A Spy's Keeper

A heartbroken spy living in New York city is determined to find her partner and her lost love... Please read because you will simply love it :)
"Caden I can't go on. I'm sorry. My feet are aching, but you need to continue the mission. I'll meet you at the rendezvous after you've installed the camera. You understand?" Akemi panted already slowing down into a jog.
Caden let out a frustrated sigh and turned around to see Akemi sprawled out on the pavement.
"You are the most dramatic partner I have ever been blessed with you know that?"
"Yeah yeah yeah save it for Oprah. Just get the camera installed and then you can complain how I'm slow and an undying drama queen."
He grunted in agreement and walked over to her unmoving form. "You are so useless."
She waved her hand in the air and whined about how her muscles ached.
Caden stealthily ran up the hill leaving his mess of a partner behind. As he approached the headquarters for CBG Corp. he tossed his grappling hook and watched as it latched onto the roof securely.

He jumped onto the wall and for a second thought it was cool to be like spider-man. He grinned at the hilarious thought before slowly lifting himself upon the lattice wall.
He then slipped into the air conditioning vent and found the correct room using a complete layout of the building. He efficiently placed the microscopic camera on the ceiling before quickly exiting and returning to the rendezvous.
"Caden what took you so long, I'm so hungry I could eat a sperm whale."She said already plopped down on a plushy chair at the rendezvous.
"Oh, yea I'm sure you'd love a nice big juicy sperm whale. Hold the whale."
"JERK! PERV! JERK! Ok I'm over it." She said as she twirled her brown unruly hair.
He looked down into her most amazing feature; her moss-green eyes that shone with their own illuminating light.

"The mission went just fine thanks for asking." He puffed annoyed.
"Babe I trust you. Why do you think I let you go all by yourself? Because I knew you'd be alright." She smiled as she hugged him close.
"You're just saying that because you want me to go get you some Wendy's right?"
She looked up at him and said in the most innocent voice, "Of course not babe, I mean it from the bottom of my heart, which, by the way, is right here," she pointed at the bottom of her boob, "and also I'm not trying to distract you."

"Oh really? Then what, Kemi, are you doing?" he breathed.
Akemi giggled silently and poked his nose, "I'm just thanking you that's all. Now since we are on good terms, can you please go get me a double bacon cheeseburger from Wendy's without pickles." She smiled sincerely.
He rolled his eyes and set her aside grabbing his car keys from her hands while he walked out the door.
Akemi didn't know it was the last time she would see him forever.

5 years later
Akemi pranced along the line of dancers that were showing off for the audition. They were dancing to New York New York by Frank Sinatra in front of the lead judges for Julliard.
I need this job. I need this job. She thought to herself as she used lithe movements to top a pirouette.
Well I don't need it to make a living just to distract myself from Caden. The memory replayed in her mind making her almost miss a step.
He's right... maybe I am a drama queen. I mean I didn't see anything horrible or traumatic... but I am scarred. Because he left me. He was my only friend.
That's when the sound of the music coming to end brought her back to reality and she finished the dance well... flawlessly. The judges applauded and all the dancers exited out of the room in an orderly fashion. The girls were all assembled into a stuffy room to await their fates.

"Hey ladies, my name is Kayli and I'm going to get into Julliard. Just letting you know." She flipped her pin straight blond hair and sniffed with a huge nose that belonged on a pig.
"Is that so?" Akemi stepped up already sick of snotty bitches like her. Her day was not going great so far and if this chick thought that she could act superior she had another thing coming to her.
"Yeah, that's right little missy, I saw you dancing out there and you aren't anything compared to my standard of people who should get submitted into Julliard."
Akemi laughed menacingly and approached the girl; the girls surrounding them whispered in each other's ears.

