Realistic or Modern 6 Feet Under

Vanessa raised an eyebrow at her cousin as she took back her flask. "You're nineteen, and can't drink yet. What's the point of going to a club if you can't get intoxicated?" She said chuckling a teasing tone edged in her voice. Then she looked back to Johnathan. "You know you can quit now, I'll mail in the papers tomorrow and my friend will set up everything for you. By the end of the week you'll have a job and be one of the highest paid CEO's in the city." She said to him in a hushed voice so only they and some of Isabella could hear her.

A smile tugged at Ven's lips, there, in sight, were two members of the mafia family. Two girls, to be exact, and someone she did not recognize. And who would've thought that trailing the leaders niece would lead her to his daughter! She calculated her options, shoot them now? No... not with civilians around. Perhaps trail her and ambush her when she was alone? That would be best. Of course, she'd get a hefty pay to her family for Isabella, but if she got Vanessa... she could quit this job, and her and her family would live like kings forever.

"You know I don't play by the rules." Isabella replied, pretending to be annoyed with her cousin. "And anyway, I go to dance and maybe have a drink or two." She added as she tightened her pony tail.


Her eyebrow raised as she over heard Vanessa. "What did you do?" She asked, making sure to keep her tone hushed.

 

[Axeykins]

"I know I know, but I've gotta let my boss know I'm leaving." He whispered back. Unsure of how much to let Vanessa's cousin in on he was leaving it pretty vague. "I work at some humdrum little place right now, but movin' up in the world very soon."

"That you will be." Vanessa said looking over to Johnathan with a smile, then turned to her cousin. "The club sounds fun but I've been away so much lately I can't afford daddy dearest coming to investigate where I've been again." She said remembering what happened to the last guy she was with. She sighed and drank some more of her coffee, letting the warm liquor settle in her stomach.

 

[Authorian]

I ran my finger over the blade of my knife, holding it beneath the table I was watching Vanessa from. She would be quite the prize, and, best of all, she liked being alone. It was only a matter of time before my stalking would pay off, big time.

 

[Melanie Teresa]

Shaking her head, Isabella took another sip from her coffee. "Well that's good to hear. Congrats on the 'promotion'" Isabella said to Jonathan, already kind of having an idea that Vanessa had pulled some strings.


"Boo I don't want to go to the club alone. I might just spend some time at home or something." She scoffed quietly.

 

[Axeykins]

"Thanks." His smile widened. At least Vanessa's cousin seemed to understand a bit and was playing along. He could at least tell that much. "It will definitely be nice to have a bit more comfortable job. One that lets me sleep a little more and has a much better pay." He took a big sip of his coffee. "Once everything settles down I'll be more up for a going out to the club offer, maybe."

 

[EvelienLocalArtist]

"Well, you could always hang out with me at my house? I know it's no club, but it'll give the family a little less reason to be suspicious of us, plus," she tapped where she hid the flask. "Free drinks all night long. You can even bring some friends, but er- I don't recommend too many guys."

 

[Melanie Teresa]

Isabella smiled thoughtfully at Johnathan, "It's alright guys, we can go celebrate Johnathan's promotion some other time." She ran a hand through her pony tail and looked to Vanessa. "Yeah I'm totally okay with that, and I've pretty much convinced my parents that I'm gay or something." She replied nonchalantly.

 

[Axeykins]

"Next week or sooner if we're lucky." He sighed and smiled at both of them. "I hope to be cruising in the easy lane real soon and feeling and looking good again. It'll be a much deserved break and definitely worth celebrating."

 

[EvelienLocalArtist]

"Definately." Vanessa agreed with Johnathan then almost choked on her coffee. "What?! You? Gay?!" She realised she said that a bit loudly and cleared her throat. "Not that there's anything wrong with that." She said just as loudly, then quieted her voice back down. "How on earth did a girl like you get your parents to think that?" I scoffed in amazement.

 

[Melanie Teresa]

Isabella's eyes widened at Vanessa's surprise. "Way to make a girl feel like a floosy." She joked. The whole thing was really simple really, she would post pictures on social media that were almost convincing of her 'lesbianism'. "Well long story short, I have two Facebook pages and one is suuuuuuper discreet. I had to pay big money to make that happen and the other account, let's just say I frequently update it with pictures of me and my 'girlfriend'" Isabella explained, using quotations around the word girl friend.

 

[EvelienLocalArtist]

Vanessa nodded but chuckled, "You still use Facebook?" She snickered teasingly, "Not only that but I'm surprised my father even allows someone so close to the family like you to even have social media." She said intrigued.

