Once they all reached home, Skye was quick to excuse herself from her brothers.
Alex and James tried to go with her but she told them she wanted to be alone which slightly concerned them "she's probably going to see Lorenzo" James reassured a worried Alex.
Both boys were now aware Lorenzo and Skye had a bond much to their displeasure.
"I don't like her being on her own" Alex replied wanting to follow her.
As Skye had left, unknown to everyone, Marco was watching her movement carefully and he almost turned and went straight back out to finish the boys responsible off when he saw a slight limp.
Alex and James never caught onto the limp because whilst she was in their presence she forced herself to walk proper but now that they weren't watching her she let her guard down slightly.
"Come on we have homework" James told Alex who reluctantly nodded and they went into Alex's room.
Their rooms were still quite bare but the stuff Leo made them order would soon be here and secretly both boys and Skye were looking forward to it.
They had all agreed that they would organise each others rooms together.
Marco decided to go release some of his anger in the gym. He sent multiple punches to the punch bag but it wasn't as satisfying to see a person cower beneath him.
He couldn't get the image of Skye under the bleachers out of his head. He began hitting harder and more aggressively until he finally snapped.
"Fuck you Skye" he muttered as he left the gym in annoyance and headed back up to the main floor and then up to her room.
He knocked on the door.
"Leave me alone Alex" he heard her call. It wasn't that she didn't want Alex around. She desperately wanted him but she didn't want him to worry. He worried too much about her and it broke her everytime she saw him hurt because of her.
"I'm not Alex" Marco said after letting himself in her room.
Skye gulped as she quickly got off the bed. She had been trying to have a nap but with Marco in the room she was scared he would shout at her for even using the bed instead of the floor.
"We need to talk about today" he said bluntly.
"I'm fine, we don't need to talk about it" Skye replied.
"I don't fucking care if you say you're fine. I may not have let the nurse take a look but I know you are probably bruised. You need to tell dad" he snapped.
"It's just bruising. Why do you even care, you quite happily hit Alex and James"
Normally Skye wouldn't dare speak to anyone like that but she couldn't let them find out about the abuse they all suffered and if she was to go to Rafael the truth could come out.
Marco was getting more pissed by the second "I don't care. I couldn't care less about you. Maybe I should have just left you under the bleachers" he snapped.
"Maybe you should have " Skye mumbled a tear fell from her eye.
Marco was annoyed when he realized what she was implying.
"Damn it Skye, I'm not having your death on my conscience. I can't stand you but I don't want you dead. We are going to dad"
"I'm not going to die" she whispered,
"You fucking passed out in my arms. You could have internal bleeding. Once you have told dad you're not my responsibility or my problem so let's go"
"I'm not your responsibility or problem now "
Marco walked closer to her until they were stood next to each other.
"We are going to dad, there will be no more discussion" he ordered.
"Lorenzo" Skye muttered knowing he wouldn't give in.
"What about him" Marco asked.
"I'd rather go to him" she confessed. It wasn't anything personal only she didn't know her father that well unlike Lorenzo.
"You want to go to him,? I don't think that's a good idea" Marco was suprised. He knew Lorenzo would not be happy.
Marco complied though, he didn't want to be responsible any longer so he took her up to Lorenzo's office. He would be home by now but finishing work upstairs.
Marco knocked and waited to be told to come in. When they heard him tell them, both of them entered.
Lorenzo looked at them suspiciously knowing his brother hated them.
"Skye has something to tell you" Marco replied.
"You're making me" she muttered.
"Tell him Skye" Marco practically ordered
Skye didn't reply.
"I found her beaten under the bleachers she ended up passing out" Marco said.
At the end of the day he was doing it for her own good. If she had internal bleeding or something he would never forgive himself for not telling.
He had wanted to take her to their dad as he knew their dad would be more calmer about the whole situation.
"Is this true" Lorenzo asked looking directly at Skye.
Skye lowered her head but nodded not daring to meet her eyes.
"And what did the school nurse say" Lorenzo asked.
"She woke up when I got her there but wouldn't let the nurse check the bruises"
"Who was responsible for this" Lorenzo asked.
"Issac and Joe. I handled them" Marco replied coldy.
"Are they still breathing?" Lorenzo asked switching to Spanish.
"Yeah just about" Marco replied.
"Then you didn't handle them. I will handle them myself"
And that's exactly why Marco didn't want to go to Lorenzo. Lorenzo was beyond pissed.
"Leave us Marco"
His cold tone made Marco shudder slightly.
"Not until you tell me what will happen when I leave" he suprised himself when he said that. He only said it because he glanced at Skye and saw she was terrified.
"That is none of your concern. Leave" Lorenzo ordered.
For some reason Marco wanted to leave but he couldn't.
"Not until you tell me " he repeated.
"Marco I won't ask you again. Leave my office"
Marco nodded "well you know about Skye now I guess" he replied.
He turned and looked over at Skye and roughly took her arm. "See you when you have calmed down " he said and practically dragged her shaking figure out.
"Thank you" she whispered once they left the office. Lorenzos cold demeanor had scared her. She didn't want Marco to leave not knowing what he would do to her.
"Just because I did that doesn't mean I like you. Get out of my sight" Marco snapped.
Skye nodded and quickly left.
She almost tripped when she tried to run down the stairs but an arm reached out and steadied her
"You're so fucking clumsy around stairs" Marco muttered.
"Sorry I didn't mean to" she whispered.
"Whatever. Just leave"
Upstairs Lorenzo was angry. So angry that his sister got hurt. He already had made plans for the boys. At first he wanted to kill them but now he decided he would just torture them instead.
Both their parents worked for Rafael so they essentially worked for him too so he knew exactly who the boys were and they knew exactly who he was.
