Mafia Wars

Chapter 21

Angelo looked at me almost to say sorry he thought I was going to shoot him but I actually was going to till I thought again he wasn't worth it but when his shot went off I registered what I wanted to do and to realise I'm not the killer. I turned towards Angelo I gave him the gun as he took it and I walked back to the car opening the door I climbed in and started it.

"Santoro" I heard him yelled but I just needed to be alone right now lost in my own thoughts and I wanted to go to the one place I knew which was isolated and no one was around I turned on the radio and the song of Tiffany Alvord- Over for good played through the speakers.

After a while I stopped in the front of the house and walked over the yard into the woods and came to the hill with stairs I climbed them and came to the top I stood there and stared at the city lights twinkling in the distance.

Just then I let everything go I cried hard and held my hand to my mouth as a strangled cry left my lips I didn't want it to end like this I fell towards the ground and cried harder. I had no one left I was alone and now I didn't even have to worry about if my father would ever come to search for me again. I would never see my mother smile or hear her soft voice saying 'everything will be okay', my best friend wasn't here to help me out of all this mess and make me laugh at this moment when I really wanted to be happy and the person I trusted was actually the last one I would have thought would do this. Was this ever going to end? All this pain and suffering

I couldn't believe Conrad or Lucas whoever he was could betray Angelo like that, he betrayed me when he kidnapped me and the folder he planted. I cried for what I went through in that horrible place I felt the pain again I was so scared of being alone I looked up at the sky

"Hey mom everything is going to be okay" I said and sniffed

"He is gone now mommy and you are safe where he won't hurt you again" I looked at the city again

"I love you mom" I said softly and stared in front of me closing my eyes my life is finally falling apart.

I Scarlet Santoro had finally messed up my life. I am falling apart piece by piece and there was one man responsible for that. Angelo if I had never met him I wouldn't be in this mess in the first place I would be sitting in front of my crappy television in my crappy apartment watching a romance movie and wishing that was me.

I walked back on my own time to the house not giving a shit about the world right now and saw everyone was back as the cars where all parked. I walked into the living room but there was no one there I knew where they were I walked up to the study and opened the door expecting to see all eyes on me but it was empty guess it's taking a toll on everyone.

Well they must have gone to bed as it was just another day I thought. I saw the bottle whisky on the table and got a great idea I took the bottle and laid on the couch. I was going to drown in my sorrows I smiled to myself.

"Well here's to my messed up life" I said to no one and took a sip as the continents burned my throat

After a while and three bottles whisky later I was drunk. Yup I didn't feel anything and I was talking and laughing to myself I heard the door open and I sat up too quickly as the world started to spin I saw a double Angelo walking towards me.

"Santoro what are you doing? We have been looking everywhere for you?" Angelo said seeing me on the couch

"Why-y? I whiz right-here, you-you know m-my fath-er is dead?" I slurred my words giving a hiccup and looked up at him

"Are you drunk?" he asked and saw the bottles lying on the floor as he picked one up

"Nope but I want-more of that" I popped the 'p' with my lips and smiled struggling to point to the bottle

"Oh my God Santoro you're drunk I will deal with this tomorrow let's get you to bed" Angelo said holding up the one bottle and throwing it back down and helped me up

"I-I don't wanna go" I whined but he helped me anyway

"I should have known not to leave you alone" he replied

"Pleeeaase Mr Dee Luka" I said leaning on him and heard him giving a soft laugh at my attempt to beg him.

"Where did you find her?" Jim asked and I saw Ricardo in a blurry vision

"Jimmeee you my pooky" I yelled trying to reach for him

"In the study drinking where else" Angelo replied

"No big meanie" I said and pointed at Angelo's chest crunching up my nose to him

"Wait is she drunk?" Ricardo asked and they were laughing their arses off

"I had to have my camera here for her to see this tomorrow morning" Jim said and laughed

"Yes and not just any fucking whisky the thousand dollar whisky and not one but three" Angelo said pissed

"Oh shit she is in it tomorrow" Jim said again

"You have nice bums" I said to Angel and by this time Jimmy and Ricardo was lying on the floor laughing

"Now I want to get her in bed before she does anything stupid" Angelo said finally getting to my room and throwing me on the bad.

"Angelo Pleeeaase don't go" I said and through my drunkenness I still didn't want to be alone

He walked back to me pulled off my shoes and sat me up on the bed

"Lift your arms" he said and I did as I was asked he pulled off my sweater and made the bed ready

"You big bad wolf but-t still sexy" I said and got under the covers as Angelo helped me

"Santoro I think you should just go to sleep before you say something you might regret tomorrow" he said and lay next to me on the bed laughing at me

"Nope I like you've" I said pointing him on the nose

"Now do you" he said laughing and all of a sudden I started crying as Angelo looked at me

"My Daddy is dead- my mommy-y is in he-even and you hate me" I said as Angelo comforted me

"Gosh I hate it when you cry" he said stroking me on my hair

"Don't leave me" I said softly

"I won't now please sleep" he ordered again and I looked up at him

What I did next was unexpected even in my drunk state I kissed Angelo, his lips was so soft and I wanted more but he stopped me surprised written all over his face but he quickly covered it up

"You don't want to kiss me?" I asked him hurt at his coldness

"No Santoro I'm not going to take advantage of you while you're in this state, maybe one day but not now" he replied and I just stared at him laying my head on him shoulder and closed my eyes as he laid on his back.

I drifted off to a dreamless peaceful sleep.
