Song: If I killed someone for you- Alec Benjamin

A few weeks later I go back into town late at night just to see if I can bump into the girl and whoever the guy is that threatened me. I watch from across the road as she climbs into one car and a little while later she comes back. I watch for a while just to see how he interacts with her and every so often he walks up to her and grabs her by the arm, once he even hits her.

 I wait till another car pulls up and she gets in. Then when I know that no one is watching I get out the gun with the scope. I aim and within seconds I pull the trigger and it hits him right in the neck. No one sees him take his last breath. I'm sure the only one that will give a fuck is her and even then she might be relieved that he is gone as well. I wait for a few seconds before leaving just to make sure no one noticed a thing.I guess I should have called a cleaner or that is what my dad would have done but I want her to find him. I want her to see that she will be free from him for the rest of her life.

To my surprise the very next night she is out on the streets again giving it up still. She could care less if he is gone or not but I guess at least his way she will get all the money instead of having to share with him. I need to get laid but I decide not to get it from a hooker. I need her. I don't give a shit who her husband is. I just need to see her.

I get in the car and go over to Jasper's parking in his driveway. I walk over and knock on the door. I was a little surprised to see him come to the door. "How can I help you?"

"Oh...uhm...I'm sorry I guess I got the wrong house." I look off the porch towards the houses to the left and then to the right.

"Well who are you looking for maybe I can help you?"

"I...uhnm..." I see Layla coming down the stairs behind him and she sees me. Our eyes meet and I notice the little shiner right below her eye. I look back at him. "Did you hit here?"

"That doesn't concern you...it is none of your business."

I was about to say something when she walks over and grabs her husband by the arm. "Honey he is just the boy in the neighborhood...he helps tutor the boys."

He looks back and me and then down at her and he sees right through her lie. "Is this the boy you been fucking behind my back."

"Y..." I started to say to him because for one I am not scared of his ass.

But she laughs it off. "No...God no...I told you I am not fucking anyone but you; will you please stop accusing everyone of fucking me. Hello he is just a kid."

A kid my ass. I can make her come in two seconds. Hell I can keep it going for hours and that is why she was happy to be with me not him.

She turns to me and tries to give me smile. "Mekhi it's late did you forget something a book perhaps or your backpack. I can look later if you want."

"No...no ma'am no worries. I see that you two have things to do and I'm sorry for interrupting. I guess I better get going." I turn and take off down the steps. I go over to Jaspers and enter without knocking. They are so use to me being here it is like I live here.

 I go up the stairs and into the one room to watch them. I see the living room lights go off but then the bedroom light comes on. I watch him hit her across the face and then he punches her hard in the stomach. I am about to go back over but then he leans down and pulls her up. He kisses her and she kisses him right back. I watch them make out.I grit my teeth wishing to kill him. I wanted him dead and out of the way.I know that I should just let it go and I would have if I hadn't bumped into her the next morning.

I was on my way out and she was getting her car. She has on a pair of sunglasses with a sun hat; I guess she thinks she can hide all the bruises. I stand in the way so that she can't back up the car. When she sees me she puts the car back into park and rolls down the window. "Mekhi you should not be here."

"Is this just a game you? I'm just a quick fuck when he is not around."

She looks behind her and I see the kids in the backseat. I really don't give a fuck at the moment. I look around to see if he is around. "He is gone for now. Mekhi you can't come over anymore...I'm...I'm sorry but you just can't." She pushes up the glasses on her nose.

"You would rather that punk ass beat the shit out of you. I can take care of you better than he can you know."

"Mekhi...you're just a boy. You can't support me and my kids. Look it was nice while it lasted it really was but he would never let me go even if I wanted to leave."

"Do you want to leave him? Believe me I can find away to take care of you." I reach over and take her glasses off to see the pretty shiner on her upper cheek and the nice blackened eye. "And I promise I would never hurt you not like this."

She pushes me away and puts her glasses back on. "I'm sorry Mekhi...please don't." She rolls up the window and backs out of the drive way.

I just stand there and watch her go. Its funny how one can fall in love just lie that with a woman. I never meant to fall in love with her however I have been going over there for months now fucking her, spending time with her kids like I belonged there. I did belong as long as he was not there once he was home I was out the door. I meant nothing to her. I showed her that I was a better man but in the end she still chose him. I needed him gone.

I started to follow him out in the streets. I became aware of everywhere he went. I planned the perfect timing to get rid of him. He stopped at a store to grab a coffee. I walk in pretending that I am buying something. I watch as he sits the coffee down on the counter but the then turns to go to the back to use the restroom. I wait a few minutes and then walk toward the back. I keep my head down so that if there are cameras no one will see me. I open the restroom door and he looks over at me. He grits his teeth when he looks back into the mirror above the sink. "You are that boy. What the fuck do you want?"

