Your Favourite Crime

Damien

"Eli, Bud, Ruth, Biggie and Pinky."

"You all are our security?" I ask

"Yes, but we're undercover. We won't actually be with you, we'll be disguised as regulars. We'll protect you from afar," Biggie explains

He's the same height and size as me. He has black hair and brown eyes and evident tattoos that lead from his neck down and all around his arms.

"My son, Ethan, he goes out on his own. Wherever he goes, you go," I order and he nods

He's the most experienced. I can tell.

"Damien, have you seen- Bix?" I turn around and see Adriana

"Adriana?" Biggie looks at Adriana, puzzled

"Sergeant Bixbe Biggie Gurkin. It has been a minute," Adriana says with shock, standing beside me.

"You two know each other?" I ask, defensively. I wrap my arm around Adriana and pull her into me.

"Yeah. Biggie was one of the other Sergeant. This was my best friend," She tells with a wide smile, "How are your girls? How's the wife?"

"My wife is good. She's pregnant, with a boy! I'm still out numbered but maybe I'll have a soldier instead of two gymnast," Biggie tells

"Congratulations. It's good to see you. Now you're our security, small world," She comments

"It is," Biggie nods

"What was it you needed?" I ask my girlfriend, softly.

"Oh... Flavia was asking where you put her snow white dress," she asks

"I put it in her bag. Ask my mom," I say before kissing her forehead. She walks off and I turn back towards the guards.

"She knows nothing. Keep it that way. All she knows is that you guys are from some random company. She knows nothing about my cousins," I tell them

They all nod, before Biggie says, "I don't want to oppose on your relationship, but Adriana is very understanding and open. She'll feel better if you tell her sooner then later."

"Thank you. I'll keep that in mind," I nod. I'd probably dislike him if he wasn't married and didn't have kids. But I know the look of a man who'd do anything for his kids and he had that look.

"The rest of you will follow me or my girlfriend," I order, "My kids biological mother is nuts and I think she might have connections out here. I don't trust her."

"Don't worry, Mr. Carvelli. You can trust my team to keep you safe," Biggie assures and I nod.

"King Daddy!"

"Hi, Princess. You look absolutely beautiful, I love your little braid," I pick my daughter up as she comes running into the kitchen

"Thank you. Princess Adriana did it for me. She says I look magical!" Flavia beams

"You do, my love," I kiss her cheek. I put Flavia down before telling her, "There's breakfast outside. See if Ethan or Adriana can go with you. Daddy's got to speak with his friends," I kiss her cheek again before she runs off.

"That one is the princess. I treat her as if she was really one. You should too. Or you'll see just how much anger she can hold."

"Ethan dislikes the beach, because it triggers his body dysmorphia so we don't really go. But if you want to, I can take you."

"I don't really care. It's not my first time in Miami so I won't miss much," Adriana shrugs
