The Switch

Chapter 18

Right now... Neither of us knew what we were... We had absolutely no idea what we were doing, we just did it

"Where are we gonna go now?"
Alessia asked

"Back home"
I said

"Alessandro...stop the car....I can't go with you"
Ruby said looking at me wide eyed

"I'm not letting anything happen to you, you can't stay here that Shane would hurt you"
I said

"Alessandro... Stop the car, I can't go with you"
She said yelling at me

"You will not go anywhere, get that"
I said

"Alessandro...."

"Be quiet"
I cut in before she could protest

She turned around and looked out the window obviously defeated

The sun had started going down during our drive

We reached the airport and the sky was grey... It was snowing out but not too heavy to not fly

After sometime we got into the private jet and was on our way back home

Ever since we yelled at each other in the car neither of the both of us has had a conversation ... We only had small talks that didn't even last up to a minute... Nothing more

I don't like it at all... Not even in the slightest... I shouldn't have talked to her like that, she was just doing what any other person in her shoes would do

After we landed in New York

I drove straight to my house with my sister while Matteo decided to go home with Gloria

She's been through a lot today... She needs rest

It was 6 when the plane landed... We hadn't slept for a whole day... Everyone looked tired and sleep deprived

I layed Luna in her room to sleep and Alessia joined her on the bed

"Sleep wherever you want... There's only two rooms downstairs"
I said to Ruby as I got out of my daughters room closing the door

I felt tired

"Can I sleep with you Mr Amoretti?"
She asked looking at me

"Please"
She said

"You don't have to beg... You'd sleep with me"
I said

I thought after what happened in the car she'd be angry with me ... Not wanting to share a room with me

"I don't beg Mr Amoretti"
She said folding her hands

"The other night weren't you..."

"Oh hush"
She said and I chuckled

"Ruby "
I said

"I'm right here... You don't have to say my name "
She said resting on the wall

This girl had attitude

"I'm sorry about what happened earlier... I shouldn't have talked to you like that... I was wrong, I've realized my mistake, I won't do it again, just talk to me like this and don't stop ... Please "
I said and she smiled... She blushed
