The Italian's eyes narrowed and his hand grabbed her wrist, none too gently. "You left me! How could you?! You're supposed to visit me! I'm your friend! You don't leave me! EVER!" He yelled at her. He sounded angry, but also hurt. He wanted her all to himself...She looked at him, her expression surprised but quickly becoming mad. "I have other friends too! I'm not going to be with you every single day! I like to see other people too! You don't own me!" She yelled back at him, no hint of pain in her tone. Her words stung him, but her last sentence made a smirk creep onto his lips. He tugs her wrist roughly, pulling her into the house. He cups her chin, with one hand and keeps his grip on her wrist with the other. "Oh but I do, bella~ Remember you said you were mine~" He leans in and whispers "Tu sei mio~" causing her to shiver. "I-I'm your friend! That's what I meant! I have other friends too..." She tries to get out of his grasp "Let me go!" She said angrily.
His smirk only widened "Mio..mio..mine" He took the hand cupping her chin and ran a finger down the girl's cheek until he reached her lips. "All mine. No one else's." She looked up at him, trying to hide the fear she was now feeling. She never knew she meant 'mine' in this way..."I-I'm not yours! I'm not!!" She yelled at him, her voice shaking. He frowned and took out his knife, holding it to neck in warning "You are mine" He says possessively "No one else can have you, no one else will touch you." She looked at him, then at the knife, scaredly. She tried to back away but he only came closer. Just give him what he wants. He'll let you go eventually.. "O-okay...Put the blade away, please..." She said as she eyed the knife that was still aimed toward her neck. Nodding, the boy returned the blade back into his pocket "I'm glad you see it my way, bella~" He grinned. Grabbing her by the hand, he led her up the stairs and into his bedroom, sitting down on it and tugging on her hand so she'd sit beside him.
Ruby looked at him, keeping a blank expression on her face. She didn't want her fear to show, it would only make her look weak. He'd take advantage of that most likely. "So what, you're gonna keep me here?" She asked, glancing around the room. Luciano nodded "Yup. You'll stay here. Don't worry I'll take care of you" He said with his usual grin. She frowned "I'm not a pet. Stop treating me like one" She took her hand from his, resting it in her lap along with her other. He responded with a slightly crazed laugh "Pet? Well you have a bark but no bite. Maybe you are one" His hand plays with a strand of her hair "You're my pet." She bit her tongue to avoid snapping at him again and just glared at him, obviously mad by his statement. "You'll get used to it soon. Now I'm going to make you something to eat. Stay here" Luciano orders as he gets up from where he was sitting. "Tch..." She rolled her eyes.
Luciano lightly chuckles as he leaves the room, making his way down the stairs into the kitchen. He goes to the pantry and takes out a box of spaghetti and instinctively grabs a red bottle. He realizes he was cooking for someone other than himself and put it back, grabbing a bottle of tomato sauce instead. He sets the bottle and box on the counter and takes out a pot and goes over to the sink, filling it with water from the faucet. He heads to his stove, placing the pot onto it and turning the heat up to high. He patiently waits for the water to come to a boil.
Ruby looked to the door Luciano just left from. For a split second, she starts thinking of an escape route. She qucikly shakes her head, denying the thought. He probably expected her to try and escape soon so he'd have to wait. She'd have to play along..for now. Her eyes glanced around the room she once found very nice. However, now she found it prison-like since it was the room she was being kept in. She laid back on the bed, playing with a strand of her hair. "He was always so nice to me...Why's he gotta be so damn possessive all of the sudden?!" She curses angrily, gripping the strand of hair a bit roughly. She never expected Luciano to act like this...
While caught up in her thoughts, Ruby hadn't noticed how much time had gone by and soon Luciano had reappeared at the door. now carrying a plate of spaghetti topped with tomato sauce. "Mia dolce, I brought you some food!~" He said happily, walking over to the girl and taking a seat next to her on the bed. Realizing he'd returned, the raven-haired girl looks at the brunette for a few seconds. She grumbled something incoherant before turning to face away from him, not bothering to reach for the food. "Hmm? What was that, Ruby? And don't turn away. Sit up and eat, si?~" He gets a slight frown on his face because of her actions. "I'm not hungry!" She repeats in a louder voice, she was obviously irritated. She was hungry, but she thought if she denied the food, he'd leave her alone. The frown on his face becomes deepened as she denied the food. "I made this just for you, you know. You should eat some, si? You must be a bit hungry.." His voice had lost its friendly tone and was replaed with a cold one, along with a slight glare. "I'm not. So just leave already..." She said in the same irritated tone.
