-gunshots-

Mark : Shit...

Mark
He beat us at it. He started shooting at our car. I rolled down the window and started shooting back as I was driving with my free hand. I drove as fast as I could.

Mark : I think we lost him.
Giselle : Do you know if he saw me?
Mark : I'm not sure.
Giselle : Shit...
Mark : Don't worry I'll make sure you're safe.

Giselle
I stayed ducked throughout the whole ride just in case. Once we got to the parking lot of my apartment building he made sure the coast was clear.

Giselle's Apartment

Mark : How are you feeling? Giselle : Honestly? With a big weight off my shoulders

Mark : How are you feeling?
Giselle : Honestly? With a big weight off my shoulders.
Mark : Relieved?
Giselle : In a way yes.
Mark : See? I told you that you could handle it.
Giselle : Because I have you. Thank you Mark.
Mark : What are friends for?

Giselle
I got closer to him and slowly wrapped my arms around his neck in a seductive way. I leaned in to kiss him but didn't fully kiss him. Im not sure if he wants me to.

Giselle : Can I kiss you?
Mark : Are you sure?
Giselle : I wouldn't be asking if I wasn't....
Mark : How about.....

Mark
I cupped her face and kissed her first this time. She started lifting up her leg to my waist. I picked her up and walked us into the bedroom.

I laid her down on the bed but pulled away from her lips to kiss her cheek instead.

Mark : Belleza

Mark : Belleza.....
Giselle : Tell me..
Mark : I like you. A lot....
Giselle : -smile- Really?
Mark : I do and that's why I want something serious with you. I understand you're just getting out of a relationship and you won't trust easily but let me....let me try to make you fall for me.
Giselle : if there's someone I trust with my life, it's you!
Mark : I can assure you that.
Giselle : I guess I'll give you a chance but please.......be patient with me.
Mark : I will...
Giselle : Can you stay the night? I don't want to be alone...
Mark : I can.
Giselle : I'll just go for a quick shower.
Mark : Go on then.

Giselle
I gave him a quick kiss before getting up.

Honestly, with Mark, I feel so much better. I feel calm.

Hotel

Guard : Boss I lost them...
Mr Zamora : I have another task for you.
Guard : What do I have to do?
Mr Zamora : Kill Elvira! That'll get Giselle to fly back to Philadelphia.
Guard : Consider it done.

-phone call-

Marcelo : What happened?
Mark : We lost him.
Marcelo : Good! I want you to do everything you can to find him. Make sure to not leave Giselle alone.
Mark : You got it boss.
Marcelo : Call me once you have something.
Mark : Will do! -ends call-

Giselle
When I came out of the bathroom, Mark was sitting on the couch typing away on his computer.

Giselle : You're still up?
Mark : I have some work to do but you go ahead. Get some sleep Belleza. You need it.
Giselle : Where are you going to sleep?
Mark : Couch obviously.
Giselle : Sleep with me...
Mark : ....Are you sure?
Giselle : Mhm, we'll just be sleeping anyway.
Mark : I'll catch up to you.
Giselle : Okay! -walks away-

-phone ring-

Giselle
I checked my phone to see it was Miguel.

I store at it debating if I should answer or not.

I decided not to.
I don't want to hear his voice or see him ever again!

Declined!

Mark
I stayed in the living room doing some investigations. It took around two hours. I got tired so I headed for a quick shower before getting in bed with Giselle.

A part of me wants to sleep with her. I know I can give her the affection she needs.

On the other hand, I think we're going too fast. She just got out of a relationship. I know she may feel confused. She loved Miguel a lot.

After a few minutes I finally made up my mind.

I got in bed with her. As she said, we'll only be sleeping.

Miguel's House

Miguel : -walks in-
Rubi : What are you doing here?
Miguel : I came for my things.
Rubi : Wow Miguel, just like that? Where's your explanation? Where's your apology?
Miguel : I don't want to fight. I just want to get my things and leave in peace.
Rubi : You think it's that easy? Miguel, we're going to file for a divorce. I'm pregnant with your child. This house belongs to the both of us. You think we can end it just like that?
Miguel : Why do you want explanations? Do you really want to know my reasons?
Rubi : Clearly I wasn't enough. What was your plan? To keep us both? In the end you chose her but she didn't want you anymore. I'm glad she didn't fall in that trap. You don't deserve her.
Miguel : I love her. No one will love her like I do. I deserve her. She's mine and mine only.
Rubi : Are you sure? She pushed you away.
Miguel : I'm not going to give up on her.
Rubi : Don't ruin her life Miguel. She's very young.
Miguel : Now if you excuse me-
Rubi : Just answer one question.
Miguel : What?
Rubi : What did she give you that I didn't?
Miguel : ....
Rubi : Answer.
Miguel : I don't have an answer to that. I simply fell in love with her. It's her who I want to be with. -walks away-
