Mafia In Disguise

CHAPTER 17

*AVA MARTIN*

I wish I was born as a bird.....no stress, no worries, no Devin Miller in your life.......

"Can I enter?"

I turned my head 90° to see Rossi peeking inside the room with just his head in all the rest body out.

"Oh yeah! Sure."

He looked left and right before entering the room. It seemed as if he was trespassing a line he wasn't supposed to.

"Hey....."
He said awkwardly while adjusting himself on the bed.

I stood beside the window playing with the edge of the red velvet smooth curtain.

"How are you feeling?"
He said fixing his eyes on me.

"I'm..... I'm better than before."
I said sighing, while looking at him.

He stood up and took a few steps until he stood right Infront of me.

"No... I mean about tomorrow."

"It's not like I can do anything about it."

"How about we run away.... Like they do in a movie."

He took a quick glance at him and saw him smiling. My heart went unstable Skipping a beat while I saw him smiling.
Am I falling for him? No no no, I guess it's just been a while since I saw someone smile, that's why.... Yes that's why!

I giggled a bit to his response. It felt as if I smiled after a 100 years. No, it would be correct to say it felt as if I smiled after a million years. It felt nice..... It felt relaxing.......

"Stop it Rossi."
I said still chuckling softly.

"It looks like we can be good friends."

"Devin will end you if he hears what you just said."

"He will not."

"How are you so sure?"

"Let me tell you a secret..... Devin and I are friends since college so maybe he will not 'end me'."

He said emphasizing on the last two words.

"Then maybe we can be good friends?"

I said looking at him with innocent, harmless eyes.

"You already lost your chance."
He said smirking while teasing me.

"Come on Rossi, I need friend ."
I said friendly forcing.

"Since you insist so much I will accept your request."

"Thank you so much, your majesty."
I said laughing while bowing.

"But I have a genuine question."

"What?"

"If you guys are really friends why does he treat you like an employee, why not like a friend?"

"Maybe he doesn't want anyone to know."

"Why?"

"You do have a lot of questions, huh?"

"Oh, I'm sorry... Did that make you uncomfortable?"

"Oh no no no no! Not at all."

"Then why?"

"I don't know..... That's something he always kept to himself."

"Interesting. He has a lot of stuff on his plate."

"What?"
He said, questioning my response.

"What I meant was he has a lot of secrets."

"He sure does have a lot of secrets."

"So.... How about we become more than friends?"
He said teasing me.

"You're late honey."
I said smirking looking deep into his light brown eyes.

"I sure am."
He said lightly laughing.

As I took a step back, I accidentally disbalanced.

"Hey be careful!"
Rossi said quickly sliding his hand under waist, my hands on his well built clothed chest.

"Hey, are you okay?"

"Uh, yeah."

Suddenly I realized the situation we were in. His face only inches away from me.
He looked at my eyes, then my lips.
He suddenly leaned in filling up the space between us without giving me a red light.

Our lips moved in sync. His lips were chapped but warm. Their was no roughness in his moved.

I suddenly unattached my lips from his.

"Rossi, what are you doing?"
I said, a bit shook.

"I'm so sorry."
As he walked towards the door saying this, he was stopped by a serious face, Devin Miller......
