Chapter Thirty Two : Mine!!

                                   DENVER.

Yesterday was all kinds of exhilarating.

I was on edge the whole fucking time but it was bearable since my girl was there. Huh. My girl, I do love the sound of that and I'm going to make sure I act upon it effective today. That's right you heard me. To-day. How? I'll think of something. When? Pfft now. What? I just said I'm going to think about it, okay? Sheesh.

I realise I kept some things from the Sevilles like; Willy being my real dad, Dylan from school is my step-brother, among other things but I wasn't that comfortable with sharing so I guess I'll only tell Sia but she still should not tell her parents about it. It stays between us. Anyways, I need to get out of bed fast if I want to follow through with my plan for the day.

I get up, shower quickly and take the coffee the hotel offered with some biscuits for breakfast. Classy. Now, to start my day, I need to find all the romantic places I can find, something not fancy because I know Sia is not one for the fancy scene. It makes her uncomfortable and I know this because I tried to take her on a date back in California to a fancy hotel but she was jittery the whole time so we just had to leave. She prefers being around nature and I love that about her. I know a lot of places here in New York with good views where I can ask out my girl properly but I need an even better place and the only person that would know these hidden nice places would be.....Jr. I think I should call him. Think? Scoff. Of course I should. I dial his number as I'm seated on my bed looking outside through the floor-to-ceiling windows at the view of the city below me.

"Hey." He greets.

"Uh hey. You guys good?" I ask about him and Dylan.

"Yeah we're catching up. You?"

"I'm great so....I need your help." I go straight to the point.

"Uh...okay go on." I clear my throat.

"I...could you...fuck" I stutter and I don't even know why I'm embarrassed to ask what I want to ask.

"Fuck?" Jr's horrified voice shrills the phone but I am more horrified at his wrong wrong assumption.

"Gross, man. I hadn't finished my sentence, jerkass." I correct him and he blows out a breath.

"Had me for a minute there." He says laughing.

"Fuck off." I say with a smile and he laughs again.

"So what do you need?" He asks again and I sigh.

"Look, I know you know a lot more places around here than I do..." He hums for me to continue.  "I need a place to take my girl...somewhere outside with good views and nature." I say in one breath.

"Oh." Jr says and my brows furrow in confusion.

"What do you mean oh?"

"Oh Denver really is in love. Isn't that just adorable?" He says and I know he has a shit-eating grin on his face. Jerk.

"Shut up." I grumble.

"You're such a colourful person. Let some light in for once." He adds while laughing. Why does everyone tell me that? I can be fun. I scoff.

"I didn't call for a lecture now tell me a good place already." I say and he chuckles. I bet he's shaking his head too. Punk.

"Okay okay but I have to show you them for yourself because I might tell you a place and on reaching there, it's a turn off." He explains.

"I understand so can we meet? Like now?" I ask determinedly.

"Yes actually. I'm free for now. Meet me at the garage I work at when I'm off-duty." Off-duty meaning when he's not working for the gang and all in honesty, he should know that he's never getting his job back at the gang after ratting us out all these years to Willy but that's not the point right now.
