Rosella's POV

As Ross drops me off at work the next morning I see Mayu's dark blue BMW i8 race up to me.

"Hey, I need you to come by my office right now." she tells me quickly but before I can respond to her she is already zooming off into the parking area.

I take the elevator but then I hear loud heels clanking on my tile floors. I then see Mayu running like a crazy person. How hasn't her ankles broken? The woman is running in heels!

Suddenly she stops and quickly takes off her heels and holds them in her hands and the next thing I know she is standing right next to me out of breath. "Are you okay? Why were you running like a mad woman?"

The elevator dings and we both walk out. Mayu grabs my hand and drags me into her office room.

She takes off her blazer and throws her heels under her desk. "Okay! slow down there Mayu. I'm not sure if you know but I actually like dick." I tell her jokingly.

"Oh hush and besides if I were to swing that way I would have had you years ago" she quickly goes to her window and peeks through her blinds. She lets out a small gasp and moves away from the blinds.

"Mayu? Hey, what's going on?" I ask her.

She sighs "There is this guy I fucked yesterday and he saw me just earlier and he was trying to talk to me, but I've just been running in the other direction. I need to avoid him as much as possible, so if someone comes by and they ask for me. Tell them I'm not here at the moment, okay?"

My eyes widen, but I don't argue with her so I just nod my head. I turn my head and notice that there are red roses on her desk. "Oh my god, Mayu he got you flowers! You have to tell me more about him." I whine.

"No those flowers aren't for me, they're actually for you, from the twins. You should go ahead and read the little note." I turn the vase around and pick up the piece of paper.

"Red roses for our Rose," I scoff. "Marcello must've written this. He's the only one that really calls me Rose." I smile at the thought, but then I start to think about what happened a couple of days ago.

"Ugh, that's it, we are going to a club tonight. We need to get these men off our minds and just drink the night away." Mayu says.

"Sounds good. We'll get ready over at your place tonight." I tell her. I just want some alcohol already.

"Could you hurry your ass up I've been ready for 15 minutes already." I hear Mayu yell.

"Just give me one more minute! I'm applying some lip gloss." I yell back. I walk into the living room to see Mayu eating out of a cheeto chip bag.

I stand in front of her "What do you think?" I ask her.

"Mmm. Yup, you look hot girl!" She says while munching on a Cheeto. I look at Mayu's outfit and red is definitely her color. She wears her hair straight and wears a deep matte red lipstick on her lips.

"I should be saying the same about you." I smile at her. I decided I wanted to wear a sparkly bodycon dress with some silver heels. I had my hair curled and left it down and finished it off with a pair of silver earrings.

Mayu pulled on my arm and we finally hopped into her BMW. She started to drive us to the club and decided to turn on some music. "Hey, so how is everything out of the work-life anyways?" I ask her through the blasting music.

"Hehe well..." she laughs nervously. "You know, it's nothing new, but dad still doesn't want to support my passion and dream to work in the clothing industry. He wants me to go back to school and be a doctor like himself, but mom loves what I'm doing and supports me all the way. She's going back to Japan for a bit to see my grandmother and the rest of the family."

"He still doesn't support it Mayu? I'm sorry." I tell her.

"It's whatever now. I love what I'm doing, I don't need him to tell me what I should be doing with my life. Besides I get to be working with my best friend, so I get paid really well!"

I playfully slap her arm and roll my eyes. We finally pull up to the club and Mayu finds a parking spot.

We start to walk in and we both get stares and catcalls from musty and old-looking men.

After a few drinks and 5 shots, I know that I'm drunk. "Rosella come on this is our song let's go!" Mayu grabs my arm and pulls me to the dance floor with her.

We start to dance and I suddenly feel hands wrap around my waist and warm body against my back. I lean my head back on their chest, close my eyes and enjoy the muscular body behind me.

I jump a little when a feel another pair of hands grab my hips. My breath hitched when I heard the person behind me whisper in my ear.

"Tesoro, why are you wearing such a short dress?" My eyes snap open. I know that deep Italian accent anywhere.

I pull away from the person behind me and turn around to look at their face and I get a closer look and realize that it's Marcello.

I begin to take a couple of steps back but then I end up colliding with someone else's body.

I turn around and see Vex giving me a little smirk while looking down at what I'm wearing. I start to walk away, needing to get out of the crowded space.

I go to grab another drink but then I feel Vex's hand take the glass out of my hand. What is up with him taking my drinks! Vex places it back down on the table and asks me. "How much have you been drinking?"

"Why do you care? It doesn't even matter now just give me back my drink!"

Vex takes a step back from me and tightens his fist and raises his eyebrows at my attitude.

"Shouldn't you guys be in New York or something? Why would you come dance against me when there is Layla." I yell at both of them.

Marcello walks up to me and tilts my chin up so that I am looking at him. "If you would just give us a chance to explain then maybe you would understand," Marcello tells me sternly.

"Why are you yelling at me?" I ask him. I turn my face towards Vex and ask him "And why are you mad at me?" My drunken state causes me to get emotional. "And why do I feel like everything is spinning?" I say.

I feel myself falling forward and then someone's arms are holding my small body. "Angel?" but before I can respond everything turns dark.
