SEVS POV
My tray flies across the room, causing a loud crash. The whole room looks at us, and I freeze, knowing who is behind me. Russo walks around me, before taking a seat across from me on the table, a sickening smile on his face. I look down, unable to look into his evil eyes. "So uh... I heard you've been creeping on my boy, trying to talk to him and shit..." Russo starts of quietly, almost a whisper.
"Who?" I try to act dumb.
He stares at me blankly for a long time before letting out a loud laugh, all the attention in the room is still on us. I don't feel like this is going to end well... I groan inwardly. He motions someone with two fingers, and suddenly Keegan comes from behind me, Russo makes him sit on his lap. "Look familiar?" He questions, in a tauntingly way.
"Here's the deal, I am going to give you 1 strike. The second one and you're out." He whispers, a smile stretching across his face. "Good talk." He pats my shoulder, walking away with Keegan still in his arms. Sickening.
