I was up by 5am, showered and packed. To be completely honest I didn't sleep at all. I was crying all night for doing what I did. I opened the bedroom door and I ran into Robbie about to knock.
"I was coming to make sure you were up. We leave in 30. There is coffee in to go mugs downstairs." Robbie said and I nodded.
"I'll take my bag down." I said and went to grab it but Robbie grabbed it.
"I got it." Robbie said and I gave a small smile but nothing from him.
"Robbie..." I asked in small voice. It seemed to affect him but he just kept walking downstairs. I had tears fill my eyes. I realized I made a mistake telling him I needed time but there was no way to tell him this. I was hurtful and there was no taking that back. I headed down the stairs and he handed me the coffee mug.
"I just want to lock up. Can you go wait in the car?" Robbie asked and I nodded and headed out to the car. I went to get in but it was lock so I just leaned on the car looking at the coffee lid trying to fight off the tears.
"Ms. Di Marco. Get in the car."
"It was locked." I said and he sighed. He unlocked the doors and I got in. I put my seatbelt on as Robbie pulled away from the Cabin. I watch it until we pulled from the driveway. The cabin that released a lot of emotions and changed everything. After about 10 minutes I grabbed my earbuds from my purse and plugged them into my phone. After a few songs a started to started playing.
🎵Loving and fighting
Accusing, denying
I can't imagine a world with you gone
The joy and the chaos
The demons we're made of
I'd be so lost if you left me alone
You locked yourself in the bathroom
Lying on the floor when I break through
I pull you in to feel your heartbeat
Can you hear me screaming, "Please don't leave me"?
Hold on, I still want you
Come back, I still need you
Let me take your hand, I'll make it right
I swear to love you all my life
Hold on, I still need you
Long endless highway
You're silent beside me
Driving a nightmare I can't escape from
Helplessly praying
The light isn't fading
Hiding the shock and the chill in my bones
They took you away on a table
I pace back and forth as you lay still
They pull you in to feel your heartbeat
Can you hear me screaming, "Please don't leave me"?
Hold on, I still want you
Come back, I still need you
Let me take your hand, I'll make it right
I swear to love you all my life
Hold on, I still need you
I don't wanna let go
I know I'm not that strong
I just wanna hear you
Saying baby, let's go home
Let's go home
I just wanna take you home
Hold on, I still want you
Come back, I still need you🎵
As the song played I looked out the door window and silently cried. This was what I needed Robbie to hear, the song. It was how I felt but he wouldn't even hold a normal conversation with me.
*****ROBBIE POV*****
I heard the song playing in her earbuds and it broke my heart like I knew it was breaking hers. I didn't want this, I hated this between us. We weren't even like this when we first met. We crossed some lines that we knew should be cross and now we were both broken. I heard her sniff and took a quick glance to see tears rolling down her face as she silently cried. I wanted to veer the car off to the side of the road and wrap her in my arms. I needed her but she wanted this, she wanted this break, she wanted this to just be work. I continued to drive and let her just cry this out.
*****NORMAL POV*****
About an hour later we arrived back in town and got to the pizza shop. I pulled a compact from my purse and made sure I didn't look like I had been crying the entire car ride.
"Ready?" Robbie asked and I nodded as we got out of the car. We walked into the back of the pizza shop and I walked to Gino's office and knocked on the closed door.
"Yeah?!" He yelled and I walked in with Robbie.
"Ahh welcome back home." Gino said as I gave a small nod and sat down, Gino looked at me oddly.
"You okay?" He asked and I nodded.
"Didn't sleep well." I said and he scoffed.
"Well you will be happy to know your apartment is safe and the guys that were following you two that day have been taken care of." Gino said and I looked at him oddly.
"You found them?" I asked shocked.
"There were sitting in their car in your parking lot." Gino said.
"Were the Constantino's men?" Robbie asked and Gino shook his head.
"They wouldn't say who they worked for." Gino said and I sighed as my eyes filled with tears again. "Why are you crying?" Gino asked pissed.
"It's just the Constantino's and now someone else. I have nothing going for me anymore. I may as well just give myself to whoever wants me." I said and went to get up to leave and Gino rushed and stopped me smacking me across my face.
"You are my daughter and I wont let anything happen to you! Stop talking stupid and sit your ass back down." Gino said and I did what he said. I noticed when he smacked me Robbie stood up defensively.
"So what's the plan?" Robbie asked after a couple minutes.
"Well you are to move into Scout's apartment. I used to think you being next door would be enough but it I don't think it is anymore. I know she has a pull-out couch. Is that a problem?" Gino asked.
"No, shouldn't be a problem." Robbie answered before I could and I just nodded.
"Good. Now you guys can go home and get everything worked out." Gino said and I stood up once Robbie and I stopped and turned back to my dad.
"Those guys..." I started and he looked up at me. "Were they killed?" I asked.
"They weren't giving us answers so what do you think Scout?" Gino asked. I snapped.
"Are you fucking crazy?! You don't know who they were yet you just kill them so they can send more?! They sent 2 for Pronge and I. What's to say they wont send more next time?! You signed my death warrant along with his! Him living in my apartment wont mean shit when they break in and kill us!" I yelled. Gino stood up from his desk and went to walk over to me and then there was another knock on the office door.
"Get her the fuck out of here Pronge and do your damn job like you have been. Anything sketchy get her the fuck out again." Gino said and Robbie nodded, grabbed my arm and ushed me out of the office and out of the pizza shop. Once we got outside my feet stopped moving and I started crying hysterically. Robbie didn't make any kind of move towards me. I composed myself quickly and walked to the car and got in.
"Once we get home we will work it all out about me staying with you." Robbie said and I sighed.
"Yeah, sure. Sounds good." I said trying to calm down. We drove in silence.
