Had this been the work of Cupid’s Arrow? Or was it that, for a change, a charming and very handsome man was being nice and thoughtful towards her? She could hear her sister Eva admonishing for it, telling her that he was a man, that this was rushed, that she barely knew him. But Mary pushed those thoughts away and just focused on Julián and his beautiful smile.
“Yeah, I can stay longer…” she nodded her head, smiling at him. She didn’t want to leave just yet, not only because she was having a great time, but because she didn’t want to go back home to the life she hated.
“Oh, yes, something to eat would be awesome” she said cheerfully. She loved to hear him speak in spanish, it sounded so attractive. It seemed crazy to him that he wasn’t married. Well, maybe he had a girlfriend. “What are we eating?” She asked curiously before sipping her drink. “Tell me more about yourself, Julián” she smiled. “Do you have a partner?” She asked, not wanting to mention that she didn’t see a wedding ring on his hand.
Her approval to stay longer with him only prompted him to think about an activity they could do before the night ended, which wasn’t one related to intimate or carnal affairs. Julian was planning to even take her out on a secret date, involving one of his favorite activities: bowling.
But first things first, they had to grab something to eat at the bar before heading off to that place. And of course, they’d be joined by his bodyguards as soon as they left the bar, since Julian was known amongst the criminal world and he had as many allies and as many foes. He didn’t wish to be disturbed, not when he was around a beautiful woman like Mary, and he was wishing to get to know her.
Julian snapped out of his thoughts to hear her questions, eyes blinking for a few seconds. “Oh, I believe Omar is going to bring a house specialty..” Which was nothing short of Caribbean dishes. At her inquiries about his relationship status, Julian attempted to hide his smirk. Sure, he could tell about his hundred hookups with women, as well as relationships that only lasted a few months, but he’d paint it differently. “To be honest with you, I wasn’t as committed as I was before. I had my fair share of relationships, but now I don’t have anyone. I haven’t had anyone in a long time, Mary. I can be a lot to handle.” He didn’t want to scare her at all. No. He only wished to let her know - subtly, that is - that engaging with him had its pros and cons.
