever since the two got engaged, well in their mind they were.

     “They’re coming.”

Her eyes shot wide open, turning her gaze to Myungsoo, who was in a black and white collar t shirt with blue jeans. Spotting the gun in his right hand, that he was clenching so hard as if it was going to be taken from him any moment, Nicole flipped the bed covers off of her and changed into a tight white t shirt with shorts in a flash. Maybe her job really does come in handy in times like this. Pulling on her shoes over her feet, Myungsoo couldn’t help but wait impatiently checking his phone that placed all the information he had received. He swiftly threw the fully loaded gun at Nicole, who was now fully prepared. The two laced their hands together and ran out of the house, quickly getting into their black sports car. The roar of the engine started, and the couple zoomed off out of their house driveway. It was just late dawn and the sun is slowly coming up –they had to escape quickly before it gets to bright.

Nicole reached to the back seat and pulled out a black brief case, setting it on her lap. Pressing her right thumb on the finger scanner to unlock it, inside of it revealed a small tracking device, small computer, and a gun with a set of bullets beside it. Myungsoo smirked at her but his eyes still fixed on the road in front of him she’s always prepared isn’t she. Looking through the information Myungsoo received earlier she entered a few codes, the tracking devices beeped –showing 3 bright white dots, people that were chasing them, and a green one that indicated Myungsoo and Nicole.

     “I told you we shouldn’t have tried quitting,” she muttered lowly, continuing to navigate the distance between their little stalkers.

The couple knew very well that both of their agencies wouldn’t let someone stay alive after they quit. Of course in the beginning after you sign a contract, they said you could quit anytime–which meant you wanted to stop living. It was actually pretty reasonable if not paranoid; all the spies trained in any agency knew pieces of information that rival agencies might want knowledge of.

     Myungsoo wrapped his right hand with her left hand, squeezing hers with his, “What was I supposed to do? The CEO wanted you dead by the end of the week or else he’ll take matters in his own hands, you know I wouldn’t want anything to happen to you.” He kissed the top of her hand, with his dark black eyes straight at the scene in front of him. Nicole was secretly smiling; he knew even though he didn’t look, the picture of her bright angelic smile was something he knew very well.

     “That goes for you two, my boss was getting impatient on how long I was taking to kill you,” she replied, using her free hand to enter a few codes.

3 years has passed so quickly, it only feels like a year to them. In the very beginning, the two labeled each other as targets, nothing more and less. She thought he was going to be an easy kill; he looked like he would trust anyone, allowing her to quickly gain some information and kill him off quickly. For him, it was the same, the profile picture he was given showed the innocent side of her; breezily scamming him on how Nicole really was. Their thought of completing the mission in 2 weeks turned into 2 years, where the couple finally realized that the idea of murdering each other would drive both of them nuts. He proposed to her sincerely, which he told his CEO is was part of the plan, and she agreed immediately, something she told her boss it was part of the plan also. Being engaged for a year already, it was finally time they had to deal with this problem for the last time.

Their quiet yet soothing atmosphere disappeared as soon as his car alarmed him that they were struck by a bullet. He pressed a few buttons to shut the alarm off, placing a bullet shield over them.

     “How did they catch up so quickly, we didn’t even hear them!” he looked at his rear mirror spotting one silver and one grey car chasing them, with men shooting at them.

     Nicole bit her lip in response with her fingers on the navigator. “I don’t know! The device is probably lagging! Now it only shows that one of the three cars is more distant from us.”

A quiet whistling sound drew closer, making it even louder until it stopped with a loud thack, the sound of ammo hitting the car shield.

     Turning her head, she looked at the two cars and gritted her teeth, “Dammit they have whistling bullets!”

     Taking a sharp right turn on the deserted streets, they entered a new road, “Whistling bullets?”

     She nodded, loading a couple of bullets in the gun Myungsoo handed her earlier, “They’re bullets my agency created to be faster, quieter, and much more accurate. Just when I don’t have them, I need it the most.”

