chapter 56: cece

luciano's pov:

looking at my phone I sigh as the feeling of anxiety and stress fills my body again along with the strong carving of coke on my tongue.

I stand up and head downstairs into the kitchen. my eyes fall onto the bar and my heart pounds luciano you're becoming like him don't.

I push through the urge and walk outside letting the warm air hit my skin. I walk down to the pool and sit on the couch. my eyes scan around by the ocean.

Who is that? my heart drops niki sits on the beach with her knees to her chest. I can see her tank top blow in the small breeze.

As much as I hate you right now, you are still the most beautiful girl I've ever seen.

I turn my head up to the stars and take a deep breath.

"see look luciano" mammá points up as the three of us lay in the field "that's a pretty big star mammá" lillian laughs a bit "you know, maria and i used to do this all the time"

I turn over and take a sharp inhale as my body hurts "is dad going to be happy later?" mammá turns to me "yes, when we get back home he'll be all better" she smiles at me.

"That's what you said last time'' Lillian sits up "and now look at me, how am i going to explain this at school" she points to her cut bottom lip. "your still beautiful lillian" she nods.

"both of you forget about your father and watch the stars" mammá giggles a bit and plops back down looking at the sky.

we both lay back down and mammá starts to hum "i love nature, the world is so beautiful. the trees,the sunsets and beaches, but my favorite is the sky." she sighs

"i love the sky, the stars, the clouds and Mr.Moon '' she grabs both of our hands "in a long long time when i die, i wanna be looking right at the sky. day or night that's where i want to be'' mammá squeezes my hand

"i love you both, never forget that"

I stare at the moon. I love you mammá. I'm sorry.

"hi my sweet boy" she grabs my hand "where am i" i look around the room "who are you" i stare at the man in the corner "luciano this is Dr.Romeo he's going to help" fear fills my body.

"what the fuck are you doing out here" my head snaps to a pissed off niki "i'm sorry are you the only one in this house who can't sleep" she scoffs "your a real dick" she walks away

nicoletta's pov:

I can't believe him. I walk up to the back door and into the house. I stare at the long hallway she's helped you before.

I take a deep breath and turn into the hallway and walk down until I get all the way to the basement. Chills run down my spine as I walk to her door.

the door creaks as i open it and she walks up "who's there" celia's tired voice speaks under the dim light "it's me" i walk closer to her and grab a seat along the way.

"What are you doing here?" she sits up still double cuffed to the bed "i just want to talk" i sit in the cushioned chair and she squeezes her eyes so she's more awake.

"about?" she yawns, this is so embarrassing "i just don't know who to talk to and i need advice" she shrugs "okay, considering i haven't seen a person in three days what's up" i sigh.

"My boyfriend is going through so much right now and I know he shouldn't be the same but it's something different and I can't figure it out." she nods
