The mafia leader loves me

Chapter 1 Marcello

That ladies and gents is Marcello Bagnasco

As I walk through the mall making sure to avoid the crazy teenagers, I pull a piece of my hair behind my ear, searching for one of my favorite stores.

Wet seal.

I walk in and quietly look around.

Until a girl who's probably in her very early 20's walks up to me and says,"Hi! Welcome to wet seal."

I shyly smile and say,"Hi, um I-I was wondering is you could help me look for an outfit for a party."

Her smile grows and she says,"Of course, c'mon hon."

I follow her and she pulls out a black skirt with see through lace at the end, a burgundy crop top,a black jacket with a gold zipper, a long goldish colored necklace, and brown boots.

I smile at the outfit and she says,"You like?"

I nod and she says,"The dressing room is on your right."

I say a quiet thank you and go into the dressing room.

I take off my leggings, oversized sweater, and vans.

I set them down and slip on the outfit.

I smile at myself, and finally actually feel pretty.

I slowly walk out and look at the full length mirror.

The woman comes back out and says,"You look beautiful!"

I smile shyly and say,"T-Thanks, I'll take this."

She smiles and says,"Great! Call me if you need me."

I nod and go back into the dressing room.

I take off the outfit and slip on my clothes.

I head to the cash register and pay.

I walk out the store, and head to the exit.

I jump into my car, and start driving home.

***********

"Mabel, I don't know about this party anymore."

Mabel sighs and says,"But Anne Marie, you need to live a little!! Plus you already got that cute outfit."

I nod and say,"Yes but there's a lot of people there,"

I push up my glasses and continue,"And you know about my social anxiety."

She nods and says,"I promise I'll be with you the entire time."

I sigh and nod.

She squeals and says,"Yay! Thank you Anne Marie!!"

I nod and wave her off.

She says,"So what do you think about my outfit?"

I look at her black dress that stops mid thigh, that has slits at the hips and a small v-line.
