Bab 9: Chapter 8
HADES POV:
(Since Hades seems to be the favorite)
I slowly and unfortunately opened my eyes and turned to see Persephone not there. I hopped out of the bed and walked out my door to see our father walking out of his door. "Good morning Son." He said genuinely smiling at me.
Wow he wasn't being a dick this morning. That's a first. "Morning Marcello." I responded with a less cold voice than normal.
He very clearly flinched at the fact that I called him Marcello. "Where is Persephone?" he asked me.
I wasn't incredibly worried this morning. I knew that these guys cared about her and would never hurt her. "I'm not sure. She may be in the main room."
We walk side by side into the silent room. What I see slightly makes my lips quirk into a small smile. Persephone and Salvator are playing chess. Him with frowed eyebrows, her with a very subtle smirk. "You can move your king to the left. I never said check mate." she said shortly and kindly.
"You know you're supposed to try and win, not give advice to the other team." I smiled at her which she replied by jumping up and into my arms.
"Good morning my little princess."
She whispered good morning and continued to snuggle into my side. She only ever embraces people that she trusts, I suppose that I am like that as well. "Good morning butterfly." Marcello said softly.
"Good morning." she said softly into my side.
He smiled, we immediately turned to the door where the other five boys were standing in the door frame. What was up with these guys always being together?
I guess I never had any of that. We heard a chorus of good mornings and rolling of suit cases. I looked at them and slightly smiled towards them.
I turned to see Salvatore shaking his head and smiling. "No one has ever beat me before! You're amazing!" he gave her a high five and she giggled.
"Alright princess, we have to get ready to leave. Let's go pack your things." I said softly.
She nodded to me and took my hand. We walked to our hotel room. "Alright princess put Ollie and your stuff in your bag."
I walked to the table with her bag and handed it to her.
(15 minutes later)
PERSEPHONE POV:
We walked out of the hotel room to meet with Marcello and the other boys. We're going on get on a plane! I've never been on a plane before. We walk downstairs and I see them all standing at the door. They turn to us and smile, I smile back with a giggle. We all start walking to the car and hop in. The ride was a bit tense for some reason, I definitely didn't like it. Soon enough we got to the airplane runway. "Alright, our jet awaits us." Marcello broke the silence.
We walked onto the jet in complete silence. We all walked to the seats scattered around the main area. Marcello, Angelo, Alfonso, Santino, and Armando all walked to the bar, "Princess I'm going to chat with them a bit, Rocco and Salvatore will stay here with you." Hades whispered in my ear.
I nodded and walked to the booth where Salvatore and Rocco were sitting. I sat next to Salvatore and smiled. I set my bag next to me and took out Ollie, I couldn't do anything without Ollie. "Where'd you get him from sweetie?" Rocco asked me with a soft smile.
"My friend gave him to me." I snuggled my face into his belly.
He nodded and smiled. A young flight attendant walked over and smiled, she was a lot nicer than the lady at the restaurant yesterday. She looked like she was about 20 with long blonde hair.
"Hi! My name's Daisy, what's your name?" she looked at me with a smile.
"I'm Persephone! This is Ollie, he's a bit shy though." I said.
I liked her a lot, she was nice. And really pretty. "Well aren't you two adorable! It's nice to meet you both! Can I get you anything to eat or drink?" She asked the table.
I smiled and shook my head 'no'. The boys put in an order and thanked her. "Alright I'll be back out."
"Are you sure you don't want anything to eat?" Salvator asked.
"Yup. I'm not hungry." I lied.
I didn't need to eat anything, I wouldn't want to be a burden. They shouldn't waste their money and food on me. I don't need too much. Hades usually makes me eat though, he says that I need to. I yawned and closed my eyes. I woke up pretty early this morning and I stayed up late yesterday. "You tired bug?" Rocco asked.
I nodded and leaned my head against Salvatore. I snuggled into Ollie, I knew that I shouldn't be sleeping, they wouldn't like me wasting their time. I felt someone pick me up and carry me somewhere. I felt a fuzzy blanket being placed on top of me, soon after a kiss on my forehead was place. Rocco. I tried to keep my eyes open but I eventually fell asleep.
ALFONSO POV:
We sat down at the bar and each ordered a drink, Hades stayed silent. We were silent for about a minute when Dad spoke up, "I believe you would like an explanation." he nodded. "It all started when you were 2 years old. We were attending a party with other Mafia members, who were trusted. Your mother took you and Persephone to the restroom alone, we assumed it would be fine. You guys were in the bathroom for about 15 minutes, I assumed that your mother was having trouble. I ran to find you guys and your mother. I opened the bathroom to see your mother unconscious on the floor and you two nowhere to be found. Years went on, we searched everywhere for you. I have no idea how we couldn't find you. A couple years past, an attack was placed and killed Innessa, your mother."
Hades clearly was less tense. He seemed to be fighting an internal battle, he sighed then spoke, "I understand. I do have a few rules for our stay." Dad and Angelo nodded their heads. "1. If you so much as make Persephone uncomftorable, I will be booking a flight fast than a white family to an airport." Improvement, he made a joke. "2. If Persephone is in any danger whatsoever. I will be taking her with me to hide until safe to return. 3. She's not going to school. I'll add more if needed."
"Why can't she go to school?" Salvatore asked walking through the door with Rocco.
"She will only be hurt. Bullies, girls, jealousy, boys, more boys." He was correct. She doesn't need to go to school.
"Hades is right. She will only be tainted in that horrid place." I chimed in with a nod to Hades.
"I disagree. She needs some sort of social life, no point in keeping her in the house all day. We could give her a body guard. We could even put someone in as a teacher." Rocco chimed in, receiving a glare from Hades and I. Angelo and Santino nodded at the statement.
"I have an idea." Dad said, "I understand that you are protective of her. I know I stepped a boundary telling you that she was definitely going to school. We can put her in for a week with two body guards and you by her side. If you think in any way that she shouldn't be there, or anything makes you feel uncomftorable with how she is being treated, we will pull her out and have someone teach her from home. The decision is yours, all I want is for everyone to be happy. It's in your hands Hades, just give it a week. We're glad you're back."
I still didn't like the idea but I could tell that Hades was warming up to the idea. "One week. We will have the same schedule. If any boy so much as talks to her, I will not hesitate to cause a scene." he spoke.
He smiled and nodded. "If you believe he deserves it, hit him. Preferably hard. Don't worry, you won't be in trouble, I'll get you out of it."
