Two months later

Riley's pov:

"XAVIER!!" I yelled running into the living room

My. Heart.

Xavier was sitting on the couch with Olive and Waffle on his lap

Waffle was licking Xavier's hand like a lollipop and Olive kept putting her finger in his mouth

And what's shocking is he didn't look that bothered

Layla and Caleb arrived in California 2 days ago, they come to visit every once in a while every since that arrangement of My cousin Jacob

One month until I'm 18 anyway

"Hey" a grin stretched across my face

"Hello amore" he gave me a small forced smile

But his eyes lit up at my sight

"What's wrong?" I pushed Waffle aside and he gave a small sound of disapproval

I'll make it up to him later

"Alessandro just called" Xavier muttered taking a hold of my hand and playing with my fingers like Olive doing him

"And?" God he always brings bad news

"He said he took care of my parents and Jasmine situation and that he left"

"Come again?" I blinked

"He left. Called, told me I'm a mafia leader and left"

Excuse me?

"What?"

"Meet the new italian Mafia leader Amore"

Oh Shit
~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~

"Jacob? Dude?" I knocked for the hundredth time on that damn office door

I'm at his company because now I apparently had to ask for permission to go out

It's absurd

And that door doesn't budge and it's locked

God damn him

"Oh, Ms Stewart hello" Lauren, my cousin's personal assistant came from behind me

"Lauren! What is my asshole of a cousin doing inside I've been knocking for hours"  she opened and closed her mouth

"He's...in a bad mood" she averted her gaze to the ground

"Can we go inside or what?" Seriously this is ridiculous I'm an adult

"I- I guess we can try" she knocked once, twice

No reply

"Mr Hugo I have papers you need to sign"

Silence

"I need to deliver them in an hour, I kinda need the signature I have work to do"

The lock on the door switched open and I barged in

"Fucking finally" I glared at my cousin who was glaring at...Lauren?

"There are no papers are there?" He muttered

"Nope I just wanted to come in"

"And she lied to let you in?" He asked

"Yes, but with good intentions!" I justified

"Back to your work Lauren" he went to the couch and sat down

"I want to go out" I said still standing