"Oh I agree completely. You're standard is exactly what Julliard wants. Bitchy. Paper-thin. No personality. And no shape what-so-ever."
"How absurd. Trash like you should never be allowed to audition in these sacred dance halls."
Akemi stood just inches away from the other girls face and breathed out. "What are you trying to say?"
"What I'm trying to say is trash like you who have no chance at getting into a school like Julliard should stick your pretty little faces into the ground and stay there." She sniffed out.
"Eat this!" Akemi punched Kayli's humongous nose sending blood spurting out and onto the other's leotards. Akemi laughed when she saw Kayli's eyes bugging out in shock as she whined and cried about how it hurt so much. She slipped into her bad-ass leather jacket and grabbed her duffel bag. Who needs Julliard? I can find the next best thing out there.

Before walking out Akemi stopped to say, "Now you can get a nose job. You should thank me because you really needed it."
The cold air rustled her hair as she walked down the crowded city streets. People bumped into her continuously and she wondered why she picked New York of all cities to live in.
She paid for a taxi to carry her the long 15 blocks to home.
"That'll be $25 Miss." The gruffly old man asked for as she got ready to step out of the mustard yellow cab.
Akemi handed the man the money and began to walk to her door. An unsettling feeling came upon her, as if she was being watched.

The bush began to rustle and she almost wet herself when a crazy figure dressed in all black popped out and began raving and flailing about her porch.
She began to reach for her can of pepper spray when she said, "Gerard you idiot! I almost peed on myself!! Next time you do that I'm going to karate chop your balls off."
"Hey sugar puffs retract your claws please it's just good old Gerard."
"No crap! Gerard please come back later when I'm in a better mood. My head hurts and now because of you, my bladder Is traumatized."
He laughed and took her keys from her hands. "That's why I'm here because you're stuck in your house twenty four seven and are in need of a handsome suave man to fill that gaping hole your heart."

"No I'm in need of a best friend who doesn't scare me."
"No babe. What you need is a man," he smiled while making poses that exenuated his muscles.
Akemi nodded as if really considering and then said "Tell me when you find one."
She snatched her keys from the idiot that was pretending to have a seizure and entered her home. Inside the furniture and belongings were scattered about as if someone had ransacked the place.
What the- she gasped before Gerard came in and said, "Damn Kemi! I thought you were a neat freak... you really let yourself go...."
"Shut up you A-hole."

She set the bags down by the door and stealthily navigated over the scattered debris and broken glass that she was guessing was her ancient china glass setting. After checking all the rooms she decided the house was safe, and went to her safe-room that contained all of her spy gear. Yes, she was initially a spy employed to monitor CGB Corps. (hence the mission in the beginning) and Caden was her partner in crime. Literally.
"Whoa!! You have cool stuff! Hey what does this do?" Gerard pressed the button to a taser and accidentally shocked himself into oblivion.
"Idiotic child I swear one of these days...."
She walked over to his shocked body that was still going through convulsions and dragged him by the scruff of his t-shirt to her bed.

"Hey I'm not that out of it. Are you going to rape me?"
She smiled at the childish joke. "It's not rape if it's wanted Gerard, remember that ok? Sweet Puff." She patted his cheek and walked into her narrow hallway.
"Are they looking for me...?" Akemi whispered tracing her memories back to the time when she was investigating CBG. Supposedly they were forming a cartel with Cuban Industries producing illegal cigars and foreign drugs. She was assigned to gather evidence needed for the F.B.I to act.
The picture of her Gerard and Caden was slanted and she walked over to it and traced Caden's face, also straightening it before walking into the kitchen which was slightly untouched.

Making herself a steaming cup of ramen noodles she curled up on her couch and stared into the cluttered room, dreaming of a life that was filled with Caden and untouched by felons and thieves and criminals.
She sighed out loud and Gerard walked into the room his voice whispered into her thoughts "Still thinking of him huh?"
Akemi sadly smiled at the broken teddy bear on the floor. Whoever did this to her house was going to pay. She'd find the trouble-maker who started all this turmoil in her life. She'd find Caden.
Is this worth continuing?
Yes its amazing. I want more!
No please don't
