When Am I Urs? ᵐˣᵐ

Elliots pov
Santino hopped back in the car, im guessing Jason was staying at the warehouse because Santino told Carlos to drive off.

Santino tried to hug me but instead I just shrugged him off and curled into a ball. He was talking to me but I couldn't hear him.

What Carlos said rung in my head like an annoying bell.

You're slowing him down

you're such a burden

distracting him

My heart beat felt calm and steady but I couldn't help but break out into a sweat, like I im guilty... like im killing someone...

I felt a sudden feeling of warmth all over me, and I noticed I was in Santino arms, crying? Did I really let words get to me like that? Was I really that weak?

How would I react when Santino was done with me and wouldn't wanna keep doing what were doing.. what are we??

"You're okay, its gonna be okay, whats wrong bun?"

"I wanna go home." I let out weakly as I pull myself out of his arms.

"Take us to my penthouse, Carlos."

I wiped my tears, and swallowed more that dare to come. "I said I want to go home." I sniffled.

"And were going home, how many times have you told me that my penthouse feel like a second home?" He combed his fingers through his hair as he closed his laptop frustratedly.

"I wanna go to mines though, I'm tired." I protested as I hugged myself. Santino pulled me into his chest only for me to pull back.

"When we step foot in that fucking penthouse were talking Elliot." He hissed making me want to cry even more.

The car ride was silent and thick with tension, once we arrived at the development Santino pulled me out of the car demanding Carlos to go away with a nice 'fuck off' and dragged both of us to the elevator and inside of his penthouse.

I rubbed my face, annoyed at his attitude, why can't he accept that I want to be alone??

He slammed the door making me roll my eyes.

"Whats wrong, just tell me what's wrong instead of getting an attitude, just allow yourself to cry ill be the shoulder you can cry on." He tried to hug me but I backed up.

"You're the one to talk."

He let out an annoyed breath.

"Baby."

"Were over, Santino.. I'm done." I poked him in the chest aggressively.

He grabbed a glass and threw it on the floor. I looked at him like he was crazy and scoffed.

"Were not over." He grabbed me and gently caressed my face. "Were not ever gonna be over." He kissed the side of my mouth.

"I am never going to be over you." His hands tightened on my waist, a bruising grip.

I bit my lips and noses touched each other.

"Tell me whats wrong, please Elliot," his breath hit my face, coffee scented with a hit of caramel.

I caved in and I told him everything that happened in the car, everything I was thinking and feeling in the moment when Carlos told me off.

I watched Santinos face grow in anger, I watched him pace back in forth as he talked on the phone. As he looked at his watch, as if he had somewhere to go.

"He's going to be handled, okay? Let's go get ice cream then we can go to build a bear and make us a bear, okay baby?" I smiled and nodded.

He held my chin up. "Can I hear that sexy voice?"

"Yes, Santino."

"Good."

We did exactly what he said we was gonna do, we went to an ice cream parlor and I got an ice cream cone with three scoops and Santino got frozen yogurt. After that we went to Build-A-bear and made both of us a bear for ourselves. I ended up naming it Milly. After we put our voices inside of the bear.

Santino let me pick clothes for her with shoes and after that we went around the mall. I ended up finding a Photo booth and forced Santino into taking pictures with me.

Once the pictures printed out I placed them in the back of my phone case.

After that we got matching pajamas and face masks for tonight. We were gonna watch a scary movie and eat takeout then make sundaes.

When we were finished shopping at the mall we got ingredients for pizza, he wanted to show me how his mother made pizza for him when he was younger.

I loved learning new things about him., he's almost my new addiction.

Scandal references hitting hard 😜😜
