Mafia

Chapter Thirteen

When we arrived home, Giovanni helped carry everything out of the car and placed it on the landing outside of the bedroom, I hadn't really realised how much stuff we had brought until it was piled outside the bedroom door. I placed everything neatly to one side before bringing the paint in the nursery ready to start painting. "You shouldn't be painting in your condition." Giovanni says as he heads upstairs with the last round of boxes. 

"I'll open a window it will be fine." I say as he stands on the stairs looking at me as I place a hand on my small bump. "You're more than welcome to help..." I trail of quickly realising that he would unlikely want to join me.  

"Okay.." He said unsure as to weather he actually wanted to help me or not, before following me into the nursery. He seemed different, he didn't speak much whilst we painted the nursery instead he listened to me rambling on about nonsense. He made sure to open all the windows upstairs so that the fumes didn't get to me and the baby, and we started to paint the room green. I defiantly preferred this side to Giovanni he was much easier to get along with. 

"It looks so different now, more open." I say to Giovanni as finish up with the painting and head downstairs to grab some food, as I was hungry. 

"Yeah it does.." He says trailing off slightly as if he had more to say. 

"Who's room was it before ours." I ask once again rubbing my small bump.  

"Lilly's." He says as he begin to make food for the both of us. 

"Your sister Lilly?" I ask watching him, however he's not looking at me instead he's focused on making the food. 

"No, she was my soon to be wife, she had the heir my throne, and I loved her... A lot." He says looking at me before slowly walking to sit close to me. "I helped raise him for a few months, but there was a lot of discussion in the town about him not looking like me or being my son. So I done a DNA test just to double check... It wasn't mine she had cheated and lied to me." He says and I heard his voice crack slightly. 

"So you killed them?" I asked seriously causing him to grown towards me.

"I'm not that heartless V, no I gave her some money to support them both and left them. And then I met you less than a month later, and soon you came to me to tell me you where pregnant. And I couldn't go through it all again, that's why I asked for a DNA test." He says as I slip my hands into his to show my support to him. 

"I wouldn't do that to you Giovanni." 

"Bullshit... Anyone can do that and I learnt to never trust or love another person after that." He say pulling my hand away and standing up again to go and sort the food out. Something pulled on my heart strings hearing those words, that he will never be able to love me or our daughter not like he loved her. 

"I'm not hungry anymore, you can leave it on the side I will eat later." I say standing up and pushing my chair back where it belongs.

"Don't be stupid, sit down and eat it" He demands as I try and leave the kitchen, I decide to not bother arguing with him and sit down on the table to eat the food that he made. Although it was nice food the comment that he made repeated in my mind continuously, causing me to only be able to eat a small amount. "Do you not like it?" he asks as I shake my head. 

"No, no it's fine actually is really good. I'm just not hungry, probably just pregnancy things." Yet another lie, however I just wanted to be able to spend some time to myself and collect my thoughts. "I think I am going to finish a few things in the nursery." I say as I leave the table and head upstairs into the nursery and start building the cot. It wasn't long until I had built it, however when I was trying to make the baby changing unit, I very quickly realised that there was an entire piece missing, which meant that I was going to have to return it tomorrow morning. 

I headed downstairs to find Giovanni, so that I could ask him to take me to the store tomorrow morning and if he could help carry it downstairs, however he was no longer in the kitchen when he had been previously. After looking almost everywhere I was able to find him in his office talking on the phone to someone. "I don't care I want them dead, no that doesn't bother me I have told you already to sort it out! I am busy." He snaps before slamming the phone down and turning his attention towards me. "What do you want." He sighs as he sits back down onto his chair turning his attention directly to me. 

"I was wondering if we could go to the store again tomorrow, one of the pieces is missing so we need to swap it. And I thought we could watch another movie? Your pick?" I ask as he stares at me blankly. 

"Is that all? " He asks as I nod my head not sure what response he is looking for. "Then my answer is no. I am busy tomorrow, and so are you,  you are going out with my mum to finish getting stuff for the wedding."  He says as I roll my eyes towards him, slightly annoyed that he has gotten shitty all of a sudden. 

"What is your problem now." He snaps his tone of voice harsh and rude causing me to feel hurt, I have done nothing to upset him yet he has turned back the old Giovanni again, the cold heartless one. 

"I don't know how many times I am going to have to say this but I do not want to marry you. Only to have to fake it for a year before it ends up in a divorce, you made it very clear that you do not want a girl so just tell your father that it wasn't your child or something okay?" I say angrily as his eyes shoot daggers towards me. 

"You think that I want to marry you, fuck that! But sadly we make mistakes and we have to both deal with them. So get over it V it's happening." He snaps as I feel my blood start to boil. 

"Fuck you" I yell loudly as I feel the tears threatening to spill once more as I start to leave his office. 

"No fuck you and you're bastard of a child." He yells as I storm out making sure to slam the door as hard as I possibly can praying that it breaks something. I march towards my bedroom before throwing myself into my bed wanting to punch the stupid son of a bitch. I am not going shopping with his mum tomorrow he can get fucked, I am going to the store and returning the stupid unit instead. If they want me to marry him they can drag me down the fucking isle. 

I head towards the baby changing unit and lift it up, although it is heavy I can carry it downstairs by myself, so that it is ready for when I have to leave in the morning. I will probably have to steal Giovanni's car again. The first set of stairs are ridiculously steep and windy, and I made a mental note to be extra careful, however as I took a step forward something in the box moved causing me to lose my balance and set me head over heels down the stairs, causing me to bang my head a few times before passing out on the cold hard floor. 

Giovanni's Pov 

I heard the bangs, and the small scream that she let out as she fell down the stairs, and I instantly rushed to my feet heading towards her. She was out cold, although she still had a pulse, I wanted to pretend like I didn't care, but I couldn't do that to the both of them. I promised myself I wouldn't become attached in case it happened all over again, but I wasn't going to leave her. Sweeping her up in my arms I carried her towards the car, and started the engine before rushing to hospital, half way there and she awoke clearly in great amounts of pain, and her eyes look at me full of fear and sadness. 

"I'm bleeding..." As I scanned her face I could see no visible signs of blood, however her hands and her legs where covered in blood indicating that she was in fact bleeding somewhere. "It's the baby.." She says as she started crying loudly her hands placed on her bump as she bowed her head, I pressed harder on the accelerator as she cried harder and louder. I prayed to the lord that everything was fine as she sobbed "What If I have lost the baby"
