My Mission

Chapter 7

"Antonio!?" I say surprised. "Hey" he rubs the back of his neck. "Did you come to grab your jacket?" I ask, "Uh, no. I just wanted to see you" he runs a hand through his hair.

"Well come on in, I was making dinner. Have you eaten yet?" I ask and move out of the way so he can come in. "I haven't" he smiles and walks in. I close the door behind him and he takes his dress shoes off.

He removes his jacket and I grab it for him, "This one I'm taking home" he points to the jacket and I giggle at his comment.

I hang the jacket up in the closet and guide him towards the kitchen. "You have a lovely home" he says to me as his eyes look around. "Thank you" I say making my way over to the quesadillas.

I put only a few in the container and put them in the freezer. I put a few on two plates and place them on the table.

"You made these?" He asks and I nod.

He sits down at the head of the table as I sit down horizontally from him.

He picks up the fork and knife and starts cutting it which makes me chuckle a little. "Am I doing something wrong?" He asks placing the utensils down.

I nod and continue to laugh. "How about you show me the right way then" he adds and I calm down my laughter.

I pick up a quesadilla with my hands and take a bite. "Its as simple as that" I say after I finish chewing.

He picks a quesadilla up and does exactly as I did. "There you go" I smile and take another bite.

"Wait come with me" I say wiping my hands on the napkin. I stand up after he finishes wiping his hands and he stands up aswell.

I walk him down the hall and to a staircase that leads to the wine cellar. I open the caged door and his eyes widen.

"Do you like wine that much?" He chuckles. "I'm more of a whiskey girl but I do like my wine." I smile at him.

I look around the room and notice a safe that had the most expensive wine in it. Hmmm why not.

I enter the combination and it unlocks. I open it and there it is. A bottle of Screaming Eagle 1992. One of the most expensive wines in the world.

Dominico did say to only use this if needed, but since when do I listen. I grab the bottle and turn around to face Antonio. He see's the bottle and his eyes widen.

"Come on princess" I say as I make my way to the stairs. "Princess!?" He follows behind me. "Yup" I giggle.

We make it back to the kitchen and I open the bottle of wine and pour some in two wine glasses.

I leave the bottle on the counter and walk over to the kitchen table and hand him a glass. "Thank you" he smiles and takes a sip. "Its wonderful" he adds and I giggle.

I sit down in my seat and we finish eating our meal.

....

"Its getting late, I should head home." He says getting off the sofa. "If you insist, but if you want to, you can stay here for the night, or even in my guest house." I suggest and I could tell that he was torn between the idea.

"I don't want to be a burden." He states, "Your not a burden" I chuckle. "If you say so" he adds and I nod.

"Follow me" I say and he does.

I walk outside and head towards the guest house. I unlock the door and walk in with him behind me.

I show him around the place and he thanks me when I finish.

"I will leave my back door unlocked, if you need anything then feel free to wake me up in the middle of the night." I tell him and he nods. "I'll see you in the morning" I say goodbye and leave the guest house and head back to the main house.

One of his guards stopped me before I could open the door though.

"Get your hands off me!" I push him away. "Hold on a second" he rolls his eyes and I stand there with my arms crossed.

Someone speaks through his earpiece and he nods, allowing me to go into MY house.

"Puta" I roll my eyes and enter the house. (Bitch)

I take a deep breath and clean up the dishes from dinner. Ugh, what I would do for a damn maid right now.

My phone starts ringing and I rush to answer it.

"Hola?" I say thru the phone. "jefe, tenemos un problema, lo necesito en el primer vuelo de regreso a México lo antes posible." Pedro says thru the phone. (Boss, we have a problem, I need you on the first flight back to Mexico as soon as possible)

"Estoy en medio de una misión en este momento Pedro, ¿puede esperar?" I ask him. (I'm in the middle of a mission right now Pedro, can it wait?) "Realmente no puedo jefa, lo siento." He replies. (It really cant boss, I'm sorry) "regresare mañana" I sigh and hang up. (I'll be back tomorrow)

Ugh, I literally have to do everything myself!

I ring up Haden and he immediately answers. "¿Estás cerca?" I ask. (Are you nearby?) "Yeah, why? Do you need help right now!?" He starts panicking. "No, pero necesito que te asegures de que el avión esté listo mañana por la mañana. Regresaremos a casa por un tiempo, tengo problemas que arreglar." I tell him. (No, but I need you to make sure the jet is ready tomorrow morning. We're going back home for a little, I got issues to fix) "Hecho" he replies and I hang up. (Done)

Time to get some sleep before the flight.

....

I wake up and make my way downstairs to the kitchen.

I see a note on the counter and I start reading it. "Thank you for letting me stay in your guest house for the night. I appreciate it and I will buy you breakfast next time we see each other, as a token of my appreciation. I decided to leave my other coat with you, so we have a reason to see each other more often. I may have also left my number in the coat pocket. I made you some coffee and it should still be hot, enjoy your day. -Princess" I read out loud. I couldn't help but laugh at the princess part.

"Niños" I playfully roll my eyes. (Boys)

Haden walks thru the door and nods to me, letting me know that the jet is ready.

I smile as I re-read the note and then place it back on the counter. I grab the coffee that Antonio made and make my way to the front door. I open the closet door and grab Antonio's coat and then proceed to walk out of the house. Haden grabs something from the house and meets me at the car a few seconds later.

I get in the car and he gets in the front passenger seat.

"al aeropuerto privado" Haden says and the driver nods. (To the private airport)
