Agent B's point of view

"I honestly don't believe the bullshit you're trying to feed me here." I said as I talked to Rachael on the phone.

"Please Agent B, you've gotta help me!" She cried and it sounded too dramatic to be real. "Please, I-I'll do anything."

"I need nothing from you." I said and she begged with more force, like she was trying not to yell at me. "Can it you mutt."

"I've been here for three fucking days-"

"Aww poor you," I said, faking care. "You're not a prisoner Rachael, stop trying to bullshit me. I've seen and heard people who were truly kidnapped and held hostage, this is all bullshit."

"My life is not a game Ga-"

"Don't you fucking dare." I said lowly and threateningly. "I will kill you with my own two hands."

"You think I don't know who you are Agent B? I know everything." She said and I bit into my fist. "So unless you want me to have people swing by and rat you out for all the bullshit you are, come and save me."

"I'd rather have them hate me than to lead them right into a trap where they can die." I growled into the phone.

"Really? So you'd be okay if, let's say Calum, turned his back on you? Gave you the cold shoulder?" She asked me.

"Perfectly fine because there's nothing going on between us at all. If you come in with guns blazing just fucking know, I'll be right behind the door, two steps ahead of you. You have no chance." I told her.

"I don't know what fucking game you're playing at here Rachael, but I bet if Savanna was still alive, she'd be way more than just disappointed."

"Don't you dare bring her up, you didn't even know her!"

"I don't have to in order to know that even you're well aware of that tiny fact. Face it, if she was alive you wouldn't be doing this." I said and then hung up.

"What was that about?" Calum asked and I shook my head. He yawned and then sat down beside me, leaning his head on my shoulder. "Do you mind?"

"No, just use me as a pillow, that's what I'm here for." I said and he nodded as he laid down, laying his head on my thigh. "Your friend Rachael is a backstabbing, two faced, bitch."

"Obviously." He said and I nodded. "Can you tell me a story of when you were in highschool?" He asked.

"That's such a long time ago."

"Please? How did you meet your first girlfriend?" He asked and I hummed.

"We met at a football game, she was a cheerleader and I was friends with her twin, who was the complete opposite of her. I went over and accidentally walked in on her changing from her outfit and she made out with me. I asked her on a date to get to know her and she agreed." I told him and he snorted.

"How romantic." He said and I nodded. "You saw that booty and was like damn?" He asked me and I laughed.

"Something like that I guess?" I said and he hummed, mumbling something. "What did you say? Speak up."

"You have a very nice laugh, I don't see why you don't laugh more often." He said and I shrugged.

"I don't find anything to be funny anymore really, it's usually painfully irritating and ignorant." I said and he nodded. "Nothing's funny to me."

"You know what's kinda funny?" I hummed and he laughed. "When we weren't in this trouble, when we didn't know we could ever be in this much danger, we'd never take anything seriously. I remember Michael nearly pulled his dick out on camera, Ashton beating a plastic pony with a stick, Luke blushing as the word masturbate." He said and I nodded.

"And what about you?"

"I married the band when we went to Vegas." He said and I nodded. "I swear I'm not gay though, I just... I love the band." He told me.

"Well the band doesn't love you if they haven't bought you a ring." I said and he looked at his hand. "Might want to see a lawyer about divorce papers."

"Probably will." He said and laughed. I chuckled lightly and he asked if I wanted to play some video games.

"I haven't played video games since... since arcades were still reeling people in." I said and he laughed.

"Come on." He said. He stood up and grabbed my hand leading me towards the television. He turned on the Xbox and then he handed me a controller. "Don't smash it, it's Michael's."

"I'll keep that in mind." I said and smiled smally at him. He nodded and then started a game of Fifa with me.

I didn't know what I was doing, so he was winning by a lot of points. I laughed and pushed him away from me. "No fair, I've never played Fifa." I told him and he explained all the controls to me. "Couldn't have done that earlier you dick?"

"Nah." He said and I rolled my eyes, attempting to remember all of the controls as he started a new game.

The game wasn't close at all, I was losing by four points, but at least I actually made a score or two. "Do you want to know a secret?" He asked and I hummed. "No one can beat me at the game."

"At least you're not completely useless." I said and he rolled his eyes as he laughed. We played a couple of more times, he won them all, and I decided to call it quits.

