Italian-American Mafia: Origin Story

54.

Hades Pov

Left jab, right jab, right jab, left jab, left jab, left jab, kick, kick, upper cut, left jab.

The chain of the bag snapped and the punching bag broke and all the sand started pouring out.

'Again' Pers complained.

'That's the fourth bag that you've broken within 2 days, what's going on with you' she asked.

I couldn't exactly tell her because I need to handle this on my own.

'Nothing' I said.

I got some water out the fridge and gulped it down within seconds. I pushed my self off of the wall I was leaning on and made my way out the room. I heard footsteps following me and  I know its Pers.

'What the fuck is going on with you, first you want to act all lovey dovey and the next seconds you wanna act like an asshole. Like this has been going on for months, even Darrius noticed the change' she said.

She's right it has been months, but I don't want her to get worked up right now. We were just starting to feel like kids again-well in our own special way, and then they had to ruin it for me. It's like they know when to strike when I'm starting to be happy again.

'HADES APOLLO RIZZO are you even listening to me' she screamed.

I closed my eyes and take in deep breaths, im not in a great mood and she is really pissing me off. I tuned around and stormed over to her.

'Yeah I am and I'm fine now can you please just leave ME THE FUCK ALONE, shit its always something with you. SOMETIMES IM NOT GOING TO BE IN THE BEST FUCKING MOOD EVER OK. YOU OF ALL PEOPLE SHOULD KNOW THAT, BUT YOU ARE JUST CONSTANTLY NAGGING, LIKE FUCK GET THE FUCK AWA-'

SMACK

My head turned to the other side as I felt a stinging on my cheeck.

'Fuck you, you want me to leave you alone, fine... you are fucking alone' she said

FUCK. FUCK. FUCK.

I punch the wall hard until I feel my knuckles start to bleed. I run my hands through my hair and blink hard to stop the tears from coming down. Why would I say that. Why would I even do that, she's been nothing but supportive and I took all my bullshit on her, she doesn't deserve that. EVER.

Now look what you've done.

Oh shut up you know why I'm stressed right now.

Then why don't you I don't know tell her.

You know I can't do that I don't want her to stress out.

Yeah but look where that got you, having no girlfriend.

We didn't break up... yet.

Mhm and lets see that will last.

Rolling my eyes at my subconscious I made my way to my room. I got inside my room and headed straight for the bathroom. I turned on the water and a stripped out of my clothes and hopped in the shower. I put my head under the water and just let the water run down my body. I think back on when I got that message. One simple message that has been fucking with my mind for months.

Coming out of my thoughts I finished doing my routine. I turned off the water and got out wrapping the towel around my waist. I went into my closet and put some boxers on. I followed up with some grey sweats and a white t-shirt. I put some black socks on and walked out my room to find Pers and Darrius.

I checked outside to make sure the car still is there which is a good sign. I went into Pers room first but didn't find her there. I then checked Darrius room and he wasn't in there either. I went down the hall to see if they were in the living room which they weren't. I heard movement in the kitchen. I made my way to the kitchen and opened the door to find them both here in deep conversation.

They haven't noticed my presence and I can't really make out what there saying so I made myself known.

'Oh your here' Darrius said.

I rolled my eyes and looked at Pers who was avoiding all eye contact with me.

'I'm going to take this to my room, talk later Darrius ok?' She said not even acknowledging my presence.

'Persephone' I said.

'What' she snapped

She turned around and looked at me, I motioned her to sit back down. She rolled her eyes and sat back down next to Darrius. I took a deep breath, now how am I going to explain this to them.

'What do you want, you said leave you alone and I'm doing just that' Pers said

'What happened' a clueless Darrius asked

'Your best friend straight up yelled at me telling me that I nag him to much and that I needed to leave him alone, so that is what exactly what I'm doing' she said with a scoff.

Darrius looked at me with "are you a dumbass" look. I rub my hands down my face because now I have two problems to deal with. 1. The problem that I have yet to tell them about, and 2. Getting back on Pers good side. Trust me, you don't want to be on her bad side, I shiver at the flashbacks.

'I've been keeping something from you guys'. I blurt out.

They looked at each other and then back at me.

'What have you been keeping from us' Darrius asked.

I take a deep breath and clench my fist, my anger boils just thinking about them.

'They're back' I said.

'Who's back'

'My parents'.
