Kairi's pov.

I woke up again with mattia next to me. I must've fallen asleep when i got in the car.

Mattia stared at the tv in the room, biting one of the nails on his fingers. I snuggled into him, feeling soft that i had found my person.

"finally." He huffed.

"what?" I looked up.

"you've been asleep for like 8 hours." Mattia complained, sitting up.

"and you couldn't sleep next to me?"

"it's the middle of the day." He stood up, his bones cracking loudly.

I chuckled softly and walked downstairs with him. Alvaro and roshaun were downstairs, arguing presumably.

"we need to find an excuse for alejandro! people are wondering where he is! AND we don't even what happened to him!" Alvaro screamed.

I stopped mattia at the bottom of the stairs. "they're talking about alejandro. stay here please."

He agreed, and sat at the bottom. "good morning morons." I announced once i got into the kitchen.

"it's 6pm?" Roshaun said.

"mayhaps. what're y'all arguing about now?" I said, sitting next to them.

"alejandro. he just disappeared, right before you came back." Alvaro hit his head.

I stayed silent, not knowing what to say. I couldn't say the truth, then alvaro and roshaun would want kill mattia.

"did he tell you anything?"

"no?"

"what about mattia?"

"i could ask. i'll go get him." I walked off and went to mattia. "do not tell them that you killed alejandro." I whispered, begging him.

I saw him smile weakly, and take my hand. "then what do i say?" He asked.

My eyes dilated. "are you that dumb mattia? just don't tell them you killed him. otherwise you'll end up in the same fucking position! you be dead in a dumpster!" I tried to put fear in him, by telling him the consequences. "ALSO with your ex girlfriend that just happened to be there."

"wait you kille-"

I put a single finger to my lips and hushed him, leading him out there.

"oh hey mattia, we were just talking about alejandro. you didn't see him a while ago did you?" Alvaro perked up.

"n-no. before k-kai came back he just disappeared."

I mentally facepalmed at his stuttering, and tugged my hand away from his. Both roshaun and alvaro looked hesitant to believe his answer, but went along with it anyways.

"oh well. Alvaro, i don't think if we can't find him now, we probably can't find him at all." Roshaun sighed, signaling me to go into the other room.

I followed, telling mattia to stay.

"are you sure you haven't seen ale." He put his hands on my shoulders. I told him to shut up.

"roshaun you can't tell aloe. mattia did kill him."

"he what!" He whispered and stormed out of the room. "y-you fucking killed him!" Roshaun shouted and pointed at mattia.

Mattias eyes widened and put his hands up. "i-i didn't mean to!" I ran to go stand in front of him.

"shoot him and you'll be gone." I referred to roshaun, who was holding a gun up.

"surely you wouldn't." Aloe intervened, stepping near roshaun.

"don't try me. you saw what happened to robert and clearly alejandro." I breathed out.

I could feel mattia shaking away behind me. I put my hand on his to help ease him.

I was hoping and praying mattia wouldn't switch. I couldn't handle another death.

Roshaun put the gun down. "you've changed kairi. ever since mattia came, you've become soft."

I kept my mouth shut. Roshaun kept walking closer while, aloe moved away.

"but you haven't noticed." His voice deepened. "and it doesn't matter to you."

I sighed. "stop."

"because. you're. in. charge. so you get to do anything you want. you don't care kairi, for years you have treated us like utter shit. you don't care. and you never did. all you care about is drugs, money and the dick that mattia can give you." Roshaun spoke loudly, and put his hands on my chest. "you're starting to become oliver."

My body was pushed to the side and i saw mattia push roshaun to the wall again. He chucked the gun and threw it to the side.

and mattia switched.

"say that to him again and i fucking kill you like i killed alejandro."

(wait why he kinda pop off)

Roshaun gulped, and aloe tried to push mattia away. "get off of him mattia!"

"i'll kill you too." He didn't stutter, and pulled on his own shirt.

Mattia, crossed his arms after pointing to the front door. "go."

the two boys ran out the door, and mattia followed them out. He was muttering to himself when he came back, and his eyes softened.

"are you okay?" He knelt down, and put a hand on my cheek.

"mattia, i could've handled it."

"he hurt you." He helped me up, and sat me up on the counter.

"you don't have to baby me." I huffed.

"well i want to." He stuck his tongue out.

I rolled my eyes and turned around on the counter. I went to the drink tray, and poured some whiskey.

After this whole fiasco, i want to get batshit drunk and go to a party. "aye mattia, wanna go to a party?" I slurred my words after a few glasses.

"sure?" He still seemed kinda tense, and scrolled on his phone.

"aight, let's go." I went upstairs to change, into a pair of sweats and a slightly large shirt.

"now?" Mattia shortly after appeared in the doorway.

"duh!" I took his hand and dragged him to the car.

"do we even have a party to go to?"

"of course! jenna is always throwing parties.!"

Mattia's pov.

Roshaun and Alvaro already made me tense, and riled me up. But it only made it worse when he said the name jenna.

"jenna who?"

"i don't know her last name, but she's chill as fuck. and uH she's got hella drugs and alcohol." He spoke, driving down a familiar street.

And a familiar house.