"Do you get off beating the shit out of your wife?"

He starts laughing. "Like that is a fucking concern of yours." He looks around. "Are you fucking my wife?"

"Maybe...at least I can get her off." I smirk.

He turns and steps closer to me, to threaten me. His hand tightens its hold on his gun and he jerks it out in seconds and aims it right at my head. "I should kill your ass." It's the first time that I had the end of a gun right at my face.

"Yeah...about that..." I reach up with my handheld with the silencer and pop his ass in his right eye. He falls backwards and crashes right into the sink then to the floor. Blood spews out of the back of his head. I laugh. "Bet you won't ever hit her again will you." I quickly go out the back door as if I was never there. I keep my head down until I walk back around and get in my car and drive away.

I go straight to her house and knock on the door. She comes running down the steps and opens the door for me, wrapping the belt tighter around her robe. "You should not be here. He is on his way home."

"Layla...let me stay the night with you. We need to talk...I need to talk to you."

"Mekhi you have to leave...look at yourself are you fucking drunk...go home...not tonight baby." She reaches up and kisses my lips then steps back and closed the door.

By the time I get home my blood is pumping and I just want to let off some steam. I park the car in the garage and get out. I look down at my clothes and blood is plattered on them so I start to strip and put the clothes in the fire pit to burn all the evidence.

 I'm standing there with my boxers on in front of the flames when I hear someone walk up behind me. "Do you have any idea what time it is? Why in the hell are you out here half naked and staring at the fire...what the fuck did you do this time?" My dad glares down at me.

"Nothing...don't worry about it I have it all under control. I'm sorry for waking you guys up."

"Doesn't look like nothing. I better not find out what you really did...I'm sure it must be something serious if you are burning your clothes."

"Just getting rid of a girl dad...her fucking scent is all over my clothes and well we just broke up." I lie to him. No way in hell I am telling him that I killed a cop.

"Girls...yeah they will fuck with your mind; come on now get in the house."

"Yes sir." I walk inside behind him. Once in my room I jump in the shower.

The next day I head over to Jaspers and there are cops outside of her house with all their flashing lights. I don't bother going over. I run up to Jasper's room. He is in bed with Kelly. "Dude don't you ever fucking knock."

"Sorry...didn't realize you had company." I grin at him. "Man what is going on next door?"

"Like I am supposed to know; can you please get the fuck out of here?"

"Yeah...man whatever. I will catch you later." I throw a pillow at him. "By the way your parents are home man."

"Oh shit! Kelly you got to go they will kill me knowing you stayed the night."She groans as she sits up.

I run back downstairs and leave. I wanted to go over there but then with the cops there they will be asking all kinds of questions and I'm not ready to go to jail. I decided to leave her alone for the week.

By the end of the week though there is a moving truck outside her house. I run over and knock on the door. She is wearing a pair of faded jeans and a shirt. She has her hair all thrown up in a huge messy bun. I would love to take it down and let my hands run though it before kissing the shit out of her. I lean into her and she throws her hand up between us. I watch as she looks around a little panicked. "You should not be here."

I reach for her arm to pull her up close to me. I already know he is out of the way so no one is here to catch me with her. "What the fuck is going on?" I so want to wrap my arms around her and let her cry on my shoulder.

She quickly steps back putting her hand up between us. Her eyes start to fill with tears. "Mekhi...Samuel is dead. He was shot...someone killed him in a fucking restroom of all places a restroom in a fucking store."

I try to reach for her again but she steps backwards putting more space between us. "This is good right...we can be together now."

The way she looks at me it's like she might know that I had something to do with it. "Mekhi you should leave. Look I'm moving back to my home town I have no reason to stay here now."

I look back at her in confusion. "What about us?"

"There was no us...it was just your imagination. Please don't make this any worse than it all ready is. Please go."

I slam my fist against the door frame. "Even with him gone you still don't want me. You think I am just a little boy. I can take care of you."

"Did you have something to do with this...Mekhi tell me the truth? I never wanted him..." she stops talking with the door opens up.

We both watch as an older couple comes out of the house carrying boxes. The older lady stops and looks at her. I assume it's her mother right off she looks so much like her. "Honey is everything ok."

"Yes...this is Mekhi..." She glances up at me with this unknowing look. "I was just telling him we will no longer be needing his help with the boys assignments."

"Oh...well we are glad you were able to help the boys out. I'm sure they will miss you."

I give her this look and bite my tongue. I killed him for us to be together. I did this for her and she stands there and acts like nothing ever happened between us. I run my hand through my hair and just walk away, fucking bitch.

"Mekhi..." she calls out but I don't bother turning around. What is the point?