Rolling down the window, she pushed her arm out and aimed towards the grey car. They’re part of my agency so the weak part of the car is.. Nicole smirked. She shot the roof of the cars but only one of the vehicles grumbled loudly as it abruptly stopped in the middle of the streets.

     "One of the car's aren't from my agencies! Where's the weak spot on the car for yours?" Nicole asked, rather demanded. 

     "Try to shoot the bottom of the car."

She did as she was told, after using 4 bullets, the car stopped abruptly. They didn’t need to look back to smell the strong stench of burnt rubber quickly filling the air. Already many feet away from them, they sharply turned to a new street as the loud sound of silence approached them.

     “How did you stop them so quickly?” Myungsoo asked, slightly amazed. He pushed the gas petal, quickening the speed of the car. Luckily there wasn’t a normal person in the car, or else there would be dead person that died from a heart attack sitting lifelessly in the car.

     Swiftly reloading her gun, Nicole grinned, “I shot the roof of the car, where the most flammable part is stored.” She heard a low chuckle from the male, making her look at him questionably. “Bwoh? Is something wrong?”

     Shaking his head, he tried to wipe the wide grin he had on his sculpted face. “Ani, it’s just that..” He stifled a small laugh. “Why the roof of the car?”

     “Don’t ask me,” Nicole shrugged, raising a brow she looked at him, “what about your agencies cars? Why the bottom of the car, wouldn't it be too predictable?” She was slightly curious; after all it wouldn’t hurt to know since there is a 50:50 percent chance she’s going to make it alive anyways.

     Pressing the accelerator on, Myungsoo pushed a few codes on a keypad where a radio was supposed to be. “We store it under the car so it won’t be so easy to destroy it.” Once the code was entered, a large screen appeared with a keyboard in front of it. Placing his phone in her hand, he pointed to the keyboard, “Enter the address on there.”

Doing what he said obediently, the device dinged as soon as she entered the address. It was just a few minutes away but to them it’s going to feel like hours. They knew their bosses will probably send in more agents as soon as they heard about their attack, getting rid of two already. Nicole set her gaze on the tracking device in front of her, following the green dot that seemed to be coming closer to them than ever.

     “3 minutes away from destination,” the device alarmed in a robotic voice.

     Nicole’s eyes were still fixed on the dot, hurriedly getting nearer leaving not a single space between them. Her eyes widened, jerking her hand on Myungsoo’s shoulder, “OPPA STO-“

In a flash, a silver car came from the side, coming in contact with theirs. Both cars were locked and spun together, receiving the same amount of damage from the crash. The screeching stopped, so did the vehicles in a rough halt. Myungsoo’s arm was around Nicole, practically hugging her, securing her from any sharp objects that might hit them. Their car rear was gone, so was the engine that was lying flatly on the side of the road with large, obvious dent marks. Windows were shattered, air bags were automatically activated, they didn’t need an expert to tell them their car was totaled, they knew. His arms slowly unwrapped around Nicole, grabbing all the necessary stuff they needed, obviously the guns and small devices. Luckily they didn’t manage to get any injuries from the accident. Hoping that if they were quick enough, the two may escape easily, they opened their car door forcibly, not caring for the large amount of small glass falling on the floor. Suddenly feeling a sharp tug she stepped back, then a hand swiftly hit the fully loaded gun out of her hand and placing a painful arm lock on her. She let out a small but audible yelp, making Myungsoo to check on her. There was a large muscular male gripping onto her, showing no signs of mercy. A cold edge touched the side of his head making his lips pull into a smirk; it was the end of a gun.

     “You really thought that you could escape so easily?”

     Myungsoo rolled his eyes and kept his eyes on Nicole, who was trying to squirm her way out of the male’s strong grip, “Of course not, I know we won’t escape easily.”

     The brown hair male scoffed at Myungsoo’s confident answer, “Let me rephrase myself, you really thought you could escape.”

