You check the clock in your pocket once more as you wait patiently with your blunderbuss in hand. The sweat on your brow evident as you wiped it.
Just as the body hits the floor in front of you, you scramble for the trigger before pulling it. With shaky breaths, you pull out the silver from the pouch on the back of the body.
This was your third loop and it still didn’t help the monotony of your everyday situation. Just as you pull the body away, two men in a red convertible pull up next to you.
One of the men is floating a coin in his hand, a TK as they were called.
“Nice trick, bet it works on women pretty well.”
“I dunno, you tell me. Is it working?” He cocks a smirk up at you.
“Yeah, I’d say so. Could I get a lift? I’m off to see the Gat Man.”
The man with the ponytail and floating coin motions to the back of the car. You hop in behind him, your fingers touching the hair pulled back at the back of his neck.
“So, you two boys loopers too? Tough business, ain’t it?”
“It’s fine once you get used to it. You’re new, right?”
“Mmhm, yeah I am.”
The man in front of you touches your hand behind his seat, his fingers stroke it softly.
“Just stick with us, kid. We’ll take care of you.”
The mystery men drive you to an unknown location. Inside is the boss that you share, a weaselly man with greasy gray hair.
He scanned the men before bringing them into the office, a few loud smacks later and they came out. The man with the ponytail was holding his hand, his shoulder and hand bloody.
“Alright, Seth. You’ll be fine.” His friend reassures him. They look up when they feel your presence.
“Everything okay?”
“No, Seth got beat up pretty bad. The Gat Man seems to have taken out some of his anger on him. He didn’t do shit and he still got hurt.”
“Joe, it’s fine. I’ll be alright. Just lemme go to a doc.”
“I could help you if you want. I can sew pretty well and I’ve done stitches before.”
“Thanks toots. We loopers have to stick together.” The man’s friend, who you now know to be Joe, pats your shoulder as he leads you both back to the convertible.
———————————————————
You turn on the lights in your apartment as you lead Seth through the door. With your guidance, he sits down on your couch as you bust out your first aid kit.
The cut on his shoulder looked much worse than the wound on his hand so you decided to start there. He slowly took off his shirt and jacket, setting them down next to you.
Your faces were mere centimeters apart as you began to sanitize and clean the wound before sewing it shut.
He winces each time the needle went through, you could tell this was the first time he’d ever gotten stitches.
You made quick work of the wound on his hand before handing him back his shirt.
“There, all done.”
He smiles as he touches the bandage on his shoulder.
“Thanks a lot, really. Thank you.”
He smiled up at you as he finally let his hair down from the ponytail that it was in. You couldn’t help but blush as you looked at the reddish-brown strands of hair. His green eyes bore into you as you bit your lip.
“So uh...what now? What do you wanna do?”
He shrugs. “Dunno, we could fuck?”
Your head snaps to him as he decides to tempt you further by lighting and floating a nearby candle. You mentally curse yourself for being so gullible as you saunter towards him, locking the door behind you.

As you bask in the afterglow of the mind blowing sex you just had, you can’t help but smile fondly at the man who befriended you so easily. You could tell that he only had Joe to depend on, and even then you wouldn’t count on Joe as being the helpful type.
Life as a Looper was a very dog eat dog world, and you were just starting to get the hang of it.
“So that’s what sex with a TK is like. That was really fucking mind blowing.”
You laugh as you run your thumb over his arm that was wrapped around your waist.
“Well thanks, glad you enjoyed it. I did too. Did you see when the candles were floating? I didn’t even know I could do that.”
He smirks as he stares at the ceiling, falling onto his back.
“Does this mean that you’re a part of my loop now? If I get to have sex everyday until my contract is over, that’d be pretty sick.”
“Yeah I think so. I’m pretty pumped for that, I want you in my life.”
He sends you a wanton gaze as you nod.
“I want you in my life too.”
You both were right, you end up in the same loop until both of your contracts are up and you kill your future selves. You end up happy and in love with the TK who was once just a friend.
