Aria's POV
Did this man not watch that one video in school - 'don't give tea without consent' ? because honestly it doesn't seem like it. Was he seriously going to let him get away with it?
I told Noel im good to carry on my shift but im not going back to table six. "Hey, are you new?" some very pretty girl asked me. "Yeah I just started today. going so well so far." I sarcastically said. "Table six?" how on earth did she know? Actually, on second thought, the whole bar probably saw what happened. "Yep." I mumbled. "Name?" she asked. "Oh sorry, im Aria, you?" she smiled. "Hello Aria, im Mia. I think we are going to be good friends." She smirk and I smiled. In the corner of my eye I saw Noel waving me over. "Sorry, Noel wants me." I smile and walk off. As I was about to ask which table, his face dropped.
"On seconds thought, ill take these. watch the bar please?" I stopped him. "Noel what's wrong?" I asked. "Uhm- table six." he looked up and I laughed. I took the tray and walked off.
I was placing the drinks on the table. The old man from earlier spoke. "This isn't mine." I just smiled and said. "sort it out amongst yourselves." I walked away and gave the tray to Noel. "I don't think you gave the right drinks around." he raised an eyebrow. "I know." I smirked. "they can deal with that themselves." I looked at the time to see its quarter to one. Noel knocked me out my thoughts. "Can you take these to table four?" I took the tray and gave a light smile. "Whisky?" I asked to the table. "that would be mine." a voice came from behind me.
Enzo. He sat down and I placed the drink down. I gave the last drinks around. I walked back to the bar. "What's boss man's name?" I asked Noel. "Enzo." I face palmed. "What do we have to call him you muppet!" Noel laughed. "Enzo."
"Oh. I thought it would be like Mr- I don't even know his last name. why do I not know anything about the people who I work for!?" I question and Noel laughed. I looked to see that I have 5 minutes left. Noel notices me eyeing the clock. "What?" he asked. "nothing I just need to call a cab." I sighed. "I can drive you home?" he offered but I didnt want to waste his time. "No, no, its fine ill get a cab." he raised a brow. "im fine!"
"You can leave now." he smiled. "thanks kahn bye!" he rolled his eyes when I walked out the door. I sat on the edge of the curb about to ring a taxi when i heard my name.
"Aria why are you on the floor?" Enzo asked and I turned around although I couldn't see him because it was so dark. "Well I was about to call a taxi." I muttered. Enzo doesn't currently come off as a good boss considering before. "Ill drive you." he didn't exactly offer it was more of a statement. "Im fine."
"No your not your shivering. Why didn't you bring a jacket with you?" he asked but I didnt respond. Why is he speaking as if he cares? We just barley met each other and on top of that he didnt do nothing about- wait as I was doing my last 10 minutes the man wasn't at his table? I don't care but why did he suddenly decide to go?
"I got rid of him." I heard Enzo say and I laughed. "The fuck you do? Kill him?" I was still laughing but I grew concerned when he didn't respond. "Enzo?" he stared into my eyes. My eyes grew wide. "You actually killed- why did you kill him?" Why would he kill someone because they touched me? We met an hour and a half ago and hes killing people. "Is that where you were when you weren't with your mates?"
"Mates? they are not mates." He muttered. "okay- that isn't the issue here! your killed someone?"
"Why aren't you scared and running in the other direction?" he questions. "Im not scared im confused? I thought you owned a bar not a gang." I lightly laughed but he didn't. I quickly turned to him and notices he had blood on his face and a bruise. I quickly grabbed his face. "Enso what the fuck? Is that yours or his?" he laughed. "his."
"pass me your keys." I told him. "No." fuck my life. I saw a lump in his pocket and noticed his keys so I quickly grabbed them. I stood up. "how on earth-?" I held out my hand for him to grab. "what's your address?"

We're currently in his car. "Why did you kill him?" I asked. "because he touched you." he replied. "So you- wait no. You can kill him but I cant punch him!?" I question. "Yes" was all he said so I rolled my eyes.
"Look im sorry for storming out your office like that but I was annoyed because I thought you were just going to let him get away with it. I didn't know you were going to kill the bloody man!" he looked at me. "Why would you think I would let him get away with it?" he questions. "Because you were a dick about it." he laughed. "I wouldn't let the fucker get away with touching people without consent." he reminded me of that video so I had to ask. "Did you watch that consent with tea video at school?" he just gave me a funny look.

when we got there he guided me to the lift and we went up to his apartment. "Damn. Fancy." I say in shock. His apartment was all black with many decorations. I would kill him if it meant I could live somewhere like this. "Where's your first aid box?" I ask. "Its just some cuts a bruises im fine." I poked his face and he hissed. "Just some cuts and bruises?"
