"Do you need something?"
"Yeah, I was wondering, since school is over soon can I get a job?"
"No."
"But why not?"
"Because it's not safe out there."
"But Veronica's dead though?"
"My enemy is not just her. There are hundreds of them out there waiting to attack. I don't want you to get hurt so no. Instead, you can help me and I'll pay you."
"How?"
"Sometimes I need stuff done, I'll call you, you help me, I pay you. How's that?"
"Ok."

°Nik's POV°
"Mmm." She groaned in her sleep as I picked her up and brought her to our bedroom.
I placed her carefully on her side of the bed and tucked her in. "Nik..." She breathed out.
"I'm here sweetheart." I caressed her head and kissed her gently.
Laine pulled on my shirt causing me to sit back down from my standing state.
I pecked her forehead and lulled her back to sleep.
She shifted around and groaned for the second time. Now she was facing her right side, I rubbed her back softly and pulled the cover off from her. I walked into the closet and grabbed a fluffy blanket that she seemed to love and my black hoodie that she usually wears.
I strode over to my bed and picked her limp body up as gently as possible to not wake her up. She wore such a thin fabric in such cold weather. I laid her on my chest in a sitting position so she didn't fall back, I stretch the hoodie and put her head through the hole and then her arms. She moaned softly, shushing her back to sleep and putting the hoodie on her completely. She laid back gingerly and snored softly. I tucked her in the fluffy blanket and got up to change my clothes.
My phone dinged with messages. Unlocking my phone I went to the messenger app.
-------------------------------
James: Son, let's talk. Please.
Me: When and where?
James: Julide Park, 10 a.m tomorrow.
James: Where I brought you when you were little, near Shane street.
Me: I know where it is.
James: Thank you, son.
-------------------------------
I let out the breath I was holding. Looking back at everything, I think it's time to finish this matter as well.
I put my phone on the nightstand and laid next to Laine, spooning her. She started rubbing her ass on me. Is she having a wet dream?
"Laine, you're killing me." I whispered in her ear, and as if she could hear me, she let out an inaudible chuckle. "Baby" She rubbed harder and moaned.
Cazzo.
"Laine, please stop." I tried to move but she turned to me and latched her arm around me.
"Nik..." She moaned again. She was rubbing her ass, but now she used her hand to subconsciously touch my genital.
I hissed and my cock flinched inside my pants. "Laine, Laine, stop." This is not going to happen. Cazzo, I'm about to burst. I turned her body around and blocked her hands from touching me. Now I gotta sleep with a boner. She's going to be the death of me.
*The next morning*
"Good morning sweetheart." I kissed Laine's forehead as she opened her eyes.
"Hi. Good morning, where are you going?" She cutely asked.
"I'm going to meet my father. Do you wanna come with?"
She looked at me for a second. "If you need me there, sure."
I nodded at her. "I need you there."
She smiled and got out of bed. "Do you want to join me?" She took off her clothes and walked to the shower naked.
"I just took a bath sweetheart. But ok."
We didn't do the deed yet, but we took baths together. Anything that she feels comfortable with.
*After 1 hour of mostly making out instead of showering in the shower*
"Woah." Laine held on to me.
"Are you ok?" I bent down to her height and observed her. She held her head and tried to stand still without swaying. I picked her up with only a towel wrapped around her frame and placed her on the bed gingerly.
"We're gonna be late." She protested.
"Who cares?" I bluntly answered.
I grabbed us a matching hoodie and sweatpants.
"Come here." I signaled her. Laine got up slowly and came to me, I helped change and dry her wet hair with the towel. "Sit." She sat on the bed and sighed.
I started drying her hair making sure not a drop of water get on her back, drying it from the bottom, and pressing the excess water out of her hair I told her to lay on my chest in her sitting position. She did.
"I don't know if I want to continue with my study anymore." She suddenly said.
"Did something happen?" I asked as I grabbed her hair and flipped it aside.
"No, I just..." She sighed and went limp, "I don't know." She shrugged. I could hear the sadness in her voice, she was holding back tears.
"Laine, if something happened..."
"Nothing Nik, I don't want to continue because I don't even know what I wanna be."
"There's still plenty of time to think about that sweetheart, don't rush it. We'll figure it out, and by the time you know what you want to be, I'll help you achieve it. Whether it be opening a restaurant, hotel, anything. I don't want you to regret not finishing high school and not going to college in the future."
"Yeah, I'll probably regret it." She closed her eyes and tilted her head back. I kissed her lips and watched them pull into a beautiful smile. "I love you, Niki."
I stared at her with a disgusted face.
"What?" She chuckled.
"I love you, Laino." I replied back with much sarcasm.
"That was the worst nickname ever." She rolled her eyes and closed them again.
Soon I heard small snores from Laine. She fell asleep and her hair wasn't even dried yet.
--------------------------------
Me: Hey old man, meet you tonight at my house. Busy right now, can't make it.
--------------------------------
"Nothing is better than to lay by your side." I whispered and kissed her temple.
I love this woman. So much so, I'll let her destroy me.
