^^^^^ That's what Lily looks like now Click on the actual picture to see her ^^^^^ —————————————————————
Luca's POV
It's been three years. We lost contact with the Ferrari's completely.
Killian's been trying to call Iris but there's been nothing. Romans tries to call Ezra, and to track them down but they completely disappeared.
The Ferrari mafia is still the number one, just no one knows where the hell they went.
We've traveled up to Milan, looked around their house to see if there was any clues as to where they went. But there was nothing.
Once Sofia and Lily got threatened they disappeared, our house got blown up we had to move to another part of southern Italy.
We're still trying to find them. We've been attending every single mafia ball around Europe to see if we can get any information, but we have nothing.
So that's where we are now, we're at a mafia ball in France.
We've been here for thirty minutes we've searched everywhere, guest are still coming in giving us hope.
"I don't think they're here." My mom sighs. "No they have to be, they love France. Lily loves France they'll be here." Killian protests.
"Please can we stay longer." He asks. "Ok." My mom sighs.
We walk towards the bar hoping we'll see them there.
"Nothing over in this area." My dad sighs. "Let's go to the dance floor, we might have better luck there." Roman says.
We start moving to the dance floor.
"Ok this isn't working." Killian says. I look passed him and squint my eyes. "We have to split up." He continues. "Uh Killian." I say. "Luca go to the dance floor." He points at me. "Killian." I repeat. "Roman you go upstairs." He says. "Killian." I say louder. "What Luca... I'm trying to make a plan." He glares at me. "Ya well you're plan sucks." I shrug.
"I don't see you trying to find them." He glares at me. "Oh ya?" I raise my eyebrows. "Ya." He glares at me. "Turn around you jackass."
He turns around.
He looks down and sees Sofia looking up at him smiling. He bends down immediately and hugs her tightly.
Iris comes running around the corner with worry expression on her face and a gun in her hand threatening everyone she sees.
"Oh god." Roman says. "What?" Killian stands up with Sofia in her hand. Roman points at Iris who is now holding someone at gun point. "Lord of mercy on my soul." Killian mumbles.
"IRIS." He yells.
She turns around. "Oh hey guys." She yells back and waves at us. He puts the gun back in her dress and starts walking over to us.
Iris approaches us.
"Wheres-" she cuts me off. "They're here, we were trying to find them to leave because we couldn't find you." She sighs.
"How old is Lily now?" My mom asks. "Sixteen." Iris answers. "I forgot how much I hate teenage." She shakes her head. "She's moody as hell. Oh and her attitude." She continues. "Are we surprised." Roman stares at her.
"Well, she doesn't give Ezra any attitude. Which I'm slightly offended because she gives me attitude."
"I'll find the devil. You guys find Ezra. She'll be on the right by the food or by the bar. Or at the dance floor." Iris says. "Divide and conquer." She walks away.
I start heading to the food area.
I immediately see Ezra. I start to make my way over to her.
All of a sudden the lights turn off.
I keep walking in the area Ezra was in.
"Ezra." I reach out... that was a wall.
I keep on walking. "Ezra?" I reach out again. "Nope." That was very much a man.
I turn back around and start looking around again.
All of a sudden I collide with someone. "Ow."
The lights turn back on.
"Oh it's just you." I say.
"I'm slightly offended." Iris glares at me.
"I thought you were trying to find Lily." I sigh. "And I thought you were trying to find Ezra." She responds. "Oh found her." She waves.
"So we don't know where Lily went?" I say. "Your dad and mom are currently looking for her outside. A shit load of people ran out. Roman and Killian are looking for her inside and I am looking for Ezra... but I just found her. So bye." She walks away.
I walk outside.
I look around and see a crowd of people.
I start searching the crowd. I look around. "Lily." I yell. I continue walking around the crowd. Where the hell could she have gone.
I text Roman asking if he found her, than I text my mom. When they haven't I continue looking through the crowd.
I get to a stone pathway.
"Don't touch me." I hear a voice says.
