Cross paths

\[ Present time \]

(Bella's pov)

my heart 🫀 was pounding like crazy and so was yours.......... I never thought you would do something like this , for someone like me but u do.........

How could everything go so wrong???

How could I fail this bad??

How could I fail you??

I never fail....... that's what I thought all this freaking time like my whole existence was a lie in front of you...

But now it's to late.....

I won't be able to save you........ Or would I????

\[\[ Two Months Earlier \]\]

Narrator : HUNTER

Same old street , same view scenery and same old work .......... Rain drops falls on the back of my hands ... GREAT AND NOW ITS GONNA RAIN 🌧️. I took my bag and ran towards my apartment as fast as I can but luck has to be on the other side making me trip over and I fell in a puddle ..

FINE ! JUST FINE ! IT WAS THE ONLY THING THAT WAS REMAINING TO RUIN MY DAY.

(Far away in car)

(Bella speaking)

What's so funny🤨 ??? Spencer , I asked. He replied with a laugh of a Hyena ,, making me look out the window seeing a poor guy who fell in a water puddle....

Are you laughing at people because they fall accidentally again 🤨❓

Spencer rolls eyes and turn to look back to reply, Come on Bella , yk there's nothing else in My life to light up my day . Spencer laughs again making me give him a annoyed look..

So what I am hearing is you don't like being my guard anymore ,which give me idea to fire u old man laughs .....

Spencer laughs and pull the car where we were waiting for aria as he turn and said - u are saying this from last few years and here I am ....

Looking at him,  I can see him Clearly enjoying this whole thing I look out of the window inhaling the fresh earthy smell filling up my nostrils which makes me smile a lil when Aria's sudden voice bring me back to life ..

What did I miss ? She asked ...... just Spencer being rude as usual...

We both laughs clearly sensing Spencer eye rolling while driving ,cracks us up ....

Okay so , back to the serious talk .... Do u have any news .? She asked me with a serious look and a stone cold face...

Inhales Deeply,, we were so close to get them red handed but we need to step up to catch this fuckers messing with our business , grabbing my guns nuzzle in hands angrily.

Aria put a arm around my shoulder ,,, it's about time we catch them and. Trust me they gonna regret messing with us Bella .. she gave me an encouraging smile....

I turn back my head to look out the window once again absorbing every bit of the night sky and fallen drops I'm witnessing rn in front of my eyes ... my thoughts getting best of me :- I may look like a classy women but I've lost count on how many times I've seen blood running down my hands in past years..... being the leader of the city. The leader of my gang isn't easy especially not for a normal walking person down the street . I'm feared no one wants to fall in Bella Moretti's vital trap because when you're stuck . You are never getting out. No matter who u are . I will always come find u and take u down 🔫. Whoever you are u can't fleee away from me . You can beg me for mercy but I m gonna crush u down without even blinking twice ... U MESS WITH ME ITS EITHER U BEING DEAD OR U BEING DEAD NO OTHER WAY.

(Narrator now : Hunter🧑🏻)

I made it to my apartment. Entering the apartment i heard noises and went straight to investigate towards it witnessing a shadow I screamed my lungs out and swing my baseball bat only mil second away to hit them ... only to find out  it was my dumbass friend Valerie (ik ik she's not dumb okay maybe a lil dumb & stupid too but yeh she's the only friend I got since middle school and we are bff ever since I love her and the very core of my heart...)

What u doing here😑 ?? I almost killed u , u dummy ... tossing my bat on the sofa and grab towel to dry my hair from the rain earlier....

I wanted to surprise u with a movie night as we always do , she said excited grabbing me by my arm and pulling me to come sit with her...

I'm so sorry val I had to stay a lil longer at work ...... I replied with a tired facial expression..

I'm worried for you she replied she get it by seeing at my face and put a gentle hand on my knee giving it a gentle squeeze. You are always at work HUNTER u need to look out for yourself... cutting her politely... yk i need to have this job. moving away from home was a tough decision I made but now I I need to pay bills have food in running and everything val . It's tough to settle down with such low offering. putting my head on her lap ......

Maybe you should look for another job she said turning on the Tv and munching on the popcorn and running her hands through my hair ..... while me laying on her lap and facing the TV . Don't u think I tried but it's impossible... To find job this easily Val.

Sun rays peeks through the thin curtains, I can feel on my skin .... My phone keep on blowing up ....

Hello ?? ........ wait what .....? Are you serious ..........? OH COME ON NOW ......... WHAT DO YOU ......... YK WHAT JUST CUT THE CRAP .... Hung up the phone, anger radiating through me as I was about to loose control ... Spencer came running hearing me shouting this early .....

Why are u screaming this early ?? Spencer asked and I pass him my deathist glare but exhale dramatically before explaining the whole situation...

Clench my jaw I DID NOTHING 😑.. spencer brings me the water from the night stand as he pass me the glass , Ik it's stressful for u now.... But u need to stay strong and do it for ........

( narrator : Hunter🧑🏻)

Val gets her coffee🥤, Thank you she said before turning to me ...... why are you doing that face she asked me with a curious look on her face....

I found a job offer I replied hesitantly .... That's great bruh 😄 she replied enthusiasticly almost spilling her coffee all over me...

Hearing this, ( the bitch aka my best friend Val hold my wrist and ran out of the coffee shop and pushed me ) you can always run 💁🏼‍♀️.

I hate running 😑! She gave me the deathly😠 glare almost making me piss my pants and push me on the arm.. MAY THE FORCE BE WITH YOU. 😌

Val ( inside her head) I'm such a good friend 💁🏼‍♀️😌, she said laughing manicly making me doubt why even I am friends with this weirdo 🫤🙄in the first place...

I didn't see left -right and ran for my life, not technically for my life but for my interview. gosh, I'm late 💢💢.

*bummped* into the most gorgeous women I have ever laid my eyes on like she was hand sculpted by a Greek goddess herself - her face, her eyes oh her eyes 🫠 🤌deeper than ocean her pearly white smile ( she wasn't smiling tho but I can imagine her beautiful smile already in my head ) and god those lips of her and those curve. (oh no no forgot about me saying anything about curves) 😅.

What the fuck.......? Were her word bringing me back to life apart from being mesmerized by this goddess infront of me. I offer her my hands to help her but she shoves it away.... oh my gosh I'm so sorry - I stuttered as an absolute star stuck idiot .....

Watch where u are going she said with a cold glare and voice.. Which makes my heart drop in my stomach but I couldn't find that will power to tear my eyes away from this her....

My phone 💬 pings and after that I ran as fast as I can to be there in that last 2 mins.

(meanwhile in interview)

Aria and Spencer interviewing all the candidate and yawning clearly not impressed by any of them.

Aria growled I think it's best for the both of us if you go out of that freaking door before you need a jaw surgery I saw the guy was horrifyed for his life as he run from the room without turning back.. Spencer laughs you don't have to be so hard on them Aria....NEXT Aria called...

As I walked into the room from the waiting room. Hello I am Hun...

You!!!!!! Spencer replied, making Aria confused WHO?? 🤔

As I was about to speak my name the same women from across the street who captured my heart walks into the room with a excited look on her face but it dropped as soon as she looks at me with a cold face she said...... YOU!!!!!!! 👹

Aria replied snapping me out again- Am I supposed to know who this dude is 😑.... ?

*coughs coughs*....... are you okay? She asked. It made my heart race like a Gt Ferrari on a open empty track on high speed,,, I look up at her Turing like a freaking tomato 🍅.
