I waved my hand over the flickering flame and entertained myself with watching the wax drip down the side of the candle.Eli was sat beside me on a bean bag and Beth and Tom were on the opposite side of the room having a serious conversation."So, you and Blake made up," Eli said lowly."We didn't make up," I said."But you're talking now.""I guess."Eli nodded."You know, Adam doesn't hate you as much now," I said."He doesn't?""Don't get me wrong, he still doesn't like you, but the hate is just a little less.""Why?""You saved my life. Maybe if I nearly die a few more times and you help keep me alive then he might start liking you."Eli smirked and shook his head. "Adam and I will never get along. He's too proud.""Why? What happened between you two that made you not get along?""It's a few things," Eli shrugged."Spill the beans, we've got time," I said."I'll talk to you if you stop looking at that damn candle and look at me, princess," Eli said and I slowly turned to face him.

I dropped the file on Rob's desk and crossed my arms over my chest. "Done."Rob picked up the file and raised his eyebrows. "Already?""I wasn't one of the best agents for no reason, Rob," I tutted. "Right, I'm off-""Not so fast," Rob said and shook his head. He pointed the the chair opposite his desk and I sighed and sat down."What?""Are you okay?""You did not make me stay and talk to you just so you can ask if I'm okay," I said and rolled my eyes. "What do you want?""Your help.""You want my help? I thought I couldn't be trusted. Why would you want my help?""You can't be trusted," Rob shrugged, "but you're one of the few people that I can trust.""Funny how that works out, eh?" I smirked."I'm preparing for a mission," Rob said."Shocker.""I want you on it.""Bummer.""It's big, Daisy. Believe it or not, but we aren't exactly a secret."I faked surprise. "Really?""Daisy, this is serious. We aren't the only organisation like us, there are more out there, however only one can

It was that night again. The night it happened. I could see Michael Moore clearly, above me.I was screaming and crying, begging him to stop, but he wouldn't.It wouldn't stop."Daisy!""No!" I yelled. "Please!""DAISY!"My eyes flew open and I gasped loudly, looking up into Eli's eyes. "Shit," I coughed. I was sweaty and hot. "Bad dream.""No shit," Eli said and slowly released my wrists. "You tried to hit me.""Sorry," I muttered and rubbed my eyes, taking long breaths. "But you probable deserved it."Eli ignored the last sentence. "You alright?""Fine.""Liar," he scoffed and I narrowed my eyes at him."The nightmares are getting better. That's the first one I've had in a while," I said."No, it's the first one you've remembered in a while," Eli said and I frowned at him. "You get them quite frequently, you just don't remember dreaming about them. They started to get worse after you killed him.""That was two months ago.""I'm aware of that. I'm a light sleeper. I think I'm the onl

"Okay, Daisy, go," Joey said. Him, Oli and Erik were quizzing everyone on their covers. The three of them were actually on the mission, however they were staying at the Agency and working behind the scenes, dealing with the information we would send to the Agency.Currently they were quizzing us on the reasons why we got put into the group homes.I sighed and crossed my arms over my chest. "I'm there for numerous reasons really. Theft, arson, breaking and entering, running away from one of my many foster homes while on probation. I'm basically a devil child," I said and rolled my eyes.Blake seemed surprised at my knowledge of my cover."Blake, I would rather be anywhere than here preparing for a mission, but it doesn't mean I can't remember a stupid bit of paper," I said. "I know I'm a loose canon, but I'm not going to screw up the mission. I may not do anything to help it, but I'm not going to stop everyone in it.""That's the team spirit we all love," Carter chuckled."Why are you

Blake grabbed my arm as I walked out of the kitchen and I halted. I wanted nothing more than to rip his hand off me and run from his touch, but I remained still, kept a calm expression and turned to Blake."What?" I snapped.Blake raised an eyebrow, seeming impressed. "Eli's really worked his magic, you're not even tensing up," he said and slowly let go of my hand. "Too bad that I know you better. You're good at pretending Daisy.""If you know me better then you'll know not to touch me!" I said and stepped back from him. "To everyone else it looks like I'm all cured," I said sarcastically. "And I want it to stay that way. I hate it. I hate being touched, but everyone thinks I'm over it. You can't tell anyone."Blake crossed his arms over his chest. "Why?""Because they look at me like I'm broken! Like they can't do anything without me freaking out! I can't stand it. This way they think I'm better.""But you're not.""No.""Does Eli know? He's the one you've mainly been sparring with.

