Run from me darling

Ten

Blinding Lights-The Weeknd

I've been tryna call
I've been on my own for long enough
Maybe you can show me how to love, maybe
I'm going through withdrawals
You don't even have to do too much
You can turn me on with just a touch, baby

NINA

I was given the full tour of his mansion, this time the lights were on. It was beautiful. The outside was beautiful but the inside was better. Johnny, I remember him from a year ago, he was at the ball. I thought he didn't have any friends.

"I thought you would be about nine months pregnant now." Johnny spoke with his deep raspy voice. I look at him and at Castiel and they both start laughing and Johnny pats my back as if he knew me for years.

It was a small gesture but it made me feel welcomed and It made me feel much more comfortable in his presence.

"I'm just teasing you little bird. We all know that was because my boy Castiel was fuming with jealousy. I think that got Marcus off your back but it didn't get him off yours." He points to Cas who was giving him a death glare.

"I'm going to take care of Marcus. I just need to get him out of the business from his dad and things should follow after that." He takes a sip of his drink.

"You mean.. You are going to kill him?" It felt like vomit was coming up my throat but it was nothing. I just felt sick at the thought of someone as nice as Marcus getting killed. I know Cas said he wasn't nice but he was to me.

"Don't tell me you have the hots for Marcus." Johnny puts me on the spot.

"Please, inform us both." Cas speaks with pure distaste. I hated when he got the look of the devil on his face. It was cold and angry along with pure hatred. It was like a ghost took over his body and you could reach into him and you'd get nothing.

This part of him scared me. It scares me knowing how easy it was for him to switch it off. He said he didn't care about anyone and I refused to believe it and I still do. He uses this side of him to help with his past. I don't know anything about him but at one point he was just a kid asking for love.

"I don't really know him but he was nice to me."

"That wasn't the question he asked." I look at Cas, wondering why he wanted me to answer this. He hated Marcus so why was this being discussed in his house?

"I don't have the hots for Marcus. Sure he might have a pretty face but Cas has a pretty face too but I wouldn't fuck either of them so no Johnny.. I don't have the hots for Marcus."

I haven't changed much in a year but I'm more confident in speaking my mind.

"Damn little bird. I can see why he keeps you around. You have something inside of you that is ready to explode. Cute and quiet with a hint of crazy. I like her Cas." He pulled me into a hug and it felt like I was a part of his family.

Johnny seemed too nice to be in this business. Cas told me he wasn't a monster but he did bad things so what does that mean? I know he kills people but yet he claims he isn't a monster.

I don't get it. I can never seem to understand him.

"Um.. Thanks Johnny." I smiled before pulling away.

"I'm undercover right now as you know, and now you know since I guess you're a part of this operation we have going. If you see me in public, my name isn't johnny. It is Steven. Cas didn't want to get into the gun business but I've convinced him it is good to get a start. I'm befriending Carlos, a drug dealer. He carries the streets with weapons. We will eventually take over and boot Carlos out when he weakens."
