Lascivious
~ feeling or revealing an overt sexual interest or desire ~

—————

Something about tonight scares me. Actually, something about this whole situation scares me. My bother appears out of nowhere are not seeing him for 2 years, he's just casually in the mafia and I kissed the fucking boss. What happened to the sweet innocent life I used to live? I would wake up every morning, go to school and see my friends like every normal teenager would do. I went to secret parties and got drunk, I had a boyfriend and I still had my brother, who was just as naive as me. Now I'm going to balls with dangerous men, I'm going to be vanishing from my mother just like Alex did and I'm going to have my naivety taken away from me as I live under the same roof as people who have killed. Including my brother. I suppose it does freak me out slightly but I cannot stand to be around that house anymore. My mother and Paul will probably be too busy with the baby to even care that I'm gone. I bet Paul will be happy because I'm no longer there to be a 'smart mouth'.

We arrived just under an hour ago and I was shown to the room I was going to be sleeping in. It's quite simple and has a double bed in the centre of the room. I slept most of the journey here which was nice because it meant it felt a lot shorter than it actually was. I have 20 minutes before we Luci and I have to depart for the ball. I haven't seen Alex or even Luci since I arrived. Apparently Alex is our doing business and Luci is busy.

A woman, named Sofia, who doesn't look much older than me entered my room and is now helping me do my hair and makeup. When she arrived she brought a box in with her. She handed it to me so I could open it. When I did, a red satin dress was revealed. It's absolutely gorgeous. Sofia took it out of the box and hung it up so the creases would go. The dress had a v-neck and a side slit on the right side.

"I'm never going to be able to pull that off Sofia" I mutter as I gawk at the dress.

"Non essere ridicolo. Your going to look stunning" she reassured me. I still find it strange how most people here speak Italian, I don't understand much of it so i always go shy. I hate not being able to understand. At my old school there were these 2 girls that both spoke Russian and I'm pretty sure they were always bitching about me so one day I taught myself a few words and told them to shut up or I'll kill their families. They never even looked me again. Sofia takes a step back from me and just marvels at what she has done. "Bellissimo" she smiles.

I look up at myself to see that she has put my hair up so simply yet it looks so elegant!

I stand up and give her a hug to show my appreciation. I walk over towards the red dress and take it off of the hanger. I slide it over my body until the straps red over my shoulders. I just watch Sofia as she jumps up and down with joy. "You are going to be the prettiest girl there" she screeches in a very high pitched excited voice. I just roll my eyes at her as I walk towards the tall mirror hanging on the wall. My mouth instantly opens as I see myself standing there.
