“We should stop because I thought we hated each other, and my mom is watching as well as that old man,” Iris says, and she pulls back.
Nico groans as Iris pulls away from the kiss, but he keeps his hand on her waist. Nico whispers in Iris’s ear, “We should do that again.”
Iris chuckles and slaps Nico playfully on his arm.
Nico pretends to be offended and puts his hand over his arm, like it hurts now that she slapped him. “Owww.”
“That didn’t hurt, and you know it. Don’t be dramatic,” Iris says.
Iris looks at the old man, so mad at the man because of what he tried to do. Iris then looks at Nico, and the anger goes away. She says, “What are we going to do about the man?”
Nico looks at the man, with anger he has never felt, and says, “Kill him.”
“Nico!” Iris yells.
Nico looks at Iris and says, “I’m a mafioso, I kill people for a living, and he looked at what’s mine.”
Iris smirks, “So you are claiming me now?”
Nico catches Iris’ smirk and also smirks, “I claimed you since the day I laid eyes on you, baby.”
“I’m that beautiful?” Iris says with surprise.
“You are the most beautiful person in the world, and you are the only person I will look at.”
Iris smirks even harder and looks at Nico, “So, you are saying that you only like me?”
Nico looks at her and smiles, “Yes, I only like you, and you want to know why?”
Iris looks at him curiously, “Yes, I want to know why.”
Nico turns serious and looks at Iris, “I like you because you make me weak in the knees when I look at you, and you make me feel things mafia bosses are not supposed to feel for other people.” Nico says with so much emotion that every single word he says sounds true to anyone who listens to him.
Iris stops smirking, and her eyes water, and she cries.
