It was Friday Already and Ale was coming on Monday, these whole two weeks were a hell for me, I was missing Ale badly, I really wanted to hug him so bad.
Amelia wanted us to have a girls night out, at first I was reluctant, but when she begged me, I gave in. Now I was standing in front of my mirror, with skinny jeans and an off shoulder red crop top, that Amelia took out for me, when I straight told her that I am not gonna wear a dress.
she did my makeup, which included, foundation, mascara, and red lipstick with highlighter popping out. she looked at me once she was done.
'dang Val, you look hot. I am sure boys will fall for you on the first glance.' she admired her work, expressing her thoughts dreamily. I gave her a disapproving look.
'Lia you know I have a boyfriend! I don't need anyone else falling for me, and anyway we're just going to a restaurant.' I stated.
'yeah whatever. let's go.' she took her purse and we both made our way outside to the awaiting taxi, that Lia called.
i had a gut feeling, telling me to back out, but the way Lia was excited and thrilled, I thought otherwise.
when we reached, I got down only to have a mini heart attack.
We were at a club, A freaking club! If Ale gets to know, he'll surely shoot me!
'relax Val. You look as if you're gonna piss your pants.' I glared at her, Who after paying the fare, came beside me.
'loose up a little! your sweet boyfriend ain't gonna know!' she assured.
It was chilly outside, so we entered into the club, with Lia showing her charms to the guard outside.
inside it was warm, but not cozy. people were dancing, more like sticking to each other.
I could see many boys eyeing us from afar, the way I was dressed, It was expected. Amelia dragged us to the bar, and we both took the stools, placed in front of it.
she said something in the bartender's ear, who looked not more than 20. she moved back and sat on the chair, with a wink to the boy, who gave her a mischievous grin.
after a while the bartender named Jason, brought a tray full of shots. Lia cheered and took shot, and gulped it down in one go.
Lia passed me a shot, encouraging me to drink it. 'come on Val, you can do this! come on.' I gave her an uncertain look, but gulped the shot down, as she guided me. the whole liquid burnt my throat like hell.
the liquid made me tipsy. but it felt good, too good. as if I was free. but free from what?. being a first timer was a drawback. hell I should've tried this long before.
I was on my third shot, when my phone started ringing. Ale was calling me! s**t!
before I could pick it up, Amelia snatched it away, and without a care in the world, powered it off. hell! Ale was going to get worried.
I let my anticipation drown with me drinking my fourth shot.
Half an hour later, It was my seventh shot, when I had a sudden urge to pee. excusing myself, I made my to the bathroom.
after I was done, I was washing my hands, when a man in his early twenties stepped in. he looked scary, with tattoos all over his arms. he gave me the very bad vibes. He glanced around then locked the already closed door. that was the time when alarm bells started ringing in my head.
'umm this is ladies toilet.." I trailed off as he stepped closer, with a wicked grin plastered on his face. I couldn't scream! I was so in shock.
'I looked for you everywhere, but whenever I saw you, that bastard boyfriend of yours was always around you like a puppy.' he menaced trapping me between the basin and him, putting his hands on either side of me.
'wh—who are you?' I asked petrified.
'you really don't know who your boyfriend is? right?' he countered.
I looked at him confused. unable to pin point what exactly he was trying to do.
'can you please move ba-back?' I requested. he was close. a little too close, much to my horror.
'your boyfriend is the future mafia leader of Italy, you were not aware of it?' he asked in disbelief.
my breathe got stuck in my throat. a mafia leader? no way!
'stop lying and back off already.' I pushed him hard.
he looked at me dead in the eye, and grabbed me with my arms and slammed me hard on the wall next to the basin. I growled in immense pain.
he placed his lips on my bare shoulders, kissing me hungrily. I started thrashing around and started screaming for help, but soon my voice died down when he placed his palm over my mouth.
'scream all you want b***h! no one's gonna stop me from f*****g you.' he said with a sinister smile.
while I was thrashing in his arms, he tore my top from the shoulder, revealing my bra.
before he could touch me further, he was yanked off of me by someone. I immediately slid down the wall, sobbing, covering my body. I looked up to find Ale standing there with a pistol in his hand, aiming it at the man who was assaulting me not moments before with Enzo pinning him down. he looked deathly. he looked dark! all menacious.
future mafia leader
I heard a shot being fired and at the same time someone screaming. after a while, I realized it was me, who was screaming.
I saw with my teary eyes, Ale coming towards me, putting the pistol under his shirt. looking as cold and deathly as before. he took off his jacket, and made me wear it. I couldn't feel any warmth or softness when he touched me. he looked furious and distant.
He made me stand up, and carried me, to the door, before we went out, I saw that man lying lifeless on the floor, blood oozing out of his forehead.
He took me to his car and placed me on passenger seat, all the while, I was sobbing.
I don't know why I was crying? was I crying because I was harassed? was I crying because that man was shot? or because Ale shot him? or maybe because Ale was a leader? because he lied to me? he only played with my feelings, portraying himself as a good boy? or because my whole first relationship was a f*****g lie?
He fastened my seatbelt and shut the door, coming to his side he sat in, started the car and we drove off.
I was all out of energy, but I had no trust in him now. maybe he was going to take me somewhere isolated then murder me?
'where are you taking me?' I asked with all the energy I had left.
'shut up Valenie.'
'where in th—." I was cut off by his voice booming in the car.
'Shut up Valenie, or I will do it for you.' he threatened in a very deadly voice.
'stop the car Ale, I am not going anywhere with you.' I uttered out with anger.
'I said shut up! before I loose my s**t and do worse with you.' he menaced, looking me dead in the eye.
'I won't shut up, drop me at my house or leave me right here, I'll go from here myself. because I don't trust someone who lies.' I yelled, though I was trembling, but I was no insane to go with a murderer.
I guess that ticked him off, because he quickly parked the car on the side of the road and stepped out, making my way towards him.
he was completely different person, from whom I fell in love with!
