ENJOY!

Briar Rose's POV:
sometimes i ask myself why i do certain things...
like the time i ate a spoonful of cinnamon
or the time i chose Ivan over Marcellus.
it wasn't like i had the choice, Marcellus never had time for relationships and i was too attached to him to be sane. so i chose to move on, which was another mistake.
its hurts to think of him with another girl, even though he's not mine and I'm dating another guy. i sound so selfish and jealous when i say that, but believe me, my heart aches so much i don't know how to react.
its like the other day when he mentioned iris being close to him, my mind immediately thought of her in his arms. all i could feel was envy in the pit of my stomach which caused me to say things like 'I've knows him since we were children' or 'are you dating him?'. if i could take it all back i would...
iris is a wonderful girl full of energy and compassion. i was sure of that the day she took both me and Aurelia upstairs and had a talk about how i felt. it made sure of how i felt towards Marcellus. and she promised to support me through it all, even though we only met.
what i couldn't do was leave Ivan. my attraction to him isn't like my attraction to Marcellus, its weaker. but i cant leave someone who claims they love me because i found someone else to replaced them. however, i used Ivan to replace Marcellus. proving how much of a greedy person i am.
fuck love. it makes me do crazy things. it takes all my sanity away. it makes my emotions intensify.
my train of thoughts was broken when my phone buzzed with a text.
Its time. meet us at the base.
it was Marcellus.
you see, i live with Ivan in an apartment we rented in Sicily near the Gambino estate because he claimed their were 'too many' men around me. i didn't want to cause an argument, so i agreed.
i grabbed my gun and backpack placing it on my back and ran outside to my car. i started the car and made my way towards the Gambino estate.
it begins now.

i reached the estate and saw the vehicles that will be taking us to Dante's first base set up and ready to move with everyone inside them. i parked my own car and heard Marcellus calling for me.
"Rose! get in!"
i ran up to the car he was in and jumped inside. to my surprise, he was the only one in the car besides the driver who was separated by a glass window.
"hey" i took the seat across from his since the seats were set up facing each other.
"are you ready?"
"yeah, are you?"
he smirked "your talking to Marcellus Gambino. i was born ready"
"if you say so" i laughed "so which group am i going with?"
"with me. your staying by my side the entire time, rose. understood?"
i nodded "aye aye captain celly" i put my hand up in salute
suddenly the car jolted to a start and i forgot to put my seat belt on, making me fly towards Marcellus and fall on top of him.
"I'm so sorry, i didn't mean to. you know the cars velocity and momentum with the acceleration it pushed me because of gravity and-"
