My 5 Older Mafia Brothers

Part 3

I made myself a piece of toast and ate it at the table. Tyler came and joined me after a while "How was your sleep sis?" he asked. 

"Yeah good thanks". 

Tyler's sweet and makes me feel more comfortable, I just wish I could feel closer to all of them soon since I missed out on so many years, I feel like a stranger. 

As I was finishing my breakfast, Reid and Kai had sparked an argument, Tyler watched on carefully but silently. They exchanged some pretty colourful language then Reid threw the first punch, it only riled Kai up more, his eyes darkened and being honest I was afraid. Kai returned the punch before they both just fired punches non stop at each other. 

"Enough" of course it was Noah, his tone was so forceful yet calm. Both Kai and Reid stopped, "Cool off, the both of you" He instructed them. 

Then he looked at my horrified face and gave Tyler a knowing look then left. "Hey everything's okay, trust me, they fight over the dumbest of things, like the other day it was the remote" Tyler placed his hand on my shoulder reassuringly, chuckling at the end. He continued "Go get ready and meet me out front in 10 for the shopping trip". 

I nodded "okay".

I waited outside for Tyler, and as he said he would, he came out right on time. We took a different car this time but equally as fancy.

As we were shopping, he chucked nearly everything in sight and requested I tried them all on. I felt really special but spoiled, mum was very cautious when we shopped and rightfully so considering that he could use absolutely any source to find us and keeping under the radar was the solution. 

As I tried on the dozens of outfits in the change room. Tyler's phone started ringing, he informed that he was going outside for a while but would be back in 5. I replied then continued trying on my numerous amounts of clothes. I grab the purple dress that I had picked out for myself but mistakingly grabbed the wrong size. I stepped embarrassingly out of my change room and tried to grab the lady's attention as quickly as possible, so I didn't have to stay in this too tight-fitting dress at the risk of breaking it. 

Finally, the lady of the shop approached me, "hey darl, would you like any help or another size?" she sweetly asked, however, I could hear the chatters of the teenage girls in front of me. 

I know that it was blatantly obvious I grabbed a size too small but their high pitched giggles made me feel even more self-conscious. 

"So what size?" the lady said again. 

But before I could answer the mean girls in front of me chimed in, "I wouldn't even blame it on the size, it's obviously just not for her weight category, she would just never pull it off" they giggled. 

The lady noticed my discomfort at the snarky comment, "I think this isn't the store for you girls, learn some respect before you come back" she glared at them. I felt comforted that she stood up for me, I would've but Tyler was out the front and I have to be on the down-low. 

Soon he appeared "would you like me to walk you out myself" his voice was cold as were his eyes, even the lady stiffened. 

The girls just froze, "I won't repeat myself, get the hell out" he growled. They left not waiting another second. 

Bitches I could've knocked you right out then and there if he wasn't here!

"Are you okay sis?" he asked gently. 

"Yes, I think I'm done for today" I smiled. The lady smiled at us both then handed me the same dress in a bigger size. 

"I think you'll look beautiful" she reassures me and insisted I buy it. 

"Hey so I just got a call from Kai, and Reid is really not himself and more so then usual, Kai thinks that if you come to the house, you could calm him down because we know that he will change his attitude since... he wouldn't take his anger out on you but he would us and Kai needs him to calm the fuck down before Noah comes back from his meeting, if you aren't comfortable it's completely okay." Tyler informed me. 

"Uh I don't think Reid likes me much" I whisper embarrassed. 

Tyler looks baffled, "no-no he loves you so much, he's just very cold and doesn't know how to express his emotions." Tyler explained. 

"Well if you think it'll help then of course" I replied assuringly to the odd propsal.

Tyler smiled.

We drove home in silence, comfortable silence. "If he scares you, just leave or call me" Tyler whispered in my ear before entering the house.

Scared? How angry is he and what about?

Hi everyone, I know that it's not so super different from a lot of similar stories out there but I'm just trying to develop my characters for my plot. It definitely starts to form in the next few chapters and it's an unexpecting plot, to say the least!
