He’s a beast, I’m his beauty - Chapter 10
When we arrived at the diner he got out of the car and went straight in never uttering a word to me, I got out of the car and rushed in to catch up to him. I found him sitting at a table with a few other people. He was leaned over and whispering in a girl’s ear that sat next to him, as I approached the table the girl started laughing and then looked at me with a grin across her ugly face. He then straightened up and looked at me. I had half a mind to slap the fuck out of him and go outside to wait for an Uber. I can’t believe he brought me here to try and embarrass me in front of his friends I guess, well mama didn’t raise no fool. I never even sat down, I turned around and was heading for the door when you hear him leap from the table and grab me by the waist and carry me back to the table. I didn’t even put up a fight because what would be the point, he’d catch me every time. I heard cheering and laughing from the table as he returned, he finally set me down on my feet. “What wrong?” He says pulling me into him and not giving me any space to try and run away again. “Who was that?” I asked, almost pouting. “Oh, you’re jealous. I like that.” He says grinning as if he won a special prize, “No ass, not jealous. Just don’t feel like being somewhere with your girlfriend in the room.” I had to admit I was sounding a bit jealous, but he’d never get the pleasure of me admitting it. “Not a girlfriend, just a friend that happens to think my brother the one she’s here with has a small dick too.” He says kissing my forehead and then taking a seat. “Welcome to the table of Idiots, you’re probably gonna run away again.” The big one shouts from the other end of the table before letting out this loud hearty laugh. I take a seat next to Danny and realize all of these guys look alike, they all have emerald green eyes and a wicked smile. All of them are tall and stocky, none of them miss any meals. And I’ve seen all of them before, that’s right the other night at the club. Why would he introduce me to his family? We just met.
“Are you ok? You’ve been acting weird all day since the Kelly thing” I say peeking over at him.
“Yeah, I’m cool,” He says still not looking at me, which makes me think something is wrong.
“What happened with you and Kelly for real?” I ask, still looking at him
“Look Kelly and I had a good thing for a few months, then she found out something about my family that wasn’t really public records. When I went to break up with her she wanted to use that information to try to make me stay with her. It got really weird, really fast. She hates me because I still broke up with her. I didn’t mean to hurt her but our relationship had to end.” He never looked at me, still staring across the water. His face still hardened, eyes still dark and mysterious.
“Well, that’s no reason to get all upset. Shit happens, speaking of shit why the fuck is your eyes almost black? Is this a magic trick?” I said running my hand under his chin and turning his head towards me so I can finally look at him. But when I did this his eyes were normal, back to the beautiful green jewels.
“Nothing crazy. Let’s go, I’m done with being all weird.” He then gets up and lifts me up to follow him. He holds my hand all the way to the car and I feel little shocks of electricity going up my arm, I don’t know why but I feel like we’re meant to be. The drive home is quiet but he holds my hand the entire time. He’s such the gentleman, he walked me to my door and kissed my forehead before heading off. Tomorrow is Monday and I am so not ready for this shit.