"You're actually disgusting." The voice continues. "I'd shut up if I were you little one." I hear a man's voice. "I'm convinced you're the evil queen from Snow White in old lady form... I mean no one can look that ugly without magic." She says.
I heard a slap. "That was rude."
I continue walking towards the voices, slowly trying not to make a sound.
I heard a thud. "Let go of me you ugly rodents."
"Ow... why would you do that" she exclaims.
I turn the corner. I immediately raise my two guns.
I watch as her eyes grow wide. "Drop your guns Vincenzo." One of the men say. The both lift a gun to each side of Lily's temples.
I look down and see a large cut on her thigh. I turn my gaze to a knife with blood on it. The knife is in one of the men's hand.
I look at her. She never once stopped looking at me. She looks absolutely terrified. She looks at me for help and I have no idea what to do.
"Drop them." I hear the gun click.
I look behind them and see Killian with a knife in his hand approaching them slowly. He nods to the guy on the left.
He holds up the number one. "I won't say it again." Than he holds up the number to. "Drop your gun." The man yells as Killian holds up the number three.
I shoot the guy on the left. The bullet hits his hand as he drops the knife. As that's all happening Killian stabs the man on the right.
She goes to stand up but falls forward into me. I put her back on the ground. "I forgot about that." She looks at her thigh.
"That's a lot of blood." She examines her large cut. "Wait." She looks up at me. "Do I need snitches." She panics. "I hate needles." She says.
"Depends on how deep it is." I answer.
She closes her eyes. "Please don't be to deep. Please don't be to deep." She whispers to herself.
"Do you have anything to stop the blood?" I ask Killian. "Why would I have anything for that?" He stares at me.
"I don't know, you could have just said no." I respond. "Well that was a stupid question." He rolls his eyes. "How... we're apart of the mafia, bleeding is apart of the job." I exclaim. "Ok than why don't you have anything, huh... boss."
"Just rip up a shirt." Lily stares at both of us.
"Oh true." Killian nods. "Haven't you guys been in the mafia sense they 1950s." She rolls her eyes. "Right because we're like 80 years old." Killian scoffs. "Also you're not using my shirt." He walks away.
"You can just use theres." She nods to the men. "Really... you want to use theirs?" I ask. "Uhhh." She thinks for a moment. "No not really."
I grab a knife and quickly rip off a part of my shirt. I wrap it tightly around her leg to prevent more bleeding.
"Can you walk?" I ask. "I don't know I've been sitting down the whole time." She shrugs.
I stand up. As she stands up we start getting fired at.
We take cover. "Stay here." I order. "Wait what." She responds.
"Where are you going?" Lily asks. "Don't leave." She continues. "I'm just going right here, to see if it's a better angle to shoot at them."
I start move away trying to find a good angle to snipe them.
"Why do you keep moving away?" She asks. "I'm trying to find a good angle to snipe them." I respond. "Could you try to do that closer." I turn to look at her. Panic and fear is written all of her face. She's breathing heavily, her hands are trembling.
"Are you ok?" I ask. "No you keep on moving away, like you're going to leave." I walk back over to her. "I'm not going-" I stop talking when I see a bomb get thrown.
"We need to go now." I look at her. "I can't." She shakes her head, her breathing still heavy. I look at her cut and see the shirt covered in blood. "It's ok." I smile softly at her, attempting to calm her down.
I bend down and pick her up. I quickly turn around and run away from the bomb.
A few moments later it goes off. Immediately after, we start getting shot at again.
I hear another gun shot.
I look up in one of the windows and see Roman sniping the men shooting at us.
I stop running when I see a random man standing in front of us with a gun raised.
A knife gets thrown hitting him in the temple.
I look in the direction where the knife came from.
I watch as Ezra walks out from the dark corner of the building.
"Oh hi mom." Lily waves. "Look who I found." She says. "I actually found her." I sigh. "What the fuck happened to you're leg?" She clenches her fists.... I'm scared.
