Her hand was in a lot of pain so I thought, 'why not be nice and cook?' Just kidding, Mason made them.Dad hummed in response, shoving a piece of his breakfast in his mouth, "I shot Aich was choing cho schtay for breakfasht."There was a moment of silence. We tried to make out what he said. 'I thought Ace was going to stay for breakfast.' Mason swallowed the food in his mouth before replying, "he had to leave early. Something came up.""What thing?" Mom asked out of curiosity. Mason shrugged, "something, mom. He didn't tell me nor did I ask. Next time when you see him, you can ask him.""Chill—" I muttered, raising my brows at my older brother, "did your girl break up with you already?""Shut up, Ivy," Mason rolled his eyes."You woke up on the wrong side of the bed?" I asked to which he let out a sigh, "Isabelle called me and told me that she won't be able t
I V YI don't know for how many hours I've been lying down on my bed and staring at the ceiling. The only thing I could think of was the mafia.Ace was part of the Italian mafia. Did Mason know? Was he part of it too? I had so many questions yet answers to none. I couldn't just go and ask them, 'hey guys, are y'all part of the Italian mafia?' I was not dumb.They would ask me questions, like, how do I know of the tattoo? Where did I see it? And I wasn't ready to let anyone know that part of my life yet.My eyes felt heavy and were beginning to close. I didn't bother to fight sleep. I let it consume me.**"Hold this gun and shoot that man." The familiar voice spoke dangerously close to my right ear. I took a deep breath and focused on the man in front of me, who was tied in a chair, his hands behind his back and his head lowered. I felt bad.I don't know what he did. I didn't have the right to question my own boyfriend. My heart was racing and my hands were trembling. I felt a hand on
I V YWhile the adults began talking about their childhood and all boring stories, I found myself eating my pizza quietly since I had nothing interesting to say and I did not want to be part of the adults' conversation. It always ends up with something like marriage, kids and stuffs.I took a bite from my second pizza when Mason's phone started ringing. He excused himself before standing up and leaving to attend the call. Ace and I were the only ones not talking. I finished my second pizza, feeling full.I opened my soda and drank the whole content before standing up and went to wash my hands. After washing them, I turned around only to be met with Ace's piercing blue eyes, staring right at me.I wiped my hands with the towel before smiling at him, "what are you doing here?""I came to wash my hands," he replied walking towards the sink, his shoulders brushing against mine. I took a step away, giving him more space. My eyes fell on the tattoo on his wrist. I took a close look at it be
A C EIvy was so fucking beautiful.Definitely the most beautiful girl I've ever laid eyes on. She had long wavy brown hairs and green eyes with pink soft lips begging to be kissed. I don't know for how many minutes I've been staring at her but hearing my mom say my name broke my out of my trance."...and my son, Ace.""I'm Ace and best friends with your brother," I flashed her a smile, "nice to meet you, Ivy."She smiled back, "likewise, Ace.""She knows you're my best friend, Ace," Mason spoke, rolling his eyes, "I already told her.""You know I like to do my own introductions," I said, moving my eyes from Ivy to Mason, "best friend." I then looked at Mr and Mrs Reed, "good to see you two again, all well and fine but still not mentally stable."Mason's and Ivy's parents broke out into a fit of laughter. Mason shot me a glare while my parents nervously laughed, all while shooting daggers at me with their eyes. I glanced at Ivy who looked amused."You and your jokes...anyway it's grea
I V Y"I met with an accident earlier today and my great son who doesn't use his brain decides to invite people for dinner. Great, just great!" Mom ranted as she placed the plates on the table, "now I have to cook for not only four person but seven with a broken arm. I love you, Mason, do you hear me? I fucking love you! Note the sarcasm."Mason flashed her a guilty smile, "I might have forgotten that you had an accident earlier," he scratched the back of his neck, "you know they don't eat much.""They don't eat much?" Dad repeated, raising his brows, "fine, Ace doesn't eat much but his parents? God damn, they eat like pigs!""How about you call them and cancel the whole dinner thing?" I suggested to my brainless family, "or we can order online."My mom pointed her finger at me with her eyes wide as if I suggested the best idea, "great idea! Order, quick! Order something! Anything!""I'm not ordering anything," I chuckled, shaking my head, "it's Macy's guests so he orders." Mason let
A C E"What the fuck was that, Romano?" Damian voice was louder than someone when speaking in a mic. How? Still a mystery.I've got a theory though, maybe his parents were too loud while doing it. Fetus turned deaf while being produced.You know, when a person's normal voice is loud, it usually means he's got hearing problems."That was me winning, fucktard," I replied with a roll of my eyes as I tossed the keys to him, "you owe me three hundred dollars.""You scratched my car, bitch!" Damien caught the key and held it in between his fingers, "it's you who owe me money here, not the other way round.""We had a bet," I reminded, "I win, you give me three hundred dollars. I lose, I give you three hundred dollars and guess what? I won. You've got three minutes to hand over the money or trust me, your car will be the least of your worries.""Stop scaring the poor guy, son." The voice of my dad made me roll my eyes again, "he knew what he was getting into.""What's three hundred dollars? W
The house was as beautiful as it always was. We didn't have a huge house, it was of an average size. We had a huge background where my parents would often host small dinners, parties or even breakfast with their close friends. Our home was away from the rest since my parents love their privacy.Mason helped my by carrying one if my suitcases in my room while I carried the other one. My parents were in their own room, resting or doing other things. I wouldn't be surprised if so. They are tough human beings, even accidents cannot hold them when it comes to sex."Do you need help arranging your stuffs?" Mason asked, raising an eyebrow. I shook my head to which he smirked, "Ha! I wouldn't have helped you either.""Still an asshole, I see," I rolled my eyes, "wasn't expecting you to, either.""You know me, baby sis. Anyway, I'll leave you to arrange your things alone. I have to meet Ace.""Ace?" I repeated, "who's that?""My best friend." He replied, "I'll see you later at dinner, kay? Bye
I V YI made my way inside the hospital, feeling my heart beat pick up with every steps I was taking. I could hear the sound of my heart beating echoing in my head making me lick my dry lips.I should never have left.I stopped walking when my eyes fell on my brother who was talking to someone over the phone. He hasn't changed, he looked exactly like he did two years ago. His brown hairs, his diamond-shaped jawline, pale skin, thin lips and green eyes. He and I shared the same hair and eyes colour; brown hairs, green eyes.He still hasn't noticed my presence yet. Whoever he was speaking to seemed to be interesting him quite a lot. I stood feet away from him, staring at him. I don't understand how he hasn't felt eyes on him. If someone was staring at me, I'd know."Excuse me?" The clearing of throat of someone made me turn my head to that person. I took in the appearance of the short bald man wearing a doctor's white coat with a stethoscope wrapped around his neck and glasses on him."
