The four of us

Chapter 8 [not edited]

It's the mafia ball and I'm scared because last night Gray told me to stay close to him always because the men attending are all murders and they don't know about me yet. I guess that's a bad thing.

"I'm getting dressed then I'll be down" I hugged Grayson he seemed worried "ok be quick also Rory will have the house with a couple bodyguards but tell her to not let anyone here and also maybe stay in your room" Grayson said leaving the room to let me get changed.

I got the dress on with some help from Rory "you look amazing" she smiled as I spun around "ok I have to go you have the house to yourself with some bodyguards but just stay in here the mini fridge is packed and there's chips all you can eat, also the tv is working now so watch something till we get back". She nodded gave me a hug then I left so we weren't late.

I slow walked down the stairs my dress was a pretty light blue greyish and it was more of a ball gown it had like crystals down and flowers and it is very pretty. The top is gems all the way around and the straps are a light blue lace.  My heals are a pretty blue and high.

Lexi was wearing a pretty yellow dress strapless. Freya had a ruby coloured dress with gems on the top and the dress.

I got down to the boys and Grayson walked up to me. "You looked beautiful tsvetok" he said with a cute little smile on his face. He was giving a beautiful blue gemmed necklace it was silvers diamonds and deep blue gems it was a big necklace "here you wear these they are the mafia colours" he placed the necklace on me neck "also where is Rory" he said looking behind me "you said she has the house to herself she sun my room watching tv why?"

He hit is forehead "I forgot to tell you Camden doesn't have anyone to go with and instead of one of the mafia whores I said he has to take Rory because my second in command taking a common whore isn't a good look" I glared at him "don't call then whores they are girls" I whispered "your cute when your making a point" he smiled looking down at me.

I rushed upstairs and into my room with a emerald coloured dress I burst into my room and Rory jumped "put this on your coming to the ball" I yelled she got up and rushed to out he dress on I did some light makeup and brushed out her hair. We both walked out and then we all left.

"So who am I going to the ball with" Rory asked me. I knew she wouldn't like the answer "Camden" I said smiling "really you couldn't have said that before" we both laughed and we where at the place. A massive mansion with a rich looking carpet at the entrance.

We walked in all with the right dates first was Lexi and Zach, then freya and Anthony, then Rory and Camden they all got called on as they entered then where me and Grayson I gripped onto his arm feeling nervous "it's ok tsvetok just stay with me" we walked through the double doors.

"Calling Grayson Hermandaz and Narla McKay" I heard people gasp but I was also to nervous and focusing on not falling done these stairs. Probably gripping so hard onto gray that it hurts but what are boyfriends for. Oh shit I did not just think that.

"Also not to freak you out but my parents are hosting and we have to go see them" I was stunned I am going to meet Graysons parents "I didn't know you had parents" I yelled but also whispered at Grayson "who do you think made me" eww "you know what I mean I thought maybe they moved or something I mean how old are you like 20" he nodded wait really "you know Im only 18" he nodded.

We walked up to these throne looking chairs "hi mother hi father" Grayson said creating his parents "hello Grayson" his mother said kissing his checks "who is the young lady you have brought with you today" his father looked down at me.

"This is Narla, Narla my parents" I shock there hands "a pleasure to meet you" I said nervously "my name is Phoenix" his father said "mine is Millie" his mother said she seems warm and a mother you can hug.

Grayson pulled me away from them to dance "I don't know how to dance" I said to gray "follow my moves" he said starting to dance. I looked over to see Camden and Rory dancing like they mean it "rosy and Camden seem to be hitting it off" I whispered to Grayson "yeah they do he seems happy" he responded and we slow danced for a while till some dude walked up and slapped Graysons on the shoulder and for some reason I felt this wave of defence wash over me.

"Omg James it's been forever" Grayson said hugging this dude  "would you like to tell me who this young lady is" James said "yeah of course this is Narla my date and girlfriend" he said it it send butterflies to my stomach "wow someone grabbed the almighty Grayson" he laughed "look man it was nice seeing you but my girl is giving me death stares so I better get back you kids have fun" James said walking off.

"Who's that" I whispered "James he's a long time friend of mine but I haven't seen him in a while his girl just had a kid so they have taken a step back from the mafia for now" "oh good for him" I said "I always wanted kids" he looked confused "wanted?" He questioned "yeah my family wasn't the best environment so I always told myself to stop the bloodline at me but I guess I don't see them anymore so maybe that has changed" I finished this sentence and he smiled almost happy.
