The Devilish Assassin Meets The Angelic Detective

The morning sun rays entered through the crack in the windows blind. April slowly opened her eyes. She blinked and closed her eyes again as the sunlight was blinding her.

She massaged her throbbing head. She looked up and stared blankly at the ceiling, shedding herself of the remaining glimpse of last night's memory in which she thought it was just a dream.

Her face automatically reddened from that memory of her dream. She had a passionate night with Erick in her dream. She moved a little and she felt that her body was aching especially on her lower part.

She frown. She removed her blanket and she was very shocked to find out that she was n.a.k.e.d underneath. She started to panic.

"Why am I n.a.k.e.d?" she mumbled.

Then she turned to her side only to find out that there was a man who was soundly asleep, his back was facing her.

April's heart started to beat rapidly from nervousness. She gasped from shock.

'Who is he? Damn... Don't tell me... Last night..it was not a dream? Is he Erick? No it's impossible.' She was really confused right now. Her heart was beating like crazy in her chest.

She was still contemplating what to do when the man suddenly moved and he turned around. He was now facing April. April was shock beyond belief seeing the person next to her. It was Bryan!

"Ahhhhh!" April screamed and kicked Bryan with all her strength causing him to fell down the bed.

'Thud.' It was the sound of Bryan's falling off the bed. Bryan was awaken from the scream of April and the impact of falling off the bed.

Bryan stood up and didn't still realize what was happening. April let out another scream when she saw him n.a.k.e.d. She thrown pillows towards him while she closed her eyes.

"Damn Bryan! Cover your body! What are you doing here! What did you do to me! F*ck I will kill you! I will kill you!" April was shouting at him.

Bryan's eyes widened as realization came to him. He immediately grabbed his boxers and pants to wear it.

'Sh*t! Sh*t! April was now awake and sober. I am now a deadmeat!'

April covered her body using the blanket then she picked her gun on her drawer and pointed it to Bryan.

"You Assh*le! What did you do to me!" April was in raged.

"Wait...April calm down... put your gun down! please let me explain!" Bryan's voice was in panic.

"Talk! I won't hesitate to pull this trigger!"

"I will take responsibility of everything that happened last night! Please put the gun down first. Let's talk this out." Bryan pleaded while trying to get near her.

"Stop. Stay there! Don't come near me! I hate you Bryan! I really hate you! Why did you take advantage of me?! I thought you are my friend? Why did you do this to me." April started to cry.

Bryan's expression change. Seeing her like this, it was like his heart was being squeezed. He was now cursing himself from not controlling his self last night.

He didn't regret doing it with her. Last night was the most memorable night in his life. However seeing her like this, he couldn't take it.

He didn't talk but he started to walk toward April with a mixed emotions in his eyes.

When she saw him approaching towards her she warned him again.

"I told you to stay there. Don't come near me! Bryan I will really shoot you. Stop."

Bryan didn't listen to her warning. He just walked towards her.

"Shoot me April. Shoot me! If this is the only way to satisfy your anger and your hatred towards me. I will not stop you. I will not blame you. Just shoot me, if that will make you happy. Just shoot me, if that is the only way you can forgive me." Bryan said to her with so much emotions.

April was stunned when she heard it. Her hand which was holding the gun was trembling. She couldn't do it. She couldn't pull the trigger.

Bryan was now in front of her. He hold her hand which was holding the gun. He was staring straight into her eyes.

"I'm sorry April. I am really sorry."

This time, April dropped the gun and she punched him with all her strength. She was now punching Bryan non stop, hitting him on his chest. Bryan just let her do it in order to vent her anger.

After a few minutes, April stopped. Her hands were now hurt from punching Bryan. She felt also weak and tired. Silence engulfed the entire room, only her whimpering cry would ve heard inside.

When she already calmed down she asked him again "What happened last night? Why did you do it?"

Bryan sighed deeply. "I don't know if you could remember. Last night, you were very drunk. You confessed your feelings to Erick in front of us." Bryan said to her. April's frown then she remembered some blurred memory when she approached Erick last night.

April's eyes widened as realization came to her. 'Sh**t! Why did I do that! Sh**t you are stupid April, very stupid! How can I face Chief Lee after what happened.' She scolded herself.

Bryan continued to tell her what happened. "Chief Lee asked me to take care of you so I brought you back here at your apartment. Last night, you were really drunk. Believe me or not I didn't have any intention to take advantage of you or do you any harm... but last night, you were really drunk."

"You pulled me and suddenly kissed me."

April's couldn't believe it. "Don't lie to me Bryan."

"I am not lying. It was the truth." Bryan insisted.

"Ok... let's say I really did it but you are in your right mind that time. You should have stopped it!"

Bryan paused for a moment before he spoke again. "But I couldn't stop it."

April was now glaring at him "Why?!"

Bryan sighed deeply and looked at her feeling helpless. "Because it was you April! I lost all my control because it was you!"

April was now so confused. Bryan continued what he wanted to say. He looked at her eyes.

"I know it was wrong but I was not able to stop my self. I am sorry April but I want you to know that last night was the greatest night in my life. I didn't regret doing it with you because.... I like you April. I have feelings for you. So how can I stop if the woman in front of me was the woman whom I like? I am just a man April. Last night, your initiative awaken my desire and I couldn't control it." Bryan said to her with his sincerity.

April was dumbstruck upon hearing his revelation. 'What did he say? Bryan likes me? He had feelings for me?' She was now speechless. She didn't know how to react.

"I know I am not the man you like. It was Erick. Even last night, while we are doing it, you were still thinking about him, calling his name." Bryan said while feeling hurt. He smiled at her bitterly. He could still remember how April softly called Erick's name last night.

April was shocked from everything that happened. She stayed silent. She could feel Bryan's pain. She knew the feelings of loving someone one-sidedly.

"April, I want you to know, I am willing to take the responsibility of what happened last night. Please give me a chance. I want to prove to you how serious I am about you." Bryan said to her.

April couldn't absorb everything as of now. She needed time to think. She needed to be alone.

"Bryan, can we talk about this some other time? Please leave... for now I want to be alone."

Bryan understood her so he just nodded. After wearing his clothes, Bryan left her apartment.

April burried her face with her both hands.

'I met Erick's girlfriend. I get drunk. I confessed to Erick in front of them. At the same night after I confessed to the person I like for so many years, I slept with another guy. It was Bryan. Then the next morning, after finding out what happen he also confessed that he has feelings fo me! Sh***t my life was so f*ck up right now! I should blame the alcohol for this mess! Argh! Stupid girl!'
