Love, Passion, Pain (Sequel)

A Glass House For Us To Play

As they walked back into the house. Nico was silent he wasn't saying a word.

Amora. Nico your scaring me. What happened?

Nico. I just have a memory that's all...
He took a seat on the couch. No emotion in his eyes.

Amora. Of what?

Nico. Nothing. I'm going to take a shower

He walked out of the room leaving a confused and concerned Amora standing in the living room. There must be something about that scar she touched that brought back memories from his past.

As she started thinking about it she realized she really didn't know much about his past. Actually she didn't know anything about it.

Amora had given him ten minutes and then went into the room. The shower was still going, the door unlocked. So she stripped out of her clothes and opened the door to Nico in the shower. His head up against the wall.

Without saying a word she got in and stop behind him, rubbing his shoulders.

Amora. Nico talk to me

Nico. I... I used to stay with my auntie sometimes. Her name was Kimberly she was abusive and she treated me really bad when my mom wasn't around. My mom was always out to doctors appointments and the hospital because of her cancer so I was always with her

Amora. Did she do this?
She said looking at the scar on his back.

Nico. Yeah, I was seven

Amora. She was horrible to you

Nico. I couldn't blame her, I wanted to and I still do but something wasn't right with her. She wasn't right mentally.

Amora. Why did you never tell anyone?

Nico. My mother was suffering enough as it was I just didn't want her to worry

Amora. I see, I'm sorry Nico but thank you for sharing that with me
She wrapped her arms around him as much as she could and he laid his head back on hers, letting the water hit the both of them.

Once they were out they got in the bed and laid there.

Amora. Don't worry about tomorrow Nico, you and I. We will be fine

Nico. What does that mean?

Amora.Get some sleep Nico
She kissed his chest and laid down on him.

In reality not even Amora knew what she had just said. What does Fine mean? They go back to being strangers? Do they actually be together? Will they be friends? She had no idea.
....
Nico's POV
I can't.... I won't... I refuse to lose her again. I'm not myself when she's gone. She got me to work out again. She got me ready to get back into action. She encourages me. She holds me up. She's the first woman to make me feel like this. The first woman other than my mom that I actually love. I'm not letting her walk out of my life again. If I have to be possessive, if I have to be the boss of her again, I will, whatever it takes.
...
The morning came after a long night and Nico woke To a sleeping Amora.

Nico. Amor
He said with a seductive French accent while gently biting the top of her ear. He could hear her giggle. She turned around and faced him.

Amora. Good morning

Nico. Morning

Amora. How did you sleep?

Nico. I didn't

Amora. What?

Nico. I watched you sleep, an angel indeed

Amora. Nico, you are going to be tired

Nico. I'll be To anxious to be tired

Amora. I will make you breakfast

She said getting up and heading to the door.
Nico. Hey

Amora. Yeah?

Nico. One step at a time
She nodded and left.

The morning went by quick. There was no time to relax and enjoy there last hour together. Now they were sitting on a boat with Chester, waiting to face the world together. If they even got to. Who knows? Lorenzo might kill them both.

After arriving at the doc. Nico rented a car and drove them back to the city where it all started. Manhattan.

Amora. I have to see my sister

Nico. Of course, we will stop by my safe house first

Amora. And after?

Nico. One step at the time

They pulled up at the house and Lorenzo basically came sprinting out of the house before they could get out of the car.

Lorenzo. Ni..., Am...
But he couldn't form sentences.

Lorenzo. I should murder you both!

Amora. I'm sorry I just needed...

Lorenzo. What the hell were you three thinking!?

Amora. I found Nico, Lorenzo

Lorenzo. You disappeared without me knowing! After I had already lost Nico, you... you assholes!

Nico. I'm sorry, it was my fault I shouldn't have left

Lorenzo. Let's just get inside. Where is Cher?

Amora. Your asking me I left her with you?

Lorenzo. Wait. Cher isn't with you?

Amora. Lorenzo! I left her here with you!

Lorenzo. She disappeared right after you I thought you guys left together

Amora. Oh no

Nico. Just, come on let's get inside and think this through.

Amora. No, I'm going back to my old apartment and to the shop to check if she is there, did you call her phone?

Lorenzo. A billion times, nothing, she can't be far

Amora. She should be here!

Lorenzo. Well if you hadn't of left she wouldnt have gone looking for you!

Then Amora slapped him.

Amora. Where is she!?

....
Cher. Help! Help!
She struggled in her handcuffs and as she was cuffed to a pole. The room was dark and damp. She was kidnapped. But by Who and why? Then a door opened.

Cher. Let me go!

But the man said nothing, he just moved toward her and then stopped.

Cher. What will you do to me?

... it's an honor, Cher, sister of the beautiful, naïve, Amora

Cher. Who are you!?

... I'm about to become your worst nightmare

This man although she couldn't see him he had an ominous presence about him. His eyes almost with no color and a nasty scar running down his face.

... I tried to have her, but Nico got to her first

Cher. You're talking about Amora?

... if I can't have her, I will have you instead

Cher. Please? Who the hell are you?!

... I am Mylon, and you... are mine.
