phoebe was scrubbing her face with a makeup wipe in bed when she felt the mattress dip, jumping at the sudden darkness because his body casted a shadow over her. “hey hey hey, did you not see the little set up i made for you?” she asked pointing at the blankets and pillow neatly laid on the floor by her bed. sure she allowed him to sleep over due to the amount of beers he had earlier and the strength of her inner guilt if something were to happen, but that didn’t mean she was willing to share a bed with the troublemaker. his tipsy chuckle combined with his sleepy eyes made her heart skip a beat “i’ll promise to be good, i have a bad …back” he excused continuing to get comfortable in her bed. phoebe squinted skeptically, scooting away from him almost afraid of the feelings that might arise if they were to touch. the night had been an interesting one in the least he was tolerable and dare she admit charming. instead of verbally allowing it she continued to wipe her face free of any mascara stains and remove her glasses from her head to place on her night table. “goodnight” she mumbled turning away from him. “goodnight” he chimed back his smirk audible in his voice. his residual heat sent a chill down her spine, she hated that the thought of him pulling her close crossed her mind.
“i want to get married. right now.” babe quickly covered arlo’s mouth with her hand, to keep him quiet. “shh, the walls are thin.” she warned, though he could only smile in amusement under her fingers. they were unpacking in her childhood bedroom in LA, visiting her family to relay the good news of their engagement. “if my mother hears the news from anyone else it’ll be world war 3 up in here, you understand?” she whispered with raised brows, arlo nodded, still unable to speak. with all her brothers home for the weekend along with a girlfriend or two the house was full of prying ears. babe finally dropped her hand to his shoulder, pulling him closer for a kiss. “i don’t want to wait either” she smiled resting her forehead against his “but it’s best to do it after graduation, in a few months, so we can take time off after. and it’ll give us time to plan, not that it has to be big.” she rambled as her gaze drifted to the ring, she was wearing it on her right hand with a few others, so it didn’t catch her family’s attention on arrival, but the sight of it filled her with happiness. arlo nodded, knowing the reasons behind waiting as they had discussed it earlier but he just wanted to call babe his wife so badly. “i love you” he wrapped his arms around her causing any stress to quickly drain from her body as she pulled him impossibly closer “i love you more” to which he shook his head and she nodded both with large smiles.
❛ Close your eyes, you can trust me. ❜ / ❛ You got whip cream there .❜ / ❛ All my fears go away when I’m with you - ❜ / for mianna :’)
the couple decided to grab dinner at a dinner. sitting themselves in a secluded booth, not that they needed it considering how dead it was customer wise. “you got whip cream there .” gianna pointed at mateo’s chin with a soft smirk, but as he reached for a napkin to wipe at it her hand intercepted his, a better idea coming to the small italian. “i got it tesoro” she offered coyly wrapping her arms around his neck to bring him closer. never one to object her wiles mateo smiled as she kissed away the cream. “thanks” he murmured as gia’s eyes gazed at his lips like they were her next target. just as they kissed mateo swiped two fingers in the pile of whipped cream atop his milkshake and dragged them along her cheek with a smirk. gianna’s mouth went agape in shock allowing for his whipped cream coated fingers to continue across her bottom lip softly. “i got it princesa” he assured smugly. before she could protest her boyfriends childish antics his tongue drew a line through the assaulting cream leading to an open mouthed kiss along her cheek bone. “teo” she tried to object before letting her eyes flutter shut as his lips found her earlobe. he hummed softly as his hands found her waist holding her still as he continued to ‘clean her up’.
it had been a week or two since mateo and gianna were assigned to each other. they were just about getting along, a mutual respect morphing between the two, enough so that they were sharing more than a few drinks on her special roof. “close your eyes, you can trust me.” gianna smiled at her brazilian bodyguard to put him at some ease. after giving the smaller brunette a suspicious once over mateo let his eyes fall shut “if you try to run again doll, i’ll catch you before you reach the door” he warned despite her last escape attempt/test being three days ago. her knowing chuckle caused the corner of his lips to rise too “i’m not running anywhere bello.” she assured teasingly, though with the amount of wine she consumed she probably couldn’t if she tried. taking the scotch glass from his hand gianna smiled as mateo was tempted to open his eyes before reminding himself to keep them shut. she placed something wrapped in fabric in his now upturned palm, his fingers quickly gripping onto it curiously “okay, aperto” she directed. it was… a gun, mateo smiled at the sight as the fabric fell away, a nice one, like her brothers had. the grip was engraved with the soprano crest an elegant detail for the deadly machinery “from my father” she explained causing a rush of pride to swell in his chest. “obrigado, i know now that this isn’t the easiest job in the world, far from it, and i’m grateful he trusted me with this” mateo looked up from the pistol “with you.”
“all my fears go away when I’m with you” she spoke into the phone to mateo who was in new york for the weekend. he could hear the yearning in her voice and he wanted nothing more than to hold her. “baby, you’re going to be fine, camilla is going to be fine, without me for a few days. don’t worry yourself please, stress is bad for o bebe. if you need anything immediately you have freddi on speed dial and isaiah won’t be far behind her. you’re not alone princesa.” a shaky breath made it through the speaker as gianna nodded along with his words, running her free hand over her growing baby bump “i miss you tesoro.” he could hear her soft smile making him feel substantially better “i miss you too meu amor. i’ll call again tonight to put you and cami to bed” his smile grew at the thought “do you have to go?” gia wondered with a sigh. looking down at his watch mateo replied “i have four minutes.” he offered and gia happily took those minutes to update him on anything she had missed about cami or her and the baby.
freddi’s eyes lit up as the waitress offered them a desert menu with pictures, with a chuckle zaya politely accepted it passing it to the small blonde sitting beside him in the booth. she smiled as the words came into focus, she oohed and aahed at the desserts reading them out like a dramatic novel despite him silently reading along over her shoulder. “what’ll it be?” he nudged her knowing she could take all night if not reigned in a little. “uuuummm… the raspberry chocolate mousse? no no the key lime pie! or the lava cake…” she peeked at him through her lashes, sheepishly, to find that small fond smile on his lips that had become so familiar to her. “you choose” she decided with a tilt of her chin. when the dessert finally arrived freddi was glad he chose the lava cake it looked exactly as pictured on the menu with a perfect scoop of vanilla ice cream at it’s side. she did the honors of opening the cake causing the fudge to pour out as she made small excited noises. she balanced a bit of ice cream on her spoon before holding it up for isaiah to eat. he looked at her, the spoon and back before opening his mouth to be fed. “it’s good.” his eyebrows raised slightly in surprise with a smirk “well that’s enough for you” freddi smiled back, pulling the plate closer to her “ah ah ah” he laughed grabbing the extra spoon and pulling the plate back between them. they spent the next few minutes playing hockey with their dessert, blocking each other’s spoons and intercepting their goal whether cake or ice cream. they were laughing loud enough that the clanking of their silverware wasn’t what other patrons noticed. with the cake gone zaya rested the spoon in his mouth to get every last taste of fudge while freddi opted for touching hers to his nose adding a dot of ice cream to the tip, this only caused more giggles to echo from the booth. she cleaned his nose with a kiss loving the way it twitched under her lips. “thanks for dinner big guy” she murmured with a goofy grin. her stomach and heart very full thanks to the man in front of her. “anytime short stack” he replied with a soft kiss to her lips before asking for the check. freddi rested her head on zaya’s shoulder while they waited playing with his fingers happily.