     “Of course, our love is invincible,” he playfully replied, as if he wanted to anger the male. “Hyungsik, you won’t be able to break it.”

Park Hyungsik. Don’t let his innocent face trick you, behind that perfect face is a mind of one of Korea’s top 5 spies (including Nicole and Myungsoo). Being part of Nicole’s agency, the lass and the latter became close naturally, so close that the two dated once. Their sweet, romantic, and painful memories all came to an end when Myungsoo entered the picture. Nicole was the first to suggest to part ways, but at the very end he couldn’t acknowledge their sudden division, especially to the likes of Kim Myungsoo.

Nicole glared at him telling him this wasn’t the time to joke around, while the male that was holding onto her cringed. Hyungsik looked at Myungsoo in disbelief, who in the right mind would be joking around when there’s a gun point at their head. He pushed the end of the gun at the side of his head, causing his head to fall to the side.

     “You really are crazy,” Hyungsik lowly, muttered with a cold gaze in his brown eyes. He shifted his gaze towards Nicole, who eventually gave up trying to escape, looking at her from head to toe. “Just what do you see in him?”

     Nicole smirked at her ex-boyfriend, “Something you didn’t give me, trust.”

He felt a pang hit his chest slowly getting heavier. Hearing a chuckle from the black hair male, Hyungsik punched him in the gut, making him groan in pain. “You shouldn’t laugh at those that could kill you in a second.”

     “Who said you’re going to kill me?” Myungsoo challenged him, holding his stomach in pain.

Nicole’s eyes widened, her body now squirming to slap some sense in her fiancé. Does he want to be killed right now?! She saw an amusing smile form on Hyungsk’s face, his hand pushed into his black jeans searching for something. A glint of light blinded her eyes for a second, until the object he held became clear.

It was a torture bullet. Modified to affect the person’s blood with a toxic that will drive them to the hell gates of pain till they can’t take it anymore. Stealing this invention from YG Agency, one of the top spy companies, is one of the major achievements Hyungsik had done for his agency. But only a few people could know some information in creating this weapon, he is the only one that knows every detail of it. So in other words, if Hyungsik uses it, he will know how to use it better and eviler than anyone else.  

     Using all her might, Nicole pushed all her weight towards them, “DON’T!!~” She knew the torturous methods that could be used on Myungsoo including from a professional like Hyungsik, who talked a little about it when the two were together. She saw the dark cold eyes staring at her with his pink lips formed in an evil grin, as if it was telling her this was her punishment for breaking up with him.

Hyungsik unloaded the whistling bullet that was already in the gun and pushed the new bullet in its place. With his finger ready to pull the trigger, Myungsoo’s lip pulled into a devious smile. In a second, he pulled the gun that he hid inside his top and pointed it to Nicole.

     “You kill me, I’ll kill her.”

Nicole wasn’t the only one surprised, but Hyungsik and the other male was also. The deathly sound of silence became louder than ever, causing their nervousness to slowly rise. The brown hair male took quick glances at the couple, biting his lip unsure what to do. All he wanted was the dam guy to die not the person he cared for. While she looked at the gun that was accurately pointed to her head, she never had thought that she would die by the hands of her lover. She looked at the spark in his black eyes, reading his poker face expression. Feeling the male’s grip loosening slowly, Nicole slight smiled. In a blink of an eye, Nicole flipped the male over and knocked him out cold as Myungsoo knocked the gun out of Hyungsik’s hand swiftly, hitting the concrete floor. Hyungsik was a second late to dodge Myungsoo’s punch, injecting pain to his head. Landing onto the ground, he held his head in pain as he stared at the two that were looking down at him with their guns only a foot away from his face.

     “Well aren’t you going to shoot?” he asked bitterly, smirking through the pain that was stinging his face.

Nicole nudged Myungsoo and squatted down to Hyungsik’s level. Reaching an arm towards his face, he winced back at first, afraid of what she might do. The same caring smile appeared again, the smile that would comfort him whenever he needed her, something he hadn’t seen in years. Her gentle fingers touched his face, easing his guard.

