Self para [ future]
The brunette smiled upon noticing who the person approaching was . The dark haired man greeted the two bodyguards by her side with a few words. Giorgio seemed to be as excited as Alessa and Vinny for the baby to be born. He had even named himself the godfather before his friends had the chance to do it.
" Because someone has to teach the kid how to deal with the ladies. God knows that his father has no game. If it wasn´t me his parents wouldn´t be together yet. You´re welcome."
It wasn´t like his words were lies.
Alessandra was far too distracted with other things and people to see what was right in front of her. Vincenzo didn't seem to think he had a chance and thought that he had been forever friendzoned in her eyes.
Giorgio had been the mastermind that joined his two very stubborn and blind best friends.
And he never lets them forget that.
" You are looking even more beautiful every time I see you." He said, kissing her forehead in a brotherly gesture. " How are you two doing today?"
" What you mean, Giorgio is that I´m looking bigger.” Alessa chuckled touching her growing abdomen. “ I think that my boy is going to be a giant at this point, he just keeps growing."
She stopped talking when she felt a strong kick from inside and had to take a deep breath.
" What´s wrong? Is the kid coming out? What can I do?" Giorgio was starting to freak out and told the bodyguards to go get Vinny.
The two Sovrani loyalists hurried to warn the head of the family before the former movie star could stop them.
Alessa caught his hand and gently laid it above the place where the baby was kicking.A look of amazement took over Giorgio´s face when he felt the baby move.
" I´m fine. My son is training to be a football player." The baby gave another kick. “He is saying hello to his godfather."
“ Once you are out, Daniele we will have lots of fun together and I will tell you all about the adventures me and your father had...before he met your mom and became a domesticated cat.“
His reputation would be ruined if anyone besides Alessa saw the tough Sovrani second in command talking to her abdomen like that. Giorgio would probably beat the shit out of the other witness until the memory was erased from their head.
“ You have to promise me that you won´t let my son get into too much trouble once he is born. Between you and his father, I have reason to worry."
Her cheerful mood gave a drastic turn into teary lands.
One of her biggest fears after learning about her pregnancy was the safety of her son. The thoughts of Daniele being hurt keep her awake at night. She had lost enough people already that losing her child would kill her.
How her godfather Buddy had managed to survive after losing two of his children and his wife was impressive. How Veronika lived after losing both her mother and Marcello and the amazing job she had done raising Cara and Nathan alone was a proof of her strength.
" I promise you that I will protect Daniele with my life. Don´t cry. I don´t know how to deal with that."
When his sister Cristina was young and she cried, Giorgio would hug her and she would stop crying. Perhaps the same applied to the present situation.
"Where the hell is Vinny?" He asked while Alessa cried in his arms and he tried to comfort her.
" Right here." Said his best friend after the bodyguards went to get him.
Vinny was having a meeting with a Capo but once his wife´s bodyguards informed him that she wasn't feeling well he rushed to her side as fast as he could. Everything else besides Alessandra and their baby was secondary.
" And I really want to know why you are hugging my wife."
Alessandra rolled her eyes and stepped out her friend´s embrace to face her husband. Vinny´s expression changed as soon as he saw her tears." What did you do Giorgio?"
" He did nothing. Stop being mean to him." Alessa wiped her tears and pointed an angry finger at him. " This is all technically your fault, Vinny. You got me pregnant!"
" We talked about this before darling. It´s all in the book. The hormones are making you overly emotional. Mood swings are normal during pregnancy."
Vinny tried to reason calmly. He was used to Alessa's mood swings and was getting better at predicting and dealing with it.
Or so he thought.
The mobster understood his mistake when Alessa simply stared at him. No words was a bad signal. Very bad.
Even Giorgio took a step away from the pregnant woman and mouthed " You´re fucked " to Vinny.
Last week Vinny found the pregnancy book that he valued almost as much as a Bible lying in the fireplace of the living room. His wife had forgotten to lit the book on fire, but the intention was clear.
“ If you mention that book one more time Vincenzo I will make you sleep on the sofa!” She turned with a big smile to Giorgio and asked in a sweet voice. “ Could you get gasoline please? I need you to burn that thing for me before I murder my husband. And I can´t do that because I love him."
" Whatever you want, sorella. I could also bury it to make sure it doesn't come back." He even managed to say that with a serious face.
Alessa gave up her career but wakes to this face every morning. It was a fair exchange. We cant have everything.

Giovanna Vespucci
Mob Wife.
After the small vacation to visit the countryside with her children and mother, Alessandra was so tired that didn´t even feel her husband arriving home last night.
