But that was the least of Ileanas worries. They were on the way to collect money earned from selling drugs. This was all thanks to Tony, who had decided he wanted to make more money, and shipping drugs was apparently too low for him, the man had an ego, that was for sure.

As the drove through the streets of Miami Beach, Ileana finally had a chance to appreciate the beauty of the place they had moved too. She hadn't had a chance before, always too busy working or trying to make manny and Tony stay out of trouble, but not even a saint could do that.

They had two other man in the car with them and Ileana. She was sitting between Tony, who had his arm around her, and another Cuban man on her left, in the back seat of Mannys car. "Look at those tits man, she's asking for it" manny said to the man on his right, one hand on the steering wheel, another pushing his sunglasses up, as they had slipped down his nose.

Ileana rolled her eyes at his words. It was hard having to hear the man go on and on about women around her, he always forgot a woman was in his company, and it usually resorted in Tony having to lecture him until he felt guilty and apologise.

The man on mannys right had a confused and horrified look on his face, as two elderly women were walking behind the young girls manny was talking about "Hey man you crazy, she's almost ninety" the shocked man said, staring at the old women.

Manny sighed rolling his eyes before pointing at the girl ahead of the older two women "No man, her!" He said, clarifying he wasn't into old ladies. Ileana found herself smiling at the whole conversation, they were all quite stupid at times.

"Hey man will you fucking move, we at a stop sign man!" Tony yelled at manny, and the man immediately drove. Tony was like a big brother to manny, and he always wanted to prove himself to him.

"Sorry man, we just trying to stay loose up here man, you gonna have a heart attack if you don't" Manny said making Ileana chuckle and he flashed her a smile through the rear view mirror. Tony saw this and scowled "You gonna keep your fucking eyes on the road huh?" He said practically threatening Manny who quickly nodded muttering f "ok" a few times.

Ileana noticed how stressed Tony was and sighed looking at him "You ok?" She asked him with an expression of worry on her face. He looked back at her for a moment, his expression unreadable, before nodding curtly "I'm fine" he said emotionlessly, making her nod her head in
disapproval at his obvious lying.

Ileana smiled hearing the beginning of the song "Bette Davis Eyes" she had only heard in a few times in Cuba, but she found it very catchy and unlike the music she grew up with in Havana. She hummed along to it, so quietly she could barely hear herself. She sighed when she heard manny say they were almost there.

They pulled onto the side of the rode, you could see the beach from her left, and she looked at it for a moment before Tony turned and spoke to them all in a hushed manner. "Ok, the money stays in the truck till I come out. You got it? Me, nobody else okay? I'm not out in fifteen minutes something wrong, okay? Room nine, let's go" He said as he stood pulling the man on Ileanas left up with him.

"Tony?" Ileana called out, her hair blowing slightly, and he noticed this as he turned to face her when he was out of the car. He nodded at her, wanting to know what she was going to ask "I can come with you, if you want" she offered with in a soft tone. He scowled at her idea "No, fuck no. Your lucky your even here, I just didn't want to leave you on your own" he said, and although his words were quiet harsh and mean, he leaned down to kiss her cheek softly before he went, the contrast between his words and actions had always confused her.

Manny shared an amused look with Ileana as Tony and his brother in law who had come with them, turned to walk to the room in the motel. As he began getting further and further away, she noticed his gun was showing, he had it behind his back, stuffed into his trousers. She laughed before calling his name. Hearing her voice he immediately turned his head, and she gestured to his gun, he turned and realised when he felt the cool metal, and quietly pulled his top up over it, making her nod at him.

As Ileana saw Tony go inside, and his brother in law wait outside to see everything was okay, she sighed, turning back to face a smirking manny. Frowning in confusion from his expression she asked "What?" He only laughed in response, shaking his head "You both whipped for each other, you know that?" He teased making her roll her eyes, but made no effort to respond. Because it was true. They were both so in love.