     “Hyungie,” Nicole called him by his nickname for the last time. “I really treasure all those times I’ve created with you and right now I will treasure this last moment. For now, I want you to be happy with someone that is rightly yours. You are someone that I care for deeply even now, but right now seeing you like this doesn’t pain just you but me also.” His hand held onto hers, not wanting to let her go. “Since this is our last goodbye, remember I want you to be happy even if I’m gone.” Myungsoo nudged her shoulder, telling her they had to go quickly or else they really might not make it out alive. Nicole slowly pulled back her arm and smiled, “Goodbye and I’m sorry.” She used the dull end of her gun and hit Hyungsik on the head to knock him out.

     Getting up, Nicole faced Myungsoo, who had his hand on his waist, smiling at her, “Ready to go?”

Nicole eye smiled and nodded, lacing her hand with his. The two ran to the destination that was just a few minutes away. With their heels hitting the street floor, it became more distant as seconds passed. Her lips formed a small smile as her gaze was on the back of Myungsoo.

     “Will you marry me?”

Tears fell down unconsciously, ruining her make up that she prepared before. He was in a collar t shirt with black jeans while she was in a stunning red dress. After dating for a year, Nicole couldn’t take it anymore; she knew she won’t be able to kill him in the end and today was the day she would tell him that. But he invited her to go eat dinner together and the sudden proposal happened, surprising her.

     “Omo,” he quickly got up from his knee, “mianhae for making you cry.”

He reached to wipe the tears that were falling on her cheeks, but she pushed him away, shaking her head. “Ani, it’s not that. It’s just that I can’t do this anymore.”

     “What do you mean?”

     “I can’t be together with you anymore,” Nicole wiped the tears off of her face but it kept streaming down, “or else I won’t be able to kill you at the very end.” She thought that he would be surprised or mad when he would hear this but she felt his warm arms pull her into a hug instead, astonishing her.

     His hand ran through her long brown hair as his soothing voice filled her ears, “I got the same mission as you, but it’s ironic how I feel that same way as you. I really do love you, that’s why I want you to be mine forever. If we are really meant to be together, than everything will be fine right?”

     Nicole looked deep into his eyes, “Yeah, that’s right..”

     “So will you Jung Nicole, marry me?”

     A smile curved on her face, “I do.”

The two locked into a kiss, not caring for their situation with each other anymore. As long as they had each other they were fine.

The memory played in her mind, her heart raced a beat. Reaching the destination, they stood in the middle of a field of grass with trees circling around them. A roaring sound came closer to them, the wind increased also. Looking up at the sky, their ride had finally arrived. A black ladder was thrown down for them to get on. Myungsoo was the first one to place his foot on the stair, reaching an arm out at Nicole. She smiled and his arm wrapped tightly around her body, securing her. Soon the ground that was below their feet was out of touch, gradually getting higher as the helicopter flew. Nicole looked at the surroundings she knew so well for the last time, Myungsoo as well.

     “We finally can have a fresh start,” she heard Myungsoo said.

Nodding in agreement, Nicole tightened her embrace with his, Her hand rested on his chest, the two waited for to get pulled up to the top.

     “What’s wrong?” Myungsoo tilted her head up, so their eyes could meet.

     Biting her lip, Nicole tried to look somewhere else, “I’m just.. afraid.”

     Shifting her head back so their eyes would meet again, Myungsoo lightly kissed her forehead, “I’m here for you, always remember that. I will chase away any monsters that hurt you.”

     Nicole giggled and thanked him, as their gazes locked with each other, “I love you.”

     “I love you too.”

His lips came in touch with her soft pink lips, with their arms in each other’s protection. The warm feeling in their bodies send butterflies and sparks in their bodies; they didn’t want it to end. Every second that passed, the further they are from their past and closer to their future. But their love will stay with them forever, through thick to thin. Nothing else matters to them now, as long as they were in each other’s embrace.
