Hired By A Mafia Boss

Chapter 12

AVA'S POV

..."I think Mr. Black likes me."

"No freaking way!" Draya and Kenny said in unison again. These two were always fighting but always managed to say the same things.

I looked at them seriously. Kenny looked like he had not had a haircut in two weeks, and Draya looked exhausted from work. With everything happening, I was missing out on their lives. "You know what, forget about what I said, tell me all that's been going on."

"Don't be silly. How do you expect us to forget about what you just said?" Kenny asked like it was the most stupid thing he'd ever heard. "Go on, spill. Tell us what made you come to that conclusion. I want the naughty details. Have you guys done it yet? How was it? Is he really big down there?" Kenny was going on and on. I swear, he was insane.

I closed my eyes. "No way. Don't be such a pervert."

"That's basic stuff sweetie." Kenny was at it again. Oh God, how did he ever end up being my cousin.

Draya spanked Kenny's head playfully. "Shut up stupid, you know Ava won't do that. At least not now. Come on Ava, tell us what makes you think your boss likes you. I know I said it, but I was just saying it." She said and giggled. "Spill the beans."

Okay, this two always made life easier for me so I told them exactly what happened.

"For fucks sake Ava, didn't I tell you not to make him know?" Draya was practically yelling while she face palmed.

I covered my face with the cushion. I was ashamed of going against her advice. I put on my best puppy dog face and a silly smile. "Sorry.... I guess."

Draya looked at me in disbelief. "Sorry won't help, little vixen."

"Can you two just shut up? Clearly Mr. Vaughn has the hots for you. And he cares a lot too. But any kiss on the forehead sends out the message 'I want you.'"

Draya gave him a serious look. "You really are stupid. It means 'I care for you.'"

As the two kept on arguing about what it meant, I suddenly felt something strange inside. I knew this guy was dangerous, yet I didn't want to be away from him. Actually, I enjoyed his scary presence. I was falling for my boss. And I was falling hard.

"Wake up lazy baby." That was mom's voice. It seemed like she'd pulled back the curtains as the light seemed to be blinding me.

Oh mom! I turned around and covered my face, but mom had different plans. She pulled my comforter and pillow away. "Mom!" I whined but she did not care.

"Get your fine ass up sweetie, we're going grocery shopping. Its Saturday." She said excitedly. I could tell she was in a good mood because she never spoke that way but that wasn't going to make me wake up. I needed the sleep after staying up late, thinking about my sexy boss.

"No..... Just go alone." I said tiredly. What is wrong with moms? They're always so energetic.

"I've been working all week sweetie; I just want to spend some time with you. Didn't you miss me?" She asked in an extra sweet voice

Way to prick my conscience mom. I huffed. "Fine. I'd be ready in an hours' time." I said and rolled my eyes.

She shook her head. "Thirty minutes."

"Forty-five." I said back.

She shook her head again. "Thirty minutes."

"Fine. Just leave already." And with that, she left my room. What a way to start my Saturday.