"Oh it's no big deal... they're dead." Lily says. "Oh and who killed them. Wait them?" Ezra sighs. "Wait." She repeats. "Did I miss your first kill." Why does she seem sad about that. "Uh no."
"Than who killed them?" Ezra asks as Lily points at me. Ezra's gaze shifts over to me, I watch a small smile appear on her face.
"AHHHHHHH." Than I hear leaves ruffling.
Ezra and I stare at each other in confusion for a moment before turning around.
I see Roman in a bush. Did he just jump out of the window?
Whatever he's fine.
"Ow." I hear him say as Lily laughs quietly. Or maybe he's not fine.
"Can you take her with you guys. I'll hold them off, for you guys." Ezra looks at me. "And take care of her... please." She continues. "Ok." I nod. She looks at Lily. "I'll see you before you go to bed ok." Lily nods.
"This is such a beautiful moment, and I'd hate to ruin it... but there's a branch currently going up my butt." Roman announces.
"Oh hey Lil." Roman waves. "Hi." Lily laughs softly.
Ezra looks back at me. "Go." She says. She walks over to Roman and starts pulling him out of the bush.
I run towards my parents when I start hearing gun shots.
I approach them.
I watch as Killian looks at Roman who's currently in a shoot out. He looks at Sofia, than back at Roman.
Obviously having a mental battle.
"You don't have to go." I sigh as he drops Sofia. "I know, you can't fight because your on baby sitting duty." Killian nods to Lily.
"Hey that-" I cut her off. "You still don't have to go." I say. "He's our little brother." He takes out his gun and runs over to him. "I'm going too." My dad says. I hand him my gun.
"Your dad's definitely only going so he's doesn't have to spend time with us." Iris says.
I look around. I see my mom, Iris and Sofia staring at me. All of a sudden Iris starts laughing. "You're a leader and your stuck with us."
"Soooo... what now?" My mom asks.
"We're going to our house." Iris says getting in the car. "You guys have a house in France?" My mom questions. "Well we have two. Ones a cottage and the other is just a regular house."
Fifteen minutes later
We arrive at they're house. Regular house my ass. It's a mansion.
We walk in the house. "Put Lily on the couch." Iris points at the couch. "What do you need me to do." My mom asks. "Make food." I shrug. "I emphasize that message." Lily points her finger in the air. My mom looks at Iris who's smiling and nodding her head.
"Sofia you're helping me than." My mom says and they both walk into the kitchen.
"Start taking that off her leg and I'll be right back... I have to get stuff." Iris runs out of the room.
Iris walks in like two seconds later.
"Ok hold her leg right here, and hold it still." She instructs. I hold down Lily's leg as Iris begins to clean the cut.
After a few moments Iris sighs. "Bad news." Lily opens her eyes. "My leg has to be chopped off." She says casually. "Uh no, you just need stitches." Iris responds. "WHAT NO."
"Just close you're eyes this time." Iris rolls her eyes. "This time?" I question. "Ya the last time she needed stitches she looked... Ya." She sighs. "She fainted."
Lily starts getting stitched up. "Ow ow ow." She squeezes her eyes shut. "Hold my hand." She sticks out her hand. "I wouldn't... my dad almost lost his hand." Iris says as she continues stitching Lily's leg.
Right I forgot Rocco adopted her.
"My arms getting tired." Lily shakes her arm. I take her hand. "You're going to regret that very shortly." Iris goes back to stitching her up.
Her grip isn't even that bad. "IRIS." Lily yells as she squeezes on my hand harder... she just cracked my finger. "Sorry that was my bad." Iris laughs softly.
"Ok ow." I say. "You ow?" Lily yells. "Me ow." She nods to her leg. "Than loosen your grip on my hand." I respond. "You're not the one that's getting part of your leg sewed together." she glares at me. "You're cutting of the circulation in my hand." I respond. "Stop fighting its distracting." Iris says.
"I'm looking." Lily says. "No... bad." Iris looks up. "Imma do it." Lily challenges. "Shield the leg." Iris orders. "Looking in five, four, three." She closes her eyes. "SOFIA." Iris yells.
