I OWN NOTHING.

''Christopher Morales. I've been very interested to meet you for quite some time,'' Agent Turner passed Rio a cup of black coffee.

''Can't say the feeling is mutual man.''

''Let's talk about Taylor Marks. Until about a few months ago she was a very respected middle school English teacher then suddenly she ups and quits her job and is seen fequently hanging out with you. Why is that?'' Turner questioned.

''Why do you think?'' Rio asked with a smirk.

''Well see I asked her myself and she gave me this as her statement,'' Turner pushed a piece of paper towards Rio who scanned it before a wide smirk took over his face. ''I don't believe a word of it. Why would such a smart, respected, and nice girl want to be associated with some inner city gangbanger like yourself, no offense of course,'' Turner smiled.

''What can I say? 'for she met me the poor thing was a virgin. She really needed someone to give her a release and I'm nothing if not charitable,'' Rio shrugged. Agent Turner leaned in towards Rio.

''You're playing with that girl and once you get done with her you'll toss her out in the trash like the rest of them. Am I wrong?''

Rio let a small smile slip before he looked up at Jim with a smirk. ''I think I'll keep this one around a bit longer than the others. Just to get under your skin Agent. I've got to go. Prior engagement.'' Rio stood and headed towards the door.

''She's too good for you.''

''Now that, we can agree upon. See you around Agent.''

Taylor hummed as she continued her work. Painting all of the walls in their living room herself instead of paying someone else to do it seemed like a good idea at the time but now she was starting to reconsider that choice.

''Mama!'' Taylor spun around at the sound of Marcus' voice.

Marcus! Oh sweetie how are you?'' She asked as she hugged him into her chest.

''Great! I couldn't wait to see you again and this time I brought my mommy!''

Taylor looked up to the same woman she had seen Rio with at the store just a few days ago. And Taylor had to admit, she was beautiful. She could definitely see why Rio had married her.

''He calls you 'mama'?'' The woman questioned with a deep frown.

''That's what daddy calls her sometimes,'' Marcus answered. Taylor smiled down at him.

''Marcus honey? Why don't you go in the kitchen and enjoy the snacks I left for you?''

''Yay!'' Marcus ran.

Taylor smiled at Marcus' mother and held out her hand towards her. ''Hi. I'm Taylor. It's so nice to finally meet you.''

The woman stood infront of her with a look of distain plastered on her face.

'Oh great. It's gonna be like that.' Taylor smiled and took her hand away.

''I'm used to seeing Rio's latest conquests around his home but I gotta say, this is the first time I've seen him put them to work. I'm kind of impressed.'' Angela smirked but Taylor continued to smile at her.

''You can wait for Rio if you'd like. He said he would be back soon.''

''Fine. I'll wait,'' Angela backed away and looked around the house before stopping at one of their end tables covered in picture frames on the top. ''Why is one of your pictures here?''

''I'm sure you can already guess,'' Taylor smiled politely.

''Rio let you move in?'' Angela asked. Taylor nodded while Angela scoffed. ''I can't believe this. Why would he choose some basic white bitch over me?''

''My race means something?'' Taylor questioned. Angela glared at her.

''Rio's never been even remotely serious about anyone but me.''

''He had to get serious again at some point,'' Taylor shrugged.

''Why you?'' Angela questioned.

''He says he trusts me and he apparently likes my face,'' Taylor smiled. Angela's eyes widened before she slapped Taylor across the face.

''Rio doesn't trust anyone but me! You understand?''

Taylor tried to comfort her. ''I get that letting go is hard, especially when you've been married really I do but you've got to move on, for yourself.''

Angela glared and went in for another slap but Taylor grabbed her hand.

''I tried to be nice.''

Rio sighed as he climbed out of his car. That Agent was one of the biggest dicks he'd ever met, and he worked with criminals so that was saying something. And now thanks to Agent Dick, he was late getting home to his son.

Just as he pushed in his front door his ex-wife stumbled out holding her nose and swearing. Rio just watched after her for a moment before continuing into his house.

''May I ask what happened while I was gone?''

''I'm still painting,'' Taylor shrugged. Rio raised an eyebrow at her. ''How did it go with Turner?'' She asked.

''Meh. Guy's a tool but no surprise there,'' Rio shrugged off his jacket. ''I read your statement you gave by the way. I'm glad you think so highly of my abilities.''

Taylor shrugged. ''What can I say? I fantasized a lot before we got together.''

''That makes two of us,'' Rio smirked and pulled her in for a kiss.

''Daddy!'' Marcus yelled as he came running down the hallway.

''Hey pop. I missed you,'' Rio took him into his arms.

''How about a movie?'' Taylor suggested after giving up on painting for the night.

''The Little Mermaid!'' Marcus exclaimed. Rio raised an eyebrow before looking over at Taylor who just shrugged.

.

.

''Alright Taylor. This is it. Rio and Marcus are gone for the next few hours and you're gonna finish painting this wall because you are the woman. Let's do this,'' Taylor peptalked herself until her phone rang. ''Oh thank God. Carlos? What's up my dude?''

''Miss Taylor, something has happened to boss..it's really bad.''

''..what?'' Taylor questioned.

''He's been shot Miss Taylor.''
