"Rory it happened again" I said going into her room "what" "I faked it again" "really" "yes" I said laying back on the bottom of her bed "did something happen at the game, you looked pretty annoyed before we started" "well he did that really annoying thing he does when he gets jealous again" "maybe that's why" "I don't know. I don't know what to do anymore. When he gets like this it throws everything off, he changes. It's like he's trying to be more manly or something" "do you think he's maybe intimidated by Isaac" "I don't know what it is. I like Kyle a lot but I don't know how to tell him that I don't like when he gets like this" "I could talk to him" "then he'd know I told you" "I won't say anything about you" "no no I'll talk to him" "okay" "thanks though. Anyways what time is your date today" "six" "what are y'all doing" "just getting dinner nothing too big" "okay. I'm happy for you Rory" "thank you" she said.

Isaacs pov
"I have to get home" I told Andrea "oh okay see you later then" "we'll see I might be busy" "okay I'll call you" "okay" I said leaving.

"Isaac" dad said as I got in the house "yes sir" "did you fix it yesterday" "I did" "so what happened" he asked as I joined him and mom in the living room.

So here's what happened yesterday:

Me and Dixie got ready for school and went to pick up Ricky. When he got in the car, dad called me.
"Isaac I need you to go to Mr. Morellis home and talk something out with him" he said "I have Dixie with me" "take her to Henry he will take her to school" "okay what am I talking out with him" "there's been an issue with his family and the Ferrari family" "what issue" "Mr. Ferrari had Mr. Morellis son do a job and agreed to pay him for it but cheated him out of his money. So word got out from Mr. Morelli that he would send someone to come after them, which is why Mr. Ferrari was here the other night. I figure you'd be best to sort this out and I have some other things I need to deal with" "okay" "good I expect it fixed son" "yes sir" I said before he hung up.

"So what are we doing" Ricky asked when we dropped Dixie off "we are going to talk to Mr. Morelli" "for what" "because Mr. Ferrari is a fucking idiot. He was supposed to pay Freddy Morelli and now Mr. Morelli is upset" "okay".

"Mrs. Morelli how are you" I said as she let us in "I'm well Isaac how are you" she asked "good" "and your mother" "she is good too thank you. We're here to talk to Mr. Morelli if he has the time" "yes of course. Camilla get Mr. Morelli for these gentleman" she said and then showed us to the living room.

"Isaac, Ricky how are you boys" he asked coming down the stairs as we stood up to shake his hand "we're good sir" "what can I help you with" he asked as we all sat "my father sent me to talk to you about the situation with Mr. Ferrari" "yes that cheating bastard. I want my money" "I understand. You and your family have always been very loyal to my father and we would like to do what we can to keep this incident from changing that" "as would I" "how much does he owe you" "half a million dollars" "if I can't get Mr. Ferrari to pay what he owes by Tuesday, I will see to it that my father pays that debt" "your father would pay for him" "if it will de-escalate the situation I'm sure he will" "if you don't follow through" he asked "the target you have on Mr. Ferrari can be placed on me sir" "I hope I get my money, I always liked you kid" "you will get your money" I said before Ricky and I got up to leave.

"Should you have made that deal" he asked as we got in the car "probably not but someone has to be blamed if he doesn't get his money" "yea but if he doesn't get his money he could really send someone to kill you" "I know so we're going to Mr. Ferrari's now. They all should've left by now" "okay".

"Isaac, Ricky shouldn't you be at school" Mr. Ferrari said as he opened the door "uh yea. I wanted to talk to you about Mr. Morelli though" "Mr. Morelli, come in then".

"It's in everyone's best interests if you pay Freddy Morelli as soon as possible" "what for. He did a shitty job" "is the job completed" "it is" "pay what you owe" "or what" "is that a challenge Mr. Ferrari. If you do not pay every cent you owe the Morellis I personally will ruin every member of your family, do you understand" "I understand" he said as Ricky and I got up to leave.

"How much do you actually know about his family" Ricky asked "well his daughter is a whore, his wife had an affair with Mr. Bonetti, and Antonio is the one that shot Harley and they covered the whole thing up and blamed it on one of his goons" "Mr. Bonetti, is that what their falling out was about" "yea" "and didn't the D'Angelos kill that guy" "yea" "Harleys not dead though right" "no, just everyone's luck, he is still alive. Had to get a whole big surgery though".

"You go in I have to call my dad" I told him when I pulled into the school "okay".

"Isaac" "yea I fixed it" "are you at school" "yes sir" "okay. I will get the details when I see you" "okay" I said before he hung up.

"Everything good" Ricky asked as I sat down next to him "yea for now".

"Where have you guys been anyways" Andrea asked "I suggest you don't ask" Ricky told her before she dropped it.

The rest of lunch was pretty silent and when the bell rang I grabbed my stuff from my locker and then went to science.

"Hey are you okay" Hailey asked when I sat down.

"Well I talked to Mr. Morelli, Mr. Ferrari owes him half a million dollars" "what did you tell him" "that if I can't get him the money by Tuesday he can put the target on my back" "you told him what" mom said "it was the only way to get him to see I was serious otherwise he would still go after the Ferraris and that would be a blood bath" "you can't offer your life up in exchange for some money Isaac" mom said "no he's right Anna" dad said "I'm going to be fine mom I can take care of myself but it's better then their two families going at it especially when neither of them would know when to quit" "precisely and if it comes to it I will pay the Ferraris debt and no harm will come to our son" "Isaac I want you with someone at all times if you are not in this house" she said "I will be fine" "just do as your mother says until this is resolved" dad said before mom continued "okay" "good, you're excused".
