You awoke with a cold sweat coating your body.....
2:30 am, you read on your phone eon the bed-side night stand.
You sighed in frustration.
Today you had to talk to The Boss about Luciano....
Would The Boss even care if (f/n) died?
It was a risky bet, but if worse came to worse, you would steal from your intimidating superior to save (f/n).
She had stood by you, defended you, and accepted you like no one else had.....
Time to give a little something back.
You were separated from your thoughts when a groan sounded from the floor beside your bed.
Startled, you kicked the figure below in the head.
"OW, WHAT THE FUCK!?!?!" Was the persons response.
Oh right, you made Al sleep on the blow-up mattress. You didn't want to sleep together yet.....
"Oh! Sorry Al!" You apologized to your .... well you weren't really sure what you were.
He said he loved you.....
You loved him.....
But... nobody said anything about hooking up....
You had to be sure.
"Al...." You said quietly.
"Whats up, doll face?" Came his suave voice, making you smile.
"D-do you love me?" You stuttered out.
"..." He was quiet for a moment, you're heart almost stopped... what if it was just a joke..... what if it wasn't real.... what if he lied...
Anger started to boil in your blood, but before you started a rant, his voice came out soft and soothing...
"(y/n) I love you Doll, and every time I see you, I just want to hold you in my arms and never let go. You're the light that fills all the little dark places in my heart. I love you and I don't want to lose you because my life has been better since I met you....."
You knew that Al wasn't one for a sappy kind of love, but this wasn't sappy. From the tone of his voice, to the way he gazed at you with sincerity in his eyes, you could tell this was the sincere love that has been only rumored to exist in movies....
Tears pricked at the edges of your (e/c) eyes.
He plopped down onto your bed and you crawled into his lap.
He held you in his warm embrace while your thoughts kept sleep at bay.
He smelled of the scent of honeysuckle floating on the wind on a warm summer evening.
You wanted to stay here forever, here, in his arms, where it was safe, no Luciano, no Boss, no friends in mortal danger.
When sleep finally beckoned you, preyed yourself from Al's embrace and got under you covers.
You tugged on Al's shirt, inviting him next to you.
He crawled in next you.
Your body fit perfectly into the curve of his.
Your feet intertwined under the blankets, his nose nuzzled into the crook of your neck and you felt his breath on your skin.
"I love you...." You whispered quietly.
He wrapped a muscled arm around you to make sure no one stole you from his arms.
The both of you fell into a blissful sleep.
~
This time-skip is brought to you by sleep...
~
You awoke well rested.
Al's arm was still around you, but you were facing him now.
Your forehead was resting on his chest, you were enveloped in his scent yet again, but you didn't protest.
Your moment of serenity was crushed by thoughts of (f/n) who was going to die if you didn't get the information.
You pried yourself from Al's vice-like embrace and shook him awake.
"Al...." No response
"Al!" You said louder, but still no response...
"AL!!!" You yelled as loud as you could while shaking him, but still..... no response
You walked down to the kitchen and filled up a bucket of ice cold water and walked back upstairs...
*SPLASH*
"AHHHH!!!! WHAT THE FUCK!!!!!??????" yelled a very agitated Al, who was now soaking wet.
"Sorry, but you wouldn't wake up." You said in a matter-of-fact way
You started to walk back downstairs to start breakfast when a pair for soaking wet arms wrapped themselves around your waist, keeping you stationary.
Al's head lowered to your ear to whisper:
"You're not very nice," he says with a seductive grin.
"You're one to talk." you replied
"Hey, I could be nice if I tried." he says, taking offense.
"Hmm." you say as you tap your chin. "Say something nice, then."
"You're really hot." he whispers into your ear, sending chills down your spine. (A/N and other sensations in other places ;P Omigod I'm fucked up...)
You smile, "I like this 'nice' thing." You say before releasing yourself from his soggy hold.
You made your way downstairs and made breakfast consisting of a vegan breakfast sandwich:
English muffin, soy vegan sausage, bell pepper, vegan shredded cheese, hot sauce, vegan butter, and a pinch of black pepper.
The two of you sat down and enjoyed your meal after Al got out of the shower.
You engaged in small talk, avoiding the subject of (f/n) and Luciano.
After you got ready, you opened the door of your bedroom to find Al standing right there.
"(y/n), What are you going to to about (f/n) and Luciano?" He said in a serious tone.
