I never enjoyed being the centre of attention. I move a little behind Kaz so I don't dare too much attention to myself as we walk by people. 

"Sir! You need to come here right away," Another buff man runs up to Kaz with pleading eyes. 

Kaz gives my hand a tight squeeze before turning to me." Stay here. I'll be right back," 

He nods at these the tall guys in black suits with loaded huge guns in their hands. They've been following behind us the whole time and I didn't even notice. 

"Kaz...no," I beg, shaking my head and grabbing onto his arm.  

"I'll be right back, princess. You'll be fine," He lets go of my hand and I feel instantly feel in danger.  I watch as Kaz quickly disappears as he turns a sudden corner, leaving me alone and surrounded by a swarm of armed people. 

The tall security guards started talking to each other while other members just stared at me. 

Looking down at my shoes was and thinking it the most interesting thing in the world. It was probably one of the only ways  I could keep myself calm and miss making eye contact with people. 

"Woah there!" I look up, absolutely shit scared. "Hello." A really cute guy stared down at me with a huge grin on his face. 

"Uh, h-hey?" I stutter back, not knowing whether I should be talking to this random person. I look at the guards, who were still chatting away amongst themselves, completing forgetting about me. 

"What's a beautiful girl like you doing in the middle of a mafia building?" He comes closer to me as I stood still, not knowing where else to move too.  

"I-I don't know," I said dumbfounded. 

He chuckles and grabs my hand gently. "You shouldn't be here. It's a dangerous place." 

"I-I don't t-think it's a good idea for you to be anywhere n-near me," I warn him quietly. 

Someone taps his shoulder, making him roll his eyes.

My eyes widen as he moves out of the way to turn around. 

"BOSS! I-i mean. Boss," he stutters in fear. 

Kaz towers over the guy, gently pulling me behind him while glaring at the guy. "Do you know who the fuck she is?" 

The guy shakes his head quickly. "n-no sir," 

"Did he touch you, princess?" Kaz'asks me. I quickly shake my head, denying if the poor guy touched me.  

Kaz looks at the guy and I heard his knuckles crack as he tightens his fist into a ball. 

I move in between him and the poor guy before Kaz could beat the crap out of him.  "Kaz,  He was just trying to be friendly and say hey. I was in the middle of a building looking lost and so out of place." I explain, trying to calm Kaz down so the guy could keep his a cute face. 

Kaz's fist falls to his side and he stares at me blankly. 

I turn around to the guy. "This is your cue to leave,"

The guy, scared half to death, nods and walks away immediately, disappearing into the crowd.

"Guys!" 

Kaz and I look over to see Freddie waving at us like an idiot from an open elevator. 

I sigh and walk towards him with Kaz behind me. 

"Hey, Dee. Hey Kaz," Freddie walks into the empty elevator, moving his arm from the elevator doors so it could close.  I give him a wave and I smile, while Kaz copies my action like a little child.
