I woke up from another nightmare this morning. Nothing out of the norm. That was around 5:00 a.m. which allowed me to get more sleep than usual.
It's now 8:30 a.m., and I'm going to talk with Salvatore in his office. I knock on the dark wood door three times.
Salvatore has me enter the room, and I take a seat in one of the two chairs in front of his desk. He's wearing his pajamas still, but he will probably change into a suit later on in the day. I'm still in my pajamas from last night.
"How are you today principessa?" He asks me in a soft voice
"I'm alright." I reply truthfully, as I bring my right leg to rest on my left knee.
The corners of his lips tug up in a small smile. "I know today might be a lot for you so if you have any questions please ask." He explains
Yeah there's going to be 17 more people here in the next 5 hours
"Can you just make sure they don't touch me? I don't want to accidentally hit them." I reply in a genuine tone
Salvatore's face morphs into confusion, but also amusement. "Why would you hit them?" He asks
"It's a reflex. When someone I don't know touches me, I immediately assume it's an attacker." I explain leaning back in my chair
He lets out a breathless laugh. "I'll make sure principessa. Anything else?" He replies
I shake my head side to side responding "No."
"Okay then." He begins, relaxing a bit. "They are in the air right now flying over. Once they get here, the guards will take their luggage to the rooms they usually stay in. My parents and my brothers with their wives stay on the first floor. The other boys will stay on the second floor with you all, but closer to the other side of the house. I will bring everyone into the big dinning room; I'll say 'come in' and that's when I'll have your guards open the door. Does that all sound okay to you?" He explains casually, growing more anxious towards the end
"You seem excited." I comment with a smirk
Salvatore chuckles saying "I am. I know they will love you principessa. I just hope my mom doesn't kill me."
I nod my head with an almost invisible smile on my lips. "Everything sounds good Salvatore. Are you going to talk to Blondie and Green Eyes about all this?" I question retuning back to my emotionless state
"Yes. I'll call them in when we're done." He replies nodding his head
"Okay." I reply doing the same. "I wanted to go to the grocery store later today. Do you mind?" I ask him cautiously
I've decided unless it's an emergency I will ask beforehand. I can't deal with anymore interventions.
Salvatore exhales heavily and rubs his bearded chin. "I don't know." He replies sighing
