Chapter 2

Lucy

I was working behind the till as always in the bodega when one of the men that always comes in made his appearance again, this time it was the man that was 6.2 feet2feet, dark brown hair and the darkest eyes I’ve ever seen, he had his custom suite on like always. I watched him as he walked around but his eyes were was on me the whole time. I wasn’t imagining things he was watching me. I decided to look away maybe if I stop looking at him, he will stop looking at me. Or I was just fooling myself by if I don’t see him, he won’t see me. I was busy on my flip phone when I saw a shadow standing over me. I looked at him and at the chocolatec bar it took him 20 minutes to get “Is that all?” I asked sarcastically. “Yes, and your name please.” I was getting fed up with them asking me my name the whole time do they think one day I will tell them something different. “You know what maybe you should tell me your name.” I thought he wasn’t going to answer me “It’s Nico, nice to meet you……” He was waiting for my name “For the last time my name is Lucy Smith” Can you believe he had the audacity to ask me “Are you sure?” “I think I’m very sure. $5 please.” He took out the note and give it to me but this time he made sure he touched my hand, which was weird what was weirder is the electricity that went through my body when we touched. He must have felt it to because his eyes got big and then he ran out of the bodega like I had a desease or something.

My day went down hill from there on out I had rude customers and my boss was a dick;, I might have felt the way I did because I didn’t have money for food it was that time of the month where I didn’t have money for food and I was hungry and grumpy. When my shift was eventually over, I walked home, I still had the feeling that I was being followed but I shook that off yet again, “Why would anyone follow you?” I asked myself. When I got at home and open the door, I found my roommate on the coach riding a stranger like he was a cowboy. “Lucy!” she screamed at me. “Living room, common space Lizzy.” I said sarcastically but she didn’t stop, I was really not in the mood to watch my roommate ride this guy. In fact, I might just get jealous because it was a long time since I had sex. But right now, I need to scratch in all my cupboards and look for a lost chocolate bar or ramen or anything. It felt like I was going to die I know I was dramatic but that was how I felt.

Nicol

I called all the men together to discuss the blood debt, everyone gathered at my house it was me, John Ricca, Enzo Aiuppa and Frank Accardo we were all from different Mafia families and are gathering because the Marchetti’s haven’t forgotten about the blood debt against the Capone family something that happened 20 years ago and they even killed the only 2 Capone’s that was left, Johnny and Adriana Capone the thing is the word on the street is that there is actually still a Capone left and that is Adriana and Johnny’s daughter, everyone is looking for her and we think we have found her not even far away from us she is working in Little Italy the thing is she believes her name is Lucy Smith and she have no idea who we are or should I say what we are. Which was weird for the daughter of a Mafia boss.

John was the first to arrive at Nico’s home. “Hi Nico.” “Hi John” “Am I first again?” “Yes, you know the other two is always late.” “I thought they might be on time this time because this is important.” “I know I know.” We were just sitting down when Frank and Enzo came walking into the house. “Nico, John.” John was the one to say “So nice that you could finally join us.” “Go fuck yourself John.” Frank said. “Not before you fuck Enzo.” “Hey hey leave me out of this.” I had to be the one to stop the bantering, “Can we get down to business please.” “Yes, off course.” All of them said. “So, what do we think? Is Lucy actually Caterine Capone?” “Yes, I do.” Frank said. “Anyone else?” I asked. “Yes, I agree with Frank, she might not know it and we might have to drag it out of her but she looks like Johnny and Adriana Capone, we can do DNA test while she’s with us.” Enzo said. “You guys know we are going to have to kidnap her right she’s a feisty one and won’t come out of her own free will.” “We have to do what we have to do; we all want a Capone in charge again the Marchetti’s is pure evil we need them out.” I said because let’s be serious the name Capone carries a lot of weight everywhere but especially in our world. “Yes, but will we be able to convince her to rise out of the gutters and take her place in our world. And with this task we need to protect her and help her to remember.” I said to the others. “We’ll just have to because if we found her the Marchetti’s will find her to and I rather it be us because they will kill her without even telling her why.” Frank said. “I agree with you; we take her tomorrow night and bring her here.” “We can’t keep her at your place Nico; we will have to move her around to all our places.” “We’ll figure out the logistics when we eventually have her.” I said, after the connection we made today, I wanted her with me all the damn time. “Are we all in agreement?” “Yes, we are.” The rest said. “Who’s going to the shop tomorrow?” “I will Enzo said quickly.” I wondered if he felt the same spark I felt when I touched her. It won’t be the first time we share a woman but it will be the weirdest especially for what we have in store for her.
