His and Her Saviour

Thirteen.

Elliana

We got to Tarra's house and Stefano and Tarra went in first. I entered behind them and closed the door. Tarra's mom and dad were at the kitchen Table and I'm not going to lie they didn't look happy.

"Tarra" Tarra's mom said.

We all took a seat and waited in silence for a few minutes. I started playing with my hands because I felt myself getting anxious.

"Mama." Tarra asked. Tarra's mom Nina lifted her head up.

"You have been gone for a good two days now Tarra without warning!" Nina shouted.

"I know!! But listen Ellie was in trouble and I-"

"Enough!!! It's always Ellie isn't it? She has a home she has a family and she has a stable life what goes on behind her walls that makes her more important than us we are your family!!"

I tried to hold back my tears. I held Tarra's hand and looked at her. I shook my head praying she doesn't tell her parents what happens when I'm at home.

"YOU WANT TO KNOW? ELLIE'S MOTHER IS NOW DEAD HER DAD ABUSES HER ALL THE TIME BECAUSE THERE ISN'T A SINGLE DAY THAT GOES BY WHERE HE'S SOBER HER BROTHER SILAS ALMOST KILLED ELLIE SO LORENZO KILLED HIM AND NOW EVERYTIME ELLIE GOES HOME SHE'S ALWAYS LEFT WITH BRUISES AND MARKS ALL OVER HER BODY SO I AM SORRY IF SOMETIMES I WANT TO BE A GOOD FRIEND AND PROTECT HER." Tarra shouted. I was now exposed. I closed my eyes and tilted my head downwards not wanting anyone to see me cry. Now I have both Tarra's mom and dad judging me for who I really am.

"Ellie?" Nina called. I wiped my tears and looked up to Her face giving her a smile.

"It's okay Nina I promise it's not as bad as you guys think it's been going on for a while now trust me it's normal-"

"It is absolutely not normal Ellie!" Tarra's dad cut me off. "Where are you staying now?"

"At Stefano's" I looked at Stefano and he gave everyone a nod.

"As I was saying" Tarra spoke. "Ellie's been staying there and since I was there to pick her up before, I found out that Stefano's family runs the Italian and American mafia."

Both parents dropped their jaws. I have never seen their eyes practically pop out of their sockets.

"You are more than welcome to move in with us" Stefano said.

"I assume you and my daughter are together?" Tarra's mom asked. Stefano nodded and both parents sighed.

"Mama come on it's not as bad as you think-"

"No. It isn't." Tarra's mom cut off. I tilted my head in confusion.

"Tarra, when your father and I had you, I didn't want to live the life I was living in before. I was the former leader of the Serbian mafia but I left the second I fell in love with your father and I had you."

I'M SORRY WHAT?!

"HUH" Tarra and I yelled at the same time.

"I swear these two are sisters" Tarra's dad said.

"SO I AM SECRETLY A PART OF THE SERBIAN FREAKING MAFIA AND NOBODY TOLD ME BECAUSE???"

"Because it's dangerous my love" Stefano spoke.

"Wait wait back up isn't this a good thing?" I questioned. "I was going through a whole load of files in Enzo's room because I got bored. There wasn't much English on it but there was something about how your mafia is trying to form an alliance with the Serbian mafia. Can't there be an easier way now?" I asked.

Tarra's mom nodded and we spoke about the whole thing for about two hours.

After the whole talk, Tarra's mom decided to take the next flight out to Serbia with her dad and talk about her going Back. Her Parents said that we are aloud to stay at the De Luca's and go to Italy as long as we call them or Text them everyday.

"That was not the conversation I was expecting" Tarra yelled in the car. Stefano and I burst into laughter at how ridiculous it was.

"So back home now?" Stefano asked.

"Wait I have a question." I was in the passenger seat while Tarra was driving, leaving Stef in the back.

"Can we go back to my place? I just need a few things from there" Tarra nodded and we pulled up to my house. I asked Stef what happened to my dad and all he said was that he's staying in one of the cells back home. Good. I want to be the one to kill him.

When I got to my house, I climbed up to my window and broke in. I grabbed a few jewelry pieces that my mom left for me and a sweater as well. The last thing I grabbed was a couple of my favorite clothes. I shoved them all in a bag and threw it over for Tarra to catch and climbed back down.

"Ready?" I nodded and we went back home. It feels good to call that place home now.
