Intoxicated

Reuben

I was awake the whole time, I could sense her admiring me. Once I heard her get up and walk out my door I was filled with regret

I lied about not remembering what happened at the hospital, I do remember every word I said I just don't want to admit it. 

Casey's dead and she's gone, She manipulated me and Marco which led to me losing control of my anger and took it out on her. 

I promised Victoria I would tell her but I know what will happen exactly, She'll fear me, not want to go near me and I'm afraid history will repeat itself, 

She's nearly been killed multiple times because of my past, Because of Casey, she will always haunt me not just in my dreams but in real life. 

I didn't want Victoria to leave my side because I know how much of a dumbass I am, I would go after Enzo even if I've been stabbed more than once and I would still get up and fight. 

I'm not a pussy like him, I got up and changed into a black tux and hid my gun under my pants, I peeked out of my room and made sure I didn't see Victoria or anyone else

I opened my door and saw Victoria standing in front of my door having her arms crossed with a not-so-pleasant look

"I'm not stupid I know what you're doing" Victoria spoke as I felt defeated, "Look mom I'll be home by 11 sharp" 

I rolled my eyes opening my door wide open, "No! You are not leaving you will stay and rest till your fully recover!" Victoria bossed me around

I couldn't help but be mesmerized by her, "I love when you boss me around" SHIT? Did I say that out loud, "I um" She suddenly got nervous and forget why I was dressed

"Um- Anyways now that you have proven you can't stay alone for half a minute I have to be in the same room with you" Victoria uttered urgently, Trying to keep her confidence up. How cute could she be?

"Dramatic much" I hissed rolling my eyes, "I'm not being dramatic! Gosh your so arrogant" She growled stomping her foot in frustration

I softly chuckled as she stormed in closing the door behind her, "Now get change and find something better to do!" 

Victoria pointed at my closet frowning at me, Sheesh when did she get so bossy not that I'm complaining

"Fine" I spoke quietly walking over to my closet to change, 

Victoria

Everywhere he went I followed like a little puppy and I knew he enjoyed it while I found it annoyingly stressful

He was laying down in the living room while I sat across from him reading a book, "Want a drink?" he poured a bottle of liquor into a glass

"You can't drink yet it's dangerous" I rolled my eyes "I am danger love" He smirked handing me a cup

I scoff and roll my eyes, It's been a couple of weeks he should be good but his stitches aren't fully healed just yet. He pours himself a cup and sits beside me

It was dark out and only one lamp brighten the room. looked pretty creepy outside but I felt comfortable being beside him

"What are you reading?" He questioned curiously staring directly at the book "A book" I sighed annoyingly "What kind of book" He rolled his eyes 

"Romance" 
"Hmm" He hummed staying quiet for a few seconds, "Read to me" Reuben tilted my chin to face him as I see a little grin on his face

Not that kind of book... "Uh maybe I shouldn't it's not that entertaining" I shyly slowly closed the book "It has to be when your halfway done" 

His deep accent spoke, His husky voice is compelling, I reopen the book and started reading to him 

"I felt his soft warm icy cold lips touch mine as our tounges played around, His cold hands on my waist pulling me closer to his chest, This man is everything I knew he would be like, His taste, His touch, I felt him get excited- Thats enough" 

I immediately shut the book and noticed him listening to every word I said, "I didn't know you were into that" Reubens's facial expression changed completely

His look, I remember it I could never forget that look. The first night he showed his true self, His glance moved down to my lips

Why did he had to stare at me like that?! All I could think of is how badly I wanted his lips on mine, I need his body on mine. 

What am I so afraid of anyway? There is nothing wrong with laying one single kiss on the most dangerous assassin, Not just one kiss I want more 

"Reuben..." I voiced seductively  "No, Dont do that, Dont say my name like that." His voice softened but felt dangerous at the same time

His barriers were falling slowly by the second, "Not unless you're ready" He leaned closer to me softly placing his hand on my thigh

Gripping it tightly. My imagination is going wild the things I want to do to this man are unexplainable. The air surrounding us became thick, almost suffocating 

Slowly intoxicating us with each passing moment, I felt the urge to get closer to be close to him, Actually, I rather be all over him.

I can almost read his mind and know that we're thinking the same things...

So I decided it was best to keep my distance. Because if I don't this single couch will be the death of me. My body would hold control over my mind. 

there's no telling what my hands will do after that. Being around Reuben makes me feel a lot of things always has

Annoyed, Fluster, Maybe even more... even a little too comfortable, This intense tension craving around us is new.

And Im not sure what it means or how to handle it. "I'm tired and it's late I should go!"I cheered closing the book harshly making a loud noise, As I was about to stand up Reuben grabbed my wrist...
