Bleeding Rose

Chapter twenty eight

"Jesus Christ," I muttered, my leg bouncing in my seat.

First thing in the morning Leah, Sofia, and Sammy were put on the jet, to avoid any men.

And let's just say the process was taking way longer than expected.

Lorenzo and Nico were out finalizing a number of things and I had opted to watch over the girls.

Sofia of course had no problem with being around men but there was no way I was letting my thirteen year old sister walk around by herself.

"Ugh I hate flying," Sofia complained for the third time in the last half hour.

I shot her a glare and she shot her hands up in surrender.

At least I didn't have to worry about Leah or Sammy because both were passed out asleep.

"How late did you keep Leah up," I grumbled to Sofia who was looking at me guiltily.

"Never mind, don't tell me," I sighed.

"I swear I'm going to bang my head into a wall repeatedly," a familiar male voice ranted from the stairs leading up to the plane doors.

"Never mind, scratch that. Shoot myself in the head with a nail gun," Nico continued as he stepped onto the plane.

"Lord give me patience today," I prayed under my breath.

I was sprawled out on a couch while Leah was passed out on a singular couch chair.

Sammy was circled up in another seat and Sofia was sitting in the back corner on her phone.

"Are you kidding me? She's in my chair," Nico practically yelled, pointing at Leah.

"Nico, shut up and sit down," Lorenzo grumbled.

Nico continued muttering under his breath but he eventually went to sit down in a chair opposite to her.

Lorenzo came and sat down next to me and let out an exhausted breath.

"It's noon and I'm already for this day to be over," I mumbled, resting my head on his shoulder.

"Me too," he grumbled.

Unfortunately the rest of the plane ride didn't get any better when Sofia began talking to someone on the phone and cussing them out.

Nico keep glancing at Leah sleeping body when he thought nobody was looking.

At least Sammy was still asleep, there was one thing to be grateful for.

Lorenzo had been busy on his phone, his face serious and slightly distressed at whatever he was doing.

"What's wrong?" I asked

"Nothing," he said, his eyes flashing up to meet mine and I knew there had to be something wrong.

"Why are you lying to me?" I said, slight unease settling in my stomach.

"I'm not Bella," he sighed.

And there he goes again when that nickname

I heard a whimper then Leah's body began to twitch and thrash.

My eyes widened when Nico immediately snapped up and practically ran to her side.

He held her arms down and cupped her face whispering to her to calm down.

He pushed the hair back from her face and rested his hand there for a second.

Me and Lorenzo were watching him with wide eyes and Nico seemed to catch onto it.
