Chiara kept her head down as she stepped into the record shop, running her fingers along the vinyls as she walked past them. “How long do you think she’ll be here for…” She murmured with a sigh. “It’ll suck worse for the other two when she up and leaves again.” She shook her head and looked towards the door with a groan. “She’s standing out there”

Enzo shrugged at her question, “I think your best bet here would be our younger sister.” He told her. He nodded at her following words, “Let’s just hope it doesn’t get to that, honestly..” He sighed. His eyes followed to the door before shaking his head. “I mean I can’t exactly close it because we are open, but I’ll at least we won’t lead her home.”

“I’m so glad you said that because I fucking hate scrabble,” Sarah laughed before moving closer to him on the couch. “Well? I thought a gentleman always made the first move or whatever. I’m not comin’ any closer.”

Enzo looked at her with a smirk, “If you wanted a fucking gentleman, I am afraid you went hime with the wrong guy.” He reminded her as he leaned in a big closer to her, “Because I am no gentleman.” He shrugged letting his hand cup the back of her neck as he leaned over to kiss her.

“Yeah, I just having to resort to it, you know?” She hated the thought of it, but she knew that it was probably the best thing to do. “Um, sixties. Early seventies. Janis Joplin and Stevie Nicks are my favorites.” She even wanted a tattoo for Stevie Nicks, but she didn’t really have many hiding spots left. “I prefer records, but I actually have never been in that shop. It’s been a while since I’ve even looked for records.”

 “Ah right!” He nodded back at her, “Sounds to me like you should invest in like a record payer then and get some old fashioned vinyls.” He chuckled back at her. “If you ask me, it is by far the best way to listen to music.” Me might be a bit bias, but then again he meant it. “Fair enough. If you ever want do drop by, it is just down town.”

“That really doesn’t shock me, in all honesty,” the redhead gave a small shrug. She knew people back home did it without really caring about the consequences. “I hate to resort to that, but I might have to. Or get some music that can kind of block it out.”

 “It might be worth it.” He said, “What kind of music are you into? Believe it or not, we do still sell CD’s and such down town. It is luckily getting a lot more popular now than it used to thanks to social media and it being considered more retro.”

“She probably already knows, is at school probably bouncing all excitedly around” She rolled her eyes before taking another drag and nodding as he spotted their mother as well. “Yeah…okay” she murmured, ducking her head down as she stubbed out the cigarette and shoved her hands into her pockets

 Enzo nodded slowly back at her, figuring she had a point. His sister probably already knew that she was returning but hadn’t said anything because she knew how he felt about her. “Come on.” He said as he began motioning in the direction of the record shop.

chiara--russo​:

“She doesn’t remember the going back and forth all the time. She just remembers spending time with Mom sometimes and then how Mom had to ‘go to work’ as Mom apparently told her” She mumbled as she shakily took the package and placed another between her lips. “She’s going to be thrilled Mom’s here….which is going to make all of it worse” She sniffled softly as she lit the cigarette and took a long inhale. “Seriously?” She mumbled to herself as she spotted the woman not far behind them now, probably hoping they were headed home and could lead her there.

 Enzo frowned as she spoke, gritting his teeth together at the thoughts that took him back to his childhood. Seeing him own mother leave him and his siblings with such ease had not been easy for him to get over. Fuck, he wasn’t even sure if he had ever really processed it. “I mean.. We can try not to tell her?” He suggested, even though he was pretty sure she’d already know if she had actually kept in touch with their younger sister over the years. Enzo looked over his shoulder before rolling his eyes, “Come, let’s go to the record shop.” He suggested, thinking it would be a good way to potentially shake her.

“We shielded her from most of that shit…she doesn’t know better” She mumbled as she blinked a few times behind the sunglasses to clear the sudden tears that had started to sting her eyes. She hadn’t cried in years…before their mother left. “Yeah well now she’s back and who knows how she’s going to try and fuck shit up again” Her voice cracked a little as she patted her pockets for her own cigarettes, coming up empty

 “Yeah.. She was young when it all happened, she was easy to distract.” He said. A part of him was mad at himself for not having tried more to distract Chiara as well. She was also his sister, and he cared for her a lot more than he sometimes lead on. He fished the packet of cigarette out of the pocket of his jacket again, “Here, take it.” He said and shrugged. Figuring she needed them more than he did right now anyway.

chiara--russo​:

“Probably just wants money…that’s all she ever cared about. Money and fame. Clearly that didn’t work out for her in Nashville” She muttered, her voice sounding tighter as she pulled her sunglasses down over her eyes to try and hide her less than neutral expression. “She’s spoken to at least one of us….our sister isn’t quite as sneaky on the phone as she thinks” She muttered. “I’ve heard her talking to Mom more than once over the last few years. I blocked her number as soon as she left” She swallowed hard and tossed the cigarette butt to the ground to stomp on it with more force than necessary.

 “Yeeah.. Good thing dad doesn’t have a lot of that, so hopefully she is going ot stay away from him.” He said, even though he figured she was back for a reason and that their dad was probably high on her list. He looked over at her, “Really?” He asked, not aware that she had been in contact with their youngest sister. He looked at her as he continued to inhale off his own nicotine stick, “Yeah well, I am just glad to have her out of my life.”

“Finally, something we can agree on,” Sarah smirked. She shrugged her shoulders and sat up straight on the couch. She didn’t want to be the one to initiate it in case he thought she was too eager. It was like a game between them both, but she wasn’t quite sure on who was going to be the winner or loser. “We can play scrabble, or we can make out. Those are the options.”

