I got to Carmen's house and went right to her bar area. I poured me whatever was the strongest on the stand and started to drink. I sat down in the silence. I closed my eyes for a second,but quickly opened them. When I closed them all I could see was Domenico's face and everything from that day came flooding back into my brain. I started drinking more to blur out anything. I didn't know what I felt right now...or I did,but I was just too numb to it all.
Next day 11:50am
I woke up to the sound of my phone ringing. I was laying down on the couch my clothes were a mess and so was my hair. The tv was on Netflix,but the movie was paused. The movie was 365 days.
When did I turn that on? I looked at the phone to see nine missed calls from Morgan "shit" I think to myself. I get up quickly to get ready for the day that already went by quickly. After quickly putting on some clothes I called Morgan.

"Sky? Where are you? I thought we were going to practice today?" She says softly into the phone.

"Yes,yes we are I'm on my way." I tell her. I grabbed my things and left out the door.

"You smell like Alcohol" Morgan whispered to me.

"If I was to cut myself right now I'd probably bleed alcohol..." I sighed.

"I'll do better tomorrow."

"You better..."

"Let's start practice" I tell the girls with a smile and a huge hangover.

Elijah's pov
" Translation will be needed"
"Zander,what's up?" I say into the phone

"You have a visitor from Italy..wants to speak with you." He says

"Zander,no one knows I'm alive who would want to-"

"It's your Great uncle,Elijah he knows. He knows everything...he scares me." I laughed a little and told him to hand my Uncle the phone.

"Emiliano, zio cosa ti porta qui negli Stati Uniti?"

"Cos'è questo che sento parlare di te e di questa falsa morte? Hai ucciso Domenico? Dove sei figliolo?" He ranted. He kept talking into the phone without letting me answer a question.

"Zio, Zio. Sono qui a Londra sto bene, ma tecnicamente non ho ucciso Domenico." I calmed him down.

"Cosa vuoi dire, figliolo?" He asked calmly

"Voglio che tu incontri presto qualcuno, forse è il momento di un viaggio nel bellissimo paese".

"Sì, sì... è passato troppo tempo nipote."

"Mano Zander il telefono" I tell him

"Zander I have a lot to get done here, I don't know if Sky is going to be very happy about the instant move back. I will talk to her tonight and give you a time tomorrow. we're coming home."

"so prepare for two welcome home from the dead parties? one for Italia and one for seattle?' I laughed at his little joke.

"can't wait to see you too Zander."

OCTAVIA POV
Practice was over a little early today so the girls
Could go home rest and get a little more practice in by themselves. I was going over a few things while the girls were packing their stuff and leaving. When the door opened and in came Elijah. I heard a few girls let out a little gasp and others were staring him down. He smiled to them and gave them a nice wave of the hand before making his way to me.

"What are you doing here?" I asked him. He placed his hand on my lower back area.

"I wanted to come check on you,Mi Amor."

"I don't need you to check up on me,Elijah." I whispered.

"Listen Little one,Non voglio doverti mettere in imbarazzo gettandoti sulla mia spalla. You can have your attitude My love,but meet me outside or there will be consequences...I'll be waiting." He whispered in my ear. I knew exactly what he said in his beautiful first language. I've gotten that warning plenty of times to not know it by now.

"Yes sir..." I whispered back jokingly. He kissed my cheek and walked back to his car. All the girls were now leaving so I locked up the studio and made my way to him.

It was raining a little so I had my umbrella opened and so did he. He opened his car door and let me
Inside. He got in as well and turned to me.

"You look..." he stopped

"A mess?" I asked

"No." He replied

"Then what?" I rolled my eyes

"You look like mine." He grabbed my hand.

"What do you want Elijah?"

"What do you mean what do I want Octavia?"

"We need to talk." He continued

"We're going back....tomorrow after the recital." He says bluntly

"What? Why? What's wrong?" I asked him concerned

"Calm down,Love. Everything is fine. We're going home tomorrow night and getting on my jet the following morning to Italy"

"Oh,oh my God...does that mean I'm meeting your....I'm meeting your uncle?!" I semi-yelled. He laughed

"Yes,I guess so."

"What if he doesn't like me,like your father?"

"My father likes you,My love."

"No he doesn't."

"What makes you think he doesn't?"

"Because I'm a distraction..." I whispered

"You're no distraction Octavia,and if you were...it's worth it."

"You just focus on the performances tomorrow and I'll have everything else under control."

I nodded. I was still upset with him,but I was excited to be heading home. London is a amazing and I've made a life here,but I miss home. I miss my people. I tried to forget about everything,but I've been having nightmares about things. I've just been telling Elijah and Sebastian I'm fine. In reality I feel like shit and every time I close my eyes I see him. Domenico..
