Nicole's POV:

it's been a week since we're been in New York from Italy, much hasn't happened except alessandro letting me shoot some crazy guy in the basement who was trying to get information for the French

yeah that's still happening. apparently amber and lucas had a son who is know the leader of their mafia, it's funny that amber was trying to leave lucas for alessandro who she cheated on him with.

anyways, i shot him he's dead. now i don't have anything to worry about.

i redecorated my room because i hated all the white in the room. it has black interior like my apartment did and a black bed set matching with black out curtains. the bathroom also had black in it, black cabinets and shower walls i kept the original glass shower doors but put a black handle on it.

alessandro says it's "too dark" ironic coming from him. but that's how i like it and he's just going to have to deal with it.

alessandro knocked on my door and walked in my room. i said his name too many times. fuck

he pulled out a credit card and handed it to me. i gave him a weird look

"go buy yourself some stuff. you deserve it i also need to talk to you" he said sitting on the bed. weird

"um okay, what is it?" i said looking at him.

"well i wanted to get your opinion on putting you as one of the mafias assassins" he said looking back at me calmly

my eyes opened wide. how was i supposed to answer that? don't get me wrong i've always loved guns and shooting, but one i had no experience in being an assassin and two i'm not that good

"alessandro. love. darling. whatever i'm supposed to call you. what makes you think i'll be good at that? i don't even have half the skill that the assassins here. no way" i said looking at him like he was dumb. which in fact he was

"well nicole, that's why they make thing this called training that you would have to do to earn some of that skill, i'm not going to just take you on a mission and say here shoot that guy while all of my other men are on his ass. no. never" he said

okay well that makes more sense i guess. it doesn't sound like a bad idea but i would have to think about it.

"i'll think about it. i don't have a answer right away" i said shrugging my shoulders

"okay well here's my card, take it go buy whatever. your car is in the garage and enzo will be going with you" he said putting my hair behind my ear

"okay. thank you" i said smiling at him.

"be safe angel" he said

"i will" i said back

he nodded his head and bent down to kiss my forehead and walked out of the room. yes i still have feelings for him and i don't know if he does. i really don't want to find out either, i'm scared honestly. but if he does i would absolutely melt.

i wore a pair of jeans and black long sleeve shirt with a pair of doc martens. again. i grabbed my keys phone and alessandro's card putting it in my back pocket.

i walked downstairs seeing enzo standing there waiting for me. we walked down a long hallway before we got to the garage and opened the door. i saw my car and unlocked it from the key fob.

we got into the car and i drove because well it's my car. and i didn't want enzo driving it.

enzo and i talked during the whole car ride. mostly about what if's and if this didn't happen then what would, i liked the conversations enzo and i had. he was almost like my brother at this point, if something ever happened to him i don't know what i would do.

after a talking and driving for a little bit we stopped at a record store because i wanted some more. not that i needed anymore. i just wanted them.

i looked around for a little bit and found Deftones "around the fur" album and some more that i didn't have.

after getting the records that i wanted we checked out and i paid, we left the record store and went to the mall because i didn't have anything better to do.

we walked into victoria's secret. i could tell enzo was uncomfortable but he needed to get over it, it's normal

"enzo come on now stop being a child" i said laughing at him

"nicole this feels very weird" he said blinking at me

"oh whatever. it's not like you haven't seen this shit before, now come on" i said

he huffed at me and walked inside, he kept his eyes on the glittery floor which seemed to keep him more distracted than anything else.

after picking out a few sets and some perfumes i made enzo smell getting his opinion on. we checked out and left.

we left the mall and went back to the house because we got bored on the drive back home we talked about how alessandro wanted me to be on of the assassins.

"nicole i think you should really do it. i mean yeah you're going to have to train for it but you're really good at shooting and have great aiming skills" he said looking at his phone

"i mean yeah you're right but i don't know, if he the first female assassin for a huge mafia and it'll be different. i don't know" i said back sounding unsure

it sounded like fun but i just don't know how i felt about it. we got back to the house and the garage opened and i pulled my car into it turning it off. enzo and i stepped out and i grabbed the bags locking the door.

we walked back inside and enzo walked off to alessandro's office and i walked upstairs to put my stuff away. after putting it all away i walked back downstairs to give alessandro his card back.

i got to his office and heard people talking, i guess they were in a meeting so i waited. a few minutes went by and men were flooding out of his office. after they were all gone i walked in and saw alessandro pouring a glass of whiskey. classic

"here your card" i said touching his shoulder. he turned around and i placed it in his hand. he looked stressed but i wasn't going to ask any questions.

"thank you" he said looking at me. i nodded my head and started to walk off. alessandro followed behind me for some odd reason.

we walked upstairs to my room and i laid down on the bed while he walked in. he shut the door behind him and laid down beside me.

"tired?" i asked him brushing his hair to the side

"mhm hm" he groaned

i laid on his chest watching it go up and down, his breathing slowed down and he finally fell asleep. and soon enough i did too. we fell asleep for about an hour before he woke me up playing with my hair.

"we are going to dinner tonight, i made the reservation at 8. be ready by then, you don't have to wear a dress or anything. just something nice" he said calmly

"okay" i said waking up still. he was so comfortable to lay on but he moved my head. he had to go take care of some things at the warehouse, which i understood. he walked out of the room shutting the door softly behind him.