"Im going to talk to my Boss, and if he doesn't give me the info.... I'll get it another way. I will make sure that (f/n) comes out of this alive, and preferably not missing any limbs."
He chuckles and pulled you into a hug.
The two of you stint there at the entrance of your bedroom until you realize that time is not on your side. If The Boss doesn't give you what you need you're going to have to think of an alternative method to get what you want.
"Al, you can't come with me when I get the stuff." you state simply
"Why not?" he asks confused.
"Because my Boss knows who you are, and that you're with Luciano."
"Oh... then I won't be seen, you can't shake me off, doll face." he responds
Seeing that you couldn't reason with him you let him drive you to the warehouse. He gets out about 2 blocks away from the building and walks the rest of the way.
You park your car in front of the ominous building. Images of the blood puddles and the lifeless body from your last visit here, flash through your mind.
You shake off the feeling of dread and open the rusted doors.
The Boss was in his usual spot, at the desk that looked out of place, smoking, yet another, expensive looking cigar.
"Ah! (y/n)! I've been expecting you. Did you get what I wanted?" He says in his trademark intimidating tone.
"Yes, and no..." you say sheepishly.
"What do you mean, and where is (f/n)?" his voice was filled with less happiness and more anger and confusion.
"S-she... well... L-luci... umm.." You were having trouble forming sentences and words
"SPIT IT OUT (Y/N)!!!" his voice bellowed throughout the warehouse, shaking you to the bone and making you jump in surprise.
"She was take captive by Luciano, and is being held captive for a ransom. She is possibly being tortured."
You say in a much calmer voice.
He stayed quiet for a moment, contemplating the situation.
"What does he want for her?" he says calmly, keeping his seething anger at bay.
"All the information about him and his gang that we have." you replied in the same calm tone.
He was silent again, debating (f/n)'s life over precious information.
"(Y/n... you know I can't do that, I love (f/n) as much as you do a-"
You cut him off saying "Apparently not, because you don't even care if she dies over a few fucking pieces of paper!" You cover your mouth, your eyes open with surprise at your sudden outburst.
"Get out..." he says calmly, so sign of restraint in his voice, but somehow it scared you more.
"No, I'm sorry, please!" You tried pleading
"Get out (Y/n)..." he said again.
"Please!" Tears were starting to fall
He just stood up and walked to the back room while you fell to your knees, you face was buried in your hands.
You could hear a slight commotion coming from the back room, but you didn't pay attention.
"Hey doll face, why'r you cryin'?" Came the voice you had come to adore so much.
"Al!" you looked up in surprise
"I couldn't get it.." you looked back down at your shaking hands, as if waiting for what you needed to suddenly appear there.
"I know, it's ok, doll. I got you covered." He said reassuringly
He held out his hand to help you up and you reluctantly took it.
He lead you to the back room.
"Al.... we can't go in here..." you said
"Fuck it." he said nonchalantly
He brushed back the rubber curtain panels to reveal a narrow hallway.
Rust was gaining the walls, or maybe it was blood...
Stains on the floor, you knew for sure, were blood, lead down the hallway to an iron door.
Your hand was still firmly held by Al, who lead the way down the dimly lit hallway.
He pushed through the large door to show 3 dead body guards, large burly ones at that. and in the middle of the lifeless bodies sat The Boss, tied up in sturdy looking rope, his mouth duck taped.
"And this is why you guys are number 2." Al said boastingly while holding up 2 fingers.
You held back a gasp of surprise and instead smirked at the scene.
The Boss glared at you menacingly.
"Where is the info?" you asked him calmly, surprising even yourself.
"Ibl mneber bel gyu!" he tried to answer through the tape across his mouth.
You swiftly ripped the duck-tape off his face, leaving a red mark across his cheeks.
"I'll never tell you, traitor!"
"Well, I might have to go all 'Luciano' on you if you don't talk, Mister." You said playfully
Al leaned against a wall and stifled small laughs at the scene before him.
"Ugh, fine, I was seriously debating giving the file to you anyway. I love (f/n), like a daughter even." he gave in.
"Where is the file then?" You asked, with more seriousness in your voice.
"Go to the file cabinet in the far left corner..."
You walked around the dim room, following his directions.
"Open the drawer on the top, and go to the very back, it should be there."
You pulled out a red folder and opened it, it contained what you needed so you closed the drawer and mad your way back to The Boss and Al.
