C22 Chapter 22- I can't help but laugh

Snow's Pov

I was in a bad mood already because I hadn't seen the guy that owed me money,I should have known better than to let him run away that day,if not because of Sabastian I would have taken him to the warehouse so the boys could deal with him.

The elevator door opened and someone was standing in front of it,who would be standing in front of the elevator door without thinking of others.

If not that I was looking up I would have ran into him.

"Get out of my damn way, freak!!". I yelled as I pushed the person and he staggered a bit and then turned to me.

It was Sabastian.

"Hi….". Sabastian greeted me and I raised an eyebrow. Was this freak actually talking to me?

What game is he trying to play?

"Are...are you talking to me?". I asked just to be sure .

"Yes ". He confirmed.

I walked out of the elevator,closer to him.

"Help me out this once and pretend you know me". He muttered but I heard him.

Pretend I know him?

"Sabastian". I heard someone call and I saw a lady walking towards us. Each step she took was as if she was trying to intimidate me with her heels because I was wearing sneakers.

Okay what's going on here? Did I get into the middle of something?

I glanced over to Sabastian as I tried to walk away but he held onto me and I slapped his hand away.I wanted to retialite but something told me not to as I stuffed my head in the pocket of my leather jacket.

The lady stopped in front of us,her eyes not leaving Sabastian.

"Jennifer, what are you doing here?". Sabastian asked and I glanced over to Jennifer as in Jenny, his ex. The one that he was calling her name that day he got drunk.

Woah I like this!!

I absolutely love this!!

So that's what's going on!

"Good evening Sabastian I wanted us to talk". Jennifer said as she glanced over to me,looking at me from head to toe with disapproval written all over her face.

Lady, do you even know who you are looking at like that? I just felt like plucking one of her eyes out.

"I don't think we can talk today. I have a guest as you can see". Sabastian told her as she glared at me.

I was so surprised that I was keeping this quiet. I mean who wouldn't,I was given a front row seat for such real life entertainment. It was spectacular and I couldn't move away from this drama.

I don't involve myself in things like this but I was so curious as to how this was going to unfold.

"Hi my name is Jennifer,I hope you won't mind if I had a word with Sabastian". Jennifer said to me.

"As in Jennifer…..his ex?". I asked with a raised eyebrow as I stuffed my hands into my pocket. Jennifer frowned but she didn't back down.

"We have been friends for a long time and I have never seen you before,when did you two meet?". Jennifer asked, ignoring my question.

Oh now we are ignoring questions. Two can play this game.

This was getting interesting,I have not fooled around for a long time that I let the little self restraint I had go.

"Well.....I just came to visit him and as far as I know you are his ex,so stay as his ex would you...I mean there's no need for you to know when we met or even how we got to know each other". I said to Jennifer who glared at me.

"Isn't that right Sabastian?". I asked Sabastian who was staring at me as if I had grown a head.

I was actually starting to wonder if I grew another head as well as I tried so hard to not laugh at the priceless look on his face.

Sabastian must have thought that I would walk away and act as if I didn't know him but that was what I wanted to do but now there is no way I was missing this drama.

"Yes that's right Jennifer…. there's no need for you to poke your nose into my business anymore….we aren't dating". Sabastian told Jennifer.

I saw how much he was struggling with his words. I guess their breakup really hurt him that much because he was trying so hard to pull himself together but he was failing miserably.

Oh poor soul!

As if I care,if not that his stupid ex was still here I would have burst out laughing a long time ago.

"Let's go in to your apartment or are you staying with your ex?". I asked Sabastian who was staring at the whole scene with a look of amazement. He has pulled himself together, good for him.

"Sabastian". I called and he snapped out of his thoughts.

" I have plans Jennifer besides there's nothing to talk about…..it's getting late you should head home ... .I am sure your fiance is waiting for you at home". Sabastian told Jennifer who gripped her handbag and gave a forced smile.

"I told him I had somewhere to go". Jennifer replied.

"You didn't tell him you were coming to your.....ex…house". Sabastian was struggling with his words but he still managed to say that to her and Jennifer was at a loss of words as they both stared at each other as if they were communicating without saying a word.

I rolled my eyes at the scene.

This was seriously not what I signed up for.

I didn't come here to hear your love story!!

Gosh can't they be less obvious!!!

"Let's go Sebastian". I said as I started walking towards his door and he followed behind.

I glanced back to Jennifer and she was rooted at the spot,her eyes on the ground. She didn't look at us once as we got into Sabastian's apartment.

"Thank….."

"Haha…". I burst out laughing, interrupting what Sebastian was about to say.

It wasn't a girly laugh but a big outburst and I didn't even care if Sabastian was staring at me in a funny way. He seemed angry. I just didn't care enough to check as I continued laughing.

"This must be funny to you…. laughing at other people's pain". Sabastian said to me.

"A...are y....you in pain...then?". I managed to ask in between laughs, I haven't had this much fun in a long time. I missed being just a normal person who didn't have a target on their backs.

Don't get me wrong I loved being a mafia but I guess I missed dramas like this.

"Am not but still it is very rude to laugh at something like that". Sabastian said.

"Should I leave then?". I asked as I tilted my head to the side.

" I bet I could catch up to Jenny and tell her I don't know who you are". I added as he glared at me.

"I have no words to say to you". Sabastian told me as he went into his room leaving me all alone in the living room.

He doesn't even mind that a complete stranger was in his house. Maybe it was because I have slept over here before.

I can't believe that I met two funny people, relationships was something I knew I wanted nothing to do with. It was just complicated.

I took the tv remote and jumped onto the couch as I lay in it and switched on the Tv.

I was watching football when Sabastian came back into the living room.

"What are you doing? Is this your house?". He asked as I ignored him.

"You can at least act respectable". He said.

"Don't you think she might hang around just to see if I would leave soon". I stated and he thought about it for a while.

"That's true....but...but...". He said.

"Then you understand you might as well get out of my front you are blocking my view of the Tv". I said and he stepped away from where he was standing.

"I hope you are aware you are in someone else's house?". He asked.

"You invited me over...and I can't just refuse". I answered as I never took my eyes off the Tv. He stood there for a while then he went into the kitchen.

Truth is that I was actually waiting for his neighbor.

I wanted to catch him unawares,I thought that taking his phone would make him come running with the money, guess I was wrong. The only thing I raised from his phone was annoying calls asking him to come pay the money he owes them.

How many people did he borrow money from?

I think I will ask Sabastian if he has seen his neighbor when he comes out of the kitchen.

I was busy watching my football in peace when the sweetest scent I have ever smelled filled my nostrils and I stood up and headed to the kitchen where it was coming from.

I might as well make myself feel at home,besides he was the one that asked for my help.
