Raw Love Vol. I

Part 36

Lorenzo's POV

"Just don't do anything stupid." I said to Ciro.

"What possible trouble could I get into in 3 days?" he asked.

"With those two, a whole bunch. Make sure you wrap your shit up and do whatever they tell you to." I said as I moved a couple things around on my desk.

 I'd be lying to say that I was a little unsure about allowing Ciro to go to Fiji. Even though I know the girls will protect him from others, there will be nothing protecting him from them. Ciro completely runs on adrenaline and impulse and I'm afraid they will take advantage of that.

"I'm not a child anymore." he said with annoyance.

"You might not look like a child anymore, but you sure still act like one." I said with humor.

He rolled his eyes and rose from his chair.

"I'll see you later." he said as he grabbed his suitcase and walked towards the door.

Once he vanished from my sight, I slowly got up and walked after him. Walking through the front door I saw the maids putting his things inside the car. Both Anika and Portia were out of the car and were talking to him.

As I watched them, I heard footsteps walk up behind me.

"Where is he going?" Ricco asked.

"A girls trip." I said back.

"He has no idea what he's signed up for." Ricco said with a laugh.

"No he doesn't. Hopefully he comes back in one piece." I said as I watched them drive off.

After they were out of my sight, I turned to Ricco.

"So how'd it go?" I asked as we walked back inside the house.

"It's a girl." he said with a smile. I could see how excited he was by the news. Even I was a little excited to be an uncle.

"Congrats man. You got a name picked out yet?" I asked as we walked in the direction of my office.

"Yeah, Gianna wants to name her Aria." he said as we walked into my office.

"That's pretty. I think it'll fit her." I said as I walked over to the alcohol cart.

"You want some?" I asked as I poured myself a glass.

"Sure." he said.

When I started to pour the second glass Luca walked into the office.

"Congrats on the news. I heard the Alicia and Gianna talking about it earlier." Luca said as he patted Ricco's shoulder.

"Hey you want a drink?" I asked interrupting their conversation. 

"Yeah, what are we having?" Luca said as he sat down next to Ricco.

"Whiskey." I said as I gave them their glasses.

"I haven't had this in a while." he said as he swirled the liquid around in the glass.

"Did you guys see what Portia and Anika got Ciro for his birthday?" Ricco asked loudly.

"No, but I saw Anika wondering around the house last night." I said. 

Luca looked like he was going to choke on his drink as soon as the words left my mouth. Weird.

"They got him this antique hand gun. He told me that Portia stole it from some museum in Paris when they were on a job." Ricco explained as he took a sip of his drink.
