Chapter 6 - Engaged

Start from the beginning
                                    

"Why do we have to share? You live in a mansion."

"My papà say we have to. But you can have the bed and I'll sleep on the couch," I say and she looks to my very small couch.

"No it's okay, we can share just don't try anything."

"I won't, don't worry about it. How will you tell your boyfriend?"

"I don't even know, he's going to be devastated."

"Mi dispiace," I apologise again.

"It's not your fault. Maybe we just get married and see other people secretly," she suggests.

"Maybe," I say as I think of Damian. I know he's just a fuck buddy but I'll miss him if I can't see him again.

"Well, I better go home and pack a bag," she says and I take her back down to her parents. Before they leave, her papà stops me.

"You better take good care of my daughter," he says threateningly.

"I will, I promise," I say back and smile. They leave as Luca comes down from his room.

"What did I miss? I heard arguing but was scared to come out," he says as he looks between me and my papà. My ma comes out of the longue as I wait for papà to explain.

"Vin is getting married to Alessandra Bianchi to make an alliance between our families," he says and Luca's eyes widen.

"Seriously?" He asks as he looks at me.

"Yeah," I answer sadly.

"Oh. Do you want to go outside for a while?" He asks and I go to the garden with him. "What the fuck!?" He shouts when we are out of earshot.

"I know! I have to marry some random girl and he hit me with his gun when I said no," I say as I gently touch my cheek.

"You're gay!" He whisper yells.

"I know that! What am I supposed to do?"

"I don't know, is she for it?"

"No, she has a boyfriend already. She has to share my room with me which she isn't too happy about but we'll get through it."

"But if you marry her that's for life. There is no getting through it."

"Cazzo," I sigh and sit on a deck chair beside the pool. Luca sits opposite me as Enzo and Matteo come out to see what's going on.

"I can't believe you're getting married," Matteo says. Papà must have told them.

"Why not just kill your pops then you'll be Cappo," Lorenzo says.

"I can't do that," I say as I look up at them.

"Fine, I'll do it for you. You'll always be my Cappo anyways not him," Enzo shrugs.

"Don't kill him, no one would accept me as Cappo if I did that. I'd be killed and Emilio would take over," I say and he nods.

"Run away," he suggests.

"These are terrible ideas, I'll figure something out."

"Come on Vin, we can help," Matteo says.

"Why don't one of you marry her instead?" I ask.

"I would, she hot," Luca says.

"You didn't even meet her."

"I've met her before, and she's very pretty. I'll ask my pops if we can swap places," he says seriously.

"It's worth a try, but if my papà doesn't agree then I'm in trouble."

"We have your back," Matteo says.

"Gio too, but he's busy," Enzo says and I nod.

"Grazie," I say and stand up to go speak with my ma. I find her in the kitchen and she kisses my cheek when she sees me.

"I'm sorry Vin," she says as she turns to cut vegetables for dinner tonight.

"It's okay. I'll find a way out of it," I say and she shakes her head.

"Please don't anger your papà anymore. I hate to see you with bruises," she says as she gently touches my cheek.

"But I can't marry this girl."

"You have to for the family. I married Antonio and we fell in love. I know it's scary, and it seems unfair but it's needed," she explains and I sit on the stool at the counter.

"I can't do this ma," I say as my voice breaks and tears start to well up in my eyes. She stops her cooking and hugs me so my head rests on her shoulder.

"I know it's hard, and I know you think it's unfair but me and your papà just want what's best for you," she says as she strokes my hair.

"But I want to marry someone I love, not this girl."

"This is the end of the conversation Vincent, you have to do as your papà says."

I take a deep breath and stand up so I can leave to go to my room. I fall onto my bed and wince when my stomach hurts in the impact. I roll onto my back and groan, swearing under my breath.

How will I explain to Damian that I'm marrying a woman? Will he stay my fuck buddy? I really hope so.
