Taming The Family

28. Lava In A Box

Levi's P.O.V. 

"No, no NO!" My father scolded as he wound his way into our aunt's living room. "Stay right there, love, I will get that for you!" My mother shot my father a bewildered look. "Loki I'm just-" She tried to explain as she leaned forward again. 

My dad cut her off by gently pushing her back into the couch and grabbing the remote off the coffee table. "You need to rest, I'm not going to let you injure yourself." My mom raised a single eyebrow and had an amused look in her brown eyes. 

I placed the novel Steve had let me borrow in my jean covered lap and focused on my two parents. "Loki, it's good for me to move a little." She explained as if he was a five year old. 

"Give me your hand." My father instructed. My mother did as was told only for my father to drop her hand. "There, you have moved for the day." My mom scoffed as she zipped up the grey hoodie she was wearing. 

As my father made his way around the couch I was sitting on, his green eyes narrowed. "Sofia!" My sister groaned and I heard the door close. When I turned around I saw Sofia at the door in a knee length black dress. 

I rotated my whole body so I could get a good view of this show. "Where are you off to?" My father questioned. Sofia looked to the floor as she tucked a black curl behind her ear. "Me and Dylan have a date today...."

I waited in the awkward silence until my father spoke up. "Here." He paused as he took something out of his pocket. Sofia was confused as he put the red handled dagger in her hand.I held back a laugh as my sister flipped the dagger between her fingers. "What am I supposed to do with this?"

"Now you can kill someone." My father explained, although she could have done that without the dagger. My sister let out an amused scoff. "What do you want me to do, stab Dylan?" My father only shrugged. 

Sofia walked over to the dining room table and set the dagger down. "I need to go, I'll be back in a few hours." 

"WAIT!" I yelled as I hurdled over the couch. My sock covered feet slid on the wood floor as I stopped next to them. "Can you stay, f-for a minute? There something I need to tell you guys..." I muttered awkwardly.

I could feel my mothers gaze from the couch as everyone tried to figure out what I meant. "What is it?" My mom asked, slightly concerned. I sucked in a big breath and narrowed my eyes when Sofia smirked. 

"Go on Levi, tell them!" She urged, taking a seat at the table. I scratched the back of my neck and decided to just get it over with. "Well I-" A knock on the front door interrupted me.

A smile graced my lips and I walked over to the door. "How about I just show you." I opened the door to see a beautiful woman standing on the porch. She had soft blonde hair that curled slightly down her back. A delicate smile was on her lips and her grey eyes had a tender innocence in them. 

She was wearing black leggings with a deep red shirt and a black leather jacket to finish it off. Her pink clips curled upwards as she stepped inside. As the door shut behind us I wrapped my arm around her waist.

As we got closer to my family she seemed to tuck herself further and further into my side. "Mom, dad, Sofia, this is Arianna." I exclaimed, placing a soft kiss on the blonde's cheek. 

"It's a pleasure to meet you all." Arianna said in a quiet voice. My mom leaned on the back of the couch as she extended her arm. "The pleasure is ours, I'm Sera." My father sent my mother a glare for leaving the couch but was soon at her side to help her stand. 

"Tom." My father muttered, shaking Arianna's hand. "I'm Sofia!" My sister announced, enthusiastically shaking Arianna's hand. I rolled my eyes but Arianna didn't seem to mind. My mother awkwardly cleared her throat. "How long have you two known each other?"
