amor na máfia

Chapter 29- Forte

My alarm rings at 8am like normal and I get up. Nicole knocks on my door before peeping her head in.

"Breakfast." She says and I nod.

I gently wake Alannah up but she must have been really tired because she wasn't having it.

"Don't make me tickle you." I say and she groans and sits up.

"So we have miss grumy pants today do we?" I say and she pouts.

"I am not grumpy." She says crossing her arms.

I put my arms up in defence before Alannah climbs into my arms.

She immediately puts her head in the crook of my neck and plays with my hair.

We get downstairs and everyone was sat at the dining table and to say everyone looked exhausted was an understatement.

I quickly mutter a, "good morning." before sitting down.

I sit Alannah on her seat and she groans and looks up at me.

"Eat up." I say and she sighs.

"This is unusual, a grumpy Alannah." David says and Nicole and I give him a look at him telling him to shut up.

"I'm not grumpy." Alannah says and starts crying.

She climbs into my lap and cries into my neck.

"You know I'm just going to take her back to bed." I say standing up.

I walk back to our room and lie Alannah back down on the bed.

She scoots over for me to get in beside her so that's what I do.

"What's wrong?" I ask her and wipe away some of her tears.

"I'm tired." She says I smile sympathetically.

"Go back to sleep bub." I say and kiss her forehead.

"Will you stay with me?" She asks and I nod.

"Of course I can." I say and put my arm around her.

She comes closer and places her head on my shoulder. She loses her hands in my hair but it didn't take long till she fell back to sleep.

James walks in and sits at the end of the bed and we just talk.

"Grandma Dee is staying till tomorrow." He tells me and I nod.

"Okay that's cool." I say and he nods.

"What are the plans for today?" He asks and I shrug.

"I know Alannah has a few things she wants to do today and tomorrow, so we'll just wait till she wakes up." I say and he nods.

When Alannah wakes up it was 10:30 and I had a full blown conversation with James.

I also text Jax a few times.

I take her hand and lead her down to the dinning room where our food was left untouched.

After breakfast I take Alannah up to our room. I make the bed before taking her into the bathroom.
