Blue Hour

02.

The room went silent. It took them a second to process everything. Chris took a step back and his shoulders dropped. Kayden's eyes softened as he blinked almost like he held back a though he didn't want me to read, scared, for me. The tension was too much to handle you could almost cut it with a knife.

"What's with the faces?" I asked trying to reduce the tension.

"Okay sit down now." Damon adjusted his position on the sofa. "I guess it's better if they are here to discuss this too. Sit down now."

"Yeah." I took a seat. I flinched when the cuts on my hand came in contact with the fabric of the sofa. Kayden looked up immediately at me. Chris seemed to have been thinking of something else.

"Wait a minute!" He snapped "If you were out for gang work with Mr. De Angel then where the heck is Kat?!" Oh crap! Chris thought Kat was with me. But honestly I thought he would have figured it out almost immediately.

"Oh... we thought this was 'sneaking in'" Damon did air quotes around the sneaking in part. "soo she climbed the tree to her bedroom window." He had a damn proud smile plastered on his face.

"Classic!" I myself ended up smirking while saying that.

"Don't tell me she is a-"

"Yes Chris. She is." Chris would have never expected Kat to be a mafia. I was always looking for a way to seek revenge but Kat was suppose to be the innocent one. Little did any of them know Kat can do way more than we could ever expect from her.

As much as I'm proud of Kat, I want to talk to them in privet right now.

"Damon can you go check up on her?" He got the memo. He stood up while nodding then left to get her. One way or the other he knows I'm gonna have to tell them.

Chris and Kayden are sitting next to each other right infront of me. The room is filled with silence. I didn't know how to start, where to start or how to apologize for keeping this a secret. I took a deep breath and opened my mouth to speak when Chris cut me off.

"So you took over dads gang?" I nodded, not as his boss, as his little sister.

"How long has it been?" Chris continued with his questions.

"Since dad died" My eyes were fixed to the ground.

"You were 16!" His voice is scary but its got that concerned tone in it.

"That was four years ago." I responded.

"We all though it was dad's assistant. Everyone in the gang still assumes its her who kept things going."

"She helped me." I said. "She wanted revenge on the people who killed him just as much as we do so she helped me." What was I suppose to do? Let the people split up. Our mafia only exists till we finish off with the people who killed our dad everyone knows that. We've been keeping things on the low. Everybody thought we split up. I paid some members of our gang to move away and maybe start a life of their own away from this shitty world we got ourselves into.

"But why did you?" He met my eyes. He knows why. He knows I still blame myself. It was eating me up every single day.

"Chris I'm not a baby. You know what happened!" I raised my voice "I've seen things a sixteen year old would never have seen. I've done things for the past three years that people my age doesn't want to do. I can't unsee any of those things that happened right infront of my eyes. I never want to see anyone go through that and I never want Kat to see someone she loves dieing for her!!!" I know I almost cried but if we are family we need to be honest. I looked up to see Chris with a soft expression.

"What taking Damon so long?" Kayden asked changing the subject. Probably annoyed by the fact I was being too serious about leading a mafia gang. But my eyes snapped on to Chris as realization hit him pretty hard.

"Hold on!" Oh no no! Please don't ask "You sent a guy who just came into our house to check up our sister. He doesn't even know this house how will he know where Kat's room is-?" He stopped. BAM! It hit him hard.

"He's been here before hasn't he?" Kayden asked closings his eyes. He let out a disappointed breath leaning back on the sofa. Surprises keep coming up. He seems to take it better than Chris.

Chris stood up. "But still its a guy. Who knows what the hell he's up to-" I cut if off.

"Chris calm down. It's not like this is the first time they're gonna kiss...." I roll my eyes. We're being honest today right?

Kayden face palmed himself as a mysterious smile made its way to his face. I leaned forward but immediately hissed in pain when my chest hurt, probably cause of the punch in the ribs. His smile vanished, glaring at me.

"Your telling me that my sister has been in a relationship with a Mafia and I didn't know?" Chris's tolerance was surprisingly at a high level.

"Well I'm not surprised. They ARE sisters" Kayden said, obviously cause we started dating when I was 16.

"Okay but how long has Kat been working?" Chris asked

"She started last year when she turned 18." I said blankly.

He let out a deep breath and leaned back on the chair. "Okay.... So what were you doing today?"

"We broke into on of Quinn's basses with a few of James's guards. Managed to get an idea of their routines but we got caught trying to escape."

"Gods!"

"One thing we learnt is they have a pretty sloppy security system. And the fighters more like trainees." I tried to lean back but hissed in pain once again when the fabric of my jacket brushed on my bruises. "But they-"

"Okay listen." Kayden interrupted. I noticed all this time he had eyes on every one of my movements, getting furious with every time I flinched cause of the wounds. "I know there are a lot of things going on but right now you need to get cleaned up and get some proper rest."

I looked at him. His eyes were flaming with anger and fear at the same time. He cares. He cares a lot. And all this time I lied to him about this. I was reckless, selfish I know but I couldn't help it.

I knew he would have never let me do this if he knew.
