Rose [ A Revenge Story ]

Lilly *

I sat at the bar of the club thinking over the meeting with Black. I was right to go to him, not many people from the underground could be trusted. Black could not be fully trusted.

"Mr Roberts" I nodded my head towards the man himself. The most well known man from the underground. Half dressed woman surrounded him as he sat at a table in The Pigs Eye. His eyes flashed with excitement then a small smirk cornered his lips. "Call me Black" he replied moving his hand towards the seat opposite him. I nodded my head taking the seat, he would surly get pissed if I refused and I did not want to deal with the drama that brought. "What can I help you with Rose?" So he knew who I was, who was I kidding everyone in the place knew me. Soon as I walked into the room all eyes turned to look at me. "I was hoping to talk to you somewhere more privet" I replied looking at the woman around him. He smiled at me but not a warm smile "very well" he clicked his fingers and the woman scampered of like trained dogs. I would have laughed if in any other situation but right now it was all about business. "Privet enough" he nodded at me. "It will do" I replied as I pulled an envelope out of my inside pocket. Sliding it across the table towards him he stopped it placing his hands on top. He lifted it up took a look inside and then looked back at me. "All the evidenced against you for the drug run that you got yourself busted for." His brows arched as he look towards me as he grasped the package. "Why give this to me" he questions sliding it into his jacket. " I want something in retune, that information is your but I was hoping you would be kind enough to help a girl out."  His smirk grew bigger as each word left my mouth "your place or mine sweetheart." His eyes racking over my body as he licked his lips. I was not put of  by his remark as he was not a bad looking man but that was not what I came for. "Not my intentions, in that envelope is a sheet with lots of numbers on it, it could be important or it could be nothing."  He pats his pocket then looked at me "see it done" I knew if anyone could find out what it meant it would be him.  I stood up from the table as he reached out and grabbed my hand "come back in two days, I will have what you need." I nod my head at him "two days" I reply as he lets go of my hand. I did not turn to look behind me as I walked out of that place.

So that leads me back to now, sitting at this bar nursing a glass of whisky. It was my day off so to speak, not that I ever had a real day off. But Tony tends to not bug me so much on Sunday's. Tommy leans on the bar in front of me eyeing my almost empty glass "want another?" "Why not" I smile up at him downing the rest of my drink wincing as I push the glass towards him. He shakes his head as he fills up the glass again sliding it over towards my open hand. "That bad huh" he says to me  "you have no idea" he laughs making me look up towards him. The smile that could make any girls legs weak breaks across his face. But not me, yes he is good looking and has his own presents about him. But he is just to innocent, having no idea what the world he stands in is really like.

"I have heard it all trust me, perks of the job" he smiles at me. "So what is it some guy, maybe work, could be parents." Tick tick tick but not in the way he is thinking. "Something like that" he smiles "want to talk about it I am all ears." I smile at him "maybe some other time" he nods his head as he gets called away by someone waiting for a drink.

I turn my back away from the bar drink in hand and lean against it. Looking at the people around me. I see Johnny walk trough the entrance along with the normal lot. A woman on his arm she is beautiful not one of the normal girls I see around. The way she carries herself with so much confidence, no doubt in my mind of who she is. He turns and whispers something in her ear. She don't look happy but she just nods, kisses his cheek and walks my way. I feel something inside my stomach, boiling, sick not liking the feeling at all. My eyes stay on him as he watches her leave then his eyes flicker to mine. A small cocky smirk forms on his lips but I did not look long enough to take much notice.
