" No, that's dumb." I say as I watch Caleb try and convince me to do a hand stand. "oh come on you "too cool?" He says using his fingers for air quotes. "No i just don't want to." I say turning my nose up and crossing my arms walking away.

"You can't even do it anyways that's why your walking away." He mumbles sitting on the back of the couch pouting.

Oh my gosh this big man baby. I can do anything. "Fine." I say and walk back over and throw my self into a hand stand and start to walk on my hands. "Now your tr- what the fuck." he says watching me.

Feeling the blood rushing to my head and my face getting hot i stand back up normal and brush my shoulders smirking at him. "Okay, okay i won't underestimate you anymore."

"That's what i thought." I smile. His phone dings. I'm finally going to figure out whos been messaging him all this time. Three weeks all day all night. His phone goes off. Its been annoying me. Lucas too i mean me and him have been becoming spy's trying to figure this out. 

"Whos that?" I ask taking the easy road first. "Oh just a friend." He says as he continues  smiling and texting on his phone. Okay then. The hard road it is. 

I huff and roll up my imaginary sleeves and charge at him. "What are yo- oh fuck AHH" He says and starts running away. i chase him around the whole house till he comes to a dead end. "Shit." He swears as i jump on his back. "Let me see your phone dammit!" I say fighting him.

The sound of a door opening makes both of us freeze to see who it is. Zara then walks out from her room and looks at us weirdly. "Kids." She smiles and shakes her head as she walks down the hall.

Once she's gone Ceb stays frozen and i use that to kick his phone up and i jump off him catching it and running like my life depends on it. Actually it is. He's gonna kill me if he gets me.

"Get back here you little shit!" He yells and i clench the phone tighter and run faster. Room room where are you. I see Lucas's room and say fuck it throwing my self in and closing the door then tumbling to the floor out of breath.

"Who the hell is in my room. Oh hey." Lucas says coming out of the closet dressed in nice clothes. "Why are you on the floor?" He asks helping me up. " Look what i got." I say waving Caleb's phone in his face. "What how."

Banging starts at the door followed bye angry words in Italian. "i got the skills." i say throwing out ninja moves. "god your so dumb." He smiles pulling me to him and kissing me. Eager to find out who mystery person is i pull away and pray his phone is still on.

I look down and it still is. Hehe. Lucas looking over my shoulder i find the texts. A gasp leaves both of our mouths as we read the name. Emma. Oh my gosh who would have thought.

"Oh my gosh Caleb Layton!" I yell and open the door and see his turn from down the hall and i can basically see the steam coming from his nose and ears. He charges but Lucas holds out his hand and he runs smack dab into it. 

"Ah fuck what is your hand made of? iron? Damn." He says rubbing his for head. He then looks at me and then the phone in my hand. His eyes widen as he wait for our reactions. "You bitch." His eyes widen even more. "Why didn't you tell me!!" I laugh and hand his phone back. "Well i would have told you but she didn't want me to because she thought you would be mad." He says rubbing the back of his head.

Oh. " Well I'm not mad invite her over its be fine." i smile. "Wait. thought font you remember what happened last time?" I ask rubbing my arm. Lucas puts his arm around me and hugs me. "Yes. She told me she's over it now." He responds and that makes me feel better.

"Ok invite her over for lunch tomorrow." i suggest and he nods and leaves us for some work he has.

...

"Have you ever thought about having kids?" I blurt out as i lay on the edge of Lucas's bed. This last hour has been really boring. After dinner everyone went their separate ways and i came here with Lucas.

"Kind of but not really. Why?" He asks.

I guess it makes sense. He been working most of his life and i wouldn't want to bring a kid into the mafia works. I mean i want kids at some point but i want things to die down.

"It was just on my mind. though if i had to chose i would want boys." i say turning over and watch the fan spin. its quite before he speaks up. "I want boys too but having a girl would be awesome. Dad's little princess." He says and out of the corner of my eye i see a small smile. 

that would be cute.

"For names i would want something unique like starting with a letter you hardly see ever in names." I say and think of names. "I like Zade. That sounds cool." 

"Or Zyan." He says. "Ohh yea that's a nice one. Girls hm maybe Natalia." 

"Or Adriana. That's a cute name." He suggests. "Yea it would be."

The rest on the night goes on with me and him talking about random stuff and soon falling asleep.
