Hero
Walking down the corridor to my apartment, I notice the door is ajar. My senses on high alert as I push the door further to see my jack ass of a brother sat on my sofa drinking my best Brandy. "Hello brother"
"Matteo, been a long time, what has it been, 80 years?" Trying so hard not to fly over to him and rip his throat out.
"82. Are you not pleased to see me?"
"Why would I be? You know you're not welcome, now leave" walking to the bedroom
"That's no welcome is it bro, how about a warm hug" I can't look at him, I have to much shit going on to have to deal with him as well.
Walking back into the living room "I thought I'd seen the last of you, hoping actually"
"Yes well... I got homesick" shrugging
"You've seen me, now you can piss off for another 80 years before Mother sees you"
"Oh yes dearest Mother tells me she's so excited to see Alice on Sunday, and I'm invited. Isn't that something?" being so smug I can see the glint in his Eyes. Marching over grabbing the glass from his hand grasping his throat
"You stay the fuck away from Alice. Sunday is off! Now get the fuck out" Throwing him to the door
"Calm down. Fine I'll go, but I'm sticking around. I have as much right to see my parents as you do" Closing the door behind him.
Pacing the room "Mum, what the hell were you thinking huh? Sunday is off by the way. He is going no where near Alice" I'm so angry right now, I know I shouldn't take it out on Mum but surely she could see this happening. She just wants a happy family, unfortunately that'll never happen with Matteo in the mix, not after what he did "You know Matteo and humans in the same room means blood bath?"
"He's changed, he's learnt his lesson. We need to give him a chance" She pleads with me, but I can't. I can't risk Alice's life, not after her request this evening, he'd grant that within seconds of meeting her without thinking of the consequences
"No Mum, I can't" hanging up. Sitting in my wing back chair by the fire. "Now what?"
Matteo
"Oh Alice, Alice, Alice, how nice it will be to see you again" laughing. What fun this shall be.
