In The Shadows ✔

[79] See, hear, feel

Bart and Manon come back inside and Bart looks at the exhausted Marisol. He walks over to Scorpia and says: "I'm taking the girls with me. Marisol needs a nap too."

Scorpia gets up carefully with Leo against her chest and kisses Bart on his cheek. "Thank you, Bart. It was a lot of fun to have you all here." She leans closer and whispers: "Take Manon out on a date sometime. Outside of the hotel I mean."

He shoots her a shocked look and stammers: "H-how?"

Scorpia winks at him and says: "You get the girls home safely, okay?" She says goodbye to Emilia and Marisol too and Bart helps Marisol up from her chair.

Manon comes up to Scorpia and kisses Leo on his cheek. "He's beautiful Scorpia. And you are beautiful with him. This was a lot of fun. I would love to come back again."

Scorpia looks into Manon's eyes and says: "Tell him you like him, okay? Thanks for being here."

Manon shakes her head and waves at everyone before walking out.

Scorpia asks where Lucas and Enzo are and Ciro points at the back of the couch. Scorpia looks over the edge and sees them both laying there, sleeping. "Awww cuties."

She sits back next to Logan and cuddles Leo. She closes her eyes again and Logan holds Pia in his other arm, to be able to wrap an arm around Scorpia.

Ciro gets up because an older boy asks if he's really that good at math. Matteo is sitting at the table with him, but he's not sure on how to explain it. Ciro looks at the worksheet on the table and explains it calmly. The boys stare at him with a grateful look on their faces and he smiles.

Dino walks out of the room, mumbling something about Violetta and mamma asks if she can hold Leo again. Scorpia gets up immediately and says: "Of course you can mamma. You could have given him his bottle too."

Mamma takes Leo from her and says: "No. You need to do that bottle yourself. That's an important moment for a mother."

Scorpia shakes her arms and looks behind the couch. Lucas is sleeping with his arm around Enzo and she strokes through his hair. She walks into the hallway and comes back in with the stroller.

She looks at Logan and he asks: "Do I need to free my arms?" She nods and Logan gets up to lay Pia down in the stroller. He sits back down and pulls Scorpia on his lap. She rest her head against his shoulder and he wraps his arms around her. He kisses her softly and says: "Ti amo, Bonnie."

Ciro helps the boys with their homework and watches Lucas wake up from the corner of his eye. Lucas rubs his eyes and needs a minute to realize where he is. He strokes Enzo's cheek and gets up. He looks over the back of the couch and sees Logan and Scorpia cuddle.

He walks around the couch and sits down next to them. "Scorpia?"

She opens her eyes and looks at him. "What is it Lucas?"

"I want to hug you too."

She smiles and slides from Logan's lap. "Come on then. I'd love to get a hug from you." Lucas crawls onto her lap and hugs her tightly. She hugs him back just as tight and says: "Still the best hugs in the world." Lucas beams and kisses her.

Logan's phone rings and he walks out of the room to answer it. He comes back in a few minutes later, grinning wide. Scorpia looks at him and he whispers: "I caught two people in the hallway. I'll tell you about it later." He speaks up and says: "That was Lexy. She's home and wants to see the petting zoo and have tea with us. And it gives us a chance to see the renovated apartment. If you want to that is."

Lucas is getting excited at the thought of showing them his room.

Scorpia laughs and says: "Okay. I would like some tea and I would love to see my old room." Lucas looks at her all confused and she says: "Your room used to be my room."
