Mafia fascinations(2nd book in mafias obsession series)

chapter 14: In my defence, he was asking to be killed

!Trigger Warning!: This chapter contains a slightly extreme murder scene, if that will disturb or trigger you do not read.

Nightclubs. Places you can find all sorts of people.

People who are happy and celebrating, people who are trying to forget day to day life, people who are trying to drown their sorrows in alcohol and people who are simply there for intimacy. Those are the main types of people you'll find, you'll look around and you'll see 20 year olds enjoying their life, 18 year olds there to celebrate their new coming freedom and usually they'll be the odd man in the corner staring, clearly thinking things he shouldn't.

And then you'll find the odd ones out. The people who clearly don't fit in, who are most possibly underage and who should probably be doing their school work on a night like this. Also known as people like me. Shaun somewhat didn't fit in either but he blended in more with the crowd than I did. Maybe that was because of who he was standing next to though. Every girl in the club seemed to be staring Masky up and down like he was some new meal on the menu for them to devour, too bad I knew how possessive my best friend could be at times.

Flora was over in the corner, getting to know Summer and Fynn. I was sure they would get along like a house on fire, their personalities were very similar and they were the softest three of us all. They weren't the type that would put themselves in with the crowd and take shots with them, instead they were the type to go off in small groups and drink a cocktail or glass of wine or maybe just a glass of water.

Of course Creed and Zara weren't too far from them, being as they were so sweetly protective over Summer. Instead they were sat at their own table that was practically next to theirs and whispering things to each other. Who knew what they were saying. It was probably something flirtatious though seeing as there was small smirks and blushes exchanged that was hidden from general eye view.

Liver and surprisingly Blade, were watching the performers with girls sat next to them. The girls were clearly attracted to them as they kept batting their eyes and giving the fake smiles girls usually give to make boys want to get in their pants. Truthfully it disturbed me more than anything. Why they thought it was attractive was past me but I suppose I never fitted in with girls much anyway. Correction I never fitted in with anyone much. The girls were always talking about boys half the time which I could never relate to and the boys were always talking about sports, again something I couldn't relate to. So instead I enjoyed keeping to myself with the odd friend or two, it was better than way, people wouldn't judge you if you weren't around them. They wouldn't have the chance to.

Sadie and Lye were talking to some people, who mostly I didn't recognise, the two people I did was Mia and Elliot. Not that that part mattered much, Mia was too involved with the conversation to recognise anyone else and Elliot kept staring at a girl with blonde hair and eyes that he kept getting himself lost in. Of course I kept watching Sadie and Lye as I was always worried if they were out of my eyesight for too long, but truthfully I enjoyed being sat at a table alone. It felt peaceful, being able to watch everyone enjoy their lives as I sat with my glass of whiskey in hand. I always liked the taste of whiskey, which usually surprised most, but I just always loved how it was sweet but never went overboard. Whiskey was one of the most perfect drinks someone could have, almost as perfect as the two people I came to this place for in the first place.

My eyes travelled over Sadie's body for a moment, but I instantly drew them away. She was most likely gonna get drunk, if she wasn't already, and I didn't want to seem like I was taking advantage of her whilst she was. Maybe you would call it paranoia but If she was to do anything with me I wanted her to be 100% positive with consent and sure that it was her talking and not just the alcohol.

I sighed as I took another sip of my drink. Why people enjoyed clubbing so much I didn't know and I couldn't guess why either. It involved dancing until your legs felt numb and drinking until you had a headache, how was that what people called fun? If anything clubbing was the most boring activity I had ever entertained. All I wanted was to go home, snuggle under a blanket and watch a film with the two people I loved by my side. Now that sounded a lot better than this.

"Enjoying yourself?" I head Shaun's laughter as him and Masky sat beside me.

"Do I look like I'm enjoying myself?" I asked, seemingly amusing him and the boy he had wrapped around his finger.

"Yes?" Shaun answered before bursting into laughter at my facial expression of annoyance. "Sorry sorry" they finally said after calming down "I don't know why you decided to come when it's not your thing though"

"Them." I answered, looking over at the table my eyes were on two seconds ago. "I want to know their safe" I smiled a little as I saw Sadie laugh at something, such a pretty laugh and smile she had.

"Ah protective hm?" Shaun answered, a smile on his face as Masky had his arms wrapped around him.

"Exactly" I continued to watch them, Lye seemingly having disappeared to somewhere.

They say trusting your instincts can be a good thing and following what your gut says is even better. But I wonder if they would say the same thing if they saw what happened in a matter of only two seconds.

Blood had poured onto the floor, creating a pool that was practically becoming a river as it continued to gush out. Screams were becoming louder and underneath the sound of their screams you could hear the faint sounds of sirens. Was it an ambulance or was it a police car? Or maybe both? Hopefully it was both, it clearly needed to be. Eyes were darting around and I couldn't help but feel a pair or maybe more than a pair on me, although I was sure most of the eyes I felt on myself weren't really watching me but the scene in front.

My hands were covered in blood as they kept moving up and down, starting to feel a heart beneath them. "Please wake up." "Help! Someone!". Tears were somewhat creating another river. Who had done this? Who would think to do such an awful thing? Where were the police? Why was all this happening? Wasn't this supposed to be a night of fun, of enjoyment and entertainment?

The killer had to be found. They would find them right? "Look up." I heard a voice "look the killer in the eye" the voice continued. It scared me more than anything, why would I want to look such an evil person in the eye? Plus the voice sounded too psychotic for my liking, sure I was psychotic but I didn't sound that psychotic. I was extremely reluctant to do what the murderer had asked, reluctant to face the killer. Reluctant to face who had committed this awful crime.

But eventually I gave in. And once I did I saw a face that was awfully familiar. A face I would wake up and see every day. A face that I recognised more than anyone else ever could.

My own. Although it wasn't directly mine, it was still my mirrored self. And a heart was in my hand, a heart that no longer pumped. And I couldn't help but smile.

After all if anyone was going to touch my girl in the wrong way they deserved to die did they not? In my defence officers he was asking to be killed. And without a second thought I had disappeared to go comfort the girl who belonged to me and my boyfriend only.
