A CRIMINAL Is In Love With Me

I'm not giving up.

I smiled at Jason who winked at me. I sighed and Started my way towards there table.

"Um welcome to Local diner, What would you like to order?"

I watched Ace and his head snapped to my way. His eyes roamed my body then stared at me shocked.

"Um, i'll have a the black coffee, three sugars, no milk." Trance ordered winking at me. I smiled and written down the order down, I turned to Jason who was trying to keep back a laugh.

"I'll have the turkey grilled cheese sand which. Oh and a cup of pickles."

When Ace turned to him, I mouthed, 'Pickles?' Ace turned back to me and Jason nodded.

"And you sir?"

Ace watched me closely. "What is going on? Where's Your boss?"

"He is eating a dozen donuts in his house while he left us kind kids to serve you. Now is that what you will like to order because I am sorry but we can't cut him up and serve him as pork. We already got a warning for the mice running around here from the health department. Anything else?"

Jason smile widen. Ace brows burrowed before he placed a hand on his head. He closed his eyes and I almost touched his shoulders in worry. He stood up brushing past me.  I sighed and turned to Jason.

"Go on, he's slowly remembering."

I nodded and took a deep breath. I headed towards the direction he ran to and found myself in the back where the trash was. Ace was there holding his head. His eyes shot up to me.

"Ace..."

"I think I remember...." He mumbled. I let out a sigh of relief. Its working!

"What do you remember?" I ran to him and grabbed his arms. His eyes shot to mines and glanced at my hands on his. "Ace? What do you remember?"

"Nothing!" He snapped. "I forgot."

I groaned and threw the pad on the ground. "I'm not giving up Ace!"

He turned to me. "Well you should. I won't remember you nor of the stupid love time we shared. So just fucking give up!"

"NO!" I yelled. Sucking in the tears. I won't cry. I am stronger than this.

"We have a fucking child together! How do you want me to forget! If I wanted to forget you I wouldn't be here! I would of pulled the trigger! I wouldn't of contacted Jason nor do any of the shit I did just to get back here Ace! I wouldn't of done it. So don't tell me to give up on you because I would never do that in a million ye-"

His lips crashed on mines taking me by surprise, I snapped out of it when he held my neck pushing me closer. His tongue slipped it and I moaned into it.

I missed this. The taste of him and the way his hands feel against my skin. I tangled my hands into his hair loving the feeling.

I pulled apart breathing for air, and our foreheads rested against one another. Our breathing was heavy and his hands stroked my cheek,

"I'm not giving up Ace so if you want me to, then kill me."

No one. And I mean no one was so determined and insisted on doing something just for me. Watching her struggled to keep the tears in and rambling on how she would never give up on me made me just want to kiss her and I did.

Her lips was soft and her tongue warm. She tastes sweet like honey and chocolate. I felt tingles on my skin and I pulled her closer loving how she felt against me. Like she belonged.

She pulled apart and I reached to touch her cheek. It was soft and rosy, covered in little freckles.

"I'm not giving up Ace so if you want me to, then kill me."

I scoffed but chuckled. "I have a very deep feeling your never going to let me do that."

She stared at me then smiled. "Nope."

He was so small. Fragile. Delicate. I stroked his cheek and his eyes fluttered open. It was both green just one shade light that the other. His lips stretched out into a smile and I gasped.

"He smiled!" I said to Dawn excitedly. She ran over and laughed. "Oh Allaric." She whispered. Allaric looked over at Dawn and made a little noise.

"He's just so cute Isn't he?"

I nodded and Set him back down. Zara walked in and pushed me with her waist. "You guys go on, i'll Watch him."

I was about to protest when Dawn grabbed my hand. "Come on, I want to do something."

I followed her as she led me up the stairs and into a room. It was empty with the floor covered in paper and the walls white. I remembered this room. It was just a extra room and used to for nothing.

"I wanted to use this as Allaric's play room...So when he gets older..."

I glanced down at her and she smiled. Her red hair was in a ponytail with a yellow bandana. She was in blue overalls and a white shirt.

She let go of my hands and grabbed the brush that was in a bucket of blue paint. "How about blue and yellow?"

I watched her and she poured the paint and rolled it out in the roll brush. She stood up and turned to me.

"What?"

I shook my head. "Nothing." She crossed her arms. "Tell me!"

I laughed. "Nothing, just... Why did you stay?"

She looked taken back but shrugged. "I just did. Because I love you." She looked up at me and smiled. "Now come on, let's paint our son room."

I laughed and took a brush. I starting painting the wall when I felt something splash on my back.

I looked behind me, bring my shirt over in front of me. I looked up too see Dawn with a hand over her mouth and her eyes twinkling with amusement. "Oh my god it was a mistake, I-"

I dipped my brush into the Can and threw it at her. It landed on her shirt and her hair, on her cheek and her arms. She scoffed and I laughed.

We threw paint at one another and on the wall.

"Ace!" She squealed when I picked up the can and threw it at her. Some got on the wall behind her and mostly on her.

"What?" I asked faking my confusement. 

She glared at me. "Oh i'm so going to get you!" I ran and she ran after me, We ran out the room and down the stairs, trailing paint behind us.

Jason, Jazmine, Ansel and Trance were in the kitchen with a few other members of the Mafia.

Zara was holding Allaric and Sincere and when they heard Dawn yelling they looked up.

I ran into the kitchen behind Ansel. "Woah!"

"Ace you can't hind behind Ansel!" Dawn giggled and ran to me. I ducked and caught her, throwing her over my shoulders. She kicked and punched my back as I ran around in circles.

"ACE!" She squealed.

I laughed, when we fell onto the floor. 

We sat up and i tucked a piece of her blue hair behind her ears. Her laugh died down when she looked into my eyes.

"I'm not giving up either."
