06 No Dishes For Saturn

Saturn
Nonna's breakfast was yummy as usual. After my tea Nonna made me some chocolate chip pancakes. Yum.

Nonna placed the plate in front of me and I thanked her. Apollo and Atlas were still here but they finished their eggs a while ago so now they are drinking some coffee while I eat.

I picked up my fork ready to dig into these yummy breakfast cakes but then I noticed Nonna didn't cut them up. She always cuts them up. I'm not being a brat or anything! That was just something Nonna always did for me. She always cut my food for me. I looked back at her and she gave me another smug smile.

What.

I decided instead of asking for help and embarrassing myself infront of the men I would attempt to cut my food myself.

I got maybe two chops in before I felt someone's soft hand on top of mine.

I looked up to see it was Atlas's hand. He gently took the form and knife from my hand and began cutting my food up for me.

I blushed knowing they both saw me struggling.

You act like your 4.

No I don't.

Yes you do.

No I don't.

Here we go again. Whenever I get those mean thoughts I try my best to think of happier moments, times with Nonna, the time when I found my kitties in the garden when I first moved in here, happy times.

It almost always works and they go away.

But it's still a pain.

Atlas finished cutting my food and gave me back my fork but he kept my knife on his side. Hm.

"T-thank you Atlas."

He smiled in return.

Apollo placed his hand on the back of my chair and whispered just so I could hear.

"Eat up pretty girl."

Pretty girl

Hehe

I looked up at Apollo and nodded my head enthusiastically and then got to eating.

Apollo

Rosetta explained to us Saturns situation but we would never push her to tell us herself. Nor would we start our first real conversation with the girl about her unfair and sad past.

Rosetta texted us last night asking us to come over for breakfast because seeing us yesterday at my moms book store reminder her just how much she really missed us.

Rosetta is the only other women I look up to. Other than my own mother.

Ofcourse we agreed because honestly, we missed her too.

We grew up with Rosetta and not having her around as much was a big change to get used to when we took over for my Uncle Valentine.

But when we saw Rosetta again, what we weren't expecting to see was the little one following her around and holding onto her for dear life.

Seeing Saturn with Rosetta gave us even more of reason to go see Rosetta. Rosetta knew it too.

We didn't miss those cheeky smiles or winks she was "secretly" passing along to Saturn.

Because we were also getting them from Rosetta too.

Rosetta knows we like to share everything because we have even when she was our babysitter. I guess she had a hunch now seeing us 6 ish years later that nothing has changed.

And she was right.

Other than the extensive and painful training experience we were expected to go through to become Capo. We were the same boys.

Saturn finished her breakfast quickly and before we got the chance to stop her she was up and running to the sink with all our plates ready to do dishes.

Nope, not happening.

Atlas and I looked at eachother, thinking the same thing and up we both went following her to the sink.

Once we got there she was just about to turn the water on but Atlas grasped her waist, making her gasp, and gently moved her to go sit back down so I could do them instead of her.

"B-but- no. I can do them! No! Really At-Atlas it's okay! Pl-please let me."

I heard her from the other side of the room.

"No Saturn. Apollo is going to do them. Why don't you show me around? I havnt been here in years? Yes?" Atlas was trying to calm her down, distract her so I could finish up quickly.

Which was no challenge because I was already done.

"I will join too." They both looked at me. Amusement evident in Atlas's eyes and shock written in Saturns beautiful eyes.

I smirked, dried my hands, and took long strides over towards them.

Once I reached them I raised my hand to Saturn and gently moved a piece of hair out of her face and tucked it behind her ear.

"Wanna show us around kitten?"

She looked down at her hands, wringing her fingers. I grasped her chin in between my fingers and pulled her chin to so she could meet my eyes.

"Eyes on me Saturn."

She nodded her head and said "I-I can show y-you around."

I let go of her chin and looked over towards where Rosetta was standing. She was no longer there, she must have left after she gave Saturn her breakfast.

"C-can we start outside?" She looked up at us.

"You lead the way sweetheart." Atlas nodded his head at her.
