The brothers and her *DISCONTINUED*

Washer

GIO'S POV:

I watch as my little sister sits in front of the washer, staring at it mesmerized.

Apple juice was accidently spilled onto Crush the toy she seems to love so much, which led to many tears.

After the incident with the guy a few days earlier she has been on edge, reasonably of course.

Even Luca was a bit nervous since the guy got into our house, luckily Atlas came home the following day and began interrogating the guy.

Turns out, our aunt owed him quite a bit of money, he insisted she hid it somewhere and from what we gathered he had been watching Maize for days through sources inside of our house.

We had to upgrade security which wasn't an issue, but it still freaked everyone out.

Maize seemed to only want to sleep with one of us since or we will wake up to her having a nightmare.

It's happened three times and it ends up waking up the entire house, she's been seeing a therapist named Polly since it took place, the same one Luca sees.

I walk out of the laundry room finding Nic in the living room next to Luca.

I sit beside Luca. "Are you both sure that he won't get in again? I mean the guards good all be rats for all we know" Concern fills Luca's voice as he questions us.

"It's true, one of them could easily be a rat but if they are we will handle it. As for the man let's just say he won't be coming back. I think Atlas made sure of that" Nic doesn't tell him the full truth, Atlas still has the guy locked away in a warehouse.

And who knows if the guy will ever leave the warehouse again, after what he did.

Not only breaking into our home but scaring our younger siblings. He messed up big time, I doubt he will ever make it out honestly.

Luca only nods opting for silence.

I look to Nic who looks to me having a silent conversation through our eyes.

"Is anything in specific going to make you feel safer?" Nic asks carefully.

"I don't know, maybe a dog?" Typically, I would immediately say no, however under the circumstances.

Luca looked over at me with hopeful eyes.

"I'll look into it." I mutter standing up to check on Maize again.

I head back to the laundry room finding

"It beeped!!!" She screeches running over to me.

"Okay, now we have to dry it, it won't take too long." Her face turns into a frown, and I pick her up.

Why don't you have a snack or something? It may make it go by faster" I offer an activity, so she doesn't sit there for so long.

She agrees and I take her to the kitchen getting her a juice box and some goldfish setting it in front of her.

"Maize do you like Dogs?" I look at her and she smiles.

"I l-love doggies!" I guess we're getting a dog then.

Sorry for the short chapter also sorry, I haven't updated since July. Honestly, I had so much writer's block but I'm hoping to start updating as much as I can. Hope you all have a good day!
