Alessandros POV;

The moment I saw her walk into the room I froze.

It really is her! I thought after not seen her for some days I'd be back to normal. It seems I thought wrong!

Seen her after a few days she seemed even more gorgeous than before, or is my eyes playing tricks?

This time I could see her at a closer distance allowing me to finally fully decipher her features.

Lovely blue gray eyes shining with light, pouty pink lips and a cute button nose.

Ok, maybe I have a crush on her? But, seriously, why would I like the cute innocent type?

I think I heard her say something to me, but I was a bit lost, just staring at her.

Guess I was making her a bit uncomfortable.

I finally decided to leave the room. That way maybe she wouldn't be as uncomfortable as she seems to be now!

_________________________________________

Am I seriously doing this?

That was only a passing thought as I sat in the CCTV control room.

2 minutes earlier, I had kicked everyone in this room out before staying here to spy on the ladies!

I'm really becoming a stalker.

I saw my mom and Drea go to change with their dresses in hand, while Alexis sat down and observed the room a but.

Her gaze lingered a bit on the couch I had sat on. My ego boosted a bit as I smirked at that.

"Alessandro!?" I almost fell down the chair in surprise as my dad loudly screamed my name while entering the room.

Seeing the way dad was staring at me, I knew I probably looked like a thief trying to escape.

Well this is embarrassing. I hurriedly acted like nothing just happened while facing dad. "Dad, what's the matter?"

"Before we discuss why I was looking for you, shall we discuss what your doing here? Hmm, what's this, were you spying on Dreas friend?"

Dad sat next to me while waiting for an answer.

"Something like that really." After thinking for a second, I decided dad was the only person I can talk to about something like this.

So let's just get on with it!

"Dad, the thing is...I met this girl before today."

"And..??"

"Well, she didn't really see me. I saw her from a slight distance too. But ever since then, she's been occupying my mind almost all the time. I can't help but think about her. I think I may have a crush on her?"

I guess I wasn't very sure about it myself. I stared at dad as he seemed to be thinking deeply.

"It's probably more than just a crush if you ask me."

I widened my eyes at dads statement. Is it really...could it be?

"Maybe you should give it a try and pursue her. But make sure she isn't a threat to the mafia!"

"I will." Guess I'm not telling dad about the fact that even my best men can't find everything about her.

I looked back at the computer screen. It seems she's going to leave. I was suddenly at a loss at that. But I cheered up again as it looked like mom was making her stay, probably for the night, knowing mom!

"Now back to business. I heard there was someone new in the American mafia, who was the reason we lost the red ruby."

I narrowed my eyes and frowned as I stared back at dad. "Hmm. There is a little rat I have yet to find out more about."
