Knowing Gia was in town, made Christmas a bit tense and we were basically confined to our house. Also, knowing who Talia's and Bree's fathers were also made things more interesting. I mean, how do you keep something like that from your dad? Yeah, you don't. At least with mine, you don't.
"So, you're telling me we have a Mafioso and arms dealer living in our neighborhood and you just happen to be friends with their daughters," he asked me.
"Well, yeah," I said innocently.
"Please tell me you didn't tell them who we were," he said to me.
I just looked at him, "Tell them? Like telling them you are, tell them?"
He gave me a look, "That's exactly what I mean."
"Well," I started to say sheepishly.
"Ay, Yi Yi! Mija! No one is supposed to know! Now you've put all of us in jeopardy! As of today, you are going to the safe house with Nana and no contact with your friends," he barked.
"But Papi!"
"No buts! This is so bad on so many levels," he huffed.
I turned and went upstairs and packed. I wasn't allowed to call my friends and tell them. I had to go to the safe house and stay put until Gia was captured. If one word slipped, Talia and Bree's father's would kill them. This sucked.
Nana and I climbed into the back of the black SUV while our bags were loaded. Jaxon and Liam climbed into the back while dad climbed in the front. Drew and Jacob followed behind us.
I looked at Jaxon but he didn't speak to me. I knew him and the others were pissed. I basically told the world who they were.
Dad pulled files on both Mr. Taylor and Mr. Genovese. He had to know what they were dealing with besides what they had already to deal with. It was not good.
We pulled up in front of a mansion type of house and got out. I walked over and grabbed my bag while someone took Nana's. We walked inside and were shown to a couple of rooms.
I walked inside and set my bags down. It was sparsely decorated and pretty sterile. I looked around then decided to try and talk to Jaxon. When I found him I found him talking to an older guy.
"I warned you not to get personally involved with this one," he said.
"Yeah, I know. It was a mistake," he answered.
I couldn't believe he said that. I get he's mad, but that hurt. Know I open my heart to someone and they basically tell me it was a mistake? Well, then I guess that's all it was. I will never make that mistake again.
I left before they realized I was standing there. I went up to my room and unpacked. Then I made my way down to the kitchen. I could hear nana yelling in Spanish.
I walked into the kitchen and she was arguing with someone who didn't know what she was saying. I walked over and translated for her. Once he understood he gave her some breathing room by leaving the kitchen.
"Ay, Yi, Yi, what did Mijo get us into?"
"He's just trying to protect us because of me and my big mouth," I sighed.
She walked over and held my face in her hand, "Mija, you are young. You shouldn't be expected to carry a burden like this and your Papi shouldn't expect you too."
She released my face and gently patted it.
"Yeah, well Jaxon feels we are a mistake."
"He's angry. He will get over it," she said, pulling out food to prepare to cook with.
"It doesn't matter. I'm done." She looked at me, "What do you mean done?"
"I'm just done. I have no friends now. The boy I loved sees this as a mistake and now everyone is angry because I opened my mouth. I'm just done," I sighed. I lost my appetite and decided to go back to my room.
I came face to face with Jaxon, "Don't worry, I'm going to my room. You don't have to worry about me. I promise not to make a mistake and talk to you anymore," I huffed as I stormed past him.
I went up to my room and closed my door. I was done. I would stay out of their way, but they needed to stay out of mine.
********
The next few weeks, I just stayed in my room. A tutor was brought in so I didn't fall behind and I took online classes. I spent more time studying than talking to anyone.Nana brought me food so I would eat and tried to talk to me, but I just said, that I needed to study. I didn't want to upset her.
Although it didn't take much for her to understand what was going on. Her English may not be perfect, but she was pretty smart.
She walked down the stairs to see Jaxon talking to Ash and Papi as she walked over to him. She hauled off and smacked him across the face taking Papi and Ash by surprise. Jaxon rubbed his side of his face. She held her finger up at him and started yelling at him in Spanish as dad tried to look away.
Then she broke into English, "You! You fix this! My nieta is broken! You fix broken and make me, babies!"
"Mrs. Martinez will all due respect," Jaxon started.
"Cállate! You tell my nieta, you love her and then say mistake. What is a mistake? Are you being a puta? I want you to go to her room, take her and make babies! Ahora!"
Jaxon looked at her as dad said, "That means now."
He looked at dad and made his way around nana as he ran up the stairs. Then nana started yelling at dad and Ash in Spanish, most of them being profanities.
I heard a knock at my door. I didn't answer it and they kept knocking. I finally got up, "Nana! I said I had to study!" I yelled as I whipped open the door to see Jaxon standing there.
Before I had a chance to speak, he pulled me to him and crashed his lips onto mine, taking me completely by surprise. After a minute we pulled back trying to catch our breath, then I did the thing he wasn't expecting. I hauled off and slapped him across the face.
"What the hell, Sasha?!" He rubbed his face.
"You can't just come up here and kiss me as nothing happened! I'm not some girl that just falls at your feet like, oh Jaxon, I totally forgive you," I said placing my hands together and fluttering my eyelashes.
He stepped forward, "Listen, I was ordered by a scary Mexican woman to come up here and make up with you because she wants babies," he said with determination.
I looked at him and pushed him out of the way. I walked out of the room and over to the railing, then yelled down to nana. I started yelling Spanish at her and she returned the favor as we used our hands with emphasis. We argued and finally she told me that I needed to get my head out of my ass.
Dad was trying not to laugh. I turned and walked back into the room. I walked over to Jaxon, "Apparently I have to make up with you," I scoffed.
"Fine by me," he shrugged as he pulled me to him, then he crashed his lips into mine. Things started to get heated as we knocked things over in the room. Then we heard someone clear their throat. We stopped, as Jaxon looked at me. I pushed him off of me, as I wiped off my mouth.
"Oh hey Papi," I smiled.
Jaxon turned around and had lipstick smeared all over his face.
"No babies," he said, waving his finger at us.
"Yes, babies!" Nana yelled.
He turned and yelled down at her as he started speaking in Spanish. She promptly yelled back in Spanish as she ended with, "Yes babies!"
I facepalmed myself as Jaxon chuckled.
"By the way, I missed your lips and ass," he said as he casually strolled out of my room, well, okay, then.
Leave it to nana to fix things old school style.
