I whispered in antonio’s ear as i was hugging him “thank you for treating me the same after everything”

“You think i would treat you different, im hurt cherry” he whispered back in my ear as i chuckled and broke the hug kissing his cheek. I sat back down properly and noticed leo’s jaw clenched and nose flaring as he glared at the T.V?

“Lea why are you glaring at the tv?” Caterina asked with a smile on her face, i looked at her confused but she shook her head. Leo grumbled under his breath “nothing”. I shrugged it off and yawned laying my head on antonio’s shoulder as he played with my hair. “Only a few hours and you feel like family” antonio muttered under his breath, i don’t think i was supposed to hear but i did. I chuckled and closed my eyes. “Sleep cherry, i’ll ask Leo to lay you down in the guest room” i nodded to tired to reply.

I was playing with issa’s hair and saw Leo and Cat watching TVD, they must’ve turned it back on.

“Jack?” Leo asked looking at me, scowling at cherry and I or more specifically the position we were in. I mentally smirked, time to tease him.

“He’s taken care of” i smirked and he nodded averting eyes. I looked back at issabella and noticed her breath evened out.

She was sleeping, i don’t know why but i felt the need to protect her as a older brother does. She was too precious to go through the torture she suffered, just thinking about him i wanted to rip out jacks dick shoving it up his ass or chop it in peices and feed it to him.

I shook my head and distracted myself watching TVD.

“Lord, this man is H.O.T” caterina muttered, both Leo and i scoffed.

“I don’t know about lea but im definitely, hotter than Klaus Mikaelson.”

“You wish” she whispered but i heard and glared at her, she ignored me. Ouch bitch, ignored by my own sister.

“Leo” i poked him and he swatted my hand.

“Ouch asshole, i was going to tell you to pick up cherry and lay her down in the guest room, but fine i’ll do it” just as i said that he looked at me with such speed, i was confused how he hadn’t gotten whiplash. “Uh-um no need i’ll take her” he quickly stood up, picking her bridal style, "I'm going to bed too, night” he spoke and went up the stairs.

“She is so gonna be our sister in law” i spoke and caterina nodded.

“I give it a year max, till they’re engaged” caterina replied.

“Nah i say less then a year” she raised and eyebrow

“Bet?” she asked

“Bet” i smirked back.

“Alright im off to bed” i nodded and went to my room and cat went to her. I flopped on my water bed and sighed in content.

“Ooo i should wake up cherry we could jump on the bed” i muttered

“Don’t even fucking think about it, let her sleep” cat shouted and i cringed, did i forget to mention her room was next to mine, we had a conjoined room.

“Fine” i shouted back and closed my eyes

“Ahh peace” i muttered and went to sleep.

I admit, i hated seeing my nugget so close to antonio, i just can’t figure out why. I opened the guest room, covering her up in blankets. I placed a feather light kiss on her forehead and whispered “good night baby, you are so fucking strong”. She mewed sleepily and i chuckled softly, i switched off the lights and went to my room closing her door.

Quickly removing my clothes, i discarded them and put on some sweatpants , i went to my bed and layed down switching off the lights, i tried to sleep but my thoughts were consumed by the grey eyed beauty sleeping next door.

I was about to doze off when i heard screaming from issa’s room. I sprinted to her room bashing my head on the door forgetting i closed it to give her privacy. I opened it and saw her trashing around screaming and sobbing. I went to her hugging her “shh im here, i’m not going anywhere." She opened her eyes and looked at me with bloodshot eyes, she hugged me back resting her head in the crook of my neck.

“Stay with me please” she pleaded, i hesitated a little no matter how much i wanted to.

“What if you’re uncomfortable?” i asked her softly.

“I won’t be please.” she muttered. I sighed and nodded

“Sure, come on lay down.” i ordered and she complied laying in fetal position clutching her blankets.

I spooned her kissing her forehead. “Goodnight nugget” i mumbled and kissed her neck as she shivered. “Goodnight lea” she replied and i smiled “hey” i exclaimed teasingly and she chuckled.

Though i hated admitting it, she was bright, she was good. Good for me , for antonio and good for caterina. But i couldn’t be with her, the mafia life was to dangerous for her. I shook away my thoughts and dozed off next to issabella.
