Gabriella's POV:
Matteo walks into my room. "Yes?" My voice comes out hoarse but I ignore it
"You alright?" He whispers, walking slowly towards my bed and laying down beside me. I was laying on my side, curled into a ball.
I nod and smile "I'm good. How are you?" I say in a cheerful voice, Matt obviously doesn't buy it
"You don't have to pretend with me, sorellina" he says softly, shuffling his arm under my head and bringing my body squashed next to his. We're practically cuddling
(Translation: sister)
Lone tears run down my cheeks and a few sniffles escape me. "Let it out" he whispers. I cry all my tears until nothing comes out.
"Was it because of the picture?" he asks softly, as if scared I'll breakdown crying again... but I shake my head.
This moment is so cute. It's such a good bonding experience. Of course I don't want to feel upset but he makes me feel safe and warm. I don't want this to end
Reading my thoughts, "Wanna sleep in my bed tonight?" He asks softly again
I nod, my head against his chest. He chuckles "whenever you would cry or have a tantrum, you would always sleep beside one of our brothers" he said
"I don't remember it since I was young too but Alessandro said you always favored him or Grey... he said you wanted to sleep beside me but our parents would always disapprove since we were both too small. I don't know why though" he explains.
I knew we were like a real family back then but it's hard to picture it now. Yes, my brothers all sweet to me but it makes me feel like something is missing. Almost as if I'm not the little girl they loved 15 years ago....
"Awww that's cute" I giggle. He agreed and before I know it, we've moved to his room and fallen asleep.
Normally it takes me a while to fall into a deep slumber but sleeping beside Matt made me feel so safe and loved. I was asleep within seconds!
——
It's evening, the next day. I was shaken awake up at 6am by Matt for breakfast as apparently I'm incapable of making food myself... whatever I'm not complaining. Grey made pancakes and they were really gooooodddd.
After that, Seb dropped Matteo off at school and Alessandro, Leo and Grey went up to the third floor. I left the kitchen where I was alone and went up to my room.
Seb had placed his laptop and a sticky note with his card number written on it on my bed. I spent the majority of the day trying to find things to wear but also to keep me occupied. I made sure I LOVED the items I was finding as I didn't want to spend too much money on things I didn't really want anyways.
