Ch13

Chapter Thirteen: Employability

Sands watched as Agent Parker showed the men how to load the guns. Everyone then took a gun from the table and followed the example. Sands was placed in a pair with Paul who went first, aiming to shoot the cardboard man at the end of the firing lane in the head. His aim was slightly low and the bullet went straight through the neck. Paul sighed and fired again and again, using up the bullets, hitting the head once.

Sands followed and aimed his gun at the new cardboard cut out. ‘Decisions decisions...’

Bang... Bang... Bang... Bang... Bang

A few men behind him hissed at the accuracy of his aim and a hand clamped on his shoulder, “Well done, Sands. You’re a natural.” Agent Parker said, observing the two bullet holes in the knees, one in the crotch, one in the head, and one in the heart.

“Thanks.”

“You’ve shot before?”

“Never. Maybe I was just lucky.”

Agent Parker handed him another loaded gun and motioned for him to try again, before standing back.

Bang... Bang... Bang

Twice in the head and once in the heart.

“Luck, eh?”

Sands shrugged and caught sight of Paul in the corner of his eye, giving him a thumbs up.

“I know this sounds harsh Sweetie, but I think you should just move on. It’s been two weeks and you’re nearly falling apart. No guy is worth this.”

“He told me he loved me.”

“I know.”

“You don’t just say that and then disappear!”

“Maybe it was something else. It probably wasn’t even you! Family emergency, perhaps.”

“Don’t you think Kate would have said something?”

Naomi sighed and pulled Liljana into a hug, “I don’t know, Honey.”

A pair of strong arms wrapped around her waist. She leant back, covering his hands with hers. “What do you think?” she asked quietly, studying the series of colour photos.

“I look better in real life.” He said smugly.

Liljana chuckled, “I know.”

Three huge abstract photos were positioned on the white wall, next to each other. One was of a collarbone that was glistening with sweat, another of a partially open mouth with stubble surrounding it and the last was of a spine, taken from above the head, looking down a naked body.

She snuck back into the bedroom with her camera and switched on the dim lamp on her side of the bed, illuminating Sands, who was sprawled out, his legs tangled in the covers. He didn’t stir as she clicked the button, so she kept on clicking, taking full-length photos, some of just his legs. Carefully, Liljana climbed up Sands' body, snapping his peaceful face and features. She shuffled down a bit to his knees and aimed her camera at that small trail of hair, leading down to-“Ah!” Liljana squealed when a strong hand suddenly gripped her wrist.

“That all you’re doing while you’re down there?” He asked sleepily, yawning dramatically.

Liljana caught her breath, “Maybe I was thinking about waking you up in a rather nice way.”

“It’s still night time, Sugarbutt.”

“Yeah, but I couldn’t sleep and I was going to have my wicked way with you.”

“Oh, well in that case, carry on.” He chuckled and Liljana took one last photo of him smiling. ‘What a beautiful sight’ She left the camera beside Sands on the bed and crawled up his body, kissing him thoroughly.

Liljana sat up in bed breathing heavily, her heart racing, her body drenched in sweat. ‘I’m not going to cry. I’m not. No. Not going to cry...’ She kicked the covers off and climbed from her bed, unhooking her dressing gown from the back of her door and padding down the hall to the bathroom. The door shut quietly behind her and she turned the taps on, letting the water fill the bath.

She sat on the closed toilet seat and rested her head in her hands, closing her eyes as she listened to the water run.

Liljana wondered why she was so bothered about Sands. He was hot. Sexy. She cared about him. No, wait. She loved him. She was in love with him. "Great. The first guy I fall in love with tells me he loves me and then disappears. I’m ruined for life." She chuckled humourlessly to herself and reached over, letting the hot water run over her fingers.

When the bath had filled, she tested the water briefly, before shedding her dressing gown and easing into the tub, sighing as the hot water soothed her body and the faint smell of lemon bubble bath soothed her mind. Her head rested against the back of the tub and she allowed her eyes to close gently, trying to empty her mind.

Liljana thought of shopping, fluffy bunnies and pink pyjamas, but her mind kept wandering back to Sands. She couldn’t help it. Lingerie shopping with Sands, lying entwined with him after a bout of lovemaking wearing pink silk pyjamas.

She bit her lip hard enough to draw blood, her eyes scrunching up, chastising herself. Grabbing the shampoo, she squirted a big blob on her hand and started to massage it into her wet hair.

Liljana sat between Sands’ legs in the bath, leaning back against his bare chest. One of his hands wrapped it’s way around her stomach, briefly dipping between her thighs before leaving the water. Liljana moaned in resistance, but stopped when Sands’ hands started to run through her damp hair, massaging shampoo in until the bubbles were running down her shoulders into the water. Her lips curved into a massive grin as she felt Sands moulding her bubbly hair into a big spike on top of her head.

“How do I look?”

“It suits you.”

“Punk rocker.”

“It’s turning me on.”

“You’re always turned on.” Sands shifted his hips and Liljana giggled lightly as something hard poked her butt. It sure as hell wasn’t the rubber duck.
