I Want You

"My dad was furious when I told him you were coming over today." Amelia spoke.

She and Vinny were laying out on pool floats, floating side by side across the water. Vinny wore black swimming trunks decorated with lemons. Amelia wore a baby blue swimsuit. It was definitely one of her more modest swimsuits, but she didn't want to give her dad an excuse to cause a scene with Vinny here.

"Oh I know that, he cornered me before I came out here. He gave me quite the grilling on making sure I don't step over the line when it comes to you." Vinny looked over to a floating Amelia to see her grimacing at her dads warnings.

"Sorry Vin, I did tell him we're just friends." Amelia explained.

"I know you did, I just find it funny that he's worrying about me when Santiago is living right under his nose."

Amelia's face flushed red as Vinny spoke. She knew she wasn't the most discrete when it came to her attraction to Santiago, but hearing Vinny mention it aloud was kind of embarrassing.

"Let's not go down that route Vin, let's talk about you. You're a sexy, heavily tattooed Italian man, why don't you have a girlfriend?" Amelia took off her sunglasses to take a good look at Vinny when he started laughing.

"What's so funny? Come on you can tell me, what's your type Vin?" Amelia was genuinely intrigued in Vinny's love life, he looked like the typical playboy but doesn't seem to act like one.

"Well, I prefer brunettes over blondes. I like someone who can make me laugh but also put me in my place if it's needed."

Amelia nodded along, trying to think if she could think of anyone who she could match Vinny with. "Anything else?" She asked.

"Hmmm, I also like someone with a squeezable ass and a big fat cock to go with it."

Vinny burst out laughing as Amelia's eyes widened twice their size. She sat there mouth open for a moment before she screamed.

"I knew it! I bloody knew it Vin. Why didn't you tell me sooner?" She asked, throwing her sunglasses in his direction.

"You never asked before. Now you've asked I'm spilling the beans. I like cock babes, I'm actually a little jealous you got to Santiago before I could."

Amelia sat on her pool float with her mouth still hanging open shaking her head in disbelief. "This explains a lot of things."

"Hmm I bet it does, were you expecting me to fall in love with you Amelia?"

"No. Well yes, I mean you never even tried to flirt with me, that was enough for me to suspect this."

"Like I said before, you ain't my type girl." Vinny snapped his fingers, popping his neck dramatically at Amelia. While they were laughing she attacked him, dunking him under the water.

Both of them came to the surface, Amelia decided to give her friend a hug, happy that he felt comfortable enough to share that part of him with her.

What was a nice moment between friends wasn't being perceived that way by the onlookers.

Both Santiago and Noah were watching the two from Noah's office window. Both men stood with a grim look on their faces as Vinny and Amelia played in the pool.

"I can't believe I've agreed to this." Noah said dragging himself away from the window and into his seat.

Santiago stood stuck in his spot, watching the two with a stormy look in his eyes. Once again Vinny had his hands all over Amelia, right under the bosses nose. Santiago was sure doing something like that would result in their death.

"I'm surprised you let him play around with her like that." Santiago said from his spot. He watched as Amelia's head shot back in laughter, once again finding something Vinny said extremely funny.

"Don't, I'm weak when it comes to the women in my life Santiago. Don't let anyone know I said that though."

Santiago nodded at his boss, continuing to watch as Amelia and Vinny interacted so freely. He could feel himself getting angrier by the minute. He needed to workout to blow off some steam.

"Vinny's lucky Amelia convinced me they're just friends else he'd be dead." Santiago jumped slightly as Noah was directly besides him again.

"Friends I can deal with, but believe me, if it were anything more I'd fucking kill him." Santiago dragged his eyes away from the two outside once he heard the seriousness of Noah's voice. Looking to his boss he saw a threatening look in his eye.

"That's my little girl out there, I won't stand for anyone taking advantage of her. No boyfriend, no stalker, no bodyguard." Noah held Santiagos gaze for a lasting moment before giving him a curt smile, walking back to his seat.

Santiago was sure that was a warning, a threat even and it was directed at him.

He always knew getting involved with Amelia was a dangerous game, for multiple reasons.

With Noah's warning fresh in his mind, the only thing Santiago could think of was dragging Amelia away from Vinny and showing her who she really belonged to.
