Maya walked into the Haunted Star dressed to impress in a teal dress that complimented her nicely. She felt Ethan’s eyes on her. He was still pissed about the breakup. But there was no way she could have continued that relationship. Ethan was so immature. She could never be serious with him. As much as she liked bad boys she couldn’t deal with him. He was a boy and she wanted a man. She sat at the bar debating on what drink to order. “Scotch on the rocks. One for me and one for the beautiful lady sitting next to me.” She turned her head and smiled recognizing the man’s voice. She was now peering into his dark brown eyes. “Thank you.” She managed to say to Johnny Zacharra. A self-proclaimed bad boy, Johnny was always taking risks and getting in to trouble. She was surprised he was still alive after getting shot so many times. The way he would keep at a goal no matter what intrigued her though. “Why are you sitting here all along?” he asked her. He came because he needed a good stiff drink to keep his mind off of the latest drama with Sonny. He didn’t think Maya frequented a place like this. He pictured her hanging out with some girlfriends at some club sipping cosmos. “I came for a drink and to gamble a bit.” she replied. “You gamble?” he asked cocking his brow. She was surprised he seemed somewhat shocked. “I don’t wanna boast but last time I went to Vegas I won $10,000.” She told him. “Impressive. Maybe I should take you with me this weekend when I go gambling.” He said trying to be subtle as he flirted with her. “Maybe you should? Where are you headed?” she asked playing along. “The Bahamas.” He replied trying to get her to understand that he was serious. “You should come with.” He added hoping she would accept his invitation. “Is it gonna be like some Casino Royale type *!**!**!**!*?” she asked. He was shocked. He never thought Maya used profanity. “Did you just curse? I dint think Maya Ward talked so dirty.” he told her. “I can talk dirty with the best of them.” She replied. They both laughed. “I bet you can. To answer your question it just might be. I hope that doesn’t change your mind.” “Not at all I wanna go.” She said smiling at him. “Then pack some extra sexy things. I’ll buy you anything else you need.” “Perfect.” She said finishing her drink. She got up and grabbed her purse. He reached out and grabbed her arm. “Where are you going?” he asked. “Home. I needed to pack and tell Monica I’ll be gone for the weekend.” “You need to ask your aunt for permission to leave the country?” “No, I don’t. I want to tell her because she cares about all of us. She worries that we’re not going to be around. She kinda lost all her children, and her husband. I lost my dad and my stepmom. I know how she feels. I just want her mind to be at ease.” She told him. “Well, let me take you home.” He offered. “Thanks but I have my car.” As she walked away Johnny couldn’t take his eyes off of her. Neither could Ethan. He had been staring at them the whole time they had talked. He was pissed that his boss was making a move on his woman. The way Maya seemed so at ease with him angered him even more.
