Carefully, he took out his cigarettes and tucked one into his mouth. "I'm gonna kill Priest," he said calmly as he struck a match to light the cigarette.

"What the FUCK?" she exclaimed, her jaw dropping. That came out of NOWHERE.

Monday breathed a short, humorless laugh. "You shouldn't have asked." He closed up the cigar box and pushed it away, sitting back in his chair. "It's not a sudden idea. He's had it coming for a while now."

She looked at him. "This whole time...you've been against him this whole time," piper repeated, letting it sink in. She dug her face into her hands. Now she had a headache.

"It's complicated," he said by way of explanation, then pushed out of the chair to put the box away. He put his back to her as he stood by the cabinet, smoking. Complicated wasn't exactly the word for it -- a big fuckin' mess, more like.

She watched him for a while, not saying anything.
"Let me help. Let me do something."

"Not a chance," he answered quickly, glancing over his shoulder at her and then turning back to the cabinet. "Take the money and leave town, Piper, while you still have time to do it."
If she stayed... if she helped. God, he'd probably be able to pull this off. But he wouldn't ask her to.

Piper, angry now, grabbed his arm and pulled him, hard, so he was facing her.
"I don't know what other broads you deal with Monday, but you sure as hell should know by now I ain't your typical one." she glared at him. "Let me fuck him up. He ruined my life."

He growled, growing angry too, and turned to push her up against the cabinets. Fucking women -- she was typical in one regard, at least. She wouldn't listen to a damn word he said.
"The only way you could help is as bait, Piper. When he's fucking you, he's alone, and he's off his guard." Monday glared down at her, furious. "Is that what you wanna do? You don't think that'll fuck your life up more?"

Piper's body began to shake with boiling rage- and fear- as she looked up at him. That had hurt, too.
And, as miserable as it was, she couldn't help the tears beginning to swell up inside her. She was in too much pain inside and out, and her emotions were all over the place.
"I'll do it. Then I'm fucking gone, alright?" she wiped a single tear that had managed to work its way down and forced herself out of his gasp. She didn't want him to see her like this. They could get any girl to do that, to fuck him and distract him. But of course that was all piper was good for.
She really was a whore.

When he saw the tear, he stepped back to let her move away. He hadn't meant to scare her -- at least, not in that way. But she had a chance to get out of Priest's grasp, when he didn't.
"No, Piper," he said as he moved back, putting his back to her again. "Just go. I'll find somebody else to do it."

She shook her head, her hand on the doorknob.
"No. I am a sure thing. He taught me all I know, it's about time it gets thrown in his face..." she said miserably, wanting to leave but also wanting desperately to stay.

"If you go in with me on this, you can't back out," he told her flatly. "We have to see it through to the end."
He really wished she would go -- he shouldn't trust her, and he certainly shouldn't worry about her. But he wanted her to stay. Why was that? Hopefully it was just a matter of her being fucking beautiful and extremely off-limits.

She got a hold of herself and turned to face him. "You have my word. I'm in." she still wanted out but that was before there was anyone against priest.
Now that Monday wanted to off him, that changed things.

Monday held his hand out to her to shake. This was business now, and they were partners. He could tell she didn't trust him, not that she had much reason to, but they were going to have to trust each other for this to work.
