Sunshine Girl

Chapter 10

(Isabella's POV)

It's been 5 months since I stormed out of that house. Noah tired to contact me for the first month, but once he got the message I didn't wanna talk he left me alone.

Liz and Enzo came over from time to time, just to check up on me. Olivia and Oliver came over more and we all became good friends.

I started to miss the house and everyone, including Noah, after the 3rd month.

I decided to go over there. I told Liz and she said to tell her when I got there.

So here I was, in front of the house that I hadn't seen in 5 months, and I couldn't move an inch. I was scared and nervous to see him again. I came to see Liz and Enzo yes, but a part of me needed to see Noah.

I noticed the door was open and Liz was in front of me. I smiled and hugged her. She let me in and a bunch of people looked over and waved. I waved back then I saw Elliot. I squealed and ran to him giving him a big hug.

He stumbled back a bit then hugged me with a smile on his face. "I missed you Elliot" I say as he sets me down. "I missed you too bug" he says, I giggle at the name he gave me.

I looked over at the stairs when I saw someone coming down it. It was a girl, she was in socks and a big shirt, it looked like Noah's.

I tilted my head then I saw him. I saw Noah walking down the stairs after this girl with just sweat pants on. When he came down my eyes were a little fogged up by tears. I didn't know what i expected. I mean hes literally Noah Blade. Its really just stupid of me to think he'd wait for someone like me.

He saw me and gasped a little then came to me for a hug.

I backed away and he put his arms down. "I missed you so much! Why are you backing away?" He asks me. "How idiotic of me to think that you still cared about me. I'm just too naive sometimes. Im sorry. " I say and I look around for Liz.

I spot her by the door and I start walking towards her. Noah blocks me off and I look up at him. "You aren't stupid. Where are you going?" He asks. "Home".

"But you just got here, don't you want breakfast?" He questions as he looks down at me. "Why don't you ask your girlfriend? I'm sure she'll love it" I say sarcastically as tears go down my face.

Why am I reacting like this? I barely even know him. Right?

He can do what he wants, it's not like we were ever together. I just don't get why it hurts so much to see.

I push past him and walk to Liz.

"Can we please go. It was a bad idea coming here" I say and she nods walking out to the car ahead of me.

I walk past Noah, he looks at the girl before looking at me again. "Bella, please listen to me."

I turn to him, wiping my tears away. I look dumb right now.

"Bella, that's not my girlfriend," he points to the girl. She stands there with a worried look on her face.

"Then who is she?"

"That's my sister, bella." I look at the girl and then him. What? His sister? He never said he had a sister. Did he?

"She flew in last night and her luggage was held back on accident so I gave her my shirt because no one else was awake to give her clothes," he explains.

"You never said you had a sister," I say, tilting my head as I look at them.

"I forgot to mention it because I'm not that fond of her. She's only here because she has to be." He glares at her and she rolls her eyes at him.

"I feel like a complete idiot right now." I walk out of the house. I can see Liz standing by the car and I walk to her.

"I should've told you that she was here," Liz scratches the back of her neck.

"No, I don't think you would've known I was gonna react like that. Hell, I didn't even realize I was gonna react like that."

"Bella, I know you have been thinking about him. It's so obvious you care about him. Every time I mentioned him when we hung out after you left that day I saw it in your eyes. You might deny it but I know, you care about him a lot. You think about him a lot. I know you don't know him well and you both need to work on that a lot. There are a lot of things you need to know before getting in deeper with him," Liz explains. She pushes my hair behind my ear and kisses my forehead.

She's done that a lot since we started to hang out after I left. She takes care of me when I regress, but I can't help but feel like someone else is meant to care for me.

Someone like Noah.

"Bella? Can we please have a chat over breakfast? I think Liz is right. There are things you need to know about me," I hear Noah's voice from behind me.

I turn to look at him. Maybe I can get some much needed information on him.

"Okay."

~Time skip :p~

I watch Noah as he cuts up the pancakes into bite sized pieces for me. "Noah, you know you don't gotta do that for me right?"

"I dont want you to choke or anything," He looks up and me and smiles. That dang smile.

"So, this conversation is much needed. Uhh where do I start?" He asks himself as he pushes my fork with a piece of pancake on it to my mouth. I open my mouth and happily take the food.

"So as you know, I own a company. A very large company. Well that's just the cover up for what I really do," he starts. I tilt my head in confusion.

"No easy way to say this, but I'm a mafia don. My father was before me but he died and it went to me."

I stay still for a moment to take this in.

He's a what?

Maybe I heard that incorrectly?

"Did I hear that incorrectly? Or did you just say you are a mafia don?" I ask.

"You heard me right."

Oh fuck

Oh fuck

"I know this is a lot of information to take in. You can ask as many questions as you want. I also want to let you know that you can leave at any time. It hurts to see you go, but I want whatever is best for you." He looks nervous as he watches me. More like studies me.

"Do you kill people?" I ask, he looks taken back at the question.

"Well uh, yes. I don't kill good people, only bad ones. And I'd never hurt you. Ever."

He kills people.

Holy shit.

"Is Liz apart of this?"

"They all are. Everyone you have met here. We all are apart of it."

I get up and open the door. I can see Liz and Enzo on the couch. A lot of others gathered there too.

I can hear Noah walk out behind me.

"Why didn't you tell me?" I ask Liz, my tone wasn't angry or sad. I just wanted to know why this big secret was kept from me.

I mean I get it, but why lie to me for so long.

"Because Noah told us not to. We can't tell this to just anyone. It's not safe," Liz answers. I nod. I understand.

It's dangerous for me to know. It's dangerous for me to be here too, and still I want to be here with them. I want to be with Noah.

I turn and look at Noah.

"Okay," I say to him.

"Okay?" He asks, confused.

"Okay, I'll move in."
