Their Secret Little Assassin

Chapter Fourteen

"What the hell are you doing here Williams?" I heard Savio ask from downstairs.

Austin didn't answer instead he walked right up the stairs and into my room where I was still laying on the ground with my knees tucked into his sweatshirt and my head buried into my knees.

Austin rolled me onto my other side and sat down without saying anything.

He picked up my head and put it on his lap and started to run his hands through my damp thick brown hair that had a little bit of curl left in it.

He was silent still and kept up a pattern of running his fingers through my hair and wiping my tears off my face.

"Belle, Dad wants to see you in his office," Savio said through the door.

"I'll be back," I hoarsely whisper to him.

I stood up and wiped my tears fully off my face along with any signs of emotion.

I started my way up the stairs and opened his office door.

"Take a seat," he told me.

He had a look of disappointment on his face that made my heart hurt.

What had I done?

I took a seat and saw who was in the seat next to the open one.

It was Elmo.

Is he also in trouble?

"Elmo told me that you broke his girlfriends nose and dumped food onto her," Ezio said.

"She started it," I told him.

"I don't want to hear it. Elmo told me everything his girlfriend told him," He cut me off.

Elmo looked over at me a smirked.

"You are grounded for the next two weeks. That means no phone, no hanging out with friends, and no other activities," he sternly says.

"But-" I started.

"Isabelle Romano, I will have no argument. What you did today reflects negatively on our family. It's one thing that they are just finding out I have a daughter and that's reflecting badly on me, but another that's reflecting badly is the fact they'll say I have no control over you," he harshly warns me.

There is no point in talking to them if they aren't gonna listen.

"I have to balance work and a new kid. This is going to affect my work," he says out of anger.

I could feel the tears brimming my eyes.

I looked up from my wrists that I just noticed I was rubbing and saw that Ezio had his hand covering his mouth. He knew he said something wrong. Why isn't he apologizing?

I looked over at Elmo and his smirk was wiped right off his face when he heard what Ezio said.

Elmo looked over at me and saw the tears that were about to spill and frowned at me.

He was going to say something, but I couldn't stay in there any longer.

I quickly got up right as the first tear escaped and ran as fast as I could to my room.

I shut my eyes for a split second to hold in the tears as I was about to walk into my room.

I opened the door and tripped over something that caused me to land right on my face.

I held my upper lip and nose because that's what hurt the most and looked at what I tripped over.

It was saran wrap that was taped to the bottom of my door.
