Murder For One, Make It For Two

Chapter 13

Music plays through the room as Anthony sighs happily, laying on his bed with the radio playing.

It's been two weeks since that night he spent with Anton and he was extremely happy.

He has a new cooking buddy in Natalie, Harold and him got along great with drinking, the man teaching him how to count cards, not to mention his card tricks. Those were amazing.

Anton and him were moving along well with their relationship, though they still have yet to have that lunch date with Marie. His twin is so busy now, he wonders with what but she won't even tell him.

Probably some top secret Mafia mission or something, she's usually kept out of the family business but sometimes Hadrian will employ her for a job if no one else can handle a delicate operation.

Anthony sighs to get off his bed, switching the radio off.

It was about time for lunch, time to meet up with Joey for lunch. He hasn't seen much of his friend since that disastrous night at the French restaurant.

Joey stayed quiet for awhile before finally appearing to ask him to lunch to catch up. Apparently he was pulled into some big business for his father, but that wasn't it.

Anthony was trained to see lies, a very important skill for torturing your victims to make sure they're singing the right tune. But he didn't push it, he missed hanging around his friend, but still, why did he lie?

Was something going on he wasn't aware of?

Grabbing his coat off his desk, the white haired man makes his way to the door. As he reaches it, the door opens to reveal Marie.

"Anthony, on your way out?" she asked.

"Ya, Joey and I are meeting for lunch." said Anthony with a smile.

"Aw, I was hoping we could eat together, I finally got through with my stuff." whined Marie.

"Calm down, Marie, how about you join Joey and I for lunch, I'm sure he won't mind." said Anthony.

"Good, I haven't seen him in forever, let's go." said Marie happily.

The twin smile at each other before leaving the house, walking down the sidewalk to their destination.

"Say, since you're free, I was wondering, do you want to meet Anton?" asked Anthony.

"Really, he wants to meet me, wow, you guys must be serious." said Marie.

"Well, we have been together for a few weeks, but ya, I tell him about you all the time and he wants to meet you, I was thinking we have lunch at that cafe/bakery you love." said Anthony.

"Sounds perfect, I can't wait to meet him, he sounds nice... well apart from the killing and eating his victims." said Marie.

The white haired man just laughs at that as they see the cafe in sight. The two walk in and see Joey immediately.

"Anthony, there you are... oh Marie, I wasn't expecting you." said Joey.

The mobster raises an eyebrow as the white haired woman giggles at him.

"I finished my job up so I came to join you guys, it's been forever since we last saw each other." said Marie.

The dark haired man agrees and talks to Marie with a smile. Anthony wasn't too sure, Joey didn't seem happy about her surprise entrance.

Why, the two are great friends and he was always happy to see her, so why was he mad?

The three sat at the table, talking happily and catching up.
