Trish was in the shower for about 20 minutes, meanwhile within that time frame, Giorno was reading the book that Trish allowed him to read. Right now he's on the chapter 5 of the book, and that's when the book starts getting a bit kinky and more explicit about sexual intercourse that's happening. Giorno was reading it calmly though he was blushing a bit but no so much, thank god Trish wasn't around to see it. He was sipping his tea till it was gone while he kept reading, eventually making it to chapter 6. The sexual intercourse was still going in that chapter. Then something hit Giorno, he had a thought:
Why would Trish read something like this in the first place anyways? Is there some reason why she had an interest of romance?
That's what Giorno said in his mind, questioning and wondering so much to is WHY...that's the big question that's very important to understand and take in. He really does care about her.
Giorno has enough of reading, he needed to back to his office to do some mafia boss paperwork that needed to be done as soon as possible. So he closed the book, holding it under his arm, he takes his empty teacup and pouring more tea from the teapot into the cup, filling it an inch away from the brim. He took his cup of tea and book upstairs.
Trish came out of the shower, her hair was down. After drying off her hair, she wrapped a towel across her chest tightly so the towel wouldn't fall. As she left the bathroom, she didn't see Giorno walking ahead of her, Giorno stopped himself, it was a very close call for them to bump into each other. Both Trish and Giorno sighed of relief that they prevented a catastrophe. They made eye contact with each other.
"Sorry Trish I almost didn't see you there." Giorno said as he chuckled softly.
"No I'm sorry for not watching where I was going to see you walk." Trish spoke looking up at Giorno.
"Well alright, I accept your apology. It's all good. At least I didn't end up spilling tea on you for you to take another shower again if we actually bumped into each other." Giorno looked down at Trish.
Trish grew a small smile on her face, so sweet and kind and innocent, she tries so hard for it not to be so fake.
"But anyways, I'm going to my office to do some paperwork that I desperately need to finish. Oh and um I'll keep the book with me if that's okay with you. I'm starting to like it." Giorno clearly asking Trish if he could keep the book with him.
Trish just nodded her head as a response, she then she walked passed him to get to her room to change into her night attire.
Giorno watched Trish go into her room then he heads to his office that's three doors down from Trish's bedroom, he began to do paperwork as soon as he sat at his desk.
After Trish was getting dressed as she dries off her body and kept her hair down, she leaves her rooms and she heads downstairs to the kitchen.
She arrived at the kitchen, she made herself a bowl of her favorite sour salad and took a Perrier mineral water from the fridge to drink. She then sat at the kitchen table and started to eat and drink her mineral water.
5 minutes of eating, halfway done with her sour salad and quarter way done with her Perrier, she was enjoying herself. Eating her favorite food and drinking her favorite drink, she started to feel much better about herself.
Then
Something happened
She accidentally elbowed her half a bowl of sour salad off the table, she jumped from the chair, the bowl hits the ground, making a loud glass crashing noise. She was in a panic.
"SHIT!!" She yelled out, quickly picking up the broken bowl pieces.
Giorno jumped up from his desk from hearing Trish yell and the glass breaking sound, as he exited his room he summoned his stand, slowly and cautiously going down the stairs.
Is there an enemy stand that kidnapped Trish?! Whoever is there I'll kill them!
That's what Giorno thought to himself, his stand by his side. He's more worried about Trish than ever.
"Fuck fuck fuck..." Trish mumbled to herself as she gets small cuts in her hands from picking up the broken bowl parts.
Giorno turns to hear Trish mumble, he heads to the kitchen, his eyes went wide to what he's seeing, he's worried about her.
"Trish!! Don't pick up the shards with your bare hands!! You'll get yourself hurt!!" Giorno yelled at Trish as he goes to her.
Trish just dropped the shards.
"S-Sorry...i-it was an accident! I-I..." Trish stutters
"Its okay...just...give me your hands." Giorno said concerned about the cuts that are on her hands.
Trish did exactly that, Giorno kneeled down in front of her, he still had his stand out, his stand then starts healing her wounds. Trish groans in pain a bit from the healing. 10 minutes have passed by, and Trish's wounds are done healing and Giorno's stand went away.
"Trish...when I saw you...I'm getting more worried about you. I feel you pushing away, I know I didn't pay attention to your feelings before...but I'm doing it now, hoping it's not too late for me." Giorno said in a concerned and worried tone, his voice did crack in the middle of that sentence.
Trish looked at him, she slowly has tears coming out of her eyes.
"Giorno...I still feel this heavy guilt in my heart. My dad was right! I'm a mistake that leads her friends to their deaths! Because of me dragging you, Bucciarati, and the others, three of them are fucking dead! I felt so useless when poor innocent Narancia died before our very eyes! Giorno this isn't fair! This isn't fair!" Trish yelled and cried, her voice cracked a lot in that sentence.
Giorno's eyes widened a bit, realizing how much pain she was in, he felt so gullible and stupid to not think of talking with her much sooner about how she's doing and her feelings.
So...this entire time you've been in so much pain just like Fugo and Mista about Narancia's death. But you were more hurt by it...but WHY?
Giorno thought to himself, yet again, the word WHY stood out the most. He got more curious as well as he got more worried and concerned. He then said this to her as he hugged her:
"Trish...listen to me...and listen closely...this was never your fault and you dad is wrong. You're not a mistake. And don't blame yourself for Bruno and Abbacchio's death...as well as Narancia's death. They wanted to protect you...we wanted to protect not only because it's the mission but also our job, and we cared about you. Don't you dare...not even once blame yourself for their actions." Giorno said as he pulled her closer into the hug. Comforting her with his fingers through her pink hair feeling the smoothness and softness of it. "It's going to be okay." Giorno added.
Trish slowly stops crying, she hugs him back.
"Giorno...I wanted to tell you something I've been keeping away from you for a while now." Trish said pulling away from the hug, looking into Giorno's shining turquoise eyes.
"What is it Trish?" Giorno asked, wondering what it is that she has to say. He looks back back into her sparkling green eyes.
Trish leaned in, she kissed his lips softly then pulled away shortly after, "I-I....I love you Giorno Giovanna." Trish confessed.
Giorno's eyes widen
"T-Trish..." Thats all Giorno said before he decided to kiss her back on the lips before pulling away shortly after, "I love you too...Trish Una." Giorno confessed