"Well thanks for the help." You said.
"Aren't you going to release me now?" He asked, expectantly
"How about.... No? Yeah! I like that decision best! But thanks for the suggestion though!" you said cheerfully, now that you had what you wanted.
You turned around and Al linked his arm with yours and you confidently made your way out of the building and to your car, folder in hand, while The Boss yelled after you.

~this time-skip is brought to you by a drive~

You soon found yourself driving past the park where you met Al, fond memories of the catch game you played with him, flooded you mind.
Al noticed where you were as well and said
"Wanna pitch for me, Doll face?"
The same question escaped his lips at your first meeting.
"Sure, why not." You responded
So you parked your car and the two of you, hand in hand, made your way to the baseball field.
3 middle school looking boys surrounding a smaller scrawny looking kid occupied the field. They were pushing him around and calling him names.
You and Al just couldn't have this.
"You got this, Doll face." Al said with a smirk as he tossed you his infamous bat.
You winked at him cutely and made your way to the burly looking boys, picking on the other kid.
"Hey boys!" you said sexily while leaning one hand on the bat.
"dude look, its a hot chick!" one said excitedly, averting their attention front he other kid.
You were wearing a black t-shirt with yellow trim, it was loose on your slight frame. Frayed denim short-shorts covered your lower half. You were still wearing your black vintage Clubmaster sunglasses from the ride in the car.
"HEY CHICK! I DARE YOU TO KISS ME!" one of the boys yelled out.
You chuckled and said "I would if you weren't so naughty, beating up that poor kid over here." You said while striding sexily towards the bullied kid.
"This one's on me." You said to him.
You planted a small kiss on his lips.
"oh god." He said as if walking on air.
he then stumbled backwards "Thanks lady!" He said while stumbling away.
"HEY CHICK, NOT A GOOD MOVE!" A boy yelled at you from behind.
"Oh, now you think you own me!" You said pretending to be offended as a hand fluttered to your chest.
"Course I do! I'm a boy, and you're a girl." He said as a mater of fact.
This pissed you off.
"So, the girl is supposed to entertain the boy right?" you asked cutely
"Sure!" He said, probably assuming this was going 'somewhere'
You picked up the bat and brought it down with deadly force onto his foot that was merely covered by a flip-flop.
He screamed in agony, "AHHHHH, OH GOD, HELP!!!!"
The other boys ran off, leaving their friend to fend for himself.
You silenced the boy's cries for help with a hard kick to the stomach.
"Oh, don't cry dear!" You said as he doubled over in pain
"Just make sure I don't see you or your rascal friends here ever again, or you'll have something worse than death comin' your way!" You warned in a cheerful voice while peering into his face over your sunglasses.
You slung the now bloody bat over your shoulder.
While walking back to Al you yelled behind you "Don't you get into anymore trouble, kay dear!" You said to the now limping boy.
You got back to Al and as your hands met in the exchange of handing the bat back to him, he grabbed your wrist and pulled you into him and pressed his lips against yours in a rough kiss.
His hand rested on your lower back, keeping you in place, but when the two of you needed air, he finally released you.
"I wanna touch all the bases, and hit a home-run with you, doll face." He said in a low, husky, whisper.
A warm feeling spread through your body at the tone of his voice.
"Maybe you'll even 'come in' with a trophy." You whispered back
A low growl sounded in the back of his throat at your suggestive comment.
You were starting to see where this was going, but you really wanted to play, you practiced after all.
"Well, that was fun." You said while breaking away from Al.
"I get to bat today ok!" You called back to him as you headed to the home plate.
His face was agape as you pulled away, but it slowly morphed into his signature smirk.
"Whatever you say, doll!" He yelled back to you
The two of you played until you looked at the time on your phone.
It read 4:30, you had played for 4 hours without a break, your stomach was growling, you realized you hadn't had lunch.
"AL! I WANT FOOD!!!" You yelled to him from the home plate
"ME TOO!!!" he yelled back at you.
So hand in hand the two of you at at the same place you had lunch together the day you met.

It was starting to get late, it was approaching the time you were to meet Luciano and exchange info for (f/n)'s life.
It had been brooding at the back of your mind for the whole day, but you didn't want to bring it up and ruin your time with Al...
You had fun, after all.
You sat on the couch going though the file with Al, biding your time until the dreaded exchange was to take place.
