song: stitches - shawn mendes
❀ ·˚ ༘ ∘HIS HANDS WERE a light feather touch on my hips, it's almost as if it might not even be there. A guy with shaggy light brown hair and dark blue eyes was dancing with me. I had got caught up in a dance twirl or something and somehow ended up with him.
"So, you're Grayson's girl, huh?" He laughed and took a side-eyed glance towards Gray who was sitting manspread at a table, glaring at him. "Oh, no. I couldn't be considered as that. We're just working together." I smiled up at the nice guy, his name claimed to be Alexander.
"I see the way he looks at you, Athena. Don't deny it." He raised his brows giving me a look. "Y'know, that's the second time someone said that to me." I looked down at my feet and smiled to myself.
"Maybe you need to hear it."
I took his words into thought and started wondering. How does he look at me? I've never noticed anything. "Well. I don't know, Alex. Can I call you that? I'm gonna call you that. But anyways, we're just so confusing. Gray and I are like.. I don't know." I mumbled off not being able to put whatever we were into words.
"I don't know your guys history, but I know that, he looks at you like he wants to fall in love with you." My mouth dropped, my breath catching in my mouth. "Y'know. I've never known Grayson personally, but I know the type of person he is. He's.. he's ruthless. Spares no mercy. I don't think anyone would expect him to show up with a women in hand tonight. But you're lucky, very lucky."
"Why is that?" I asked him, curious to know more and more and for him to elaborate. "Why? Athena you have the largest, most powerful man at your knees. The most powerful mafia is owned by him, did you know that? And he is head over heels for you. You just don't realize it."
"I.. Alex. I don't know what to say to that." I nibbled my bottom lip in frustration. Is this true? How would I know? Gray would never. But what if he did? Oh gosh.
"Okay.. don't believe it. But be careful, Grayson's.. well Grayson. He's confusing, I think everyone could be able to put one and one together." I nodded, lost in a cloud of thoughts. "So? What about you?" I asked him, eager to change the subject.
"Me? Well, my girl is really confusing too. But she's been through so much I can't even blame her. I think I might propose." Alex had a glimmer in his eyes, his mind drifted off into a fantasy of him and Isla.
Isla was a goregous blonde girl with dark highlights that accentuated her features. Her makeup was stunning, I should ask her for some tips. "Oh my goodness! You totally should. I think your girl's waiting for you now, you should go." I winked at him and gave him a shove towards the pretty blondie sitting at a table, laughing with the girl that Jack wanted to shoot his shot with.
"Okay, okay!" He laughed but stopped. "I hope you and Grayson work out. No one's ever seen him like this before, and we might wanna keep it that way. Or he'd be killing everyone that even dared to look in his way if it weren't for you."
