The moon sparkled through the curtains, the city below looked beautiful as always. Mrs. Berlusconi kindly supplied me with a dress for tonight's occasion. The dress of the fabric was a light pink and absolutely soft. The dress was strapless, exposing my arms. The front of the dress wrapped around to the back, the back of the bottom of the dress dipping slightly lower on my waist. The dress was simple and perfect, but still out of my comfort zone.

I was a bit anxious to see Dante, after all, this was a family dinner event. I'd assume he'd cooled down after earlier today, but I've seen Dante whenever he get mad and this time... I really thought he was going to hurt me.

As I walked down the stairs, I saw Luca standing alone in a all black tuxedo. I couldn't help but smile after seeing him and my brothers get along after the pool when we got home. Hearing me come, Luca turned around. A smile spread across his face, but once he took me in, it slowly faded away. " Hi," I said softly . " Hey," Luca said back. I smiled, " you look good." Luca grinned, " as well as you." Stepping off the last step on the stairs, I turned to Luca and said, " today at the pool." Luca chuckled softly, " you and my brothers are warming up to each other," I informed him. " It appears so, yes," Luca said slipping his hands into his pant pockets.

I nodded, " you know, the whole tough guy act wasn't fooling anyone." Luca raised his eyebrows, making me smile more. " What act?" Luca asked grinning. I rolled my eyes, making Luca chuckle softly. " And what tough act was I supposedly giving?" Luca asked. " Scaring me," I answered. Luca smirked, " I scared you?" The smile on my face slipped off, " no, no, you didn't scare me, you tried to." Luca nodded, " you finally admit that I scared you." " That's not what I meant to say," I said. " Whatever you say," Luca teased.

I scoffed softly as I pushed Luca back. Without hesitation, Luca grinned as he grabbed my arm, pulling me forward onto his chest, pinning my arm back behind my back so that I was locked into place. " In one swift movement, just one," Luca murmured as his face was mere inches away from mine, " I could break your arm." " But you won't," I said softly. Luca grinned, " I could." " Unless you want to end up with a broken neck, and nose, again, I suggest you let me go before my brothers walk into the room," I said with a soft smile on my face. Hearing footsteps, Luca turned his head to see all four of my brothers walking down the hall.
