9: fluff

after they calmed down. they all got in the car. Ares drove the way. ava gave directions after the passed the place the dropped her off the other day. the boys didn't hide the fact they didn't like that she was staying at a shitty hotel. ava got herself alone.

she hid the phone and money in her bag. she new they were her brothers, but the instinct's to be prepared for anything took over her mind a bit. she only took five minute's. she had all her dirty cloths in a trash bag. damian put them in the truck along with the bag. it was hot out. a thin layer of sweat covered everybody forehead. Ares turned on the AC cooling everyone off.

ava sat between damian and hades. Ares and hermes were up front. damian was wearing black jeans and a white t-shirt. he also had a leather coat but the insides were fuzzy. hades changed his cloths( or ares would not have let him in the car) to a black shirt and blue jeans.

ava gently grabbed the corner of damian coat, flipped it over. started to run the tips of her fingers on the fuzz. ava had a memorized look on her face. her mother never let her have anything with fuzz on them. even when ava managed to buy one. her mom would find it and burn it in front of her. she had no friends so she could not have access to the fuzz.

damian had no clue what she was doing. he was to busy looking at hermes who was laughing his ass off. hermes looked back at him glancing down and laughing harder then before. damian with a scowl on his face turned to hades. he glared at him as he smirked not looking at damian.

" what the fuck are you laughing at?" he asked, full attention on hermes.

" look down dude." hades said letting out a laugh.

damian looked back and fourth at them confused. he looked down. only to see ava, playing with the inside of his coat. not noticing the loud fuckers laughing. damian looked at her weirded out. he decided to ignore it and leave her be.

after two hours of driving ava feel asleep on damian shoulder. damian would hold her face when ever the car rocked to the side so she would not fall over and wake up. the drive was about 8 hours. they had a pent house near the city. two story high with 3 bathroom and 8 room. a good cover for their kind of business.

" who going to tell dad?" hades said. Ares slammed on the breaks.

"FUCK!" he yelled, waking up ava.

"oh what the hell." she id rubbing her eyes. 

she got off damian shoulder. she yawed strenching her arms out hitting hades in the eye.

"OW!" ava didn't loom at him but said " your fault for being there."

all the boy looked at her confused. they didn't say anything as she fell back to sleep once again on damian shoulder. the rest of the ride was quite. soon enough they made it to the house. ava was laid on top of damian lap.

she woke up a hour before yelling WHILE climbing into damian lap saying " this bitch cold!" then feel right back to sleep.

ares picked her up from damian, carrying her into the house.

" hermes, buy plane tickets to Italy. we are leaving tomorrow. David and alerosso can finish the job. then come to my office. all of you." he said moving out of sight.

he walked into the empty bedroom besides his and hades and laid ava on the bed. he tucked her in and kissed her forehead softly.

" bunonaotte sorellina." then left the room. closing the door he walked into the office and sat down. soon hermes walked into the room. ready for what was going to be discussed between them all.

" we will take a two mouth break from work .i will call dad and tell him what's going on. no one in the family will know we found her. when the ball is set nd ava give consent to go they will know. objections?" ares said with  his hand folded under his chin.

" what if she doesn't what to do the ball?" hades asked.

" then we will invite little by little of the family to the house to meet her." ares said.

all the boy shared a look and all agreed with the plan. they headed to their rooms. hades feel fast asleep. Ares read a book for a while before falling and sleep. hermes watched tv shows then fell asleep halfway through "10 things i hate about you". damian on the other hand had anosmia. he was diagnosed when he was 12. after there mom ran off with ava he feel into a deep depression. he stayed awake for days straight, only falling asleep by passing out at random times. he refused to eat meals, almost starving to death. Ares found him on the floor in the bathroom sink covered in cut with a razer in his hand.

their father sent him to rehab for two years. in the end he had scars and a permanent shitty sleeping schedule. he laid in the bathroom tube filled with warm water. he had boxers on. he traced the scars on his stomach and arm that were not covered in tattoos with delicacy.

sometimes he would think, late at night. what if? he never found out what the what if was. he just thought for hours what if. he could not think of a answer for it. he felt dumb at times to think such a stupide thing.

a knock on the door rang threw the bath room door. his room was the only one with a attached bathroom to it. damian got out the tube, wetting the floor and carpet. his wet boxers dripped water down his legs to the floor as he walked.

he opened the door to ava. she was half asleep but awake enough to notice how wet he was. she said nothing as he let her in. he looked around. she walked over to a door opening i to see his closet. she walked in and walked out with folded cloth. she fallowed the trail of water to the bathroom. she put her hand in the water to feel it was cold. she drained it s damian watched from the doorway.

after the water was gone she turned on the facet to a warm but cold temperature." i personally star off warm then stay in when its cold. gives it a time capsule feeling." she said standing up and looking him in the eyes.

" ill leave your cloth here." she added setting the folded cloths on the counter. she left the room, leaving by himself alone again.

" ok." he said to himself getting in the tub again.

two hours later he was in his bed with the clothing she had picked out for him. he cuddled up with his blanket. he fell asleep.
