Ezra's POV

"That was fun guys." Roman says. "We almost died but it was fun." He continues as we walk to the entrance of my house.

"How did you manage to get covered in blood... you look like you bathed in it." Killian says. "Why do you guys look clean?" I ask. "Because we're not psychotic." Roman points out.

"Ezra just open the door, I want to go to sleep." Leo yawns.

I put the key in the whole... and drop the keys.

"Oh my god." Leo sighs. "If our lives depend on Ezra opening a door.... We're all dead." Roman says. "Do you not know how to open a door." Killian stares at me. "Shut up." I scoff.

"Could one of you guys shine a light. It's pitch black and I can't find the hole." I say as Roman laughs softly. Killian takes out his phone. "Thank you." I sing as he shines a light on the lock.

I put the key in the lock and turn.

"You turn the key the other way." Leo sighs. "We're so dead." Roman sighs. "Stop being dramatic." I roll my eyes.

I turn the key the other way and try to open the door but it won't. "The doors jammed." I sigh. Killian reach over me and open the door easily. "The doors jammed." He scoffs.

"Never again am I asking you to open a door." Killian walks by me. "I agree." Roman says. "Goodnight." Leo waves.

"Wait where am I going?" He asks. "No clue." I answer.

I look at the couch and see both Luca and Lily passed out.

I don't know how to feel. I'm happy because he's here, staying up with her. But I'm also mad because he is staying up with her when he has a family and she's just going to get her hopes up that he's actually going to be there. When he's not.

I approach him. I tap him repeatedly until he wakes up.

He opens his eyes and jumps back. "What?" I glare at him. "What do you mean 'what?'" He responds. "You were scared." I say. "I open my eyes and the first thing I see is you covered in blood... excuse me for being scared." Drama Queen.

"Why are you with her." I spit out. "Iris told me to stay up with her." He answers. Damn you Iris.

"Why did you say yes?" I ask. "What kind of a question is that?" He questions. "A good one." I respond.

"Why are you here... with my daughter when you have some other daughter and some other girl." I glare at him. Before he could say anything I talk again. "I'm not jealous if that's what you thinking." I pause. "No I actually am... you were mine first but you chose that model bitch." He stares at me blankly.

Wait i don't care. Compose your self Ezra.

"I just had the same exact conversation with her." He points at Lily. "She also said the same thing you said... I'm having a déjà vu episode right now." As I said Drama Queen.

"Do you want me to explain right now or tomorrow." He says. "Uh right now." I respond. "Ok." He sigh.

"I love that you guys are talking... but I would also love to be in a nice cozy bed to sleep." I hear Leo say. "Same." Killian and Roman say in unison.

I never showed them where they're sleeping did I.... I kinda forgot about them.

"You're lucky... bitch." I glare at him. "Also wake her up, while I get the sleeping arrangements situated." I walk away as Killian, Roman and Leo follow me.

We walk up the stairs.

"Leo your right here and Killian you're over here." I point to two different doors.

They walk in the rooms.

I walk down the hallway. "Ezra." I hear Roman say. "Yes." I respond. "You're going to hear him out right?" He asks. "Why?" I question. "Because you should and-" I cut him off. "Why should I?"

"You wuvvv him and your going to live happily ever after... with Lily." He bats his eyelashes as I stare at him blankly.

He sighs. "I know what he did was... you no." He looks at me. "Bad." He says. "And I know he doesn't deserve you and Lily but he-" I cut him off. "Good we're on the same page." I nod.

"Haha no." He shakes his head. "What do you mean no." I glare at him. "I want you to be officially my sister." He whines. "Is that all you want?" I ask. "Well no. I want you and my brother to be happy."

"You pushing him away is only going to hurt you... oh and-" I cut him off again. "If you say Lily." I pause. "I'll chop your head off." I say. "It will hurt Lily." He says quickly then runs in his room.

I hate everyone.

I walk down in the opposite direction towards my room.

I open my door and see Lily standing there... in the pitch black.

"Uh hi." I turn on the light. "Luca is now my dad so he's sticking around." She smiles. Is this seriously happening again. Can I just shoot myself.

"Ok ok ok ok." She walks up to me. "I know I shouldn't forgive him so easily... but he did save my life soooo." She shrugs as I nod. He did do that. "Oh and I did break like five of his finger." I don't even want to know.

"But he doesn't know I forgive him, he still thinks I hate him. Sooo whenever you are ready I'll tell him that I don't actually hate him." She smiles.

"You don't have to wait for me." I respond.

"Why, he hurt you more. Why would I forgive him before you." She asks. "Because you are your own person." I say as she looks at me confused. "Lily tell him, don't wait for me."

"But you-" I cut her off. "I don't care." I shake my head. "But if-" I cut her off again. "Shut up." I stare at her. "Oh." She nods.

"Goodnight." I smile. "Goodnight- oh by the way I showed Luca his room... cause you forgot." I nod. "Definitely didn't purposely forget." I smile. "How do you forget purposely?" She asks. "I just didn't show him where to go because I didn't want to."