Most nights, Alessandra was a bit of a rough sleeper, she tossed and turned, waking herself and the person next to her multiple times. That night, though, she was pretty sure she didn´t even roll over once. Sleep had claimed her in an instant.
Being a mother of four children was no easy task. Thankfully, her parents had moved to Rome after her marriage with Vincenzo and Alessandra couldn´t be happier to have them around to help raise their grandchildren.
The men in her family accepted Vincenzo almost immediately. He was a second son to her father and the brother Enzo never had. Her godfather couldn´t be happier. And if Aunt Alessia was alive she would be as well.
They kept their relationship a secret for as long as possible. Eventually Vinny was needed in Rome to take the role he was sent to Porto Velho to prepare for but not before he asked Alessandra to marry him.
To say that the wedding day was a big show was not an exaggeration. The media were in a frenzy to know more about the man the big movie star was going to tie the knot.
It was her choice to end her career after the marriage.
Vinny tried to make her change her mind. He didn´t want her to give up her dreams because of him and who he was. It wasn´t a hard choice. Between her career and him, she would always choose him.
Nowadays, her husband and children are her biggest accomplishments.
Daniele, the oldest boy, was an energetic and curious child always up to follow his father and godfather Giorgio everywhere. He was quite the little troublemaker.
The twins Arlo and Cesare, named after their grandfathers, were calmer than their older brother. Even in the crib she could tell that they were watching everything and everyone while plotting their next move.To make things more interesting, the two boys had inherited their mother´s angelic look. They got away with everything.
Their little miracle, Giovanna, was still a baby. After an assassination attempt against Vincenzo, Alessandra was caught in the crossfire and almost lost the unborn child and her life. The streets of Rome had seen blood after the attack.
When the brunette woke in the morning and tried to sit upright a heavy weight was pressed across her, keeping her anchored to the bed. Alessandra tilted her head to try and see what held her captive… and realized it was an arm.
Bronzed, muscled and draped right across her stomach.
She stared at the man sleeping next to her for some time. In her defense, Alessa loved the almost peaceful expression on his face when he slept. Vinny only had that expression when she caught him looking at her or he was playing with their children.
The longer she remained snuggled into the bed with her husband, the more her body relaxed. She was so relaxed, almost closing her eyes again that she didn’t even realize that he had woken up.
His arm tightened around her and she was pulled back even further into him. She let a weird noise slip out, a mix between a scream and a laugh.
Vincenzo touched his mouth to hers, saying softly against her lips. " I don´t like waking without you, Alessandra."
" I know." she replied, kissing him back and chuckled. " Giorgio messaged me a couple of times begging me to come back sooner. because you were driving him and everyone else insane with your bad mood."
" That stronzo. I´m going to kick his ass..."
Vinny didn´t deny his bad mood the last couple of days, he just wasn´t happy with his best friend being a little shit and complaining to Alessandra. There was no loyalty among brothers anymore.
" How long do you think we have before the kids wake up?"
Alessandra looked at the clock. " A couple of hours, they should be sleeping until lunch. We had a lot of fun at the countryside."
The answer brought a grin to Vinny's face. Alessandra knew what that smile meant.
" What do you say if we practice for baby number five, Mrs Vespucci?"

A step forward.
There is a simple way for friends to become lovers.
One of the two…has to take a step forward.
Alessandra was having breakfast while reading the news in her Ipad when suddenly her cup of coffee was replaced by a cup of tea. She looked up to the person responsible for the sacrilege so early in the morning. He was smiling that irresistible and yet somewhat still innocent smile that made her gradually fall in love with him.
The brunette lets him get away with most things, but there were limits. No one disrupts her morning routine without consequences. It was common knowledge. The sun and the sea breeze must have messed with his pretty head.
The Italian tried not to drool as he modeled without a shirt in front of her. His distraction tactics were getting better with time.
Rolling her eyes, Alessa went back to reading about her ex´s new girlfriend. In what felt like centuries ago that woman in his arm had been her.
“ What are you reading?” He asked, placing a light blanket over her shoulders. When Alessa remained silent, he took a look at the screen and the grimace was immediate.
“ She looks like you.“ The comment surprised her. Alessa took a closer look at the picture and started seeing the slight resemblance.
” Poor bastard. I could almost pity him for losing you.“ There was no pity in his tone. Hatred? Definitely .” He is the reason why you won´t say yes to marrying me.“
She couldn’t lie and say that her boyfriend was wrong. Some scars run deeper than it appears. After all the years hiding their relation, facing everyone was becoming more difficult.
The fake boyfriends she presented to the world. Walking side by side with other men in events while smiling and pretending that she was having fun. Sleeping every night wishing they could wake up together. The secret getaways. The omissions… that were in fact lies.