I woke up the next morning and stumbled out of bed. It was the day of the mission and I could already hear everyone moving about and getting ready. The kitchen was packed and I elbowed Eli out of my way so I could reach the kettle to make some coffee.Eli caught my arm. "Just because I'm the only one who you can touch without being frightened, doesn't give you the excuse to elbow me, princess," he said into my arm and I gasped when he elbowed me back. "It's not so nice, is it?"I stuck my middle finger up at him and glared, but turned to the kettle and made myself some coffee."We're leaving at 10am!" Blake's voice yelled. "Everyone better be ready."I groaned and took a sip of much needed coffee. I was not looking forward to this mission."Daisy, I'm making pancakes, do you want some?" Joey asked."Not hungry," I said."But I'll have some," Mason said and clapped Joey on the back. "Cheers mate." Mason turned to me and smirked. "Awh, is poor little Daisy upset about going on a mission

I was sitting outside of the house on the steps. It had been an hour since I had arrived and I already hated it."Hello!"I looked to the side as a little girl with pig tails sat next to me and looked up with big brown eyes."Hey," I said."I'm Lily," she said and held her hand out.I chuckled and shook it, she looked no older than 8. "Daisy."She gasped. "We both have flower names! That so cool!""Hmm," I nodded."What happened to your face?"I cursed the bruises on my face. I was a fast healer, but bruises seemed to stay for weeks. "Nothing," I shrugged."It had to be something, silly," Lily said."I was punched," I said and Lily gasped."What!""Joking," I said smoothly and chuckled at Lily who let out a big sigh."Phew," she said. "So what happened?""I walked into a door," I lied."Now that was silly," Lily giggled."It was, wasn't it?" I nodded and I stiffened when I heard footsteps. It was the guys from across the road."Sammy!" Lily grinned and jumped up from the steps and ran

My next class was literature and I really wasn't feeling it. I wandered around the school until I found a door that led outside. I smirked and walked round the back of the school, leaning back against the wall and reaching into my jacket pockets that I had luckily left my cigarettes in.I took one out of the packet and slipped it into the back of my jeans. I then grabbed my lighter and lit the cigarette, sighing in content.I was alone for a while, but then I footsteps and I looked to the side as the silver haired guy and Asian guy walked round the corner. There eyes landed on me and they seemed surprised to see me."First day and you're already skipping," the silver haired guy called and they walked up to me. "Are you going to walk off if we talk to you?""Not if the conversation is interesting," I shrugged."Why are you here?" The guy asked."Bored," I sighed and I pushed myself off the wall, but I didn't get far. The guy grabbed my shoulder and pushed me back. "Jesus, what's your p

UNKNOWN"Dad," the guy said as he walked into his fathers office. "I've found her."The man sat up in his chair and looked at his son. "Are you sure?""Positive. She's the one who killed the agent.""Good work, bring her in to be questioned and then we'll arrest her and send her to prison," the man said sharply."Dad, have you seen a picture of her?" The guy asked and walked up to his fathers desk."No, just bring her in," the man snapped.The guy took the picture of the girl and slid it across her desk. "Her name is Daisy Kellerman, and I think you should take a look," the guy said and the man sighed, picking up the crumpled picture. His expression darkened and he stiffened."Bring her in," the man said immediately. "I don't care how and find out everything you can about her.""So I assume I wasn't making a random guess about who she is," the guy said and the man took a deep breath."Bring her in. I don't care how you do it. We'll have answers then.""So, how did today go?" Blake ask

One hour:Nothing had happened.Two hours:Still nothing.Three hours:I was getting pissed off.Four-The door swung open and I looked up, crossing my arms over my chest. "Nice of you to pop in," I said and narrowed my eyes at the man who walked in. He was around 40 with light blonde hair that was cropped neatly. He had piercing blue eyes and was wearing dark jeans and a white button up shirt.Somehow, he pulled it off, managing to look relatively cool, but also quite scary.I stood up and leant back against the mirror as Jasper entered the room and shut the door behind him.The man looked at me. He stood still. Stiff. But his blue eyes looked me over, darting from side to side. "Sit, Daisy," he said and walked over to the table in the middle of the room. He took a seat and looked up at me."I'm good here," I said and eyed him and Jasper cautiously."I'm sorry about the way we had to get you here-""Are you?" I challenge and the man narrowed his eyes at me, not happy about being inte
