Chereads / The Mafia Couple / Chapter 16 - The pick up

Chapter 16 - The pick up

I rush to my class twenty minutes late, quietly taking my seat near Jessica, " Where have you been ?" He asks, whispering.

" It's a long story, I will tell you everything in detail after class" I reply.

She nods as we both turn to meet Mr.

After our one-hour lecture, we both remain in class finishing up our work.

"Hey, how about a sleepover this weekend?" 

"Yeah, sure that's a great idea," I say forcing back on my laptop.

" But where though?" Jennie questions.

" My place," I say with excitement.

" Wait, will your roommate allow it ?" 

" It's also my place, you know, so he has to agree," I say.

" It's gonna be so much fun, we can watch Animé or movies and eat loads of popcorn" she jumps from her seat repeatedly.

A moment later the door opens whilst I'm trying to figure out what to tell Jason, about the sleepover, would he agree? I heard a powerful sexy familiar voice.

" Have you seen Marie?" He said in a deep voice.

The girls reacted in Union to his presence hearing everyone gasp, I lifted my face in his direction oh, shit no, my heart nearly stopped as I took in his whole appearance, he looks more attractive and gorgeous I'd never seen anyone like him, my mouth falls open upon seeing him.

"He's so hot," Jennie whispered.

Still looking at him with my mouth agape, he turns to meet my gaze.

"Is he asking for you?" Jennie asks in shock.

"That's my roommate" I stutter, still keeping my gaze on him and his on mine.

"What! Jason Luciano is your roommate?" 

She continues " He's the son of a " she doesn't finish her statement when Jason cleared his throat and that's when I realised he was standing right in front of us. feeling my cheeks flush I turned to look at Jennie, who was looking back at me with confusion.

" Class I overtakes your things we are leaving," he says in a calm demanding tone.

" W-what " I look away from Jennie, to look up at Jason, who's looking down at me.

With a pounding heart in my chest. I start to clear up my books.

What has gotten into this boy, how can he just show up in my class like that?.

"Marie!" I snap out of my thoughts.

"I um " I stutter.

He grabs my wrist and everyone stares at us trying to look like they aren't staring at us and some keep whispering to each other.

I turn back to give Jennifer an " I will call you to sign" before walking out the door and she nods.

" Why are you here?" I ask.

" I'm here to pick you up " he looks down at me with a sexy grin.

" Where are you taking me?" I shot him with another question.

" Somewhere, just shut up and follow me," he says.

"Could you at least tell me why you are here?"I ask again.

"Just keep quiet and follow, me Marie," he says with a grin.

I watch as he rounds the car and gets in the driver's seat following each line the way his body moves. I can't help but drool over his attractiveness.

"Are you just gonna stay there admiring me all day?" he peeps through and winks.

I don't get why I should be careful around him, she's probably just trying to save me from getting a heartbreak and I appreciate that.I shake my head as I enter into his car putting his car into drive and pulling out of the parking lot,I glance around seeing eyes following us.Of course they will stare at you like zombies,You are fucking seating on passenger seat with the most popular and handsome guy.

My phone vibrates in my pocket, I pull it out of my pocket viewing a message from Jennifer.

" What the hell Marie,You didn't tell me that your roommate was freaking thee,Jason Luciano!"

I a deep breath looking out the window and seeing the moving cars and houses.

" How where your classes?" He asks breaking the awkward silence filling in his car.

" They were fine until you showed up like a ghost" I roll eyes crossing my arms.

"Why didn't you tell me your full name James?" I ask with curiosity.

" I wil tell you all about it sometime" he says with a small smile.

Why can't he tell me now? I mean I get it if he's not open to tell me now.

"I'm taking you for lunch" he says,I look up to find him staring at me, we're not driving anymore,I didn't even notice it.

" This is my favourite restaurant" he says.

I look at front of the building,it says "Chinese Cafe " in fancy lettering.

How again did he know my favourite food?

He gets out and shuts his door behind him, getting out carefully and shutting the door not wanting to slam it.We both walk into the building with little distance between us.

He holds the door open for me as I walk in first and he walks in behind me.

"Greetings Mr Luciano, a table for two is set for you Sir" a waitress says.

" Yes,thank you dear" he says.

Does this mean he owns this place at his young age? He's just full of surprises.

The waitress leads us to a table in a corner by the window, I take a sit across him.

After food was delivered to us we both eat in silence,I was really enjoying the food and I didn't want Jason to disturb me either,I could feel his glares on me from time to time.

"How did you know this was my favourite food?" I ask with food full in my mouth.

He chuckles "What!?" I ask.

"Nothing" he says.

" I have ways darling" he answers to my question I asked earlier.

How does he tend to find out every detail of me, when I've never told him anything?.
