Going on the mission

NOLAN

This night, I will be going on the mission with Martins, Arden, and the rest of the warriors. I wasn't sure what the mission holds for us and if I will be coming back with my full quads. Maybe I won't come back was also unknown to me. We are going to be dealing with the packs from the northern hemisphere, known for their brutality and evil ways. And can't be compared to the southern hemisphere. I could only hope that we come back with a victory song in our mouths. Since I wasn't sure of what the outcome of our mission will be, I decided to spend some time with Olive. Even if that will be the last time we will spend together, I wanted it to be, if not the best but one of the best dates of her life. I got dressed in blue jeans and a white shirt. I walked down the stairs. When I saw Olive standing by the dining table, dressed in a blue strapless gown with stopped below her thigh.

I stared at her, I had to stop on my track. She wasn't facing me, so it was easier to watch her without her noticing me. She turned slightly and I had to pretend to be on a call just in case she looks at me. She turned back and I sighed. I took two steps and then stopped. l couldn't take my mind off staring at her and going closer to her will prevent me from having a closer look at her. I rested on the stairs to check her out. Though I had noticed she wore more female clothing these recent days, I still could not process why she had changed completely to wearing female clothing.

And though the female clothing fits her so perfectly, this particular gown fits her too well and looks too short to be true. It held her body so firmly bringing out her beautiful body shape. I couldn't help but wondered why she dressed like a male before and why she never left her hair to grow. I had thought so many times and had wanted to ask her but had always had a change of mind. I got lost staring at her until someone poked me. I turned and was flush in embarrassment when I saw who it was. It was Nigel. He giggled while I rolled my eyes. He winked. "You know you don't have to stare at her like that. She's all yours"

"I-i wasn't staring at her" I lied. There was no way I was going to accept the fact that had been staring at Olive.

He chuckled. "I get the feeling"

"I..."

He poked me. "Go. Don't keep her waiting. And make sure you have some fun". He winked. "You know what I mean"

I furrowed my eyebrows. At first, I couldn't process what he meant at first but within a few seconds, I was able to process his words. I groaned. Nigel is such a pervert. I decided to pretend not to understand what he said. I raised an eyebrow. "W-what the heck are you talking about?"

He rolled his eyes. "Don't be ridiculous, Nolan"

I scoffed. "You're...."

"Don't keep her waiting"

I wanted to say something when Olive turned so I kept short. He chuckled and I frowned. "Nolan, you're here. I've been waiting for you" Olive said

I sighed. "Having a word with Nigel. I will join you"

"He isn't having any word with me. He's been staring at you" Nigel answered

I frowned and he chuckled. "Don't worry. I will sit down and wait for you. When you're ready we can leave"

I smiled but frowned when Olive wasn't staring anymore. "Why did you do that"

"What did I do?" Nigel asked

I frowned. "What...". Nigel began to laugh and I stopped talking. I couldn't understand why he was laughing. "Why are you laughing?". Instead of answering my question. He busted into another series of laughter. I frowned. . "It isn't funny" I whispered

He chuckled. "Did you see your face"

"What..." I realized talking with Nigel was a waste of time. I sighed. "Pervert" I muttered and finally joined Olive.

"You should pick whatever you want," I told Olive who couldn't process the reason behind my new attitude. We had visited three other malls, with this mall being the fourth one we've visited, not after spending some hours in the park and also some hours in the restaurant. It was getting dark but I wanted to make sure she gets everything she wants. As the day gets darker, I knew the time I would spend with her is been reduced, and was getting closer to my mission. So many things I wanted us to do but the time was limited.

She folded her hands. "Nolan, I don't understand why you're acting this way. I mean the excess care, the..."

I placed my hand on her lips. "Shhh. I just want us to have fun. Is that too much to ask?"

She sighed. "No. I...". I stared at her and she sighed. "It isn't too much to ask. But...". I batted my lashes and she raised her hand. "Ok. There is no but. I just don't know what to pick. I have picked so many things from the other malls"

I smiled. "I can help you with that"

I made to leave but she held me. "Nolan, I don't want anything from the mall". I stared at her. "I just want to spend quality time with you"

My eyes widened in shock as I wasn't expecting her to say that. I had thought taking her to the mall will do the trick. And when I don't return which I know I will return, she would remember me, if not for anything but for the things I bought for her. I never thought spending quality time with her does not have to do with spending money on her but spending time with her. I sighed and held her hand. "Is that what you want?". She nodded and I smiled. "Then let's go have some quality time together"

We left the mall and returned to the amusement park. Most people had left the park, giving some privacy. I asked her to sit on the bench while I go get us some ice cream. I returned a few minutes later and then sat down beside her. "Your ice cream"

She muttered a thank you and then collected the ice cream from me. I watched her lick her ice cream and I wished we could spend more quality time together. I don't know how long it or how many days it will take me to finish up the mission. I don't know what the mission holds, but if I return which I know I will, I will spend more time with her just to show her how much I love her.

I picked up my sword and after giving my room the last look, I left the room. It was very late in the night and the hallway was quiet. Most of the pack members were asleep. I knew they would be asleep that was the reason I decided to leave at that time. I went into Olive's room to see her for the last time. She was sleeping peacefully with a strand of hair covering her face. I moved closer to her and sat beside her. I pushed her hair backward and smiled. I placed my hand on her face and moved it slowly to her lips. How desperate I had been to kiss her lips. I had always wished to nibble on her succulent lips while she moan into my mouth. I shrugged off the feeling looming in my heart and sighed.

"Olive" I called. She moved slowly like she heard me but settle down in a comfortable position. I held her hand, squeezing it tenderly. "I will be leaving this night and might not be coming back soon. Though I know I will be back, I have a feeling this might be our last night together. I love you so much and will never stop loving you. I enjoyed every moment spent with you. How you placed your head on my shoulder and when you weren't looking, I had stolen glances at your beautiful face. How we walked side by side, hands clutched in each other down the street". I released my hand from hers and stand up. "I can keep saying these but right now I have to leave. Hope to see you soon". I kissed her forehead and finally left her room.

Martins and Arden were already waiting for me when I got to the warehouse. Martins gave me details on the mission. After making sure everything was ready, we left the warehouse. We will be staying in a place closer to their supposed hideout until we are sure that's their real hideout.