"Bella, you're being very disobient today...You should just do as you're told. You wouldn't want to be hurt, right?" He says in an emotionless voice, taking his knife again twirling it in his hand. "Hurt...? You wouldn't..." She says, her voice cracking a bit in slight fear. "Wouldn't I?" Luciano raises an eyebrow as he takes one of her wrists and quickly cuts it, barely breaking the skin. Ruby yelps in pain and holds her wrist close to her. There were tears threatening to leave her eyes but she was fighting to hold them back. He stares at her for a couple of seconds before saying anything "...Fine then. If you don't want to eat now, maybe you'll want to tomorrow..." He mumbled as he got up and walked out of the room, carrying the plate of food. She turned to face the door once he'd left, her stomach growling softly. She groaned and wrapped her arms around her abdomen 'I'll be out soon..I just have to wait...'
Three days had passed and nothing changed besides the fact that Ruby had gotten thinner and seemed a bit pale. She refused to eat any food and everyday Luciano would cut her as punishment, each day the cut was the slightest bit deeper. She had a cut on her wrist, neck, and her cheek. She'd developed a fear for the brunette, though she wouldn't admit it. She wanted to get out, she needed to get out. Today seemed like a good day to try to. She got up from the bed, stumbling as she slowly made her way to the door. The lack of food had caused her to be lightheaded so she had to walk slowly so she didn't fall. When she got down the stairs, she tried her best to quickly get to the door. She put her hand on the doorknob and at the exact same moment, she felt something cold on her neck. "And where do you think you're going, bella?" A cold voice asked, the object on her neck slickly gliding across her neck, of course it was his knife. Shivering and whimpering, the girl turned slightly to look at him. The one she was afraid of, the one she thought was her best friend..Luciano. "I-I'm leaving! There's no way I'm staying here and you can't keep me here!" She said as she looked at him with wide eyes like a deer in headlights. Her fear was obvious, she couldn't hide it any longer. Luciano laughed as he looked at her, amused by her expession "Leave?! You can't leave! I won't let you! I guess I have to teach you another lesson, si?~" He smirked crazily and stabbed one of her arms, not deep, just as a warning. "Still want to leave?". Ruby let a few tears fall from her eyes and she nodded "I'm gonna leave no matter what! A-and...I-I'm not coming back! Not after this!" She yelled at him, trying to get the blade out of her arm. Her words made his eyes widen in surprise then narrow in frustration. Removing the blade, the Italian man grabbed her shoulders and pushed her to the ground, getting on top of her. He plunged the blade back into her arm, digging into it. "You're staying...No one leaves me. No one ever leaves me" His expression changes to a grin laced with insanity.
As she was pushed to the floor, Ruby's eyes widen even more. Feeling the searing pain return, her tears flowed faster and she tried to push him off "Stop! Stop!" She pleaded desperately. Luciano's grin got bigger and he laughed psychotically, his eyes now glowing. "Mia dolce, isn't this fun?~This is the game I play with Siegfried when he doesn't do what I say~And now we're playing it too!" He starts to stab her arm in the same place over and over again. Her pleads turn into screams of agony. It hurt so much...Why was he doing this to her? The blood from her arm was flying all over as he continued his action. He stopped momentarily to bring the blade to his lips and lick off the blood "Delicious blood..Ruby, have you learned your lesson now?" He asked as he looked at the raven-haired girl below him. She couldn't answer, she felt like she was suffocating as she trembled. The last few days she'd lost a lot of blood, possibly too much. Her hands were clutched to her chest as her breathing quickened and she started to cough up blood. Her arms were still dripping with their own blood. She answered his question by shaking her head, she was determined to leave, even if she was injured.
He laughed once again. He couldn't help it, her helplessness paired with her false hope of getting out was hilarious. "Okay then, let's keep playing~" He put the knife into her other arm, giving it the same treatment as first one. Digging into it more and more, the girl's screams progressively got louder and louder as she begged for him to stop, which of course he paid no mind to since she still wanted to leave him.
After some time, he'd permanently injured both of her arms as well as an internal organ or two. Sometime during the process, her body had gone limp and cold. He was so into his little game that he hadn't realized this fact until he decided to speak to her again. "Bella, I think I've won, si?~" He grinned as he stared at her, taking a second to notice she wasn't moving or breathing. His grin quickly faded "Ruby...Hey Ruby, what's wrong?!" He stabbed the blade into the ground next to them and started to shake her worriedly. There wasn't any reply, of course, she was already gone. Her eyes stared off into nothingness as she lay limply in his arms.
You went too far, fratello~
I can see that, shut up! He didn't notice as tears started to stream down his cheeks as he stared at her corpse. The corpse of one of his only friends..He'd killed her. Terrified her. Scarred her. The guilt slammed down on him hard and he hugged her body tightly "Cazzo! Ruby come back! This isn't what was supposed to happen!" He yelled at her, hoping that somehow she'd return to him. He continued to shout until his throat was dry, and at that time, he layed her back down on the floor. Laying next to her, he kissed her forehead and held her hand. Before passing out from exhaustion he uttered a few words
