Chapter 70

*****Vincent's POV*****

Taking a seat in the living area, I click through the TV channels - not actually taking in anything on the screen, floating in a trance like state.

It had been two hours since the incident, and the room smelled like strong bleach after the cleaner had came quickly to deal with Sofia's throw up.

It didn't take long for Daryl to enter the room, holding a bag of frozen peas to his cheek which causes for me to smirk - must've got him good with one of my hits if he's resorted to the peas... "Quit smiling dickhead, this shit isn't funny!" Daryl complains, sinking down into the furthest away chair in the room to avoid being near me completely.

Immature...

"Enough of this behaviour, we need to get it together once and for all!" I decide to be the bigger person, hitting the red button to turn off the TV all together, gaining his full attention now. "But I still stand by what I said, you shouldn't be getting the girl involved in business." Daryl shrugs, as I sigh heavily.

Putting it like that, I could understand what he was getting at, but I had already thought it through more than he knew.

"Do you seriously think for a minute that I would just take her along with me for the exchange? In amongst all of those guys?!" I question him in disbelief that he thinks I would be so careless. Another shrug from him almost sends me over the edge but instead I suck in a heavy intake of air to help calm my temper as best I can.

"I wanted her to be close to me but certainly not that fucking close. I would've kept her back at the hotel whilst I wrapped up the exchange. Figured it would be good to take her out somewhere different after everything that's happened, see another city." I grumble, annoyed that I even have to explain myself to him as he glowers back at me.

"So you're seriously telling me that you didn't just want some alone time with her to fuck?" Daryl mocks, evidently in a childish huff that I was wanting to take his crush away for a few days.
