[Ezio x Reader Fanfic] May the father of understanding guide us

7} Presents

This chapter takes place a few weeks after you had dinner with the Auditores. Enjoy,
;)
(+not sure if I made it clear but you are around 16-18 years old, sorry for any confusion!)
-----------------------------------------

You run down the stairs, wearing your black trousers and white shirt. Ezio had invited you to the market with him to buy a gift for his younger brother Petruccio seeming as his birthday is only a few days away. You are nearly out of the door when your father calls.
"(Y/N)! Come here!" You walk your way back to his study and stand in the doorway. Rodrigo Borgia's eyes locked with yours and he smiles. You are slightly shocked that he is smiling and not frowning as he usually is.
"Where are you going? Is it that boy again?" He asks eagerly, which confuses you.
Aren't fathers meant to be displeased about their daughters going out and seeing boys!?! Especially ones they haven't even met!
"Ummm.... Yeah, I was going to go with him to the markets to get his brother a present!" You reply excitedly.
Your father looks at you and smiles even more, you tell yourself that it's just because you are excited about Petruccio's birthday but you know it's something else. You know that you father has never loved you. You were never a daughter to him. You were a Templar prodigy, his project. It hurt at first but you don't care now, you didn't really love him either.
"Well then, tell me how it goes." He says. Just as you are about to leave he calls for you, "(Y/N)! Don't get too attached to that family. They won't always be there for you to run to, but the Templars will. Try to remember that, okay?"
You are shocked to hear a hint of concern in his voice. You are still confused and not quite able to talk so you just nod and run out of the room. You run to the stable and jump on your (F/C) horse. As you canter out of the courtyard and through the woodland path your heart beats hard in you chest.
I can't wait to see Ezio!
You think about him a lot, maybe not romantically yet but there is definitely something more between you and him.

~~~~~(time skip)~~~~~

You walk into the crowded market and struggle to catch sight of Ezio. He was meant to meet you right here at midday. You look up towards the blazing sun.
He is definitely meant to be here now. Where is he? I'm going to kill him if he has ditched me!
Just then, a hand lands heavily on your shoulder.
"(Y/N)! Good to see you again!" You recognize the heavy Italian accent immediately.
"Ezio," your heart flutters a tad and you turn around to face him," it's good to see you too! I'm glad we could do this together, I have a few ideas about what we could get Petruccio!"
"Ah, yes. I was wondering what you would come up with."
"Well, he likes to collect feathers, right?" Ezio nods slowly. "So maybe we should get him more feathers? Or a little box to keep them in? Although I don't know if he would li-"
"I'm sure he would love that, it's very thoughtful of you. I'm glad I asked you to help." He smiles and the scar on his lip stretched. You have to try very hard not to reach out and touch it. You realize you have been staring for too long and turn away, blushing profusely.
"Where can we get feathers?" You look around but can't see anywhere likely to sell them.
"I know just the place!" He says as he grabs you hand and pulls you down a busy street. There are so many people around that moving becomes a challenge. You pull back on Ezio's hand. He spins to face you and you point upwards.
"The roofs? It would be easier to move!" He looks apprehensive. "Can you climb?"
"Yes but it is more dangerous, are you sure?"
"Yes, if we run into any trouble I have a dagger and a few throwing knives." At this he looks to you, utterly shocked.
"My father gave them to me for protection, i can use them just fine." You smirk at his confused face. If only I could tell him about the arsenal in my basement!
Before he has time to reply, you run up the nearest building and jump from ledge to ledge until you feel tile under your fingers. You pull yourself up and peer cautiously over the edge of the roof. Ezio is about half way up the wall. You sigh and walk towards the centre of the roof.
I sure as hell hope he gets better at climbing!

-----------------------------------------

Ok well nobody commented weather or not I should keep writing so I'm going to carry of a while and see if any more
people are going to read. Meanwhile, I'll have to cut it to doing one chapter whenever I can and occasionally a few chapters in one day.
If you are one of the few reading this then please don't be shy, I you have any comments then please do say something! I want to know what you think of this series!

Thanks guys,