 Enzo looked at her, “Scrabble?” He said, raising an eyebrow at her, “Fuck that, I guess we are just going to have to make out then, because I don’t even own fucking scrabble.” He told her with a shrug before offering her a teasing smirk.

She didn’t look back as she walked away from the table, even as she heard her brother speak to their mother, knowing she had to have attempted to hug him or something of the likes. “Why would she come here, she hasn’t spoken to us in…years.” She muttered, taking another long drag from the cigarette and exhaling slowly as she ran her other hand through her hair. “She hasn’t spoken to me at all since she fucking left” She shook her head, swallowing around the lump that had formed in her throat, her hand shaking a little as she brought her cigarette to her lips once more. “You think Dad knows she’s here?”

 Enzo managed to catch up to her, looking over his shoulder to make sure the woman wasn’t following them. It appeared she wasn’t, which really didn’t surprise him. Why would she suddenly start caring now? “I dunno Chi, but something for sure is up.” He responded, inhaling a deeper drag of his cigarette before exhaling the smoke. “I know.. She hasn’t spoken to any of us, which is why I am so surprised as to why she is even here.” He added with a shrug. “I would fuckin’ hope not. I hope she stays the fuck away from him, because he is still hung up on her.”

[itsenzorusso]

chiara--russo​:

Chiara quickly took one of the cigarettes when offered. placing it between her lips and snatching the lighter from him to light her own, taking a long drag as soon as it was lit. “Why the fuck would she even think to come here, after all that shit” She grumbled before looking up to see the woman staring back at them. “Fucking hell” She shook her head, running her fingers through her hair. “I’m not dealing with this” She pulled her bag over her shoulder and  turned on her heel

 Enzo continued to take a pull of his cigarette, watching his sister a little as he looked just as stressed as he did at the moment. Or at least he was internally. He rarely let emotions show. “I dunno Chi, but something is up and I don’t fucking trust it.” He muttered in response to her words. Enzo watcher their mom come closer to them, looking over as Chi went to walk away only to feel the familiar embrace wrap around his body. He was quick to shove her away, “Get the fuck off me.” He said, reaching for his stuff, tossing some of the money onto the table to pay for the drinks, “I don’t know why you are here, but we don’t want you here so get lost.” He said before he began following his sister.

“Because you’re a complete weirdo who doesn’t have any human emotions,” Sarah countered with a wink. She shrugged her shoulders at his question, biting on her bottom lip slightly. “There’s a few solutions to the problem, if you ask me.” She took the cigarette from his hand and inhaled it before passing it back to him. 

 Enzo laughed back at her, “I am not even going to sit here and pretend that that isn’t true.” He told her with a shrug, seeing he had been through some things n his life that had kind of just made him that way. It was just easier that way. “Like what?” He smirked back at her. 

[itsenzorusso]

chiara--russo​:

Chiara could feel her stomach churning as she watched the woman speaking to the kid behind the counter. When Enzo stood she followed suit, scooping her bag up. “Yeah well she never had a lick of sense. Thinking she was going to make it as some big star..give me a break” She scoffed hard catching the attention of their mother

 Enzo looked over at his sister, “Yeah well, by the look of her and the fact that she had bothered to return, I doubt things went all that well for her..” He said, smacking his lips together as he quickly pulled out his packet of cigarettes and took one out for himself, before holding it out for Chi. He proceeded with lighting it, looking up only to spot his mother looking directly at them, “Ah fucking great..” He mumbled a little under his breath, hoping she wouldn’t approach them.

“I always behave, I have no idea what you’re talking about,” Sarah smirked, turning to look at him over her shoulder. “I’m not joking. There was a time where I believed you were a lizard or something in a human bodysuit. Then I slept with you and that theory went out the window.” She moved to sit on the couch again. “I’m bored.”

 Enzo knitted his eyebrows at her comment, “A lizard in a human body suit?!” he repeated, “What the fuck makes you say that? I am not Mark Zuckerberg. Jeez, Sarah.” He said while shaking his head, inhaling another pull from the cigarette, “Bored? Well alright.. What do you suggest we do with that?” He smirked back at her. 

[itsenzorusso]

sarah-houston​:

“Then I guess I better stay then,” Sarah smirked. She turned back to him to give him a look before continuing her exploration, picking up different objects and inspecting them and placing them back. “Not really. Sometimes I forget that you’re a full human being, and you have personal stuff in your house.”

 “Yeah well - As long as you behave I don’t really care to be honest.” He told her with a shrug. He watched her and shook his head a little while she continued to shuffle through his possessions. Not that he had many or anything valuable. “Ha-ha-ha, very funny.” He responded a bit sarcastically, sipping off his bottle of beer before fishing out his packet of cigarettes and taking out a stick before placing it between his lips, lighting it again.

“I’m guessing they aren’t illegal here besides on holidays?” That’s how Pennsylvania was and she didn’t know if it was the same here. Holidays were the only time fireworks went off back home for her. “I was playing music, but I guess that’s not enough to block things out.”

 “Oh no they are. People just don’t always seem to care.” He added with a shrug, at least he thought so. It wasn’t overly common with the exception for 4th of July or New Years really. “Get some noise cancelling head phones or something. That might help. We sell some at the record shop I work in.”

“I don’t really know. I never thought much about it to do it,” she gave a small shrug in thought. She really didn’t even drink until she turned twenty one, in all honesty. “Well, yeah, because there’s nothing else blocking the alcohol. It makes you drunk quicker.”

 Enzo nodded, “Exactly, which is kind of the point of drinking in the first place.” He chuckled back at her while shrugging. “But sure, let’s get you some coke or something for mixing.” He added.
