Making deals with a monster
Luciano looked Red over "ok convince me on why I should help you" Luciano said looking at Red he loved the way she was so desperate "Luciano I know how much you hate your brother because of him you lost your father and your mother 's love I know very much about the price brothers you guys never get along" Luciano stood up and looked at her "so whats in it for me?" he said moving closer to Red she shifted in her seat and looked at Luciano "you will get revenge on your brother and get your mother 's love back" Red said she smiled at Luciano who was thinking she hoped he would accept the offer "ok but the deal has changed I want revenge and something else" Luciano said playing with Red 's hair she could feel his hot breath on her skin and sighed "and what might that be?" Red said moving away from Luciano 's touch "patience, patience has its rewards Red you will soon know what I want so is it a deal" Red looked at Luciano what did this man want was the question running through her mind right now "It's a deal" Red took Luciano 's hand and he smiled at her he looked around and sighed "to get revenge you have to be my girlfriend" He said staring at Red came to him with an offer what he wanted was to play a game with her "what I will not agree to this" Red said standing up from her seat she looked at Luciano "relax Red it only for the time being or until one of us falls in love first" Luciano moved closer to Red who was still lost 'what does he mean by fall in love first' she could understand the words but something was telling her that Luciano had something planned that she quite did understand "ok but they are going to be basic ground rules"Red said looking at Luciano who moved even closer that they could feel each other 's breaths on their skin "ok then what are the rules" Red took a deep breath "1. Rule number one No catching feelings. 2. Rule number two No PDA 3. Rule number 3 No love making"
Red said in one breath she looked at Luciano who was trying to find a way to break the rules there s always a loop hole in the systems "I would like to object to rule number 2" Luciano said grabbing the glass behind Red, she furrowed her eyebrows and looked at him what was there to change on the rules this wasn't a movie were they would magically end up falling in love "why would you want to change the rule" "because if we can't show PDA then people won't believe us and it would be harder to get revenge on my brother" Red sighed she didn't want tomato a mountain out of a mole hill or start a fight with him it would be like going to war "fine are there any suggestions" "yes they are you will have to accompany to every event as my girl" Red just nodded the sooner she gets what she wants the better then she would never talk or look at this man again "I will pick you up tomorrow at seven be ready by then" Red nodded Luciano smiled at how quiet she had become "well goodnight Luciano tomorrow I have a long day of work ahead of me" she grabbed her jacket and left Luciano was left alone enjoying her sweet scent that still lingered around he went back to bed 'soon my love very soon my dear I will hold you in my arms'
Red arrived home still in worry her and Luciano never got along yes he might be one of her dad 's business partners since she was fourteen and all he did was show pure hatred when she started dating his brother the hatred grew what was he planning something was deffinetly wrong what did he want other than revenge "Meredith were have you been" her father 's angry voice screamed she looked at him and sighed "none of your business" Red said walking past her father "it is my business because my daughter comes back home at midnight and looks drunk" her father yelled she could see his purple vein showing on his forehead "relax I'm old enough to do what I want and why do you suddenly care" "because I'm your dad and I've always cared" she could hear the shake in his voice "no you don't, now if you excuse me I'm going to bed" she went up the stairs to her room and sighed it was either there was a big event were she had to show up and act like the perfect daughter or their relatives were visiting soon she changed and went to take a cold shower washing off all the make up on her body she sighed while relaxing the sooner this game was over the better grabbing a towel she wrapped it around her body and went to her full length mirror she looked and saw every thing she saw the girl she has been trying to hide her straight wavy hair, the bags under her eyes, brown piecing eyes, brown chocolaty skin and the belly that was posing in she sighed she was looking at herself maybe her mom was right that she needs too tart losing weight she wore her baggy clothes and went to sleep.
"wake up Red" her mom said pouring a glass of water on her face she looked at her lock it was four a.m she knew this woman was mental but not this much "what mom have you checked the time its four a.m" "I know the time now get up you have have a visit to the gym" Red sighed "why?" she said her mother looked at her as if she had just said the stupidest thing "get out now and meet me halfway down the stairs" her mom said she scrambled to her feet and got dressed I a pair of tights and a tank top when she arrived at the the gym her mother sat by a bench and watched her exercise "after graduation I'm finding my own apartment and moving out" she mumbled to herself after two hours of working out she wanted to go get Starbucks but her mother just handed her a water bottle she looked at it she was tired when they arrived home she went straight to bed and relaxed she didn't want to workout but she had too maybe she would be slimmer and prettier like Valerie she shakes her had and went to take a hot shower it instantly relaxed her muscles and made her seem at peace that was the thing here peace was what she needed she left the shower and put on a black oversized t-shirt that reached mid-thigh and some thigh high boots she left her room and went downstairs and made herself a cup of coffee she sighed seeing as it was the only beverage she could have other than water she took her car keys and left today was her day she just wanted to relax get her nails done and go back home and take a bubble bath and then go on her fake date with Luciano she went shopping but was soon disturbed when she saw Ryan carrying Valerie she looked away and took a deep breath and remembered Luciano 's words 'be nice to her' she repeated in her head she went over to look at some diamond earrings and room the set and a skirt that seemed to have caught her eye "Red what are you doing here?" Ryan 's voice said after the little visit she pulled last night he didn't want to even see her near Valerie "oh Ryan and Valerie didn't see you there I'm just shopping" "oh really" Ryan said not believing her she was planning something she seemed way to subtle talking to her "yeah of course I'm just shopping its not like I'm following you but goodbye I will talk to you guys later" Red left and paid for her things she rolled her eyes she sounded so fake and the way Valerie was clinging to Ryan she dint like it at all now all she had to did was go for her date Ryan looked at Red 's retreating figure and smiled she was acting and she knew that she might have been talking but one thing he would never forget is that her eyes tell the whole truth.
she checked herself in the mirror one more time and went downstairs "you look fat" "thank you for the compliment mother" Red said rolling her eyes she grabbed a salad "you are eating again" Her mother said looking at her disgusted "you are breathing again" Red replied back her father couldn't keep his laugh in anymore "oh Damien shut up you know very well she needs to lose weight" her mother yelled at her father "were are you going dressed like a skank" her mother said "somewhere" Red said moving toward the door "stop your mother for once is right were are you going Meredith" her father crossed his arms over his chest while her mother mimicked him "ok I think we already know how this works, you ask me were I'm going I don't tell you and walk out the door, mom will go to Max 's house and spend the night with him, dad you are going to stay here drinking and when I come back act like you care so this must be my quo so goodnight" she walked out the door toward Luciano 's car who was waiting for his littler princess he smiled as he saw her emerge out of her habitat his eyes travelled her body her skirt fit perfectly, her shirt was tucked in and her outfit hugged her curves perfectly he smirked imagining all the things he wanted to do to her as she got in she looked at him he was dressed on a three piece suit "evening" he said to her "hey" she said back and relaxed in the seat she looked out the window and back at Luciano who kept his eyes on the road "Meredith if there is something you would like to say I reckon you say it now" Luciano said "why are you helping me?" "because I'm getting something out of it, why would you ask" 'because when we were kids you pushed me into the ball pit and dint offer any help" "oh please that was long ago I changed after that" Red laughed at his words changed wasn't the word for him "why are you laughing?" "Luciano you changing is like sponge bob getting his driver 's license" Luciano laughed at what she had said they soon arrived at the restaurant and got out.
