“Antonio, it probably isn’t as bad as you may think.” Rias spoke gently while massaging his tense shoulders, she was also in a bad mood but Antonio was quite furious at the moment.
“I am calm, I haven’t tried looking for the wrenched Cold One haven’t I? He also spoke calmly but the aggressive frown on his face said otherwise. He had spoken with his father a month ago to talk about moving down to Forks but only got some upsetting news instead.
Edward had left Bella in the woods alone, and cold at night. Alone and Cold. She could have frozen to death, attacked by some animal, or even another Cold One could have gotten to her. He was furious, he had broken his promise, his contract to Antonio about protecting his little sister.
“It’s just,” Antonio took a deep breath, “my patience is getting tested at the moment.” While he appreciated Rias trying to calm him down, he was just very annoyed. Not only did they leave her behind with the knowledge of the supernatural, but they also left the mate of the dead Cold One alive, and she was now probably plotting revenge on his sister.
“I’m sure your sister and dad are doing just fine at the moment.” Akeno reassured, she was in fact positive because of the imp; she left behind at Antonio’s request. Unluckily, her imp had been finding Stray Devils and that’s what had set her on edge, but they were luckily weak level Strays.
“We also haven't had the chance to get Issei a Familiar yet” Kiba shrugged, he wasn’t too worried about it since Issei could barely summon his sacred gear sometimes, but it was something that should happen soon because who would be upset at extra protection.
“Can it be hot?” Issei asked, chilling in one of the seats, already fantasizing about the things he could do to the poor.
“Absolutely not you pervert!” Koneko smacked him on the forehead hard enough to send him into a daze. Her tail was swinging dangerously high in the air as stared at him.
“Koneko,” Antonio groaned, a migraine forming from the mini chaos that was happening right behind him, “and Issei.” He tossed a glare behind him, a warning if one might add.
“I’m sorry Toni,” Koneko’s ears pressed down, a frown gracing her face as she silently slide into his arms, tossing Issei a glare of her own.
"Does your head hurt?" Asia appeared, her hands already beginning to start the healing process from the light green glow they possessed.
"A little yes, It'll all be good once we get back on the ground." Antonio smiled, he rubbed Koneko’s head and laid back into the seat, calmly enjoying the purring she was letting out.
"Also your fine kitty." He gave her a good scratch behind the ear, and relaxed into Rias's arms, letting her cuddle up into his back.
“Such a busy man Antonio.” Akeno appeared drying off her hands, a small smile on her face, as she took in the cute scene of Koneko laying in his lap and Antonio relaxing in Rias’s hold.
“If only I wasn’t so busy, I’ll join you all.” She gave a pout, she was busy making sure everything was in place for when they landed, it was quite cold in Forks and the last thing they wanted was for nothing to be ready and Rossweisse to catch a cold.
“You still can.” Antonio chuckled, “got room on the other side of me.” He motioned to the seat that lay empty, it was Koneko’s seat until she decided she wanted Antonio’s lap.
“Sounds tempting, but I need to finish up my work first.” She frowned, “you’ll have to make it up to me later though.” She winked, already walking back towards her seat in the back with her laptop set up.
“Asia?” Antonio looked back, after she rested her hand on his forehead for a bit she had gone to the back to finish up her college work, or work of an Angel.
“I’ll have to pass also, Toni.” She whined, and the next prayer was sent in, this was newbie work and hopefully she’ll answer them well enough to get promoted after her finals.
“Alright then.” Antonio nodded, completely relaxed. It was quiet and everyone was chilling quite peacefully, in their respectful places.
“Only five more hours before we reach Forks, Washington!” A flight attendant called out, and Gasper pranced his way into the open spot.
“Rosswessie is sleeping still and is doing quite well for a seven month pregnant lady.” He smiled, excited. In fact that got the girls behind him and in front of him excited. A baby was joining the group.
He felt very guilty because he missed the chance to check on the baby a while ago, but Rossweisse was very understanding about the workload he had to take up and proceeded to take up his time the day after showing and telling him about all the things she picked out for the baby.
“She’s still sleeping?” Rias frowned, she was worried. Should Rossweisse be sleeping that much?
“Xenovia and Irina are still sleeping also.” Kiba looked around to spot the two knocked out cold on a loveseat together.
"Pretty much." Issei nodded, “Those two are always knocked out cold.
“Yeah,” Antonio nodded, everyone was a little tired, but also happy. He’ll let them sleep as long as they want when they reach the new house.
“There are enough rooms in the house for everyone to have their own rooms, but I’m guessing you and Irina would want to room together Kiba?” It wasn’t a secret those two were together, and Issei was enraged at first, but soon, sadly accepted that Irina was with his friend.
“Exactly.” They both were celibate so he wouldn’t have to worry about them, but maybe one of these days they’ll want a place of their own.
“There's an empty baby room right?” Rias asked, excited, ‘because we still want to decorate the place!” The girls had plans, since Antonio missed the gender reveal because of a faction meeting they decided to just surprise him later at birth.
"Nothing besides the color of the room was changed, I was sure you ladies wanted to decorate the room yourselves." Antonio smiled, every single one of them had been baby shopping and spending thousands on baby items and he couldn't help but be a little amused.
They didn't want help and they didn't want him to know what was happening, claiming they wanted to surprise him, he didn't know the gender of the baby because he missed the reveal and now they're making it a mission to keep everything a secret.
"Good." Rias smiled, "we plan on decorating it ourselves." She smiled and kissed him again, careful not to wake the two tiny lovers in his arms.
"If you say so."
