"I know this might seemed rushed but uh, well." He stumbles on his words, he seems nervous.

I look at him, questioning what he is about to say when he finally spits it out.

"Do you wanna be my girlfriend leyla?" He says and I almost choke. Since when? Huh? When did he even start to like me? Me? A girlfriend?

"Um.." I stutter, shocked by the things I just heard, I don't know what to answer, if I say no, will it ruin our friendship? It'll make it really awkward at work if I don't go out with him, and I'll have no one here since lana left, crap.

"Ha.. Zak, funny joke right?" I smile awkwardly, trying to brush it off and avoid answering but he just stares at me blankly, expecting an instant answer.

Oh, he's serious.

"sure.. I guess um. I don't really know what to do, but it won't be that bad I guess." I'm repeating my words at this point, wanting to leave this situation immediately, and he pulls me in for a tight hug, his hand resting way lower than I'd want it to on my back.

"I've never had a proper boyfriend" I blurt out and he looks shocked, slightly smiling at that.

I mean it's fine I suppose, grey clearly wants nothing to do with me, which still hurts by the way, I really thought I lov- liked him. But if grey feels that way, then I guess I move on.

"I love you" he grins, placing a soft kiss on the top of my head and I smile awkwardly.

"That's um- nice" I nod and he frowns slightly, probably not liking that answer, but I don't know if I love him. I don't want to say it and not mean it.

"I've got to get home, need to get tea on for me and my brother, I'll see you next week?" I mumble, and he nods, we say our goodbyes, and next thing you know I'm speeding out of the shop and walking home.

It's dark, like, really dark and I hate it. Normally grey comes and gets me to walk me home, but I guess he's that stubborn that he doesn't want anything to do with me now, and I guess that does hurt a little. He was practically my everything, I thought we'd have our story together, but I guess all good things come to an end. As much as I wanted it to last.

Zak's pov.

That's it, my pretty girl. Officially mine. She seemed hesitant, but I have my ways to get her to love me like a good girl.

I met leyla a little while back, I'll admit, I've thought she was cute from the day I'd met her, but it was even better when I found out who her brother was.

I grew up with a large family, If that's what you wanna call it, but it wasn't a normal family, it waa different.

I've always known i wanted to be like them, I've always admired their work and what they did, so I'm gonna do exactly what they did. I'll make my father proud.

Mine and Leylas precious family have had troubles in the past, they've always seemed to get the better of us, but it's going to change this time. I promise you. It'll be different dad.

If I can force leyla into loving me. Her brother will give into everything. He'll bow down to me in order to keep his pretty little sister safe, I'll practically own him.

I'll make him my bitch.

Back to leyla


It's only about an 18 minute walk home, but I have to go through a dodgy alleyway to get back, and I always hold grey extra tight when walking down there, but there's no grey, so I have to walk it alone tonight.
