In Love With A Gangster

PARTY AT THE MANSION

“No problem, I understand that you are very hungry.” He said with a toothy smile.

“But I am still sorry.” She apologized.

“It’s alright, I am not offended,” he muttered, and they both heard the sound of the doorbell.

“Could that be Red?” He asked, raising a brow.

“I don’t think it’s Red. Let me check,” she stated, adjusted her dress, she walked towards the door and grabbed the doorknob and opened it, and a guy tried to push his way in. She pushed him outside and locked the door quickly.

“Babe, who is that?” Melvin inquired.

“It’s a friend of mine, I will be back in a sec,” she replied with sweat forming on her forehead. She slowly opened the door and ran outside.

“Troy, what are you doing here? Why didn’t you tell me you were coming?” she asked with her trembling lips.

“I wanted to give you a surprise visit. Why did you push me out like that? Are you hiding something?” he inquired.

“No-no, I am not hiding anything,” she stutters nervously, sweating continuously as she grips her dress with her hand.

“So let’s go inside.” He said, trying to walk to the door.

“No! she yelled, putting her hand in the entrance of the house.

“Why?” he inquired with raised eyebrows.

“My mum is inside.” She mumbled.

“Then that's good. It will be good to see her now,” he insisted.

“Troy no, my mum doesn’t know about you, she is strict. I don’t want her to ground me for a lifetime.” She muttered with her eyebrows lowered and pulled together.

“Okay then, go grab your bag, I want to take you out now.” He said.

“No, I can’t go out now tomorrow.” She said in a sweet tone.

“I won’t take no for an answer.” He insisted, trying to grab her hand.

“Why are you so stubborn? You know I love you babe, please don’t let my mum scold me.” She pleaded with pouted lips. He sighed and looked into her eyes.

“Okay, bye i am going.” He muttered and cupped her cheek and gave her a light kiss on the lips.

“Bye, my love.” She said, grinning as she watched him go.

She walked back into the house and closed the door.

“That was close!” she muttered underneath her breath, wiping her sweat with the back of her palm. And Melvin gazed at her.

“Babe, what took you so long?” he inquired.

“My friend wanted to take something from me.” She beamed, smiling from ear to ear.

“Okay, come here, baby.” He said and she ran to him and crashed into his arms. He wrapped his hand around her waist and started kissing her deep and slowly. He pulled back, slowly catching his breath, and she grabbed his shirt and pulled him closer to her chest, and kissed him back.

Minutes later

Melvin kissed her goodbye and strolled out of the house. She ambled to her room.

Red’s POV

I took my bath and put on a blue sleeveless gown, I wore makeup, and put red lipstick on my lips, rubbing my lips together to spread the lip stick used a brush to comb my hair backwards and used a rubber band to pack it stylishly. I wonder how parties are in this mansion, I put on my heels and gaited out of the room.

I walked into the living room, which was filled with a lot of guys and ladies wearing bikinis, the girls were literally naked, the place reeked of alcohol and cigarettes. They were all dancing to the loud hip-hop music and the disco lights were blinding my eyes. I battered my lashes.

“What's up beautiful,” a guy said, putting his hands around my waist, he was wearing a black jacket, with his hair tinted blue.

I held his hand and took it away from my waist quickly.

“No touching,” I said, walking towards a waiter who was carrying drinks around the corner.

“Come on beauty, stop being like this.” He said, grabbing my hands. I didn’t know when I clenched my fists and hit him hard on the face, my hand penetrated his nose and he shuddered and fell on the floor on his backside with a great thud, grabbing everyone’s attention.

“Why did you hit him?” Steve inquired with his eyebrows slightly raised.

“He was being a jerk,” I stated, gnashing my teeth.

“If you don’t want to dance with anyone, just go back into your room,” he stated in a cold tone.

“I want to dance, but not with anyone. I just want to enjoy the party like everyone else,” I muttered.

Suddenly, Lion walked into the living room. He was wearing a black leather jacket, and diamond earrings sparkling in his ear, he walked onto the dance floor with his head up high, he wasn’t smiling, he snapped his fingers and the DJ started playing cool music. His eyes drifted. He and a smile curved on his face; I looked away quickly. I grab an orange juice from the tray of a waiter and sit on a chair sipping my orange juice.

All the girls gathered around him, dancing with him, he was romancing every one of them. His hands were everywhere, their hips, their belly button and all, I got jealous and walked to the balcony. And Steve join me.

“Why are you here?” He asked.

“I couldn’t watch those naked girls dancing,” I whined.

“Are you being holy or what? Anyway, let’s dance.” He offered

“ I am not a good dancer,” I protested.

“That’s not a problem, let go. I will teach you,” he assured, taking my hand to the spotlight.

He flipped me and grabbed my waist hard, and I put my hands on his shoulder. We started dancing and he started teaching me how to dance, step by step.

“Let me admit, I am loving this,” I whispered in his ear and he smiled and twirled me.

Then Lion walked towards us.

“May I take it from here,” he asked, staring at me, and Steve let go of me and walked away.

“I don’t know how to dance, Steve was teaching me how to dance just now,” I mumbled, biting my lower lip.
