He Needs Me (Wattys 2020)

7

"Storm you look so fucking good" Ray yelled as I slid into the backseat beside him uncomfortably.

" you guys don't look so bad either" I smirked, Ray scoffed at my compliment as Finn out of the parking lot. I really hope we're not going to be there for too long.

The longer I stay in Andrei' presence the more I'm going to want to kill him and I'm not trying to go to prison for murder in all honesty.

After what he did to dad he deserves no respect from me at all, no one can hurt him. Andrei thinks he's untouchable but for me he's not, once this jobs over I'll be decking him in the face.

Around 5 minutes later we reached the other side of London, the rich side. The wealth gap is absolutely massive, seconds ago estates and 1 bedroom council houses covered the streets and now there's a house every few minutes bigger than the whole estate.

How could one be so rich and not care for the people with nothing, I can't imagine myself being like that. Well I don't think I could speak when I've never been in such a position.

What if I when I'm rich I no longer care, there's a chance. I hope I don't.

" Storm let's go"

Staring at the building in front of us I held in a gasp, are you kidding me. I do not have the money for this!

"we're going to dinner in the Dildo" I mumbled following the boys, that's what we've always called the estate. They really should have made a different shape. Finn motioned for me to walk in between him and Ray as we entered the building confidently.

"Yes Storm, best behaviour please" Finn said like a parent lecturing his child. Rolling my eyes I nodded my head trying not to strop as I walked.

" Guys are you ready to plan the biggest heist in 2018?" Ray asked excitedly, Finn nodded whilst I groaned. Not that I don't want to do the heist I just don't want to face Andrei.

" I'd prefer not to work with Andrei" I muttered turning to Ray, I understand why he is excited, we are going to steal from the bloody Louvre. If we manage to complete the mission it'd be the biggest heist after the Gardner museum.

Maybe I should be excited, ignore mister Jabal and do something awesome. Once the missions completed I will pay him off and live a happy life. Then there's no reason whatsoever for him to keep in contact with dad or bother him.

" be happy Storm, we finna be RICH"

God, It's like he wants to be caught before we even make a move.

" shut up Ray, he's there" Finn stated confidently, I straightened my back and strutted with the boys into the restaurant, confidence is key baby.

" gentleman and lady, welcome" turning towards the voice a smile made its way into my face, an old man stood behind the desk with a cute grin plastered on his lips, he looked adorable.

" hello sir we're here to meet with Mr Jabal"

The cute old man flicked through a sheet before grinning widely, grabbing a few menus he motioned for us to follow. This place is stunning, gold decorations splashed along the black walls, tinted lights add to the mystery of the place.

'Imagine the beauty and mystery of India, the magic of Pakistan, the excitement of Dubai, the history of Egypt and the spirit of Thailand.'

Southall Travel, seriously Storm! Now is not the time.

" Storm, take a seat" the strong voice echoed around me.

I was too distracted by the atmosphere I forgot where we were, in the Devils presence.

Ray and Finn were already seated on the black leather seats, locking gazes with Andrei I plastered a fake smile on my lips. He's rocking a navy blue suit with no tie showing a little chest, his hair styled perfectly. Damn, I had to stop myself from drooling continuously.

" sure thing Jubilee, where's the boss?" I asked mockingly, sitting down I sat up straight before staring back at him. His blank face was no longer blank, anger took over, awesome.

" I'm the boss and sitting right next to me is my father "  He seethed placing his clenched fist on the table, oh damn, staring at the man with more grey hair on his fingers than on his head I held my hand out to shake which he did, he's old as hell. He probably knew Adam and Eve. What is wrong with me?!

" your blind for a thief eehira" excuse me?!

" you act like a dick for a man that doesn't have one"