” Don´t give him more importance than he really has. Besides we don´t need a piece of paper to say that we love each other.“
She pushed the plate of food away and stood up. The hormones were making her go crazy. There was no more encouragement needed. The last years contributed more than enough to drive her into the crazy border.
” Alessandra!“ She felt arms gently going around her from behind. He was always careful with her, like if she was a precious cargo. Even more so now given her current state.
She turned around in his arms and hugged him. ” The damn hormones are messing with my head. And I was never quite normal to begin with.“
” I know.“ he chuckled and kissed her. ” I´m the one that should be sorry. I just want you to wear my ring to keep all the men away when I´m not around to do it myself.”
“ You don’t need to.” The actress said caressing her stomach. A gesture that she had caught herself doing many times since the discovery of the pregnancy. “ In a few months I won´t be able to hide our baby. That should be enough to keep your peace of mind.“
His face lightened with happiness and then morphed into worry.
” What do you say if we take a long trip? Maybe to a desert island where I can keep you and the baby safe. Or we could stay in this villa forever and never go out.”
Thinking about the baby made her realize that she was forgetting something really important. Her parents. If her parents found out that she was pregnant without being married, they were never going to accept the baby´s father and speak with her again.
“ Dude, we have to get married as soon as possible. My father and brother will have more reasons to kill you if we don´t.”
Her handsome boyfriend stared at her. He waited to see if she was going to change her mind or not. “ I’m serious. I demand that you make me an honest woman. Go get a priest. And a ring… rings. We do need rings first.”
“ We just need the priest, darling. I have had your ring with me for a long time.”
rachael-parsons:
“With all due respect, I don’t think that is a very good idea.”
I know that I´m drinking too much caffeine. It´s either coffee or I will fall asleep. And I still have to attend a show today.
dante-salerno:
I’m not even entirely sure who that is.
Regardless, I’m not here to discuss your personal life, Alessa. You’ll have no interrogations from me. I was sent by Buddy. I suppose he didn’t trust his letter to make it into your hands courtesy of the Postal Service–the old man is as paranoid as always–and I’ve been demoted to errand boy.
A friend.
There´s no much personal life to discuss. Anyway, thank you for the letter. It must be a written interrogation or something. My godfather only uses phones when he really has to. And even then he isn´t happy with it.
How are you...all things considered?
@Alessa
Théo: Sometimes you just have to leave the world behind.
Théo: That would only apply should I not be willing and offering. I never begrudge spending time wit you, Alessa.
Alessa: I´ve considered doing that once.
Alessa: That´s good because I kind of enjoy your company as well. :)
Alessa: Do you have any food allergies?
How many times do I have to repeat that I´m not dating Richard Walton? My life is currently pretty boring on that front.
@Alessa
Théo: Then he may of picked up a few things I tried to teach him. Makes me feel a little better.
Théo: We'll have to set up an introduction. I'm planning on a trip soon- Either to the Hawaiian islands or, if I'm feeling adventurous, Isla del Coco, which is off the coast of Costa Rica. It's supposed to be stunning. Each trip would take about a month and a half, but it would be so worth it.
Théo: Hello little Nero! You're always welcome on my voyage. But it did just occur to me that I'm supposed to teach you to throw a proper punch. Maybe you could come by tonight or tomorrow night? I can provide dinner, I have a punching bag in the gym room we can practice with.
Alessa: You should be proud. He never lacks female attention.
Alessa: I wouldn't have that kind of free time or courage to leave everything and sail away for too long. But it woudl be worth it, you´re right.
Alessa: Nero fell asleep on my lap and doesn't want to move. Tomorrow I can make time. I feel I´m taking advantage of you :(
@Alessa
Théo: Meaning he views them as disposable pleasures rather than meaningful pursuits, yes? Unfortunately, not every student, even with the best teacher, can be saved.
I do think you'd enjoy meeting her, and her, you. Perhaps I could introduce you sometime soon.
Théo: I know. But it's true.
Alessa: Ouch the burn. My friends say that he isn't bad company. And they are high maintenance. Actual top-models.
Alessa: Perhaps-> Please, yes. Thank you :)
Alessa: Nero says hello. And I´m tired of being around people. Any suggestions?
@Alessa
Théo: Laurent? Please, who do you think taught him how to woo a lady? I taught him everything he knows. And I've spent most of my time with Dominique. As with all great ladies, she requires careful care and attention.
Théo: True. I'm not dead. That's a good sign.
Alessa: Somehow I find it hard to believe. Your approaches to women are very different. Someone promised me that I would meet Dominique one day.
Alessa: That´s not even funny, Théo.
