Light In His Darkness

Mia Martinez

"So"I reply rolling my eyes "Luna you've been my dearest friend forever now and you should know now I don't want none of them that won't let me do what I want to do"

"So still no one"she asked looking painfully bored at my life 

"Well you see" I started "Noway" she squealed getting all excited "tell me".

"There was this guy the other night he basically got me out of that raid, I haven't stopped thinking about who he was he had a mask on but his voice, hell even the way he grabbed my arm trying to get me to come with me sent electricity up my body, I've never got like that before"

"Well thats definitely something new with you, you sure you don't have a temperature or were drugged that night or even now" she said smiling "But luna that's not the part that's strange" I said looking at her "he knew that I was gone"

"How, no one knew except your family and I" I nodded my head agreeing. I heard the room inside begin to fill up "come on we better head back in and get these men" I said jokingly I wrapped my arm in hers starting to walk back in

"Mia"Grayson called walking towards me, I could feel Luna's arm slip away

"Girls it's time" he said,asking for my hand to lead me into the ball ,where all the youngest of the families danced. Luna had gone on with her brother,the girls lined one side and the boy on the other

The minute we were seen, the orchestra,they start to play Stay with me

(Play song)

I let my hand lose from my brothers grip, we separated,while I could see in the corner of my eye someones gaze was on me

I lined up beside luna...I placed my hand on the bottom while hers where on the top we were at the start of the line the men had started coming up asking for dances, but there was one that I wanted,but he wasn't here, not that I knew of

I kept denying a few and then one man that I remember briefly as a child going to my dads meetings I would play with him out in the garden came up, he always was handsome, he had dirty blonde hair that had small curls while the sides of his head had a skin fade, he had the bluest of eyes. He was always kind "Nice to see you Mia" He nodded "And you,Nick" I said while he picked up my hand and gave it a peck. "So Mia,will you do me the honor of giving me this dance"he said making me smile at him being all posh

I simply nodded,he caught my hand and led me into the middle of the floor,my hands wrapped around his neck,and his around my waist pushing us closer together

I could see my brothers past his neck smiling watching me. I couldn't help but think back to what Grayson had said 'What ever you do Mia,be looking out for a man that can protect you and won't hurt you.For your future'

"You know,your more beautiful now than as a child"He said breathing into my neck "Really"I replied "Are you sure though your only admitting that now because your sorry about fighting with me when you always knew I was faster than you, and better at fighting and everything" I smirked

"Ye well you caught me there" he smiled into my neck "i never thought you could get better looking but you have proved me wrong, is it working yet"I shook my head laughing. I looked up at Nick and smiled I saw a spark in his eyes, but it didn't make me intrigued compared to him

Fuck Mia, why are you still thinking about him

I leaned up and gave him a peck on the cheek,returning down to look at him.He looked shocked "Sorry..i forgot you probably have a girlfrien.." I was cut short when his soft lips crashed into mine. After a few moments we broke apart his smile lit up "lucky for you I don't" . He bent down,place a kiss on my neck and we broke away at the songs finish,bowed and just as I was going to go back to him. Luna came running "Luna what's wrong"I asked she looked worried. She swallowed,before leaning down and whispered "He's here"

"Who"I gazed around the room  "The head Mafia leader, he came all the way from Italy "she muttered as quietly "they never come here"

Soon enough the doors swung open and two figures showed a woman that was a little bit older than my mother and that's when the second figure stood into the light, there he was, I knew them green eyes.