"Yes." Sofia walks in front the kitchen. "Shield Lily's eyes and keep yours eyes closed." Iris smiles. She nods and walks over to Lily and closes her eyes.
"Sofia you traitor." Lily says. "You were suppose to be on-" Iris cuts her off. "Shut up you drama Queen."
"Drama Queen?" Lily exclaims. "Yes drama Queen." Iris responds. "Can we just do this in silen-" Another one of my fingers crack. "Seriously that's the second time." I say. "Deal with it." Lily responds. "Did you drink tonight?" Iris questions. "Yes." She responds.
Isn't she sixteen...
"Foods ready." My mom walks in.
"Why are you tightening you're grip on my hand." Lily yells. "Because you are." I respond. "I'm using you for support, you don't hold my hand tighter." She continues. "I do when you're cracking every single one of my fingers." I say. "Stop moving... your suppose to hold her down." Iris glares at me.
"Foods not ready." My mom backs up and hurry's back into the kitchen.
"This is horrible... I feel like im dyin-" Iris cuts off her off. "Done."
Lily sits up. "Oh wasn't that bad." She shrugs.
Iris stares at her blankly. "I hate you."
Thirty minutes later
"I have a question." I say. "Hm." Iris responds putting dishes in the dishwasher. "When I was with Lily earlier. There was a massive shoot out. I kept moving away from her to find a good angle to shoot. She was having some sort of-" she cuts me off. "Anxiety attack?" She questions as I nod.
"She has separation anxiety." Iris whips the table now. "Thought only babies had that." I say. "Yes it's more common in kids than teen. It's rare for people above eighteen to develop it. If teens do develop separation anxiety it's usually because of trauma or being left before."
"And before you go blaming yourself... she started showing sighs of it after we found out your house got blown up." She sighs.
"It was weird she never had a problem with Ezra leaving before. Than all of a sudden she started having meltdowns when Ezra had to leave the house. She made up random scenario's about her being kidnapped or getting killed... there were times she avoided going out herself." She looks at me. "Which reminds me, she won't go to bed until Ezra comes home. She'll stay on that couch."
"Can you stay up with her?" She asks. "I mean I would, but you have some shit to clear up." She continues. "I'm also using that as an excuse so I can go to bed." She walks out of the kitchen.
She didn't even give me a chance to answer.
I walk into the living room and see Lily sitting on one end of the couch. I sit down on the other side of the couch.
"Why are you here?" She asks. "Why were you trying to find us." She continues. "What do you mean?" I question. "I mean why are you here, when you have a family and why were you trying to find us, when you have a family."
Before I could say anything. "I'm not jealous because that's probably what your thinking... well I'm not." She nods her head. "I'm not." There's a long pause. "Actually I am." She says. "You were my dad first, so I win. Ha."
"What are you winning exactly?" I ask. "I don't know." She shrugs. "So where is your wife... the model bitch?" She asks. "Not my wife." I answer. "The devil spawn. You know the thing growing in her belly." She asks. "Not my daughter." I answer. "Wait what." She looks at me.
"She's not your wife and she's not your daughter?" She questions. "Uh no." I respond. "Than why the hell was she at that one ball?" She asks. "Ohhhh I see. You wanted mom to kill her. That's actually smart." She nods.
"Ok no." I shake my head.
"So you actually liked the bitch." She glares at me. "Also no." I respond. "I can't be the only one confused." She sighs.
"I didn't get her pregnant." I say. "Oh so you got cheated on." She nods. "And she got pregnant from a random dude." She continues. "Never doubted you for a second." She smiles. "....Actually I did."
"Oh I have a question." She says. I look over at her. "Yes."
"Why didn't you leave right away when you found out she had me?" She asks. "What do you mean?" I question. "Well I'm not you're real daughter, so why were you treating me like I was." She says.
"Just because you're not my biological daughter doesn't mean your not my 'real' daughter." I respond.
"Family isn't always blood." I say.
