to love is to take a risk (sequel to risky behavior)

Chapter 11

Mercedes P.O.V

"Great" I thought to myself.

Out of all the fucking restaurant's in this city he had to be here and of all the women that fell to his feet he brought her.

I wouldn't have been that mad if he had brought someone else besides her.

Actually no.

I still would have been mad but not as mad as I was staring directly at the girl who was waving her fingers at me with that smirk.

That fucking whore.

I rolled my eyes at Kylian and turned back to Pedri not giving them anymore of my attention.

"Just ignore them. He's just trying to make you mad by looking over here." he said rubbing my arms in an attempt to calm my nerves.

"Yeah your right." I said giving him a half smile.

We were ushered to our table which happened to be right in front of where Kylian's table was.

"Um excuse me waiter. Sorry to bother but is it okay if we can switch tables. Possibly somewhere away from him" I said pointing to Kylian with an irritated expression.

"Mercedes. Why are you letting him get to you so much?" he asked tugging on my arm.

"What. Are you not over him or something" he asked raising an eyebrow.

I scoffed.

"I am it's just..okay fine whatever we'll sit here" I said sitting down in my chair.

Pedri sat down as well but with a worried expression on his face.

"It's okay. I'm here with you. Just focus on me okay?" he said grabbing my hand and putting it in his.

"Okay" I said smiling.

We went over the menus before ordering and were waiting on our food when Pedri had gotten a call from Xavi saying he urgently needed to speak with him regarding business.

I understood and let him excuse himself while he sorted out the issue.

I decided to pass time on my phone since I didn't want to look like an idiot just sitting there and staring but right when I reached for my phone I heard a familiar voice.

"I thought he would last longer than that" he scoffed.

"What are you on about Kylian?" I asked rolling my eyes.

"Your date. You already scared him away huh" he laughed and Bianca joined him.

"Shut up" I said giving him the middle finger.

"Watch it Mercedes." he demanded.

"Or what" I said.

"Or I'll have to teach Pedri's girl a lesson" he said smirking.

"Unbelievable. You have a whole girl sitting across from you" I said.

"There's no one I see besides the gorgeous one sitting in front of my table" he said.

"Ky.Stop" I said getting a little flustered.

He was about to reply I saw his mouth abruptly shut and glance away from where I was back to Bianca.

Pedri was back.

"Hey Mercy. I'm sorry it took so long. Look there's been a mix up at work and I have to go right now. I'm so sorry I won't be able to stay. I can drop you on the way if you want" he said in a rush.

"Uhm. No it's fine. I don't mind" I said giving a tiny smile.

"Okay thanks. I'm so sorry bebé I promise I'll make it up to you." he said giving me a kiss on the cheek before rushing out of the restaurant.

I couldn't be mad at Pedri because it seemed like a genuine issue he had going on.

And the type of guy he was, he wasn't the type to flake for no reason so I accepted him leaving and decided it was time for me to go as well.

"Wait Mercedes . Where are you going" Kylian asked with furrowed brows.

"Home" I spat.

"Why?" he asked.

"None of your business Kylian." I said walking off to the exit.

He followed me outside and I felt a tug in my arm pull me around to face him.

"What happened amour" he asked stroking my cheek.

"What do you think your doing Kylian. Stay away from me" I said pushing him off of me.

"I'm just trying to make sure your okay. I saw Pedri leave so I thought maybe something happened" he said.

"Yeah he had to leave for a work thing" I said kicking at the rocks of the broken road with my heels.

"Let me take you home then" he said putting his hand on my shoulder.

"No. You don't need to act like this. We're not even together." I said scooting away from his touch.

"Why are you being so difficult Mercedes. I'm just trying to help you out after your boyfriend literally left you here" he said scoffing.

"What exactly do you think is going to happen when I accept your offer. We're gonna end up fucking and then everything will be okay again until you go and fuck it up like you always do. That's why I need to stay the fuck away from you" I said with a shaky voice.

"I'm the problem now?!?" he said shouting.

"Your the one who sent me a picture of you getting fingered by another man when we literally fucked a few hours prior to that and you don't think that's a problem???" he spat.

"It was because of YOU. You make me feel like shit. I just wanted to fuck someone who actually cared about me in a genuine way. You just wanna have me around to fuck." I said with my head low.

"Mercedes. Can you not see that I am in fucking love with you. I can't even look at another girl without thinking about you. I cant fuck any other girl without imagining it's you I'm inside of. I cant even think straight at work knowing your not mine. I think about you all the fucking time. Listen to me."

He turned me around to face him.

"Je t'aime tellement." I love you so much.

He said before grabbing the back of my head and pushing me towards his lips.
