Pure Assassin (8)

The story progressed as usual and after the accident, Tory started avoiding Tiphany which left a hole in the latter's heart.

Tiphany wasn't a bad girl from what they noticed she was always ready to apologize if she did something wrong, her only mistake was being Diego's daughter and she might not even know who her father really is.

Tip watched Tory and Hetz eating and hesitated whether to go sit with them or not. 'The worst is they will send me away

With a deep breath she stood up from her table, ignoring the surprised looks on her friend's face, she walked directly to where Tory was sitting and a small involuntary sigh escaped her lips before she could put out a word.

"Hello, may I sit with you?"

"Well we don't own the cafeteria, do we?" Hetz scoffed and Tory glared at him.

"Ignore him, you can sit if you want," Tory said with a bit of a stutter.

Tip smiled politely and sat down beside her, she noticed Tory shift away from her. "Are you still angry I said I'm sorry..."

Silence loomed over that particular table for some time before Tory finally spoke up in a mumble.

"I am not angry with you...I...you saw me in my weak state so you must feel...I'm very..."Tory sighed.

Tip's eyes widened, it turned out to be this, so he had a crush on her? she inwardly chuckled. "I would never think that"

What happened next made Tory freeze, Hetz was so shocked he chopped on his rice, even some others in the cafeteria had seen it.

While the others were thinking of her as lucky, Hetz could see the youngster's face didn't look so good, he was about to blow.

Tory had expected something like a warm smile or even a hug but when Tip pecked him on the lips, his entire demeanor changed but only Hetz noticed it.

She couldn't sacrifice the mission, so left with no other choice she behave like a shy teenager and ran out of the cafeteria, Hetz following right behind her.

"Are you okay?" Hetz asked, starting at Tory who was washing his lips like he was going to tear them apart.

"You tell me, I just got molested by a sixteen year old" Tory made a face and continued washing his lips.

"I thought she was your crush?" Hetz mocked with stifled laughter.

"Might as well become yours, my heart can take it" as much as she would love to do anything for the mission, her body was not one of them.

After taking his time he came back to the cafeteria wearing the expression of a love-struck teenager and seeing Tip was no longer there he sighed in relief.

Then they started going out together but Tory made sure nothing more than a hug happened between them and as time went by he became bolder and would even tease her.

As fate would have it, Tory was invited to Diego's birthday party by Tip. An opportunity to explore the house, too bad she couldn't take Hetz with her.

On a special night, the suit was ready, it was not too fancy showing he was not very rich but it was fancy enough to make others not look down on her too much.

This time Tory had to be dashing so when he was already clad in his suit, he performed magic on his hair and the grand finish made him look like a CEO of some cooperation but he wasn't done yet.

Agent Blitz her 'aunt' had to install several things in her suit for tonight.

When Tory walked out of her room with her hand in her pocket the others stood shocked.

"Well, how do I look?" Tory asked, fishing for compliments.

"All I gotta say is, the uniform makes you really ugly, you're gonna give some girls a heart attack tonight" Blitz chuckled.

"Thanks, aunt" Tory gave a satisfied smile.

"Tch don't let it get to your head, you don't look that good" Hetz said before walking away.

Tory gave him a strange look but decided to ignore it, the guy had been having a lot of mood swings lately so it wasn't all that surprising.

The scene changed and standing in front of the entrance, Tip was welcoming the guests while also waiting for her boyfriend. 'I wonder how he will look tonight'

As if responding to her thoughts, she spotted Tory in the crowd and she could not help but gasp, covering her mouth she quickly regained her composure.

When it was finally time to welcome Tory she fought against her will not to take him away but she still had to continue welcoming the guests.

Tory nodded in understanding and entered without her. He found a quiet place to stay and curiously look around but as handsome as she was looking tonight, how could she not gain attention.

It wasn't even a minute yet and some girls were already making their way towards him but fortunately Bianca came first.

"Hey Tim" Bianca greeted with a smile, it wasn't a surprise she was here, as it turned out she was Tip's half sister or at least that was what Tory heard.

"Bianca..." turning to the bees that had temporarily stopped moving towards him, she gave her a grateful expression. "Thanks for saving my butt"

Bianca chuckled. "Tip might get jealous if you're so free with me"

"As it turns out, she's my girlfriend so there is nothing to be worried about" Tory smiled.

"You sure took your time getting ready" Bianca said, scanning him from head to toe.

"Easy for you to say, the pressure of meeting her dad made me change four times" Tory lied through her teeth with a sigh in the end.

"I'm sure he wouldn't even care about you" Biance rolled her eyes.

Their conversation was interrupted by the sudden lights and then a voice sounded out of nowhere.

"Ladies and Gentlemen, let us welcome the birthday man...Dr. Diego"
