2. Beauty Sleep

Rose was enjoying her beauty sleep when her shrilling ringtone broke her out of her slumber. She groaned and ignored it while the phone kept blaring. Frustration crawled upon her as she winced at the tone! Why is the whole world against her beauty sleep? Couldn't she get a good night rest for once? She lazily pulled her hand out of the comforter and fished for the phone on her bedside table, turning to lie on her stomach. Finally after some struggling, she felt the object she was looking for and slowly brought it to her ear while accepting the call.

Her eyes were still shut when she spoke, "The person you're trying to reach is currently enjoying her sleep. Please try again never!" With that she hung up and went back to her beautiful slumber.

On the other side Lily was tired of trying to reach her sister again and again. Stupid girl is always sleeping, she thought. She got even more irritated when she hung up on her. "Come on idiot! I need your help," she hissed out to herself. She rung her up again and Rose picked up with an even a more irritated and groggy voice.

"What is wrong with you? Do you always have to disturb me when I'm sleeping?!"

"The hell it's only 9pm. Why are you sleeping right now anyways?" Lily asked knowing her sister never sleeps before 12.

"Would you cut to the point?" Rose mumbled in her sleepy state.

"Dad's men are on round. They know I'm not in my room!" Lily expressed, worry lacing her voice.

"Well not my problem. You should have been more careful. Now enjoy your night. Bye!" Rose was about to hang up when Lily begged her once again.

"Rose please! Are you seriously going to ignore all the stuff I did to save your ass?" Rose groaned knowing Lily was right.

"Where are you?" Rose sighed.

"At this new club. I'm sending you the location."

"Alright," and just like that Rose fell asleep again. Lily and Rose were twins. Their father, James was a former member of a famous Italian Mafia. The right hand man for his boss, but left the group after he had his twins. He knew they were his weakness and his enemies would take that to their advantage. Thus he requested his boss David De Connor, also his best friend if he could finally have a normal life. David understood him and accepted his request letting him live the life he wanted.

James loved his twins dearly. He took very special care of them. They were not identical though. Lily was a copy of her father but had her mother's blonde hair while Rose was a copy of her mother with her father's hair.

James never kept anything from his family and they were well aware of his position in the mafia. Therefore the girls were highly trained to protect themselves from any danger. Lily was great with her weapons and moves while Rose could not only fight, but had an extra gift of intelligence. In school people used to think she was a nerd but they didn't know what the nerd could actually do. She was the best hacker anyone could know of and her mind just works beyond limits when it came to making strategies, plans or even learning anything.

The girls were sent abroad for their higher studies and only returned two months back. They were having a great time with their father. James had always ensured their security so he would not let them out alone so often. If he did then they had to go out with his guards and had curfew which they were not very happy about. This is why Lily had to sneak out to a party at a club because she was tired of being in the house.

She thought she was discreet enough but her father's men were always on alert and noticed her absence in the house, therefore reported to James immediately. And this is why her car was now jammed and she was stuck at the club while waiting for Rose to save her ass. It had been fifteen minutes now and Rose still did not show up. The club is hardly a ten minutes drive from their house. The good thing was the guards didn't know where she was since her location was off and thanks to Rose, she had her father's system hacked. Or so she thought.

Lily decided to call Rose again. After three rings, she picked up and answered in her same raspy voice. "911, how may I help you?"

"What the hell, Rose? Where are you?"

"Oh Lily, Yeah I'm just getting ready. Don't worry, I'll be there in no time!" Rose hung up again. Lily caught the lie immediately, and she knew she was still in bed. Rose could care less. After stretching a bit, she finally decided to leave her husband, a.k.a., her bed. She showered and changed into a tank top and ripped jeans. While putting on her lipstick, her phone shrilled again. She knew it was Lily, and she rolled her eyes.

"For God sake Lily I'm literally two minutes away. You know the traffic in this city is just crazy. So calm your ass down now!" Rose didn't let Lily speak and hung up before she could reply. She knew her sister would have made another blunder for which she was freaking out once again and like every other time; Lily only had Rose to help her out with the whole situation. After giving herself a satisfied look, she took her keys to her baby, her Lamborghini and hit the road, oblivious to the fact she was still wearing her fuzzy bunny slippers that she loved dearly.
