Roses are Red (VegasPete FanFic) | AU | on going

Chapter 4

As Victor Ivanov exited the VIP booth, still pissed at the deal he made with Vegas Theerapanyakun, his eyes caught someone sitting on a high stool placed in the bar counter.

What are the chances to meet Rose tonight? It seems like Victor still has some luck tonight after the fail of his supposedly good deal.

Victor turned to his bodyguards, signaling them to give him a little bit space "Gain your senses and guard up" he says, He can't let his guard down can't he? after all he's planning to approach such a thorny and poisonous Rose.

His guards immediately paced, settling themselves on their own position not too far but also not too close to Rose.

Ivanov walked his way up and upon reaching Rose "What a lovely night to meet such a lovely person" he started.

Rose turned his face towards him, smirking but his eyes devoid of any emotion "One of the things I don't like to be called is 'lovely' Mr. Ivanov, if you want I can immediately show you what 'lovely' truly is" his voice laced with poison.

Ivanov tried to hide his fear but the shiver on his hands didn't escaped Rose's eye, Ivanov still settled himself on the stool next to Rose "Forgive me for the intrusion and if I'd made you feel insulted, you know that an old man didn't have his mind clearer like his early days" he tried to ensue a conversation by insulting himself, he's someone who has his pride higher than he could take, but his pride doesn't have a say to someone whose vicious like Rose.

Rose smirked to himself "You're too tense Mr. Ivanov relax, I'm not going to shoot you out of nowhere right? besides, I didn't bring a watch for you, not that you have a watch meant for you" Rose may sound like he's joking, but upon looking back at the drink in his hands, his eyes showed no humor.

Victor laughed almost like he's forced "of course not, besides we're on the same side, I think I didn't do anything that could offend someone like you" Victor tried his best to settle his nerves.

"Except calling me lovely tonight?" Rose replied.

Now Victor is really forced to laugh "I'm again just kidding" Rose immediately added before the man before him shit himself.

"So may I know what are you doing here Mr. Ivanov?" Rose questioned.

"I just made a deal with someone" Victor replied, still a little bit angry upon remembering what happened earlier.

"Is all well, it doesn't seem like it is Mr. Ivanov, say, who made you pissed off like that?" Now this is more like it, Rose thought.

"It's nothing really, but let say how about another deal? in cooperation with you now too of course" Ivakov seized the chance to make a deal with him.

Rose POV

He doesn't really know how dangerous this could be huh? A foolish old man indeed...

Rose felt a sense of someone looking at him when his eyes darted towards someone.

Vegas Theerapanyakun

He smirked to himself and finally shifted his eyes to the old man in front of him, but not without adjusting his position, leaning his body towards the counter sidewards, showcasing his body.

His waist chain dangling and lips shining, his lips smiled because of the excitement he can feel "What is the deal then Mr. Ivanov? Maybe you can make me be interested" he negotiated.

Rose saw how a sense of greed and lust reflected on the eyes of the bastard. Greed because of the possibility of having a deal with him and lust because of maybe how alluring himself was.

Disgusting...

Vegas POV

This is just the second time Vegas saw Rose again in person, but the man...

He's still as enticing as mermaid like before

Vegas settled himself on one of the available couches, some tried to approach him, if it's in another time maybe he would choose one he could sleep with for the night but now, his interest was all in for one person a he shrugged off those who tried to seduce him.

Let's see how everything will escalate tonight, if maybe he could also talk to Rose, maybe a deal or two?

Nah... He could just settle in talking, but looking at that luscious body, curves on the right places and that fucking waist to die for, maybe he won't be able to just settle with talk, maybe for... more.

Having this thoughts toward someone like Rose, Vegas felt himself harden. It's because of the excitement thinking that Rose maybe fragrant as a rose, and sleeping with someone like him might be the fantasies of many whose eyes seen him already before.

Rose...

He can see the two shaking hands, it seems like the has come to an agreement, that pissed Vegas off a little bit, the old man really has a luck tonight.

As Victor Ivanov left, Vegas stood up planning to approach the now alone Rose, but before he could even take another step forward, a bartender approached the man he's been intending too approach, flirted with him as Rose reciprocated and later on Rose immediately left after leaving a hefty amount of tip for the bartender.

Vegas followed suit, but as he got outside of the bar he saw Rose as he got in on a car, immediately speeding of to leave the place.

Vegas frowned at that, he's now really annoyed that he missed the chance to talk to Rose. He walked again inside and walked straight ahead on the bar counter, the bartender smirking towards him.

"You really have the nerve to flirt with others huh, how about I tell your fiance about it?" Vegas asked but then again, the bartender just shrugged at him making his eyes roll.

"Oh come on now Vegas, I'm just literally serving drinks" the bartender says.

"Out of boredom? again?" Vegas asked sarcastically, settling himself on one of the stools.

"Ugh Vegas, don't be a party pooper" the bartender replied in sass.

Vegas just again rolled his eyes "really Porsche, then should I tell Kinn then?" Porsche handed him his usual drink.

"Well Kinn knows, he's with me okay? He's just at the back talking to Ms. Yok, you know how she loves interrogating him, besides, you know, the man earlier, I think hes familiar, you know his eyes? maybe even his voice" Porsche observed.

That got Vegas' attention "and from where?" He asked.

But Porsche just shrugged him off "I don't know..."

Rose...

Later that night, as Vegas settled himself at his own house as he lives with his brother separately from their father, Vegas walked towards his office to check some documents and schedule for tomorrow, but as he entered his office, walking towards his desk, there, he saw an unfamiliar document settle just on top of it. The document is red in a cover, made with what he assumes a leather.

There a gold rose embellished on it...

As Vegas heart pounded with a quicker pace than normal, he opened it.

It was the document he signed with Victor Ivanov just earlier, but what shocked his was the name and signature changed, from Victor Ivanov to Rose, as in just Rose... There was signature that he saw for the first time, and he is sure as hell that it was really the Rose he's thinking about right now as the latter left a message. Another thing the percent they agreed on has changed... From 45% to 55% to 35% to 65%.

Deal?

Vegas laughed as his eyes glints, he felt a surge of challenge in him, and without a second thought he signed the contract himself.

A deal with Rose is better than having 45% isn't it? What a change of plan...