"Oh." She nods. "Ohhhhhhhh." She points at me. "You need to go to bed." I rub my forehead.

"Goodnight love you." She walks out. "Love you too."

I shower, get dressed, than finally get into bed. I close my eyes instantly.

Next day

I walk down stairs and start to make myself breakfast.

"Have you talked to Luca yet?" Iris walks in. "It's ten o'clock in the morning. No i haven't talked to him." I respond.

"Right so anyways... you missed the show last night." Iris laughs. "The show?" I question as Aurora walks in. "I wish I wasn't here." She says. "What? I'm confused." I sigh.

"I was stitching Lily up... and you know how she is with that stuff." I nod. "Ya i do." She's horrible with that stuff... she actually fainted once.

"Ya well she basically demanded Luca to hold her hand... she probably broke a few of his fingers." Than Iris suddenly starts laughing. "Than." She pauses and laughs again.

I look at Aurora. "It's really not that funny." She whispers to me as I nod.

I wait for Iris to control herself.

"Lily and Luca started yelling at each other." She says. "Than Lily said that she'd look at wh-" Aurora cuts her off. "Don't forget the part where you were fighting with the both of them as well." She says. "Right can't forget that." Iris looks at me.

"Anyways Lily threatened that she'd look and we both know how that would end." She says as I nod again. "Well anyways I called Sofia in to cover her eyes. Than I finished stitching her up." She shrugs.

"Either you're horrible at telling stories... which you are, or that was just not funny." I say. "It was both." Aurora points out.

"You guys are just haters." She scoffs. "You're just bad at telling stories." I respond. "Imma go see Dominic cause he won't hate on me." She walks out. "He's also two." I yell out to her.

Dominic is her son by the way. We finally got a boy in this household.

"I had a better night than her." I look at Aurora. "I'm sure you did." She responds. "None of us died." I smile. "I noticed... you all came back in one piece." She nods.

She walks over to the stove turns in on and walks over to the fridge.

"How have you been?" She asks closing the fridge door. "Bored... when your hiding you can't really do anything." I respond.

"And you still remained number one." She says. "At least you guys moved up the ranks." I laugh softly. "You guys were fifth best mafia... I was embarrassed." I say. "Trust me, I was embarrassed for myself." She jokes.

"How's your father doing?" She asks. I gulp and start to play with my fingers. "He's fine." I nod. "He's back at our cottage on the other side of France." I continue. "He's doing fine... just fine." I whisper the last part.

I look back the doorway and watch as Luca walks by.

I look over at Aurora. "Are you going to go talk or are you just going to stare?" She asks. "Staring is fine." I respond.

"No... go." She nods to the door. "No... I stay." I respond. "Are you five?" She asks. "Yup." I nod. "Go now... or I won't bake my pastries." I jump off my chair and run after Luca.

Food is life. Especially Aurora's food.

I walk behind him. I look at his left hand. I squint my eyes. Where is his wedding ring.

"Luca." He turns around to face me as I walk up to him.

I grab his wrist. "Explain why you are not wearing a wedding ring." I lift up his hand.

"We never got married." He stares at me. "Why?" I ask as he nods for me to follow him.

Well ok.

I walk next to him.

"So why did you not get married?" I ask again. "She gave birth before the wedding." He answers. "And why would that matter?" I question.

He turns to face me. "I demanded a DNA test." He says. "Why?" I ask. "Simple... I never slept with her." He answers as my eyes widen. "You were cheated on?" I question. "Ya." He shrugs.

"Do you not care?" I question. "Not at all." He responds. "Did you even like her?" I ask. "Nope." He shakes his head. What. In. The. Fuck.

"Why were you even with her than?" I ask. He doesn't answer. "Hellloooo." I wave in his face. "Why were you with her?" I ask again louder than before.

"Why aren't you-" he cuts me off. "Because... you." He respond. "How- wha- ho-" I pause. "What?" I exclaim.

"I couldn't get you out of my mind." He says. "Understandable." I shrug.

"But, If I was stuck in your mind... why didn't you just call." I say. "Thought you hated me." He shrugs. "I didn't." I say.

He looks at me in shock. "I mean now I do... but you no." I shrug as he nods his head and looks down. Oof. Massive oof.

I don't know why... but I get a pain in my heart once I jaw him drop head. He just looks sad... oh well that's life. You get sad. Than you get over it.

"I have another question." I say as he looks back up at me.

"Did she find the father?" I ask. "She did." He nods. "Took a while though... she gathered men to take a DNA test." He chuckles softly. "It was probably like ten guys." He continues. Why the hell does he find getting cheated on funny.

"Who?" I ask. "It was some well known business owner from America." He shrugs. "So she's living in California."

There's a long pause... surprisingly it's not awkward. Which is weird. Cause you know....

"Ezra." I look up at him. "I don't expect you to forgive me any time soon." He says. "But I do hope... With time, you do." He continues. "With time?" I question as he nods. He places his hand on my cheek. "I don't care how long it takes... I'll wait for you."

God he making it so hard not to give in right now. But I'm strong... no I am not.

"Ok." I nod and walk passed him.
