ROSE P.O.V
"How!?" I exclaim. I hear talking in the back round.
"Oh nevermind false alarm she's in the basement dealing with him" He says calmly.
I exhale, "fuck you" I say to Eric who earns me a glare from Alex at my language.
"Well I would but Alex would kill me" he jokes.
Alex stands their angry and annoyed that he can't hear the conversation.
"They're fine Mya and him are in the basement she's tying up loose ends" I say to him.
He sighs in relief,"Don't leave my side".
We are sitting at the table with Katie talking about the dresses, until I hear "Now it's time for the man who were celebrating this for Alex Ridden to say a few words" a lady in a black pencil skirt and a grey blouse on says excitedly like she waited all her life to say that.
Alex gets up, kisses me on the cheek and goes on stage. "I don't usually do speeches...but I have my girlfriend here tonight so she's my motivation..." He explains.
Everyone looks at me and claps I give them a small smile, still not used to the spotlight being on me he continues his speech honestly I zoned out, my ears couldn't take the talk of charts and business.
I still worry, are they safe at the house? I ask the waiter for some wine, he comes back with a bottle and pouring it in the glass cup.
"Here ya go" he says nervously .
"Thanks".
I look on stage Alex is wrapping up his speech when the man I saw earlier, jimmy walks on stage.
Alex glares because the beverage choice I shrug putting it up and doing an invisible cheer and drink it.
Everybody notices and laughs. "I guess your not a fan of your girlfriend drinking" jimmy half-jokes.
"Not at all because I'll be babysitting a 3 year old all night" Alex jokes.
Everyone laughs.
"My darling angel put it down" Alex says his mouth still to the microphone. His tone is calm and collected, he smiles ear to ear at me, but his eyes blaze with fury. He wasn't asking me he is showing me that is my last warning before he completely loses it.
I put it down and smile showing my teeth. Picking up the glass of water and sipping it.
"You too are adorable" jimmy states, while Alex walks off the stage to take his seat.
"I'm going to deal with Salem first then definitely deal with you when we get home" He whispers dangerously in my ear still smiling.
My heart races. This is going to be a long night.
When e get to the house, the bodyguards were in the kitchen, Mya and Katie are casually sitting down on the stool drinking wine out the bottle. Eric flips through channels on the tv.
"What happened?" I ask it's way too calm in here.
"She killed him" Eric shrugs.
"She did what?!" Alex's voice booms through the house.
"It was a accident, I had the gun in my hand and he was in the chair and he...we...it shot him" Katie's voice says fast.
"You killed him?" I ask her.
"By accident " she replies.
"He'd wind up dead anyway, its too late now" Katie shrugs.
"Oh well" I shrug going upstairs to change.
"What do you mean oh well" Alex says angrily.
"You can't bring him back to life there's nothing to do now, plus his little friends can't come after us because of your contract correct?" I ask.
"Yes" He mumbles
"What's wrong?" I asks, he hiding something I can see it in his eyes.
"look at me" I demand.
He looks at me "Nothing I can't handle".
I stare at him intensely screw this I get the bottle out Mya's hand and pour it in a empty cup and drink it.
I walk past him and up the stairs slamming my door. He never tells me anything and it's stressing me out, but fuck it that's fine by me. I can handle shit own my own too.
I take off my dress and underwear then get in the shower.
I walk downstairs in my grey sweatpants and a regular black tee. Alex,Mya,and Katie are in the dining room watching us. Alex looks at me and stands up. "Where do you think your going this late?" Alex asks me.
"Out" I say grabbing my car keys from off the counter.
"Out where?" Alex says now annoyed and trying to control his temper.
"Out" I repeat I walk towards the door.
Alex walk towards me and grabs my arm. "Rose no". I yank my hand free out his hold, "I will do what I want" I say opening the door and slamming it.
Not even 5 seconds later I hear the door open. "What the hell is your problem?" He growls.
. "You want to know what my problem is! You don't open up to me, you don't tell me anything! Not about your past not about what the fucks going on...nothing!" I yell at him I stomp towards him fast until I can feel his breath on my face.
"Rose it's for your safe-" I interrupt him.
"Don't you dare give me that bullshit! Need to know only cramp, a relationship is supposed to be a 2 sided thing Alex!"
"You don't tell me anything about you" He argues.His vein on his forehead popping out.
"That's because you don't fucking ask asshole, and you know about my life" I reply.
"Because all the questions I have are personal" he says.
"I'm your girlfriend Alex, not a fucking associate you can ask questions! so until you tell me what the fuck I want to know then I'm now your fucking associate" I snarl.
"I will Rose...through time" He says his eyes pleading with mines.
"What happens now since Salem is dead?" I ask leaning against the car. He gets quiet.
"Fuck you" I say opening my car door.
Alex looks frightened he's looking behind me, at my car.
"Rose don't move" He warns.
I roll my eyes "Screw you".
"Rose I'm begging you walk away from the car slowly" He pleads not looking at me I hear him mumbling "15...32...9". I'm confused "Just don't close the-" I close the door on instinct, "Run to me. NOW!" I run as fast as I can until I hear a deafening noise and the smell of burnt rubber. I can barely see anything. I look around my vision clearing up, I'm on the ground I can't move the sound pierced through my ears again. I smell burnt flesh.
I feel Alex dragging my limp body on me tears streamed down his face.
That's the last thing I see before I loose all consciousness.
