They were both forced into it.
Gabrielle was forced by her father to marry Austin and Austin had no choice but to marry her if he wanted to take his father's position as the leader of the most wanted mafia.
This is The Arrangement that started it a...
Today is the day I meet the person I'll be spending the rest of my miserable life with.
I woke up this morning in my bed before getting up to get ready for school. I quickly hopped in the shower for 20 minutes before getting out, I did my hair and makeup before changing to an outfit.

I packed an outfit for the dinner and make up in my gym bag since I'm going to Nina's after school and dragging her ass to this stupid dinner with me.
I grabbed my school bag and left the house before my dad would see me and start to sweet talk me.
I made a quick stop at Starbucks before heading to school. I parked my car in the parking lot "What is this that I hear that you're getting married?!" Nina immediately came to my side "Good morning to you too" I sarcastically said handing her, her drink
"Gabi!" She yelled impatiently "I'll explain everything later when we are getting ready at your house for the stupid dinner you will be attending with me" I said walking ahead of her
We walked in the building to hear whispers and getting stared by the students, typical morning.
We get all this attention because what our fathers are known for, Nina's father is my dad's best friend and right hand man.
We both went to our lockers and grabbed what we need for our first classes before walking to class.
It's gonna be a long day.
After school, Nina and I both rushed to her house and she dragged me upstairs to her room. While we were getting ready, I explained everything to her.
"That's fucked up shit" she gasped once I was telling her everything "I know" I sighed curling the last strand of my hair
"What are you gonna do?" She asked looking at me worriedly "I can't do anything" I said "This was bound to happen, that's how our lives are" It's true, in the gang life if the leader is retiring their first son will take over but in order for them to take over they have to get married and most marriages are arranged, once they turn 18 they get until they're 20 to find someone to settle down and if they don't, well you know the rest.
"But don't you have to be 20 to get married?" Nina asked confused "I guess the dude is 20 and hasn't found someone to settle down with and it's only required for the guys, us girls are screwed" I said re touching my make up
"You know, it's still early to pack our shit and get the first flight to Italy" she said with a serious look
I chuckled "I know but do you also know that they will easily find us" I pointed out
