When Abbacchio woke up with a soft throw pillow under his head instead of Bruno's soft lap he was, well, he was upset but when he found Bruno sitting at the kitchen table with that thing he was furious. Why the hell would Bruno bring the creature inside?! What if the creature implanted things in all of their chests and the got killed with a chest-burster like in that stupid alien movie that Mista watched, Abbacchio would take it to his grave that the Alien movie terrified him, like a week ago.

"BRUNO!" Bruno turned to look at Abbacchio while the little creature took small bites from a chocolate orange. Bruno couldn't help but chuckle when he saw the look of terror on Abbacchio's face,

"Hello, amore."

"What the hell are you doing with with...THAT!"

"Ah yes, he apologized for scaring you." Abbacchio looked at the creature with a raised eyebrow,

"Really now?"

"Yes, he did." Bruno said as he placed his index finger on the tiny creature's head and gently rubbed his head. Abbacchio looked on in disbelief as the tiny creature smiled happily at Bruno,

"....I don't trust it."

"Of course you don't." Abbacchio went to say something when he was interrupted by the front door being slammed open,

"WE'RE HOOOOME!" Mista yelled, both Abbacchio and Bruno looked in shock as the winged creature jumped and covered his ears while he closed his eyes tightly.

"Abba! Bruno! We got some cakes!" Narancia said as he skipped into the kitchen while the other three walked calmly to the kitchen.

"Uh...what's that?" Trish asked as she looked directly at the tiny creature. The other teenagers looked at the small creature on the table

"We don't know. We found him earlier." Abbacchio said

"He was hiding in a pot....and scared Abbacchio. He screamed like a child." Bruno said as Abbaccio scowled, Mista sat at the table and looked at the moth-like creature. The creature looked at Mista and very carefully stood up and walked over to him,

"He's so small. Could he be a stand?"

"We don't know, he could be a stand." The talking of his family all faded in the background as Mista and the moth creature just looked at each other. Mista held his hand out and the creature climbed into his palm,

"He's so small....and fragile looking." Mista said everyone looked towards them. Bruno smiled when he saw how gentle Mista was treating the small creature. Which wasn't a surprise considering what his stand was.

".....can we keep him?" Narancia asked as he poked out from behind Mista, the moth smiled at Narancia and flew out of Mistas hand and onto Narancia's shoulder.

"No."

"If he wishes to stay he can stay." Abbacchio and Bruno said at the same time,

"We are not keeping that thing!"

"Abbacchio."

"No! We don't know what that thing is! It could be an enemy stand for all we know!"

"How can something this cute be a stand?"

"Sex Pistols is cute and they're a stand."

"They are not cute."

"Shut up Trish."

"Trish. Mista. Stop fighting." Bruno said with a sigh.

"....I...Sorry." It was a soft voice that no one heard before, all eyes looked towards the moth creature that was sitting on Narancia's shoulder.

"....Did...did he speak..." Bruno asked shocked,

"Y...Yes?" Bruno shook his head and smiled at the moth,

"You can speak?" The moth gave a timid nod,

"Do you have a name?"

"....Giorno."

"Giorno, ok. Can I ask what you are?"

"....I...moth."

"Moth huh." Giorno just nodded.

"Why are you here."

"Abbacchio!"

"...I...Giorno. Have...a dream."

"A...dream?"

"...nyes. A dream...of big family." Giorno said with a determined smile. Everyone in the room, Abbacchio included, felt their hearts warm.

"Do...do you have a family?" Bruno asked

"...Just mama."

"Where is she?"

"....Mama is taking a nap."

"Oh?" Giorno just nodded

"She said she's taking a nap to see padre...padre took a nap years ago! Before I was born. Mama really missed papa." Everyone looked at the tiny moth with varying looks of sadness.

"...would you like to stay with us until your mama wakes up?" Abbacchio asked much to everyone's surprise. Giorno looked at Abbacchio and smiled

"...Can I?"

"Of course...a tiny thing like you shouldn't be by yourself." Giorno flew off Narancia's shoulder and towards Abbacchio, when Giorno got close to him Abbacchio couldn't help but flinch. Giorno hugged Abbacchios face

"Thank you."

"Uh...n..no problem."

Bruno smiled at his husband who looked awkward as he gently rubbed his index finger against Giorno's head.

Bruno couldn't help but think that his family is complete with the little moth.
