The Mafia's Teacher

CHAPTER 34

*Stacey's POV*

After that blush-filled morning, I decided to make my way downstairs after freshening up. Lorenzo is still upstairs, undoubtedly deciding between which black suit to wear today.

Over the last couple of days, I have tried to forget my encounter with Jace. My wounds are healing, much to Lorenzo's perseverance with them.

We still have two weeks left of our half term, so hopefully I will fully recover by the start of school. I'm looking forward to getting back to some sort of normality.

I slowly make my way down the large stairs towards the one of many kitchens. Luckily, Mateo managed to put out the fire alarm, however it took him about twenty minutes to calm Almond down.

"Stacey! Good to see you made it out of bed." Keo exclaims as he sees me walk through the door. He finishes his line with a wink.

"We- I- We didn't-" I try to explain, but only stutters come out.

"We know you didn't actually have sex, I know Lorenzo would of told me by now." Thankfully, Mateo comes to my rescue. However, he ruined it by that last sentence.

Completely oblivious to all of us, Daisy had entered the room, and is now about to ask the inevitable question.

"Miss bloom, what is sex?" Daisy asks.

Oh no this can't be happening. I'm her teacher, I shouldn't be discussing or explaining this at her age. Oh god. Just as I am about to say "it's a grown up thing." Lorenzo comes in with an unreadable expression on his face.

"Why the hell is Daisy asking this question?" Lorenzo looks questionably at all three of us, but mainly Keo and Mateo.

Mateo, replies,"Sorry mate, it just accidentally slipped out, no harm done. I bet Daisy will accept anything as answer."

Lorenzo looks angrily at Mateo, but later sighs and turns to Daisy, explaining that it's an "adult thing." Good save.

Daisy then runs off to find Almond, after eating the last of her pancakes. I giggle at the obvious.

Just as I am about to reach for the cereal, a searing pain cuts through my stomach. Oh no.

I think I have started my period.

Knowing Lorenzo, he probably doesn't have any pads in this house, or any remotely female products apart from stuff for a six year old.

Just as I'm getting ready to sprint upstairs a voice I know all to well interrupts me.

"You alright, love? You look to be in pain." Lorenzo speaks up. Should I tell him? Why am I being so dramatic? He won't care, however I want to avoid that awkward conversation.

"I'm- uh I'm fine thankyou. Keo would you mind taking a trip upstairs with me? Please?" I give him the 'I need you look' and he slowly nods. I then sprint upstairs.

Keo follows closely behind me and we reach the spare bedroom, which has been vacant since last night.

Keo looks at me questionably and tells me to 'spill.'

"I think I just started my period and I need pads and tampons. Can you please go out and get me some? I don't think I can face telling Lorenzo."

Keo gives me a nod of understanding and replies, " Of course spitfire, I see you already have some comfy clothes," He happens to be referring to the T-shirt and sweatpants who happen to belong to a Mafia Leader, "I will also get chocolate and some paracetamol, how about you lay down?"

I am about to protest and tell him fine, but cramps can be a real pain sometimes. People underestimate how painful they are.

Just as I make myself comfortable on the bed, Lorenzo and Mateo practically break down the door. Lorenzo speaks first.

"Love!! Oh my god, you look in pain. Why won't you tell em what's wrong? Please tell me what's wrong. Is it you wounds? I can have the best doctor in the world to fly out. Do you have a head ache? Do you have-" Lorenzo rants until Keo cuts him off with four simple words.

"It's her period, dipshit." I see Mateo slowly back away, and Lorenzo's mouth form an "o" shape. I smile sheepishly and send a quick "thank you" to Keo. He knows I didn't want to tell him, I'm glad Keo did it for me.

"Uhh, um, do- do you need anything?" He asks hesitantly, but you could see the worry in his eyes.

"It's ok Enzo, Keo said he will get me some. I'm fine, honestly." My sentence doesn't do anything the calm him.

"It's ok love, I'll go and get some things. Don't move from this bed otherwise I will get Daisy to ask you that question she asked this morning." He finished with a playful glare and a kiss on my forehead, and presumably went off to find Keo and tell him he's going instead.

I slowly snuggle under the duvet and wait for my knight in shining armour to bring me my- sanitary products. I chuckle at the thought.
