~11~The Feelings(Alex's POV)

Alex's POV(Point Of View)

"What do you think?" She turned around with a smirk

How is she so beautiful?

But, she didn't just speak to me like that, no one does that

Except her says my subconscious

That is not okay

...To anyone who isn't her my subconscious supplies with a smirk

'Just shut up' I shut him out and focus on the stubborn beauty in front of me

"I told you not to come down" I say with my face back to being void of any emotion

She made me so mad without much effort

But I'm not even mad at her-okay, maybe a little mad at her-I'm mad at myself

Because why did I bring her here? Why does she have such an effect on me?

Why do I feel the need to protect her?

"So?" She shrugs " I told you to let me go, we both don't give two shits about what the other one says, what's new?"

The nerve of this woman

"Woah, most girls wouldn't even dare to look at you" Oliver says, making me even madder

"You're one in a million, Goldy" he says to her and I'm no longer mad when I see the smile that appears on her face

She's so beautiful, she really is one in a million

She's the first woman in years that has been able to get an emotion out of me

Well, except Miss Aguas but she is more of a man than most men out there.

She's the leader of the gang that killed my parents and took my sister which is the reason I'm running this gang

To get justice for my parents and to find my sister

She turns back to the guys and asks as if it's the most normal question "So what? Are you guys like the inner gang?"

The four look over her shoulder at me in surprise, mirroring my own surprised look

By now, they probably think I told her

"Don't answer that, the fact that you're so comfortable in his house answers it...So is this like the normal gang we hear about?"

She answers her own question and moves on to the next, leaving all of us standing there in shock- well, three of us, Matt looks pissed

After a moment taken to recover from our shocked state, Xavier is back to his amusing self as he answers " Depends"

"On?" Goldy asks in equal amusement

Is this a joke to them?

"What type of gang would you call normal?" Oliver answers for him with a little less amusement

She looks to Matt as she says " The one where Matt would be in charge of the computer stuff like hacking and all and..." she draws the last word

What the fuck? She just left us speechless again

She looks to Owen "Owen would be the second in command"

"Wow" the twins say in unison

The smile that breaks out on Goldy's face brings me unexplained happiness as my lips curve upwards in a small smile of my own.

"So, I'm right aren't I?" She asks, even though it's obvious..she knows she's right but the twins go ahead and answer

"Yup" "Totally" they reply at the same time

"That was fun, now I need ice cream and I need one of you guys to help me find the kitchen" Goldy announces

"Hey, what about us?" The twins protest

"You guys are the amusing ones that keep the darkness from clouding their lives" she says and I hate to admit it but she's right

The twins really keep darkness from swallowing the rest of us.

We've all had a dark past that hunts our present, threatening to cloud our lives. It's why we're brothers.

Owen furrows his brows "hey" but he and I both know it's the truth while the twins have this proud smile

She chuckles for a bit, the sound making my lips curve in a happy smile

I expect her to say what she thinks I am in the gang but no...it seems she's done with that

"But seriously, I really want ice crea" she suddenly stops and turns around to face me "You do have ice cream right? What kind of weirdo doesn't have ice cream in their house?"

I don't know why but it makes me mad that she left me out

"Oh so now you remember me" I grumble and I don't even recognize my voice, it's almost a whine

She lets out a loud gasp as her hand flies to her chest and her mouth drops open in fake shock "Are you jealous?"

And the way she says it, it just makes me mad but what makes me even madder is that she looks so cute doing it

"You did forget to mention him just now," Oliver supplies with wide, amusing eyes and I send him a glare

"Oh dear, Alex" she shrugs unapologetically "I'm so sorry, I could do it now, just to make you happy"

"Okay, I like her" Owen announces and send him a glare not because of what he said but because the way she smiled at him just makes me mad

"Alright, who's helping me find the kitchen" Goldy asks, totally ignoring my whole angry expression

"I'll go" says Oliver

"I'll come too" Xavier follows

"Great let's go" she beams and all the anger is washed away

Why was I even angry again??

"I'll come with cos we can't trust these two with anything" Owen volunteers but we all know he just wants ice cream

I watch as they all walk away leaving me and Matt alone

But I couldn't look away so I kept watching her until Goldy was no longer in sight

Matt clears his throat really loudly so I look to him and there was this vibe I was getting from him

I don't think he likes Goldy so much

"So?" He asks

"So?" I reply

"Who is she?"

"That's what I want you to find out" I shrug

"Do you at least know her name?" His brows pull together in a frown

"Nope" I reply nonchalantly

"Then why? Why did you bring her here? Of all places, Alex?" He asks the question I have no answer to

"I don't know" I reply honestly

I don't know why I brought her here but I just had to

I couldn't leave her cos I have to protect her

I know, it's weird cos the real danger is with me but I want her close to me... and I don't even know her

"You don't know? You're risking everything for a girl? A girl you know nothing about...not even her fucking name" he raised his voice a bit

"Then find out her name, that's your job isn't it?" I shrug calmly

"Alex, we don't know her, how can you trust her so much?" He runs his through his hair in frustration

"I didn't say I trust her" I reply and move to go sit on the sofa "But since you brought it up, yes I do trust her and I know she's harmless"

"And what if she's not? What if she's working for Aguas' " he says walking to sit next to me

"She's not" I say simply

"How do you know?"

"I just do" I reply calmly then I get up to go to my study to try to get some work done

After walking a few steps, I turn back around and notice the way his mouth is left opened like he's about to say something

So, I cut him off before he even started

"Find out everything you can about Goldy" I say then turn back around to keep going

"Hey, Matt, I know you're just looking out for us but I assure you Goldy's not a threat to us" I say, when I stop moving but don't turn around.

As I walk away from Matt, I start thinking of the golden girl I literally kidnapped to live with me.

She's all I seem to think of lately, the reason no work gets done around here anymore

I need to get her out of my head

She's not even here and I'm still frustrated by her

Ugh, this is so annoying
