AURELIOS POV
Saturday 3:45 am
I was so worried about Ari. Ive never seen her look so scared since the first night she got here. I just wish I could have helped her more. Don't get me wrong Im glad Sandro could help and she got back to sleep peacefully but I wish I could have helped more in the moment.
When Leo told us she was more than likely struggling with sleep paralysis my heart broke for her. Nightmares can be hard enough but not being able to wake up properly from them must be terrible.
Enzo had the bright idea to let Luca move in permanently into her room I was secretly jumping for joy. I knew he would help her, especially if one of us couldn't be there for her. I had to act pissed tho. I couldn't let them catch on to my excitement.
--Once Enzo came back from checking on Ari and brining up the idea to Luca--
"She's asleep now and Luca is okay staying with her but he was tired so we will talk more to him about it tomorrow." Enzo said his face looking exhausted.
We all nodded and shared a look of exhaustion. "Why don't we all get back to bed, it's been a long night and we have alot to do tomorrow." Sandro said as he yawned.
I had completely forgotten that tomorrow we are going school shopping for Ari. She starts school on Monday. God I really hope school goes okay for her, I know she'll have Luca and I there with her. We already have it worked out with the school to have her schedule match mine and Lucas so that she will always have me, Luca or both of us. Hopefully everything will go okay.
We all headed back out to the living room to see Ari peacefully sleeping and Luca next to her trying to keep his eyes open.

LUCAS POV
I couldn't just fall asleep knowing no one else was in here in case she had another nightmare and I didn't wake. I sat up in the couch watching her chest move up and down at a steady pace.
I was zoned out on her, paying attention to only her. Watching every facial expression and slight movement. I hadn't realized her brothers had come in.
