“Oh yes, Jack, I’ve fancied you for ages,” Vito mocked, and had to take another drag in order to keep himself from laughed, which would have caused him to swallow the cancer stick for sure, and even if he was a poltergeist, he wasn’t sure if his lungs could handle the entire cigarette. “I’ve been tortured all this time as I’ve waited for you to notice,” he added, though a few snickers managed to escape his lips despite his effort to stifle his laughter. He didn’t enjoy laughing much, for he found it rather unbecoming, and tried to the best of his ability to keep his laughter locked away in a cage made up of several white rib bones.
Vito propped one of his legs on top of his knee and leaned back into his chair, tipping his head backwards so that he was staring at the ceiling, blowing a large cloud of dancing smoke into the air, allowing it to flout about his face for a few moments afterwards, before it became transparent. The hint of a smile was seen on Vito’s face as he stared at the air that the cigarette smoke had tangoed with only seconds before, thinking of how it had had its fun drifting about and then had vanished before his eyes. It reminded him of himself, oddly, and he couldn’t help but think about what it would be like when his time was up in London and he once again had to wake up in a strange place without any idea of what to do about it.
He had to admit, he was rather content with the life that he had built for himself over the past twenty-something years, and something in him wanted never to leave his club behind, or his accomplishments, or his annoying forms of entertainment, such as the peculiar teenage female before him. It would mean starting over, and Vito had gotten too close to perfecting himself to allow his chances to be ripped away from him again.
“I need another drink. Just take this glass up to the bartender and he’ll refill it with the same alcohol I had ordered,” Vito ordered, pushing the empty glass towards Jack. His eyes were filled with threat as he eyed her, watching her to see if she would obey him. He would burn her with his cigarette if she disagreed, he decided. It would hurt, Vito knew so after behind burned in a similar way by someone he had angered in the past. She would probably scar too. Vito grinned; the idea of leaving a scar on her amused him greatly.
“Go on, girly.”
