Domenico parks his car up in what looks to be some sort of secluded area. We left the house so quickly that we're both still in Christmas pyjamas.

"Stay next to me Anna" Domenico instructs as we get out the car. I nod before following him into some sort of warehouse, only then do i recognise where we are.

"What the heck" I utter as we enter the warehouse to be met with dozens of people surrounding a boxing ring.

"They even have these fights on Christmas Eve, screams jobless to me" i mumble speaking my thoughts out loud.

"Not the time Arianna" Domenico responds causing me to roll my eyes. I was just saying.

Domenico grabs my hand and pushes his way to the front. My eyes widen as I notice who's fighting. It's Federico.

He's on top of another fighter pounding him with punches. It's none stop. Rico looks focused however I can sense his distress from here. The crowd cheering is pissing me off, he's clearly not in the right state of mind.

"Federico stop" Domenico yells to Rico who doesn't stop, in fact I don't think he even notices us.

This isn't good, not at all. He could kill that boy and he will if something doesn't happen.

Suddenly, Domenico takes out his gun and fires shots at the ceiling. Immediately the onlookers start scrambling away. Rico also stops what he's doing allowing the boy he's beating to crawl away.

"What do you think you're doing" a man runs over to us before grabbing Domenico's arm.

"Don't touch him" I warn taking a step closer. The man turns to me before looking me up and down.

"Who are you little girl, you guys have some audacity-" the man doesn't get to finish as Domenico yanks his hand away before punching him, knocking him clean out.

"Well done" I utter to Domenico who smiles ever so slightly. We direct our attention back to Federico who is now sat down against the cage with his head in his hands. Oh my poor Rico.

We both run over to him and crouch down. "Hey, Rico it's Domenico and Anna" Domenico says in the softest tone Ive ever heard him speak.

Federico looks up with a panicked look before moving away. He seems to be dazed out. "St...stop" he cries shocking me.

"STOP" he yells before placing his head back in his hands and rocking back and forth. My heart aches for him, he's tormented.

"He's having flashback, we need to get him back now" Domenico mumbles before sighting.

"Talk to him Anna, he really loves you" Domenico mumbles shocking me. Federico really loves me? That's so cute.

I nod before slowly walking over and crouching down in front of him. I've had panic attacks before but not like this. He's really suffering.