 

[Melanie Teresa]

Isabella rolled her eyes, then stuck her tongue out at her cousin. "My parents are surprisingly more lenient, just as long as I only friend the family." Isabella replied with a shrug.

 

[EvelienLocalArtist]

"So I take it they don't aprove of the second account then?" Vanessa said with a grin, then turned to Johnathan. "I would call you but my phone lines aren't exactly the safest of things, so I'll have my friend mail you the info of when it's all set and when you can start your new job." She said sitting up and grabbing her stuff. She didn't like being in one place this long. Her father's goons could be anywhere, and no longer trusted any place for too long.

 

[Melanie Teresa]

Isabella didn't even have to answer her cousin's question because a huge grin spread across her face. Vanessa got up to leave and Isabella looked at her, "Am I coming over now or later?" She asked curiously. Not totally sure of what their plans were.

 

[Axeykins]

"Great! I'll be waiting eagerly." He smiled and stood up. Like Vanessa he felt uneasy after staying in one place for too long. A few of his payments were lat too, so that only made it worse.

"In about an hour or two. That'll give you time to gather up your troop of peers, and me the time to gather all the alcoholic sustenance needed. Sound good?" Vanessa said with a grin. Then she sipped her coffee as she turned to Johnathan. "I wish you could come over, but you really sound like you need your rest. So maybe win you've reached that CEO million status?" She said her tone playful. "See you soon." She said shaking his hand and turning to leave, giving time for Isabella to follow if she wanted.

 

[Melanie Teresa]

Isabella gathered her belongings and stood up with everyone else. "It was nice to meet you Johnathan!" Isabelle said cheerfully as she followed Vanessa outside.


"Fine by me, I'll go change my outfit and hit up my 'girlfriend' and invite her." She said to Vanessa as she started to make her way down the street.

 

[Axeykins]

"I don't see that happening soon. So how about after I get some sleep instead?" He chuckled. He really did wish that he could go with them, but odds were he'd end up the passed out fool if he went. "It was nice meeting you too Isabella." He smiled and nodded before heading off in the opposite direction.

 

[Melanie Teresa]

The wind had died down and Isabella walked back down into the neighborhood of her 'girlfriend', sure they were really close. For crying out loud they were pretending to be a couple. Isabella was somewhat confused on her feelings towards her friend. She definitely love men, but this girl had a special place in her heart. Her trail of thought was interrupted by an all black Mercedes pulling up next to her. The window slowly rolled down and Isabella looked at the driver. "'Ey, whatchu doing walking out by yourself Little Lady." One of her father's goons asked trying to seem somewhat menacing. "Eddie, why the hell are you following me, huh?! I'm going to my girl friend's house." She replied with some attitude. Highly annoyed that she had been found. "Wait 'till ya dad hears bout this on." Eddie threatened before speeding off. Isabella let out a loud groan as she made it to her friends house, hiding away from everyone's crap.

 

[Axeykins]

"Eeeey Johnny boy! Long time no see!"


Johnathan's heart dropped to his stomach as soon as he heard that voice and saw three big goons standing in front of him. He turning around he was met with three more and no escape route. At least it looked like they had stumbled upon him rather than follow him there."What do you want Vito?"


"Oh you know exactly why I'm here John. You're late again and you know what that means." A menacing grin spread across his face as he cracked his knuckles and motioned for the others to move in.


"Please, no...not today..I swear I'll pay soon.."


"Sorry John. You know how things work. It's just business." He chuckled.


After a quite brutal beat down Vito motioned for them to stop and let John fall to a heap on the ground while they took everything from his pockets. "Shh. Not much, but at least it's a payment! Thank you for the business Johnny boy! The boss'll be real happy!"

(God dang it. I thought it posted a while ago but never even posted at all! >_<*)


As Vanessa walked she wondered if Isabella knew where her new house was. She moved a lot but could never avoid her father. Oh well, she thought to herself as she walked over to the liqiour store. Though her concern quickly bounced back as she saw the members of her father's Mafia pumbling poor Johnathan. She hid worriedly behind a car and waited for them to leave. "Johnathan!" She yelped going over to him. "Oh god..." She muttered seeing the damage.

 

[Axeykins]

"Va..ness..a?" His voice was shaky as he looked up at her with one eye. He has the other closed to keep blood from a gash on his eyebrow from getting in to it. They had left him an aweful mess. "D-don't worry about me..I just...it's just a few scrapes and bruises. Nothing too serious. They went easy on me this time."
