The night was particularly quiet at this certain time of the night, no screaming in the streets or cop sirens blaring-- which was an extremely rare ordeal. Weeks had past since the incident between Gaege and Y/n had occurred and it was all very strange, saying as the two hadn't made contact at all, let alone crossed each others paths on missions. Anyway, this certain night, Gaege sat peacefully in the living room of his- at the time-  semi empty home. The rest of his family had taken time away from Gotham, apart from Reekid. Not that it mattered much anyway because the teenager always locked himself away into his cave of a room, sewn to his brand new gaming console. 

Gaege didn't seem to mind though, it gave him more time to aimlessly stare into the fire pit doped up on ketamine. For being as intellectually strategical as Gaege was, he sure as hell did do a lot of drugs on his free time just for the hell of it. It was the calm to his storm and what he considered to be his "down time". 

Leaning off his head to the side he could feel himself growing drowsy, up until a knock on the door was heard. "Oh fuck off, please." he muttered under his breathe and sloppy threw his head over to his side table, swiping the pistol which laid perfectly in reach, before slowly rising to his feet. "I swear to god, it better be fucking door dash." He hurried over to the door and took the time to stand there for a minute, squinting his eyes in attempt to make out the shadow which stood behind the door. "Who is it!" he called out and clocked his pistol back, leaning forward towards the door to hear the voice. 

"It's Eddie. Open the door. I'm unarmed." The strong Mexican accent stated through the door with a sort of defeated tone in his voice, alerting the man, in reaction causing the man to slowly open the door, hesitantly. He knew he couldn't be there to cause harm. "The fuck are you doing here?"he questioned abruptly, tilting his head in confusion as he was met face to face with the tall Mexican. 

"We need to talk, can I come in?" Eddie asked cautiously and peered around the behind of Gaege's surrounding, making sure it was absolutely certain his family had gone out. "About what, first." Gaege stared at him with suspicious eyes and scanned the figured entire body, searching for any gun or knife shaped bumped along his clothes, to which he didn't end unrecognising. "It's about Y/n." Eddie raised his bare hands up into the air, keeping his eyes trained onto the gun that Gaege clutched tightly in his hand. 

Upon hearing her name, Gaege's gaze immediately softer, the grip on his gun loosening ever so slightly. Trying to maintain the same composure he had, his eyebrows furrowed "What about her?... Look if this is about the ki-" He started before Eddie moved past the man and entered Gaege's house uninvited "It circulates it." He sighed. 

Gaege wasn't even mad that he pushed past him, both the curiosity and ketamine completely taking over his train fo the thought as he gently shut the door behind him, leading Eddie into the living room. "Okay well what's this about? I mean, showing up at my door step int he middle of the night must make it pretty important. It better fuckin be anyway." Gaege waved his pistol at Eddie as he took a seat in the lazy boy in front of the fireplace, observing as Eddie followed after. 

"She told me today that she wants to see you. That she misses you, can you believe it?" Eddie laughed quietly in disbelief and shook his head. The sentence shook Gaege slightly, a ball forming in his throat as he stared off into the fire which raged with his heartbeat. "Okay... Well why are you here then?" Gaege squinted his eyes as he trailed back over to the man who was already looking right at him. "Because I need you to hurt her. Not physically, but you know what I mean. We both know you two should've never of been a thing, and I don't need her dwelling on some kind of delusion going on in her head that is never going to happen." Eddie spoke matter o factly and shrugged. 

Gaege felt slightly put off my Eddies choice of words, the sudden ask being popped up very abruptly to him-- not even really an ask, it was a demand. He didn't like this. "What makes you think I'd do that for you? hm?" Gaege glanced over at the (beautifully) tanned man with a look of hostility and let his head fall to the side "You have a lot of nerve coming into my home and immediately demanding things"

"Yeah well, if you don't I could just tell both sides of this family you locked lips with her uninvited." Eddie shrugged with a smug smile and leaned back into the sofa, letting his eyes latch onto the burning flames which illuminated his face perfectly. Hearing the draw back of the pistol Gaege held in his possession, he clicked his tongue "And if you pull that trigger, she will know it was you because I left a note on my bed stating my location right now...aannndd she will never speak to you again, or come after you herself." Eddie laughed with a tang of mischief and evil, knowing he had mastered the entire plan with extreme articulation. It almost baffled Gaege himself. Eddie had truly came up with the ultimate ultimatum, and there was not a fucking thing he could do about it. 

"Don't fucking flatter yourself Edward." Gaege hissed as he slowly drew back the pistol and placed it on his lap, feeling a knot in his stomach grow. Deep down he had already come to the conclusion that this was something he genuinely couldn't slip out of like how he usually could, sucking in a deep breath as he thought over the situation. He didn't want to do that to Y/n-- For fuck sakes he still had unresolved feelings for the girl and now he was being forced to shatter any chance he had at a comeback with her? This fucking immigrant kicked him right where it fucking stung. "Literally what the fuck do you get out of this? So what she said she misses me, why the fuck does that bug you so bad huh? you having a tantrum because she didn't fall for her lifetime bestie?" Gaege spat harshly, glaring over at his perpetrator which sat no less than a metre away. 

Eddie squinted his eyes in irritation and shook his head in denial "no, I just don't want her falling for a no good fuck head like you. let alone someone she's condemned from even seeing if it's not involving a gun fight." his finger ran along the arm of the chair slowly as he spoke with an eerly calm tone. The words stung like a knife to the chest to Gaege, knowing it was the truth but wanting it so badly to not be. so, biting his lip he let himself swallow back his pride "I'll think about it, just get the fuck out." He muted quietly and rubbed his mouth, biting the inside of his cheek. 

"Good idea." Eddie smiled cheekily and gladly rose up from the comfortable sofa, giving Gaege a pat not he shoulder as her made his way past, towards the door. A 10 second time stamp of silence lived out , until eventually being broken but he sound of the door shutting, finally allowing Gaege to let down his guard down. 

letting his tense body now relax into the sofa, he let out a load groan, thousands of thoughts rushing through his head as he sat completely dissociated on the couch, the heat in his stomach spreading throughout the rest of his body. "fucking cunt!" He called out in frustration, swiping and rocketing the pistol which sat on his lap, at the brick wall. "mother fucking fuck! fuck!" His dark eyes drilled holes through any wall he looked at, rage bubbling in his head. 

He couldn't believe this motherfucker just hit him with that and laughed on his way out. if anything was sure, Eddie did have the upper hand on him and he fucking hated it. His entire evening being ruined, he decided to call it a day and head up to his room, needing time to really collect his mind and try to find a different way around this. He had to admit, he did not want to lose Y/n, he had grown to fond of her. Sure they hadn't spoken in a while and she was very out of touch but, after having a few weeks to rearrange his brain, he probably- really would kiss her again. It was just shitty that it wasn't allowed. 

oh the struggles of being the children of a fucking mafia boss.
