Ephemeral

Chapter 17

--------Dinner time------

I was laying on my bed, reading through the "car accident" files.

Knock. Knock.

Urghhhh.

Do they not see my door sign??

"What part of 'see you in hell' do you not understand? Do I look like I'm in hell?" I hissed.

"We're having the Russian mafia over. Wear something presentable. Tell your friend too. Be down at seven." Flavio said and walked away.

I texted Wyatt what Flavio said.

It's six-thirty now. What should I do?

Ditching the case I went to Luca's room.

What's the point of having a twin if you're not gonna disturb them?

I went in without knocking.

"Hello elephant twin, I'm here to bor- ew ew ew." I gagged, shutting my eyes.

I walked at the wrong time.

Luca making out his-

"Hi, whatever-you-name-is. I'm Lucia, the elephant's twin."

I jumped onto Luca's huge bean bag.

Luca and the boy exchanged a glance.

"Hi... I'm Isaac erm.... Luca's boyfriend."

My mouth dropped open.

OMG HOW COULD I NEVER NOTICE.

Wait no. Now I'm confused. What about Aria?

Where is that girl anyway.

"Erm...this is awkward. Are you gonna leave or should I?"

"Ah erm... I was about to leave anyway." he gave Luca a quick kiss.

He smiled at me before climbing out of the window.

"Okay. I'm not gonna lie but that was weird as hell." I said once Isaac is out of sight.

"Lucia, please don't tell the others yet. I don't think I'm ready."

"Aight got that."

I jumped onto his bed tackling him.

"Boy. Spill the tea. NOW. And what about Aria?"

"Well.... Isaac's 17, he's kinda like a street fighter. Goes to our school. I met him through Antonio and he also kinda helped when your boyfriends tried to kill me. And erm I guess I was over Aria when she er.. When she turned me down when I asked her out."

Street fighter.

Cool.

Aria turned him down.

HAHA her lost.

"So he knows about the ma- WAIT MY BOYFRIEND?"

I have a boyfriend?

Who's my boyfriend?

I don't think I have one.

"Yea he knows about the mafia."

"And who's my 'boyfriend' who tried to kill you? I'm gonna kill them."

"Oh I wish you would."

"What's that supposed to mean?"

"Oh I don't know....He's the same guy who you call as YOUR BEST FRIEND."

"Wait, why would Wyatt try to kill you? What did you do to him?"

"HOW IS IT MY FAULT?!"

I shrugged.

He better have a good reason for trying to kill my twin.

"Anyway, the Russian mafia's family's coming for dinner. Help me pick an outfit."

He pulled me into his closet.

"Something casual?"

"Nuh. Flavio said something presentable. Usually he means suit."

"SUIT?!"

"Mmhmm" he pulled me to the cabinet with suits.

"Here," I threw him the suit and pushed him into the bathroom.
