Quinn's POV

    They knew and all I felt was numbness, Sawyer kept a hold on the hand that was out of the sling and lazily rubbed it with his thumb. Avery kept an eye on Dante and Alessandro in the front and giving both of them death glares when they would look back at us. Somewhere in my mind, I knew I should find the whole thing entertaining but I just couldn't. I rested my head against Sawyer's chest and he put his arm around me gently.

    "You can sleep if you want Quinny," Sawyer murmured in Russian leading Alessandro and Dante to look back at the two of us. I shook my head, I wasn't very tired with the caffeine still in my system and I could wait till we got back.

    We got home again arriving last because Alessandro would take the longer route while the others would take the shorter route home. The three of us got out of the car easily and headed inside ignoring Dante and Alessandro who were behind us. Inside it was a madhouse with Angelo, Cesco, and Remo all running around. I looked to Avery to see what she wanted to do and she headed straight for the stairs and Sawyer and I followed easily.

    "Hold on! Where are you going?" I moved to be a little behind Avery as she turned to look at Remo.

    "Our room."

    "No, you're not! We're all watching movies today!" Cesco began by pouting and then ended with a cheer.

    "No."

    "Avery we either watch movies here or we all watch them in your room." I didn't care what we did as long as it didn't mean I had to talk.

    Avery rolled her eyes and led us to a small couch that the three of us curled up on that got a few cheers and Alessandro said he had to leave for something business-related. I assume that is where Leonardo and Adriano are too with the obvious looks shared between them all. I made a note to myself to ask Avery if she thought I should try to hack into their network to see what they were actually doing with this so-called business.

    The rest of our brothers all bustled about messing with the sound system and snacks and whatever else they found to mess with. Cesco threw two soft blankets at us and got a glare from Avery before she spread them over the three of us. I leaned against Sawyer and he played with the end of one of my braids as we watched the others run around.

    They finally seemed happy with everything and began to look for a movie. Dante came out and gave the three of us sandwiches and told us we needed to eat them. Avery argued but after a while, we all ate them slowly which Dante smirked at and Avery rolled her eyes in response.

    "What movie should we watch?" The three of us didn't care but it looked like we were going to have to decide because apparently, they couldn't make a decision.

    "Just put on some action movie," Avery said and even though I wasn't looking at her I knew she rolled her eyes. None of us wanted to sit around and watch a boring movie. We would much rather be in our room not being bothered by anyone.

    They put on some Avengers movie after arguing for a while. The three of us haven't seen a lot of movies, however, I knew the different characters and storyline of the movie from things I read online. We watched the movie and Avery was the first of the three of us to get bored. She reached out to the table that had an absurd amount of snack foods and grabbed one of the bowls of popcorn. Dante and Remo looked at her curiously but went back to watching the movie. Avery waited to make sure no one was paying attention to her and grabbed a hand of popcorn and aimed it at Cesco who was curled up on the couch.

    She threw the popcorn quickly then, in no time, repeating her action throwing the popcorn at Angelo. They both looked at her shocked and Remo and Dante began laughing. Avery smirked at Sawyer and me and threw more popcorn at Remo and Dante who glared at her while she feigned innocence.
