The Girl At His Door [Parts I & II]

Part II. Chapter-34

MERCURYS POV.

"Dude fuck off."

"No, I want to wake her up."

"No, I'm doing it."

"Not if I get there-,"

I heard the bedroom door slam shut.

Groggily, I uncovered my eyes from the blanket I had buried myself into.

"Hi." I said to Angelo.

"Hi." He sighed as he walked over to me.

"Is something wrong?"

"How'd you sleep?" He tried changing the question.

That can't be good news.

"What is it? What happened?" I sat up.

"I hate to wake you up with news like this," He sat down next to me. "But I have to see your mother."

Oh.

I hadn't even been thinking about her.

It was nice. Not worrying about anything.

But as soon as Angelo said something, every anxious feeling had come back.

"You can come if you'd like. Talk to her or Nicholas or even Violet if it would let you get some things off your chest. It might make you feel better about this entire situation."

It might also make me feel worse.

"No." I shook my head. "I think I'd like to bake today."

"Are you sure?" He furrowed his eyes. "You're in Italy, and you want to stay home and bake?"

I nodded.

"Well, I guess that's fine if you want to. Morgan is leaving in a few hours so- I'm sorry, are you alright?"

"I'm fine."

"You look- I don't know what you look like. Do you feel ok? Are you sick?"

I shook my head. "I'm still really tired. Is it alright if I go back to sleep?"

Even though his expressions told me he was still slightly worried, he nodded. "Sure. I'll be back in a bit, alright?" He excused himself from the room, gently closing the door behind him.

I laid back down.

I really am tired.

ANGELOS POV.

I sighed before walking into the hotel room.

I would rather be at home with Mercury.

It was a nice hotel, surprisingly.

Aren't they supposed to be paying back whoever the fuck they owe?

Looking around the suite, there was no one.

There was only one room I had left to check.

One of them better be in there.

Quietly, I opened the door.

Thankfully, the room wasn't completely deserted, as the shower was running.

Looking around the room, the only thing I saw on the bed were a women's clothes laid out.

Is she the only one here?
