So Close

4- Drunk

Isabella

Did he just.. flirt with me? I could feel my face burning up as he smirked at me. Woah. I felt something weird punching my stomach. Butterflies?

He only flirted with me but it was enough to make my body flip and do a universal cart wheel 9000. And that's not even a thing.

The door to the cafe suddenly burst open making me automatically turn my head into that direction. Two men. They looked around before looking at the man in front of me.
Do they know him?

One of them suddenly spoke in a scary tone which I'm not gonna lie scared me a little.
"Ashton." Was that his name?
The guy in front of me who I'm guessing is "Ashton" suddenly stopped smirking and looked a bit more...dark and scary. It was like he suddenly put another persons angry face on. Duality.

What. The. Freak!!

He got up and looked at them before nodding his head, they obviously understood and left outside the cafe before turning back to me now with a sweet and soft face. Again. Duality.

"Don't worry dear, I'll be back soon, you wait for me yes?"
Even though it sounded like a question he still left before I could respond and give him an answer.  Just then Kate walked towards me.

"What's up with him? Didn't he want anything?" She looked at me confused as she nodded towards the direction he left in.
"Yeah but I guess something came up guessing by the way he left as soon as his friends came and called him. Ashton is his name."
As I shrugged before turning to look at her only to be confused at her facial expression.

"Isabella, do not, and I repeat, do NOT cross paths with him, his friends nor with ANYONE who knows him again do you understand?"
What was going on today?

"Why what's wrong Kate?"
"He's bad news Isabella, very bad news. He's the worlds most dangerous mafia leader. He holds power stronger than anyone alive."
She got cut off as a customer called for her, she looked at me before parting my shoulder and walking to the customer.

I just stood there still. In complete total shock.
The worlds most dangerous mafia leader just entered our cafe,  flirted with me, and then left.

What scared me more was that he said he'd come back for me later. What if he would kill me later? What if he had sex with me and then killed me? What if he kidnaps me if he asked me to go with him and I refused?!!

Oh no!! This is bad! Real bad! What would I do now if he ever came back? I can't say nor do anything! He's too powerful and probably not even the police or the SWAT team could save me.
I'm doomed!

I looked at my watch and then got back to work. Tomorrow is Sunday. No work. Good.
I'll meet up with Lola and have her come sleepover, then I'll tell her everything. Whatever happened today and the weird nightmare I had when she slept over. The nightmare. But the man seemed so..real?

It's fine though, I'm sure she would have a reason and an answer. She always does.

Sunday.

It was finally Sunday! To be honest, I couldn't sleep last night, not after the text message I received from him.
