1871 Words
" so who's the lucky lady" Ryan asked cockily as we left the florist " they're for Mollie for her birthday" he looked at me with a cheeky grin, the kind that said "yeah right". " will you be able to take care of buissness tonight I've got somethings to do" I asked him, "yeah sure some things or someone?" he replied. The last time I checked I didn't have to explain myself to him or where I was going "just because your my bestfriend and second hand man it doesn't mean I won't kick your ass, I don't explain myself to you or anyone else" I snapped. " sorry man I was only messing around". Back at the club I bumped into Marcus just the man I wanted to see " Hey man thanks you for your help last night with the situation with my sister I'm really sorry it ended up blowing up here it won't happen again" "come up to the office let's talk", as we walked to the office Marc followed two yards behind I could smell the fear coming off him it was that smell that gave me an adrenaline that made me want to do what I do, that turned me into the bastard I am today, I don't know why I'm like it I guess growing up with an ass for a father played a part in it. I opened the door and went straight to the mini bar I had, I pulled out the finest bottle of whiskey I had and poured us both a glass, here I said handing it to him he looked at it like it was going to explode at any minuet after he saw me take a sip of mine he finally did. " so how come you didn't tell me about the situation with your sister" I asked intentive, " to be honest man I didn't know much about it till it was to late her and my mum hiding alot of it from me because they knew what I would do they knew I'd go to jail for the guy, and nothing has ever made me feel shittier knowing your sister went through the s**t mine went through and I didn't even stop it or do anything about it man, it not something I'm proud of im supposed to be the big brother I'm supposed to be the one who took responsibility for them after my dad passed away, it was me and I let something like that happen to her I let her go through that, I didn't think my family issues where your issues I wasn't trying to hide it from you I was just trying not to burden you" the man in front of me was a broken one trying to hide it, I know because I've been there myself, " your one of my men Marcus, any burden to you is a burden to me, i might get you to do some f****d up s**t but i will always look out for my men if ever they have any problems you made it look like my men cant trust me! but off the record i dont blame you for keeping it to yourself just know you didn't let her down you can't solve something you knew nothing about, if ever there's anything like this again you tell me do you understand?" Marcus lowered his head "yes boss can I do anything to make it right" that's when a light bulb in my head clicked " yeah there is something actually I want to get to know you and the family more your sister mentioned she was having a meal tonight for her birthday?" I knew it was a big enough hint I wasn't going to ask to be invited any where. " dude if there's anything that will make up for it it will be my mummas cooking consider this your invite it starts at 7 thank you for understanding man" " it's OK you can go now ill be here at 6 to pick you up so we can make it in time" I picked the most expensive bottle of champagne we have from the cellar and a bottle of jack seen as I knew it was her favourite drink, thinking of her face when she received my flowers I know she got them because she signed did she like them? did she hate them? what if she was allergic to them? Allergic to them Lucian what are you on about I said to myself in my head, I've never been this bothered about a women before I've never let anyone get under my skin so much, why couldn't I get her off my mind! 7 soon came and we were walking into Marcus and Mollies home, "Lucian this is my mother Susan everyone calls her susie though" I looked at the lady shook her hand and gave her a kiss on the cheek it was so uncanny the resemblance her and Marcus had I could see some of Mollie in her two but not alot. "Mrs King it's lovely to meet you thank you for welcoming me into your home for such a lovely occasion" she smiled at me " it's okay dear any friend of My Marcus is a friend of mine and please call Mr susie no need for such formality, please take a seat dinner shouldn't be long were just waiting on the birthday girl she should be here any minuet here let me take those bottles off you" I took a seat next to Marcus as we held usual chit chat with his mum, how I know Marcus, where I worked, how I became a boss and owner of so many company's at such a young age, luckily I had all the answers ready from the many times I have to use them with cops or legitimate business associates she hounded me with questions like i was sat in a police interview "so are you single then?". "that's enough of the questions now mum, sit down man can I get you a drink" he said pointing through the open space gap of the kitchen to the dinning room. " sure I'll have a jack please no coke" I said walking in to take my seat. I was checking my phone when the sound of Susan made me look up " Marcus would you stop it the paella will be ready soon" soon followed the voice of a little girls "auntie suu!!! marcusss" in ran a child she could of been no older than 4. Marcus soon spoke up "Lucian is joining us for dinner before we go to work you don't mind do you sis Happy birthday by the way sorry I wasn't awake this morning" as he hugged her I couldn't help but feel jelous. Jelous that he could and I couldn't not in front of Marcus not yet. "its fine I understand you were up late, and no why would I mind I suppose I owe him a thank you for last night anyway I'm just going to get changed ill be back in a minuet" she spoke and left the room. I waited for a few minuet because I didn't want to make it obvious, " can I use your bathroom please?" I asked susie, "of course you can up stairs first door on your left if you can tell Moll to hurry up dinners ready" she answered and I went up the stairs to find her. the first door I opened wasn't Mollies I could tell by the midnight blue on the walls this was definitely marcus' room I could find out some information about him while I was here but I didn't have the time to snoop around I went to the next opened the door slightly and as luck would have it it was hers I saw her in the mirror brushing her hair when she heard me and shot " what are you doing in here and why did you just walk in like you owned the place?" her authority made me laugh and the frown lines on her head were the cutest thing I'd ever seen. " Princess I can do what I want" I said closing the gap between us. It was like I was being drawn to her. she looked at me like I had shocked her to the core but she soon worked up the fire to say "well I want you to get out" but I knew she didn't it was the last thing she wanted. I took a step closer placing my hands in my pocket "is that what you want though? because I don't think it is? Here I said passed her her phone, I sae you got your flowers" I needed to throw it in there I wasn't looking for complements I just needed to know that she didn't hate them after all they probably wouldn't be the first bunch she'll get, " I did thank you and you didn't have to you could of given it to marcus" god this women. "I could of yeah but wheres the fun in that? so are you having a nice birthday?" she raised an eyebrow " you mean besides the hangover and working? yeah I suppose its not something I usually celebrate I dint enjoy my birthday" when she said it she put her head down like she was upset about it, " ah well maybe we could change that" I said closing the gap between us until I was stud behind her wrapping my arms around her waist, I laid a soft kiss on her neck got if I stayed like this I was going to get hard but then I noticed her face change, "what's up?" I asked "Nothing I'm just hungry come on let's go eat" she said releasing herself snd walking towards the door but I could let her go yet, " what are you doing after the meal?" I asked "Nothing I'll probably just walk Ava and Mila home then come home and go to sleep im at work I'm the shop early tommorow" was she trying to fob me off? " well whens your next day off?" "Tuesday why?" she said " well come to dinner with me then on tuesday" "what like a date? " she questioned " yes like a date mol" I said and a smile appeared on her face what was that about. " hmm I'll have to think about it" she said then she left the room with me following like a lost f*****g puppy. We all sat down for the meal, susie sat at the head of the table with marcus and Mollie sat at either side of her I sat next to Marc and ava nd Mila sat next to Mollie we sat and ate with normal conversation flowing untill the topic changed "Mollie you know your dad wouldn't want you waisting your life in that shop with me, it's time you go back to college finish your buissness degree and go to university that's what he would of wanted"
