Days turned into weeks, weeks turned into months. I talked to Enzo here and there. Sometimes he was nice, which I didn't think was possible. But most of the time he was rude or annoying.
Besides that I was training every single day, Leo told me I was a natural fighter. I've kicked some of the new trainees ass that began training before I even came to Italy. I was getting better at using guns and knives.
Today was another Dinner night for Aurora's birthday. She was now 25, her and Nico became more serious. They were even really serious about their relationship when I first came here. To be honest I think he's going to pop the question soon.
"Happy birthday whore bag." I said to Aurora as I walked into the kitchen.
"I don't think that's right to talk like that when you're such a pretty lady." He was here already?
"Enzo, I believe I was not talking to you..... And don't call me a pretty lady. That sounded really creepy. Like a 50 year old man hitting on his 19 year old niece."
Enzo chuckled before taking a sip of his whiskey.
Did I just get this man to laugh?"She's right." Nico said while walking in the room towards Aurora.
"Happy Birthday baby."
"Thank you honey." A replied, giving him a kiss.
"Booo, get a room." I slightly yelled at them.
Enzo chuckled. Did I just get Enzo to laugh again?The two love birds left the room leaving Enzo and I alone.
"Where have you been?" Damnit Juliet, why did I ask that.
"New York. Doing work for your dad."
"Oh like what?"
"I can't tell you that."
I wasn't going to push him because we were having a nice conversation.
"What have you been up to?" he asked.
"Just working out and training. Along with guns and knives."
"You any good?"
"Anna and Leo say I am."
I looked at my phone and became frustrated.
"I'm sorry did I make you upset?"
Did he just apologize to me?"No, not at all. I just don't know what kind of dress to wear tonight."
"Wear white. You'd look hot in that color."
"I thought I told you to stop hitting on me."
I am aggravated now."I thought I told you that I didn't care."
"You never said that."
"Well I am now. What is your problem honestly Enzo?"
You. You're my problem. You come into my life and cause me pain and frustration."
"How do I do that? I haven't seen you in a couple of months."
"You're coming into this lifestyle that isn't good for you. And you walk in here like you've lived here forever. Like this is your normal life like before and." He paused
"And what Enzo? Tell me, please enlighten me."
With that his lips crashed into mine. He held me tight against him, he placed me on the counter. We continued to kiss. The kiss became hot and heavy. Then I realized that I gave in, I GAVE IN! I pushed him away.
"What the fuck was that Enzo?" I pushed him off and stomped out of the room.
