The Mafia's Missing Triplets

Chapter Nineteen

Avery's POV

    We put toiletries in our suitcases while Quinn put our technology and books into our separate backpacks for us. We made sure we had everything and then headed downstairs where I assumed we were supposed to meet everyone although no one gave us any guidelines.

    Sawyer rolled the suitcase and had his backpack while I held Quinn's and my own backpack knowing that she was in more pain than she was admitting to being in. I hated that she was trying to hide all her pain from us. In the back of my mind, I know that she is trying to protect Sawyer and me but it was dumb she was the youngest and should let us help her.

    At this point, the caffeine was beginning to wear off and this trip was terrifying me. We've been free from them for a few days now and it's the happiest I've been in a long time. And now we are going back. As we headed down the stairs Quinn quietly whined to us in Spanish about us not letting her carry anything but we didn't budge. I knew that the whole limiting the languages was hardest on Quinn. She always hated speaking English though I never could figure out why so right now I had to decide if her speaking in Spanish could lead to questions I have no interest in answering. As we got to the bottom of the stairs she stopped talking so I didn't have to make a decision but we would need to figure out what to do about the language thing at some point and I added it to my mental to-do list for us which was growing rapidly.

    As we got to the bottom of the stairs we met the twins who seemed to be ready to go but looked confused at our giant suitcase. "Francesco," I answered their unanswered question not in the mood for conversation.

    They nodded and said we would be leaving soon and we mirrored their nods which made Adriano scowl and Angelo smile a bit. Adriano was about to say something when a suitcase came barreling down the staircase and the yeti came running down after it swearing. Sawyer had to guide Quinn out of the way and the twins burst out laughing and if my twins and I hadn't learned to wear straight faces in the sight of anything we would be laughing too. On another point, Adriano seemed to get cut off a lot which sucks because he would be fun to argue with.

    "Ohhh, was that Dante cursing? Oh, it totally was. Leo! Dante was cursing in front of our baby siblings. What a bad influence right?" In walks Francesco or Mr. Sunshine with a beaming smile and a huge bag of candy. In all reality, if anyone was the baby sibling it was him he still had an innocence that my twins and I lost a long time ago.

    Sir abominable scowled at Francesco, "This was you wasn't it," he flailed his arm at the suitcase exasperated.

    Adriano laughed, "I'm pretty sure that's just you and your clumsiness."

    At this Leonardo comes down in a suit and a suitcase, "What's going on, Dante why were you swearing in front of your baby siblings." Quite honestly it's hilarious that they think that we're babies and it's even funnier that swearing in front of us could damage us any more than we already were.

    When Dante hesitated to answer Francesco stepped in, "Well you see Dante let his suitcase fall down the stairs," He paused and seemed to start whispering to Quinn Sawyer and me but he spoke loud enough for everyone to hear, "He's so clumsy am I right? I'm totally better than him, that's why I am your favorite."

    The yeti scoffed as my twins and I exchanged a mixture of amused and baffled looks, "Mind your own business Cesco plus you caused this. You greased the wheels so it was extra slippery and when it fell I freaked out I was not aware the triplets were at the bottom of the stairs."

    Angelo hummed with amusement, "Are you sure you weren't trying your hand at bowling  and using our baby siblings as bowling pins."

    Dante went to reply but was cut off, "Enough of this Dante apologize to the triplets, and Cesco apologize to Dante and Dante you are going to lose your keys for cursing in front of your baby siblings and arguing like a child." Cesco cheered at this, "And Cesco," his smile instantly fell. I swear this guy's emotions were worse than the yeti's although he was definitely a lot happier than the yeti, but in all reality that wasn't a difficult feat. "You will be in charge of washing dishes when we get back from the trip for trying to get Dante in trouble and butting into a conversation between Dante and me."
