HE'S MINE

ALEX

I walked into the bar, scanning the room for Ellis,the bar was bustling with people, the sound of laughter and music filling the air. I made my way through the crowd,my eyes looking for that one familiar face,I spotted him behind the bar,my heart skipped a beat,his eyes sparkled as he laughed with a customer,I couldn't help but feel Jealous,I made my way over to him " hey" he said when he saw me and I lean in to kiss him , he's mine and I wanted everyone to know that " that wasn't necessary" he said shyly and I smiled " I missed you" I said with a smirk as I turned to see the customer who had a look of disappointment on his face .

Ellis went back to serving the customers while I sat and watched him, even if we haven't added a label on our relationship,I felt at ease and so happy to have him in my life , this is what I had been missing,the sense of normality in my life, I'd been so caught up in my own world to the point I forgot I was human , I've never felt the feeling of having someone who truly cared about me,my whole life I was told to be this and that,a life full of competition and power lust.I glance over at Ellis who was laughing with a group of regulars,he turned to me and smiled ,I felt a sense of pride knowing I was one of the reasons he was smiling.

As the night drew close,the bar slowly became empty ,Ellis came over to me and lean in close " am glad you came tonight" he said he's voice low and husky " me too" I said and stole a kiss " I wish I could stay the whole night" I said " why won't you!" he asked " got a little bit of work" I said " can't it be done at my place" he asked " no, it's very urgent" he nodded in understanding, I know lying isn't good for our relationship but I'm not ready to introduce Ellis to that side of me . I had a client to meet and I needed to do it immediately before anyone or Rodrigo get to him. After Ellis shift I dropped him at home and drove off.

I walked out of Castro driveway the next morning, feeling excited and accomplished,I had successfully striked a deal with him, having Castro as a partner will be really beneficial, after a stressful night,I knew exactly where I wanted to be and I headed there immediately,I arrived at Ellis apartment , pulled into the driveway ,I got out of the car and walked up to the door Ringling the bell ,once he opened the door,I rapped my arms around him " what are yo------" I didn't let him finish and I shut him up with a kiss " you really can't miss a chance" he said after breaking the kiss " yeah" .we spent the morning together talking , laughing ,it was a great way to spend a day ,as the morning wore on I knew I had to go, it's been days since I last checked on my men and I needed update. Walking out the door,I knew Ellis was curious but decided not to ask .

As I drove,I couldn't shake off the feeling that I was being followed ,I looked at my rearview mirror but I couldn't see anything out of the ordinary, maybe I was being paranoid ,as I turned a corner,I caught a glimpse of a black Sedan and it looked like it was trying to keep a distance ,I felt adrenaline rush through my body,I was being followed and I knew it. U continued to drive, trying to loose the car in traffic but no matter what I did,it seem to stay with me, whoever was driving is someone very skilled and very smart and I needed to be two times smarter,I pulled into the safehouse feeling a sense of relief, whoever that person was,I was going to find him and find out who was behind it.
