Emeli

chapter 6

Alexander Grayson

I’m sitting in my living room I just finished painting Lexi’s toe’s a hot pink. Tonight she is sleeping over my parent’s house. My dad is pressuring me to join the family businesses as he likes to call it but I’m really not trying to. Who likes drugs, sex trafficking. And killing all the time it must get tiring. I’m finishing up my paper for my government class. I’m trying to figure out how to get to know Emeli more she’s been on my mind for a long time. “Lexi do you need to do anything before we go to the Grand house” I asked? “ can we get the princesses towels we saw at the store” she asked? “hmm, we will see you have to go make sure your rooms clean” I said. “okay” she said that and  ran off to clean her room. She did clean it so I did take her to the store.

I am dropping her off at my parents house. One thing I hate about going to my parents house is dealing with my father. “grandpa” Lexi said as she ran up to him and he picked her up. “how are you darling” he asked? “fantastic” she said than grabbed him by his face and gives him kisses. “go see your grandmother” my father said as he puts her down and she runs off. “did you have your fun, are you ready to takeover learn the ways of the business” he said.

 my father is  treacherously crazy and out of his mind. “dad I’m not changing my mind just deal with it, I don’t any part of it let the Gonzalez run shit I don’t care” I said. “Alexander Malachi Grayson  you are a Grayson you are Greek you listen to me when I say this you will follow whatever I set for you, you wanted to go to Yale fine we worked around that, wanted to raise your daughter, because your crack head baby momma is incapable of doing so you running the Triangle will only last for so long step up to the plate” my father said as he stepped in my space.

 “my two favorite man” my mother said as she walks into the room. She could feel the tension  “Alexander come help me I the kitchen” my mom said. “no mom I have to go to The Triangle” I said as my father and I are staring each other in the eye.  “Alexandria” I yelled. “yes, papa” she said as she ran into the room.

 “papa loves you I’ll see you tomorrow we will go to the restaurant you and I and have breakfast ” I said. “perfecto” she said then gave me a kiss on the cheek. “I love you” she whispered into my ear. “I love you more” I said then left and headed to the triangle. I got their everything was running good I want to chill with Emeli tonight i walk over to the blue room which is the club side of triangle. I walk over to the bar area. “Emeli let’s go hang out” I said.

 “I’m working” she said as she’s making a drink. “I’m the boss now I say your not” I said then smiled at her. She smiled back. “here you go sugar” she said to a girl then turned around to make another drink. “Emeli” I said in a funny voice. “Alexander” she said. “come on I need friend time” I said. “friend time” she said mocking me. I go behind the bar grab two bottles of Tequila and Rum. “what are you doing your not allowed to just take things” she said as she tried to take the bottles from me.

 “want to bet” I said than ran out from behind the bar. She chased after me I went all the way to the parking garage for employees. I run to my Lexus and I turn around their Emeli is. I turn her and we switch places she’s leaning against my car.  “your too much” she said he smile is so beautiful and at this moment I don’t care if she has a boyfriend I drop the bottles and grab her gently by her face and kiss her.

She kissed me back surprisingly then pushed me off of her. “no, no this can’t happen if we hang out tonight no more kissing” she said. “yes maim ” I said then opened my car door. We went back to my place. I have Alexandria’s stuff put away room is closed off. “wow nice condo” she said. “looks like a girl’s touch when decorating” she said. “my mother” I said than went to my kitchen. My phone starts ringing. I look at it it’s from the Grand house. “hello” I said.
