Right after their discussions for their upcoming plan, Hugh Turner decided to stay for a while to have his mind relax. His weeks made him even more exhausted, he knows he needs to take a break and chill. Kendall and Maxwell went their way home, Hase on the other hand stayed with him.
"I really envy you asshole." Hugh jokingly muttered which made Hase glanced at his direction.
"What's with the sudden feeling?"
Turner chuckled and slammed his body to the couch, "You're always out for a short vacation, or Lucas would assign you to some easy tasks."
"That doesn't make any sense to me." The man replied and glanced on the refreshing waves at the shore. He is deeply aware that it is unfair to the rest of the team to know that he is simply enjoying his assigned tasks because Lucas Patterson would place him in a favorable spot.
"You better take care of yourself, Rutledge." With a surprised look, Hase gazed at the man who spoke. Hugh Turner has those stern expression, Hase knew the guy is being serious.
"Is there any threat coming my way?" Rutledge questioned, he is completely unaware that someone is chasing over his life to steal his breath. There are indeed times where he is careless and would dared to befriend anyone for some reason that he attracts them.
"Asshole, someone is aiming for your head. Do you even know how serious that is?"
"Easy." Hase Rutledge chuckled upon seeing the reaction of the man beside him. "Don't be too serious, I'd be glad if you have those pretty smirks on your face while I'm dying." He cracked a joke which made Hugh Turner even gloomy, before he could enjoy a cup of coffee, he was alarmed when the man stood up and turned his back facing the exit.
"Where are you heading?" Asked Rutledge.
"I'm going somewhere else, I'd like to have a coffee at the Cafe I always visits to. You better not be acting like a fool being clueless at everything. Your life is at stake and I swear I'm going to kill you if you're harmed."
He went his way out of the lobby and walks with heavy steps. Hase Rutledge could not even speak, he was at dazed as how Hugh cared for him. Though, it is way too rare for a brother to show his care towards him. Still, he felt grateful.
"I better go back and enjoy the rest of the day before coming straight home," he whispered.
Hugh Turner had his exit at the resort and ride his car. He is disturbed upon the thought that the person who is aftering the life of a companion is the woman whom he nearly adored. "I thought she was as innocent as I think, but it turns out she's a wolf behind a sheep-clothing."
He could not restart his engine, he remained quiet for a moment and glanced at the resort once again. He is deeply concerned about Rutledge's whereabouts, the fact that their opponent is cunning as a serpent yet appears harmless as a dove makes him even more anxious. We never know what is coming ahead of them.
He took a deep breath and drove his car. Passing by the Davika's bridge, he came across a familiar woman walking with her stunning sage bikinis on. His heartbeat nearly paused upon witnessing the beauty, he momentarily parked his car at the side of the road and slide down the window. He called her name and he grabbed her attention really quick.
"Turner? What are you doing here?" She seems surprised, by the look that her eyes widened and her walks toward his direction is in rush, he knows she is a bit nervous to see him around.
"I had an encounter with a friend, I passed by this resort and saw you so I had to stop and at least greet you."
Fuentes scanned the man's countenance to affirmed that he is telling the truth, she found none to be suspicious about. "I was trying to chill out alone, these days are a bit depressing, I must say."
"She still looks gorgeous inspite of all her flaws," Turner whispered at the back of his head.
"I'm heading at the Cafe, I thought you were working at these hours."
"I have the staffs to do the work, you can visit there anytime." Fuentes let go of a smile and he sure captured his heart again, making him blind. She is an enemy, yet he fell for her traps.
"Would you like to come with me and have a coffee with me? I really admire the elegance of your Cafe. Don't worry, I'll drive you back here."
"It's the only thing that keeps me running, but are you asking me for a date? Sorry but I think I'll just have to go home early and laugh at that idea." She cracked a joke and darted her gaze at him.
"What?"
"It's just some friendly date, what's wrong with that?" Turner mutterly asked.
"You're just probably one of those who aims to kill me before I even laid my fingers on them." Fuentes tattled at the back of her head.
"Alright." She went in the passenger's seat and they had their leave.
The atmosphere feels a bit tense, the two of them remained quiet. Though, Turner knows that his life is at risk since she could rip off his head any moment.
"Look, you might as well think I'm way too fast or something, but I really want to get to know more about you." His tongue slipped and eventually break the ice between them yet it was never a good idea to confess in that way.
"You'll regret it."
"I know, but I really like you." He could not control his mouth from spilling the emotions that has disturbed him for weeks. He knows it is dicey, but he just let his foolish feelings take over his senses.
"I told you to never get close to me, you're so hardheaded." She lowers her voice, making her sounds like she is simply whispering all those words.
"You can't like me, idiot. Erase that from your vocabulary," she asserted.
"Should I beg for an apology that somewhere along the way, I started to care about you?" Turner's voice became more dramatically serious, he showed a weak side of him. Since then, he knew he literally surrendered himself to his enemy. He lose.
"Can you even picture it out? You and I together?" She has no intention of entertaining him, yet knowing that men could be deceiving, she wants to overtake him.
"I think I can love you, Renesmee."
"No, you can't."
"Why? Is there something wrong by just liking you?"
"You can't, I'm pushing you away. There is no way you'd do it, why would you even dare to mess up with me?" She felt threatened by his simple phrases, it makes her feel disgusted.
"Don't make me spell it out for you, Renesmee. You already know how much I want you."
"I won't let you." She harshly asserted.
"What's with all the reasons? Can't I win your heart?"  Fuentes smirks upon hearing his words, she is aware that she have to play along. If it means breaking his heart, she will.
"You can't win against someone who has nothing to lose, I'm telling you." Her words messed up his mind, he couldn't think straight. Confusion filled him and he felt rejected.
"Just stop over." He did what she told him, he felt defeated already. "Liking me won't do any good. I'm not what you think I am, stop that foolishness."
She went off the car yet he followed her. His feet hastily caught her steps and he pulled her into a tight hug. It was her who gently pushed him away. She gazed at him, "Don't feed yourself to sharks, if you are drowned in the deep, do your best to learn how to swim. Survive, bastard."
