~16~

I'm getting repetitive, but sorry for not posting 💀 I just edit a single chapter 5
times to fix typos, rewrite lines, make more changes and perfecting it until I like it enough to post it for y'all :') Enjoy!!

Y/n's pov:

"Hey! So what now? Are we going straight to that guy?" I was excited, wanting to beat up the fucks that plotted against us. "Yes, it would be an unexpected attack since he doesn't know anything. He is sure that we cannot find out the one behind it all. You say he threatened the guy we interrogated to kill his family if he says anything? Who in the world has a family when they're the boss of the mob.." Diego spoke. "Impractical.. But why don't we just give him to the police, hire someone to kill him even?" We were literally walking towards the New York's Hall and attracting too many spectators.. "No, no.. I will broadcast it!" He spoke out. "Huh?! Fuck you mean broadcast it?! Broadcast killing a politician?!" I was scared of his exaggerated acts. "Yeah, everyone must see what happens with traitors." He was definitely certain and not joking. "You can't be serious, people are going to take you down once they see that shit! Why would you take such risks? Why are you doing this to your reputation!?" I tried convincing him not to do such things. "..No one is taking me down from my position as long as I am alive. This place belongs to me. And I'll be doing this for the sole reason of informing people of the coincidences of any oppositions towards me." He really thought of it as a good idea. "No, no, you don't get it! You can't post such things in 2038. Well practically you can, but it is not good, at all! Make someone else kill him, but don't stain your hands with blood!" I grabbed his arm and pulled him to stop. "..You're really worried, Y/n. But I guess I should take this into consideration. I can tell that you really don't want me to do this, so I will listen to your advice." He tapped me on my shoulder. "..What the fuck-" Diego was acting all weird. Like I was his business partner or something. "I'm going home." I was tired of it all and gradually turned around. "You are not going anywhere." He pulled me back. "Yeah, I am! You're having some shitty ass mood right now, but I'm not here for any of it!" I snapped. I had enough of his bloodthirsty persona. "Don't make a public scene now-" "I couldn't care less about it, I don't want to be a part of you ruthlessly killing someone like that! You should learn to draw the-" He pushed his hand over my mouth to shut me up. "You are really trying hard to kill us again, you're going to keep acting like that? What has gotten into you? Can't you realize how serious this is??" Diego shook me up. "I don't think neither of us do. Do you even love me anymore? Or are you just using me so you can survive in this modern world? You only need me because you can't reach your heightened goals without my help, what if that's true?!" I confronted him. "What- What are you talking about, Y/n?? You've lost your mind, you can't even trust me anymore!" He quietly said, looking around. "That's because you-" "You don't know what you're saying, Y/N! I'm doing this all for you and you're still being ungrateful! This is our future, what the hell did I do now?!" Diego gritted his teeth. "You treated me just like another business friend of yours! What was that tap on the shoulder? 'Yeah, thank you for the advice blah blah'! Why are you ignoring me when I need your reassurance the most?!" I cried out. "Reassurance? I am with you all. The. Time! Just because I couldn't give you affection for a mere second doesn't mean that you should doubt our whole relationship! And why are you crying now? I th-" He suddenly stopped. "You seriously need a break, Y/n. I don't want to see you being like this at all. It pains me to see you hurting. I should've listened to you when you said you couldn't 'keep up'. I'm sorry for keeping to drag you into all of this. You can go home if you want." His attitude suddenly changed, he hugged me and gave me a kiss on my cheek. "Huh- why did this feel so good.?" I couldn't get if it was because of the physical affection or the complete understanding that he possessed. "What is it? You can really go, it's fine." He let go of me. "I'll be with you, I owe you it." I couldn't leave him alone even if he wanted to. "You don't owe me anything, you can just say that this is what you want. Let's not waste any more time and go." He grabbed my hand and hurried.
