Marco's Pov

I walk in the room to find Aria asleep, she's laying on her side without a shirt and the cover pulled up right under her arm. She has created a barrier with pillows, separating her side from mine. I walk in the closet and start to strip off my clothes and slipping on a grey sweat pant, I open one of the drawers consisting of my jewelries and I put back the watch and ring I was wearing.

I walk out the closet only to see she's moved from her position and is now laying on her back, exposing her chest more. I swallow hard and stride towards her, pulling the cover over her chest and walk over to my side.

I grab the pillows from the barrier and place them behind my head, turning towards the side table and away from her my eyes fall heavy as I drift into sleep.

Next morning..

Aria's Pov

I feel something hard underneath making my head bop up and down as I start to slowly wake up to some bastard knocking the door. I start to slowly move up a bit when I feel a restrain around my waist causing me to stop and look below me. We stare at each other for what seems to feel like eternity before tearing our bodies away from each other, making the covers drop to my waist.

The knock again causes Marco to throw the covers up my body which I grab tightly and stands up to go open the door.

"Better be a good reason for waking me up" he says to the person on the other side which I can't really make out who it is.

"Sir we found a lead about the person behind the shooter, Mr. Alessandro insists you should join him in the office now, he also told me to tell you it was urgent" Marco sighs then nods his head before shutting the door again

"You really should consider sleeping with a top" he rests his hand on his hips, looking at me.

"You moved the pillows? why the hell would you do that, it's perfect enough I'm sharing a bed with you and now no boundaries on the bed"

"You can sleep on the floor for all I care if you really think the boundary is necessary,but I'm not sleeping with one pillow princess" he walks in the bathroom and grabs his tooth brush, putting some paste on it

"I am not sleeping on the floor"

"Well I'm not sleeping on the floor either" he shrugs

"Sleep on the couch then"

"You sleep on the couch then"

"god do you always have to be so childish"

"Funny, I should be asking you that question" he raises his brows causing me to roll my eyes

"Watch that attitude amore, don't roll your eyes at me" he warns

"Or what, your going to drown me again?" I snort but he chuckles deeply and starts brushing his teeth

I get up from bed to look for my shirt which I can't seem to find. Marco finishes brushing his teeth and comes out the bathroom, making his way inside the closet.

"Hey have you seen my top? I swear I left it here" I gesture to the couch but he shrugs, "not really keeping tabs on your clothing so how would I know" why is he always like this? Fuck I wanna punch him in his face

"Oh but I'm sure you don't mind keeping tabs on me" I run a hand through my hair, he grabs a black round neck top and hands it to me.

"Here, wear this then"

"I am not wearing your shirt thanks" I force a smile and drop it. "Well it's not like I have women clothes hanging around so it's either that or walk around topless but knowing you, you'd probably want that right?"

"Do you always have to be such a dick?"

"Such bad words from that mouth of yours" he shakes his head and heads in to the bathroom making sure he locks it.

I put on the shirt and fall back down onto the bed, sinking into the nice silk sheets. I stare up at the ceiling, not acknowledging the fact that Marco's now in the room with a towel around his waist.

"For a second I thought you might've died, made me feel a little bit of relief" he walks into the closet and picks out his casual wear

"Ha ha very funny" I stay looking at the ceiling

"I am probably going to be gone for 4 hours at the max so make your self at home while you're at it but don't get too comfortable"

"Hard pass"

"Well suit yourself" he leaves the room without any more words

Marco's Pov

I make my downstairs and inform the guard that Aria isn't to leave the house then make my way towards the car and drive off.

"This better be good for disturbing my peace this morning" I say barging in my father's office

"Good morning to you too, take a sit, we have much to discuss but first Alex has something to share" He motions for Alex to speak who hands me a file and begins

"I looked more into the shooter from that night and it turns out he's from the Russian mafia, hired to execute you and Aria Morano. It's been brought to my attention that they think we formed an alliance with the Spanish mafia and they felt threatened which is why they hired him"

Fucking hell, first the Italians now the Russians? who else the president of the united states?

"My suggestions is that we go ahead with it" my father jumps in

"With what?" I ask still looking through the file

"Forming an alliance with the Spanish-"

"Over my dead body we will not" is he out of his mind? forming an alliance with the devils themselves?

"Look, the Russians are a pain in the ass sometimes but if we have the Italians combined with our mafia, we'd be unstoppable I mean Alex said it himself they are targeting you and her so it's also protection for you both" he explains and I think that might just be the most smartest thing he's since my life started

"When did you get so smart" I comment but he gives me a smug look and then turns to Alex

"Good work, keep me in the loop of what you find next" Alex nods then leaves the room

"Well since your engagement is already up with Anna I suggest you have a talk with Aria and let her know she has to sign these documents and oh inform Anna as well since she'd be a part of the family soon"

He wishes

"Yea I have a feeling that conversation with Aria would either end up with me being shot again or me getting attacked by some random object but I'll see" I get up from the seat and make my way out, I slip my hand into my pocket grabbing my phone and texting Anna to meet me at my house.

I have a feeling today will go very very slow.
