Saving you (boyxboy)

1 month later

Gio's POV

It had been a month of being locked away in my room. I can't tell you how I've survived this long. I knew he broke more ribs since I've been locked away. I'm losing vision in my right eye from how much he has been hitting me. I couldn't tell you how bad I stink because I haven't had a shower in forever.

He hasn't given me food or water in almost a week. Every night he'll come home drunk and then beat me until I almost pass out.

He had just had his daily session about 45 minutes ago and I could hear his loud snores from down the hall.

I crawled my way to the door to find it open to my surprise. I let out a small sob before crawling my way to the kitchen. I quickly grabbed the phone. I needed his help. I'll let him this time. I want to leave. I'll be 18 in a week.

I dialed his number after searching for the paper he gave me. He was my only hope even though I hardly knew him.

"Hello." He voice brought me joy.

"Lorenzo." I spoke in no more than a whisper.

"Gio, baby doll, is that you?"

Lorenzo's POV

"Lorenzo, please help me." He sounded so scared. His voice was hoarse.

"Baby doll, where are you?" He told me his address and the line went dead. Which sent me into panic mode.

I don't know what it is about this boy but I knew I had to protect him. He made me feel ways that I knew would benefit me in the long run

I arrived at the house, which looked horrible if I had to be honest. I made my way up to the house and quietly knocked on the door. It took awhile so I look inside the window to see Gio pulling himself up from the ground and quietly making his way to the window where he saw me. He looked rough again. Worse than the last time I saw him.

He looked at me through the glass before pulling out a piece of paper from his pocket. I don't have the code to the alarm so when I open the door we need to be quick because the sound of the alarm will wake him up.

I nodded before getting in stance to grab him and his bag. It took him a minute to gather himself off the ground. He must be hurting real bad again. I doubt his ribs healed up properly.

The sound of loud beeping pulled me out of my thoughts to see Gio trying to be quick with leaving the house. I picked him up and rushed us to the car. As soon as we reach the car and I had gradually put him in, I heard yelling behind me. Without looking back, I yelled a huge "Fuck you" and climbed in my car.

"I'm taking you to my fathers house. The doctor is over there right now." I spoke to him genteelly. Only he didn't respond. I looked over at him to see him trying not to pass out. He began coughing at this point too. Before I knew it, blood was everywhere and his breathing sounded rigid.

I rushed him inside the house while calling for the doctor. Gio had passes out half way here and wouldn't wake up for me. "What the hell is going on here?!" my father yelled once I handed Gio over to the Doc.

I couldn't form any words. I was on the verge of crying when I heard the doctor yelling at his assistant to grab various of things while he was putting a tube down his throat.

"Lorenzo, who is this boy?" My father whispered while pulling me out of the room and into his office.

"His name is Gio Rossi and-and-." I choked up trying to explain but dad decided to interrupt. "As in James Rossi? I froze right in my tracks. He was leader of The Sacra Corona Unita. Our worst enemy.

"I think so. All I know is that he beats him." My father shook his head and we stood in silence for a minute. "What's your relation with this boy?" He asked with slight concern.

"All I know father is that whenever I'm around him I don't want to let him go even though he is a stubborn shit. He makes me feel something good." I whispered, not meeting his eyes. I had a feeling he would be upset since Gio was connected with James.

"I'll talk to him and then I'll decide if he'll be good for you and will be able to stay with you." I nodded, knowing not to mess with his judgement. He had a very stern demeanor and to not disobey anything he said.
