Between Us

A/N: these dialogues are in italian, at least when the four protagonists of the DeLuca family are talking to each other. They are of course written in English. Let your imagination work.

-----

[Italian]

- "your friend looks very nice" says Colonel

-"Yes she is... Finally we met today. She's my partner"

- "Aah I remember my partner, he became my best friend..."

- "we know dad" interrupted Andrea "and he's still your best friend, Uncle Owen"

- "I've told you a lot..."

- "but not my darling, you are, very, passionate! it is all" reassured Lucia.

-"Can we... Leave the table? "Carina asked.

-"you can also help your mother to get rid of the stuff."

- "get out my loves, darling, it was their comeback to school, let's give them a night off"

The two twins gave their mother the most radiant smile.

-"They are so perfect. And cute between them" Lucia says proudly, seeing her two children so complicit.

Carina followed her brother to his room, it was their ritual. The evening, especially the evening of the first day of school, to go and talk about their day.

- "you would not have something to confess to me?" Said Andrea while sitting down on the bed

- "Can you be more specific? Because it's back to school and I clearly have a lot to tell you".

-"I'm talking about miss 'in English please' " he said, mimicking quotation marks

- "she has a first name I'll have you know"

- "ouuuuh susceptible to what I see..."

- "for once a girl is nice to me.... "

-"Arizona was also nice to you..." He says full of innuendo

- "oh yes, and you saw where that got me"

- "sister with your looks you're not going to make yourself a nun and give up on love at the first failure!"

- "c'mon ... I'm not interested in her".

- "to others. I'm your twin, we're connected by an invisible link I remind you, I felt the butterflies in your belly when you looked at her in class"

- "hmmm it was probably your digestion yeah"

- "at 8 o'clock in the morning? we'll see..."

- "and you then this Stefania?"

- "surely you mean Samantha?"

- " same"

-"No ... Would you like me to say Daniela instead of Maya? "

- "if her name was that it would be Danielle because she's American, but I understand what you're saying, so I apologize, this Samantha?"

- "wait wait wait, I'll come back to that .... So you understand my point of view ... So you wouldn't like me to get my name wrong?! "

- "We were going to go on you there..."

- "how you change the subject! "

-"and it works? "

- "only because she's gorgeous. She's from New Mexico, she's our age but strangely she asked to go to Italian high school.... My luck, all because I can't get rid of you! ... But I don't despair of seeing her at the shelter... She was there today, I didn't dare to go and see her".

- "YOU, the lover, you didn't dare to go to her? " she mocked. "Maybe I should go hit on her she seems worth it if you've been idle in front of her."

-"Please, there is a new girl, a little blonde with blue eyes who is really not bad, sporty, she must be good in the sack, she has a muscular body..." Said he while ventilating his face with his hand to support his words, which earned him a punch in the ribs by his twin

- "Don't even try! "

- "Well, you're not interested in her, so I'm considering all my options in case Samantha doesn't want me. And I'm sure she thinks I'm hot. She said I was handsome."

- "she actually told me you were hot"

- "ah well you see! "

- "but I think that if this Samantha is smart she will want you, handsome, son of a Colonel, you are a good match... And then Maya is not a second choice"

- "you too sister she will want you... You and I are the same kind, the same metal. She'd be crazy not to fall for you".

Of course Carina had found Maya nice, beautiful, adorable, but she didn't want to get her hopes up. She didn't even know if Maya really liked girls or if she was just trying to get rid of that lump Jack.

And having a friend on the base was also nice. The only people she hung out with were her parents, her parents' friends and their children when they were 'forced' to talk to her. Or her brother's friends. The girls didn't approach her and the boys mainly wanted to hit on her.
