The hot beast is back!
~~Later that night
~~Mateos POV
Rue was in the process of setting the table and I was in the process of trying to convince Luca to clean his toys up. And let me just tell you. I was definitely failing.
"Luca, if you don't clean up your toys I'm gonna leave." I say sternly as I begin to stand up.
"Wait! Don't leave!" He said quickly as he stopped playing and started cleaning up. I smiled in victory and helped him a little bit.
"Come on let's go wash up." I said as I reached my hand down for him to grab.
"Race you!" He smiled as he took off down the hall. For a little boy he is pretty fast. I smiled as I took off after him.
"I win!" He jumped as he touched the door.
"That you did." I patted his head and opened the door. I helped him wash his hands and dry his hands. "Okay, lets go take a seat." I helped him off the stool.
"Okay." He walked towards the kitchen. "Hi mommy!" He smiled as he took a seat.
"Hi baby." She kissed his cheek as she put a plate of food in front of him.
"Thanks for dinner Rue." I sat by Luca and she sat a plate in front of me.
"Yep." She quietly answered as she put a plate on the other side of the table and sat down.
"So uhh, I wanted to tell you two something." I spoke out nervously.
"Okay." Rue said as she put a napkin in her lap.
"What is it?" Luca asked as he sat up on his knees and looked at me.
"I have been thinking about this for a long time and I have finally decided that.." I took a long pause.
"Decided what?" Luca asked excitedly.
"I'm moving here. To Italy!" I said as I looked at Luca looking for his reaction.
"Really?!" He almost jumped out of his seat as he smiled widely.
"You are?" Rue asked almost on disbelief.
"Yes, I just bought a house in a neighborhood not to far from here." I smiled at her. She stared back at me with disbelief written all over her face.
"Yay!" Luca jumped in my arms and hugged me. I hugged him back and smiled into his hair.
The rest of the dinner was quiet other then Luca talking about all the things he was convinced we would be doing in my new house. Rue was silent the whole time. Never looking up from her plate and never speaking.
~~after dinner
"Come on Luca. Let's get you ready for bed." Rue said as she grabbed his hand.
"But I want daddy to put me to bed!" He crises out as he pulled against Rue.
"Listen to your mom Luca." I said sternly as I crossed my arms.
"No! I want you!" He started to cry.
"Get dressed then I'll come tuck you in." I told him.
"O-okay" he sniffled out as he allowed Rue to take him to his room.
After a few minutes I walked down the hallway but stopped at Lucas door when I heard Rue singing.
"Chiudi gli occhi
Non avere paura
Il mostro è sparito
È in fuga e la tua mamma è qui
Bello, bello, bello
Bel ragazzo
Bello, bello, bello
Bel ragazzo" I heard her quietly singing. I peaked over the door and I saw her sitting on the edge of Lucas bed and was rubbing his forehead. (translation: Close your eyes
Have no fear
The monster's gone
He's on the run and your mommy's here
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
Beautiful boy
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
Beautiful boy)
