Luca in the picture above.
5 days later
Emma's POV
It's now 5 days later since my dad told me about my new bodyguard Luca Rossi. I've known Luca since I was 8 or 9. He's a few years older than me. He's 21. 5 years older... I forget that sometimes.
The truth is, is that I accidentally kissed him once when I was 12, he looked at me shocked but then dismissed it but after a few days, he seemed to distance after and then he left for training. I felt some resentment towards him after he left because he promised me that he would visit the holidays but that never happened.
So now I keep my distance just to be safe and keep my guard up. I look behind me as I'm walking towards my room and see Luca following a few paces behind me. When we get to my room I go inside and he follows me as he sits in his usual assigned place in the room whilst I go and sit on my bed and get out my laptop.
After 10 minutes, I hadn't managed to find what I was looking for before deciding to shut my laptop and put it away then I looked up to look at Luca as he sat on the chair next to my desk and scrolled on his phone. After staring at him for a moment I decided to try and talk to him.
I look at Luca as I take a deep breath before starting a conversation.
"Luca?"
He's silent for a moment before I hear him respond.
"What is it, Emma?" He sighs as he keeps his eyes on his phone with a stoic tone.
"Nothing much I just wanted to talk to you," I say
He's silent again before he turns off his phone and comes to sit on my bed before he looks at me.
"Ok, Emma what do you want to talk about?"
"I just wanted to ask you a few questions about what's been going on the last few years. Like training, what was that like?"
"Ok, I'll answer your questions as to your first question about training I suppose I'll say that it was extremely intense as well as challenging but overall I managed to increase my defence skills etc. I also managed to train with your dad for a while."
I held up my hand to stop him for a moment.
I was slightly stunned that my father had done training with him. But I'm honestly not surprised my dad trains a lot of the people that we have.
When I looked back at him I saw the soft look that he had in his eyes before he noticed I was looking at him and the soft look was gone replaced with blankness.
The silence afterwards felt deafening before he decided to break the silence his voice softening a bit whereas before it was tense.
"Did you have any more questions, Emma?"
I shook my head to say yes as there was still one question in the back of my head that I wanted an answer to.
"Yes, just one more question.." He nodded at me as if to say 'go on'
".. Why did you avoid me and then In the end before you left you distanced yourself from me? Why did you do that?"
He looked at me shocked for a second. "No just forget about it. Don't ask that again." He said.
"But Luca.." I tried to ask.
But started shaking his head at himself and got off the bed before he marched towards my door and slammed it shut behind him as he stormed out of my room.
At that moment I couldn't help but feel bad for pushing at the subject. But I also knew he was hiding something from me and I'm going to find out what. After all, I'm not just a mafia daughter for nothing.
