The eudaemonia of love -Anthony Larusso

chapter 4

Anthony's POV

As i got back into my room, the image of me and y/n sitting on the bed as she was wiping my fake tears away, kept replying in my head. I was imagining what would happen if my dad didn't walk in. Would she kiss me back? I mean.. she did move closer to my face, but moved away.

I need to shrug my thoughts off, because my sister teasing me about it. Isn't fun, she's gonna torture me. "Oh god, how will it go on our double date? "I mean not double date." I thought.

"Anthony!" I heard someone call out again. "Hm? Yeah?" I replied. "Are you okay? You zoned out for a second. I was worried about you." Y/n said.

"Yeah, Yeah im fine." I said smiling at her. "Good." She said smiling at me. I smirked "hold on. You were worried about me?" I asked her teasingly, i noticed her face going bright red.

I walked closer to her, as she backed away a bit.  We kept on doing that, me walking closer to her and her backing away till her back hit my wall.

She turned to look at the wall as she mumbled a small "shit." "I asked you a easy question.Were you worried about me?" I asked her again.

"N-no." She stuttered i placed my hands against the wall, trapping her. Seeing her flustered is fun.

"Are you sure?" I asked her moving my face closer to her. "N-no?" She stuttered out. I moved my face closer to her's again.

I felt our noses brushing against each other. She moved her face closer to mine, which caused our lips to brush against each other. This time my breath hitched, "so?" I asked her.

But someone opened the door again, "hey Anthony let's go-" Samantha started but she noticed what i was about to do. I slammed my fist softly but hard against my wall as i backed away from y/n.

"I'm sorry." She smirked. Miguel also came inside my room "what's wrong? Why are you so happy sam?" Miguel asked as he chuckled.

"I may have interrupted someone's second or even first kiss." She winked and pointed her finger at me and y/n.

"Oh shit, your growing up Ant." Miguel winked at me. "Piss off." I said walking out of the room dragging y/n with me. "Okay." Samantha said dragging out the "O".

Back to YOUR POV

"Wanna go to the movies? It's next to the mall, so we could practically go the mall after the movie." Samantha suggested. "Yeah, of course." I said. "Yeah, sure." Anthony agreed.
"Okay, to the movies we go." Miguel said rubbing his hands together.

I went to sit down next to a 14 year old guy, Anthony came and sat next to me, and Samantha sat between Anthony and Miguel.
I leaned back in my seat. As i was watching the movie closely, i noticed something slipping on my thigh. I looked to my right side and noticed the 14 year old guy slipping his hands between my thighs.

"Get off of me please." I whispered trying to pry his hands off me. I was about to slap him, till a voice cut me off "get your filthy hands off my girlfriend, before i break every single finger of yours." Anthony said ripping the guy's hand of my thigh.

"I-Im sorry, i thought it was my girlfriend." The guy said before turning back around to watch the movie.

"I hope you don't ever touch another girl's body parts without her permission i swear i'll send you to my personal homemade hell." I said towards the guy next to me

"Good job." Anthony said smirking at me. "Thank you, but why'd you say that you'd break his fingers Ant?" I asked him chuckling a bit.

"I do not like guy's touching you, y/n." He hissed."Anthony, be a little quieter. Let them enjoy their date." I said motioning to Samantha and Miguel who were snuggled into each other

"Fine, but if he touches you with one finger again, he won't even know what's left or right." He hissed making sure the guy next to me heard it.  

i rested my head on Anthony's shoulder which caused him to flinch. "Are you gonna sleep?" He asked me.

"No, i'm trying to calm you down." I said keeping my gaze on the movie. "It's working." He said. I smirked, "now just look at the movie and forget about what happend." I said.

"All right, princess." He said."I'm so glad, that the lights aren't on right now." I thought to myself feeling my cheeks heat up.

"I know your blushing." He said placing his head on top of mine. "I'm not blushing, you colourblind bitch." I said chuckling nervously.

"Sure." he said sarcastically. After a while the movie finished. Me, Anthony, Sam and Miguel got out of the movie theatre.

And went out to Sam's car. "Did y'all like the movie?" Miguel asked. "The movie yes. The people next to y/n, no." Anthony replied. "Why?" Samantha asked Anthony.

"No reason." I said smiling nervously. "Some guy started touching her." He hissed as he clenched his fist. "It wasn't much, he just touched my thigh. It was probably an accident." I said. "An accident?! He was smirking y/n that was not an accident!" He said.  "Hey, Anthony calm down." Miguel said.

I heard someone whistle behind me, "look little bro that's the girl you were talking about in the movie theatre? Damn, her friend over there is hot too." A 17 year old guy said pointing at Samantha.

That got Miguel and Anthony's attention. They both started to charge at the the guy and his brother. "What'd you say?!" Miguel asked angrily. I pulled Anthony back, "he's not worth it!" I said pulling him to Samantha's car. "I warn you, next time if i see you. I'll break you." He shouted at the little guy, but i just shoved him inside the car.

"Oh, I'm with Anthony on this one." Miguel said as he glared at the two guys as we drove away. "They were messing around." Samantha said. "So what? We're going home." Miguel said. "Yeah, Samantha i think that's the best because if we see those guys again we do not know what these two will do." I said nodding towards Miguel and Anthony. "Fine." She said before going home.

As soon as we arrived at the Larusso's, Anthony ran to his room. I ran after him, "Anthony." I said. He just ignored me and continued pacing around his room while breathing heavily, what is his problem? "Anthony, calm down. It was nothing, just two guys who wanted to play around." I said.

I went over to him and took his clenched fists in mine. "You seriously need to calm down. Let's just play some video games. And then go downstairs to eat dinner, alright?" I said. He nodded, unclenching his fists.

I smiled as he passed me a controller, "this time i will beat you." He said pointing at me. "Okay, and what if i win." I said smirking. "If i win, i get a kiss from you. And if you win, you get a kiss from me." He said. "And what if i don't want a kiss from you." I said smirking. "Then you can change my kiss into what you want." He said shrugging. "Hm, nah i'm good." I said smirking.

•••

After a while, for the first time. Anthony won against me. "That was coincidence." I said pointing at the tv. "I guess, you owe me a kiss." He smirked getting of the bed and walking over to me. Since i was sitting on his bed, he bent down and placed his two arms next to my hips and looked me in the eyes. I swear my breath hitched, he placed two fingers under my chin and pulled my face closer to his.

The door opened revealing, Sam. "Woah." She said. I immediately pulled away and looked at her at the same time as Anthony, she looked at the position we we're in, "I just wanted to tell y'all dinner's ready." She said pursing her lips before leaning against the door frame.

Anthony just rubbed his head, and walked past Sam down the stairs. I also got off the bed. "That took a turn." She says while smiling. "It was just a bet we made." I said looking at my feet. "Trust me it was more than just a simple bet." She said winking at me before motioning for me to follow her to the dinner table.

"You should've kissed him." A voice said inside my head, i just shrugged it off and followed Samantha downstairs.
