Felicity (SLOW UPDATES)

Chapter 6

"Why haven't you slept yet ?"

Bella flinched at sudden voice. She looked back only to see Vincenzo standing there, with his hands in his pocket, leaning on her door frame.

"Not sleepy" She shrugged smiling.

Vincenzo sighed and came towards her.

"What are you doing ?"

"Nothing much, I was not able to sleep so I thought of drawing ... Who knows, I may fall asleep !! By the way you are also awake, why haven't you slept yet ?" She asked him, continue sketching.

Vincenzo stiffened for a minor second before replying "Can't sleep either"

Bella's hand froze for a second.

She looked at Vincenzo and nodded.

She bits her lower lip knowing very well that Vincenzo has a nightmare that's why he is not sleepy.

But she didn't bring that topic.

"Vinny, can I ask you one thing ?" She asked him unsure.

Vincenzo frowned "Yes Bells, why are you even asking that ?"

Bella giggled.

"Can you tell me a story ?" She showed him her puppy eyes.

Vincenzo chuckled at that.

"Of course come"

They made themselves comfortable on the bed. Vincenzo covered themselves with duvet and dim their lights.

"Tell me which story you wanna hear ?" He asked her.

"Little girl's" She replied.

"Ok then listen, Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Rose. She was very pretty-"

"Like Ricc ?"

"Ricc is pretty ?" He asked amused.

"Yeah he is the prettiest among you three" Bella said.

Vincenzo rolled his eyes playfully "Why we three only ? What about you ?"

Bella looked at him in disbelief "What do you mean what about me ? I am The Prettiest one in this household. You guys can't even compete with me." She replied sassily earning a look of disbelief from Elder one.

"Wow, what a nice way to say 'You are ugly' !" Vincenzo exclaimed. She giggled.

"Ok ok we are getting out of track, Vinny. So where were we ? Oh ah- yeah She is pretty like Ricc ?"

He rolled his eyes.

"Yeah like Ricc" He replied earning a smile from Bella.

"She was living with her brothers-"

"Like me ?"

"Yeah just like you"

He said pinching her nose chuckling. She giggled.

"Her brothers loves her a lot-"

"Just like you all ?"

He chuckled "yeah just like us"

"She loves her brothers too- yeah just like you" He said before she could interrupt him making her laugh.

He started telling her a story and eventually found her breathing calm.

He looked down only to see her sleeping peacefully on his chest.

He chuckled, fixing her hair behind her ears. He leaned down and kissed her head.
