Video games (Ace Merrill ff)

Chapter 1

Gemma parked her motorcycle outside a bar named Irby's. Rose jumped off first then Gemma. ''Let's get a drink'' Gemma said and she bent down, tying her shoelace. She had blonde hair and wore thick orange makeup. It wasn't in fashion, nor was it attractive. But she didn't care. She liked her makeup.

Rose nodded and waited for her. She had long, silky brown hair, full soft lips, she was slim but had curves in all the right places. She had pale skin with rosy cheeks, she was 5'4. She wore blue shorts, a white crop top, a pair of chuck Taylors and a slightly oversized leather jacket.

Gemma stood up and they walked in. They looked around. There was a pool table, a bar and darts. ''I could get used to this'' Gemma said. ''Me n' you both'' Rose replied

They went to the bartender. He looked judgingly at Gemma and looked at Rose, checking her out. ''Two beers please'' Rose said and handed him five dollars. He nodded and cracked open the bottles and gave them to the girls. They sat at the booth and drank. ''He's here. I know he is'' Gemma said to Rose

''What if he's not'' Rose said, taking a swig of her beer

''Then we'll find him'' Gemma replied ''A guy is staring at you'' she pointed near the bar.

''Fuck'' Rose muttered as she recognised who it was ''Let's play pool'' as the pool table was now empty. The girls got up and set the triangle in the middle, putting the balls in it and getting their pool cue.

''Can I play with you'' a tipsy man asked

''The more the merrier'' Rose mumbled

As they were in the middle of playing, a group of boys around their age walked in. They ordered their beers and sat down.

''He's still looking'' Gemma said to Rose, pointing at a big guy in his thirties. Maybe in his forties, starting at Rose.

Rose rolled her eyes and walked up to the man. ''Take a picture it'll last longer'' she sneered. This caught Ace's and everyone else at the bar's attention.

''Well you haven't changed'' he replied

''What are you talking about''

''You owe me''

Gemma stood next to Rose defensively ''Your a total weirdo'' Rose replied

''You asking for a slap'' He stood up, getting right into her face

This is when Ace got involved. He stood next to Rose, his friends following behind him ''What's going on here'' he challenged the man

''It's alright. I can handle this'' she said, still glaring and the older man

''You don't even remember, do you'' he growled

''Remember what'' she huffed

''You torched my car'' he said

Ace smirked as some of his friends snickered

Rose thought for a second, her eyes widened, pretending to be horrified ''The red Mercedes- Benz?'' she asked

''Yes'' he replied

''That was yours?'' she asked

''Yes'' he replied

''That was a shit car'' she sneered

''It was worth 5 grand'' he growled

''It was worth 5 cents is that why you've been staring at me?'' she said

''I want compensation''

''Yeah? Well, I'm gonna smack you in the face with this pool cue, which one do you think is most likely to happen'' she asked

Ace stood silently, chewing his tooth pic while smirking. He's never seen a feisty girl like her before

The man glared at her then stormed off.

''Go girl'' Gemma said excitedly. Rose rolled her eyes ''Quite frankly I'm not in the mood to play pool anymore. I'll watch you guys instead'' she said

She sat at the bar when the blonde guy came over. ''Never seen a girl with this much fiest before'' he smirked. Rose rolled her eyes playfully ''You gonna buy me one of those'' she points at his beer.

''Only if I get your name first'' he smirked as he looked at her up and down

''Rose, what's yours'' she asked

''Ace'' he smirked. He ordered two beers and gave her one.

She thanked him and took a sip ''So, why did you torch his car'' he asked 

''He put pins under my friend's car tyres before a drag race, so we torched his. My idea'' she took credit as she lit a cigarette

''You should be careful who you do that to'' he smirked

''They should be careful around me, you mean'' she smirked back '' So, what's it like being a Cobra'' she asked

He raised a brow ''I thought you were new here. Never seen you before''

''My old man said there was a gang named the Cobras around here'' she said exhaling her smoke

''And who is your old man'' he asked, a little suspicious

Rose smiled ''What do you want, my life story''

''Just your secrets, sweetheart''

Rose rolled her eyes playfully ''It was nice talking to you Ace, but I gotta go. Thanks for the beer blondie'' she smirked and walked to Gemma

''Let's go'' she said and they left

Ace smirked 'I like a challenge' he thought and went back to the Cobras

''She's hot as fuck! And she's got balls. It's about time there was a change from the usual dumb bitches around here'' Eyeball explained as Ace sat next to him. They watched as Rose got on the back of Gemma's bike and left

''I call dibs on her'' Billy announced 

''She's mine'' Ace smirked 

''You always get the best girls'' Vince complained

Ace looked straight into his eyes ''Because I know how to play the game'' 

--------------------------------

''My uncle said we could borrow his house. As long as we rent it out. The key's under the matt'' Gemma said as they got off the bike

Rose nodded and got the key from the matt and unlocked the door. They looked around. It was small but just big enough for both of them. Gemma huffed, she hated small rooms. She walked out and got their bags from the bike.

''At least we get our own rooms'' Rose laughed

''How comes'' Gemma said

''So I don't have to listen to you snore at night'' Rose giggled ''And we could invite someone over and do whatever we want with them'' she smirked

Gemma laughed '' I could hear you through walls when you're doing the dirty, babe''

Rose playfully slapped her arm

''Daniel's coming with the car tomorrow to play mailbox baseball by the way'' Gemma said.

''Cool. I'm gonna have an early night. Night Gemma''

''Night''

Rose took her bags into her room. She neatly folded her clothes and put them in the wardrobe, then she put her makeup on the dressing table and her toiletries in the bathroom. She put a knife under her pillow and one on her dresser. Just in case.

She slumped into bed. She couldn't stop thinking about Ace. She knew he was a player. Anyone with a brain could tell. 'At least he'll be easier to manipulate' she thought and slowly drifted to sleep. But boy, she was wrong.