"I haven't even played real soccer in so long, let alone virtual." I told him and he nodded. "If I didn't have to protect four boys, maybe I'd go out and play... probably not actually."

"You taught me how to shoot a gun, I can teach you how to play soccer like a pro." He said and I looked at him, laughing lightly. "Sounds like a plan, no?" He asked as he held his hand out for me to shake.

"It's a deal." I said and he laughed as he smiled. "If we miraculously find time and I can see that we're totally fine, maybe we don't have to stay cooped up in a dumb hotel room." I told him.

"God I'd love that so much, I hate having to stay indoors for so long." He said and I nodded. "Wanna see me play? I have videos on my phone. My mum would send them to me and Michael would too because they loved how I played."

I nodded and he pulled his phone out, opening his gallery. He went to the one with a soccer ball emoji and then we looked through the videos on it.

He was a good soccer player, I'll give him that.

"So I see you haven't died yet Agent B." William said and I rolled my eyes as I crossed my arms.

"Jealous I lasted longer than you?" I taunted and he laughed.

"No, we were just told that you'd be joining us soon." He said and I rose an eyebrow. "Everybody goes at some point." He told me.

"Fair enough, I'm not at all afraid to die." I said and he nodded, telling me he was well aware. "Where's the chick? Savanna?"

"Business with the big man." He said and I nodded. "You've been getting close to Calum, yeah?"

"Not really." I said and eyed him suspiciously. "How would you know?" I asked as he folded his arms and put them behind his head.

"I guess you can call me and Savvy your guardian angels." He said and winked at me.

"I just threw up in my mouth."

"So, I heard Rachael is being a little psycho." He told me and I nodded. "Blinded by love." He tsk'ed and I arched an eyebrow.

"Obviously."

"I know how you're gonna die by the way." He said and a look of sadness overtook his hazel eyes. "Want me to spill?"

"I want my death to be a surprise Mr. Irwin, don't go telling me how it's gonna end." I said and chuckled. "I'd rather find out for myself, maybe it'll be shocking."

"It'll be... It'll be tear jerking."

"Boohoo, little boys gonna cry over me." I fake pouted and he rolled his eyes. "They don't give a flying fuck, sell your bullshit to someone who will buy it."

"We'll have to part soon." He said and I nodded. "Don't stain the walls." Was all he said and I hummed in confusion.

"What?"

"Goodbye."

-

"Agent B?" I hummed as someone shook me and I looked at Calum. All the boys were piled by my bed and I sat up, a grunt escaping my lips as I held my side.

"What's going on?"

"Rachael's at the door and we don't want to open it because we're scared." Calum told me and Luke scoffed.

"You're scared, I just don't want to keep her waiting. She escaped and needs help." He said with crossed arms and a deep scowl. "Your fears are invalid."

"Your input is unnecessary." Calum snapped and I grabbed his arm. He looked at me and his gaze softened. "Do we open the door or pretend we're not here?"

"I'll open the door, stay in here." I said and Calum grabbed my hand, helping me stand up. "Can you see my babdages?"

"No?"

"Good." I said and then took a gun, putting it behind me in the waistband of my shorts. I covered it with my shirt and then walked to the hotel door, looking through the peephole.

I opened the door, keeping the chain on it and she chuckled. "Open the door agent." She said, attempting to force it open.

"What do you want Rachael?"

"You know want I want Agent." She said and laughed. "Open the fucking door." She said and there was a buzzing in my head.

Not now.

"Go away or I'll be forced to take the matters into my own hands." I said and she laughed.

"Aw, did little Calum soften you up? You would have killed me by now if he didn't." She growled and I closed my eyes. "Open this door Agent."

"No." I said and jumped from the door when she kicked at it.

"What's going o-"

I nearly jumped at the loud click of a gun with a silencer on it and I stepped away from the door. "Yeah, I have a gun. Now open the door." She said but I didn't do it. "Very well."

She shot the chain and the door slammed open, a loud bang filling the room. "Where are they?" She asked and I reached behind me. "Not so fast." She said, pointing the gun at me.

I held the gun up and she pointed at the ground. "Drop it and stand down agent." She said and I grit my teeth. "Drop your fire Agent B." She said louder the the gun hit the floor with a loud thump.

"Now let's talk."
