Flash

Our week in Hawaii was up and I could tell Ace enjoyed it a lot.
We were on the plane back home but little did Ace know I had one last
surprise waiting for him at home.
"Do you know how hard it was to hide that tattoo from you?" I grinned
evilly. "No?" He mumbled, flicking through his phone. I took out my phone
and got a picture of him. He gave me a glare. "Oh come on, get in one with
me?" I pleaded. I had very little photos of me and Ace together because he
doesn't like to take photo's. Not to mention he's probably the most wanted
man in the world but what I can I do about it?.
"I was actually wondering, how do you stop the cops from arresting you?" I
asked curiously as I scrolled through my phone. "I pay them, plus it's not
like they can just storm in and take me, I'm the Mafia king, I have people
who work in the police force from my mafia" he explained staring out the
window of the airplane.
"Yeah that's true" I mumbled, resting my head on his shoulder.
"I won't be home for a few day's when we get back" he warned me
suddenly. "What are you going to do?" I replied, a crease appearing
between my eyebrows due to my confusion. "I'm going to kill my father,
but I have travel for a bit before I reach him" he mumbled, his head now
resting against mine. "I'll be leaving you at the airport with Ice and he will
bring you home with multiple guards" Ace informed me. "You have to call
me at least once everyday until I get back and text me regularly with
updates" he demanded.
"I'm just hoping Ice doesn't do anything stupid while I'm home" I smiled,
closing my eyes.
Not long after I fell asleep.
I woke up to Ace tapping my shoulder and telling me that we had landed.
He took our suitcases and we entered the airport after going through
security. Ace's tan had gotten darker due to the constant sun in Hawaii and
my hair had lightened slightly. Ace's darker tan just made his eyes more
noticeable than before. Ace's chain around his neck had left the skin under
it a lighter shade of colour since he refused to take it off.
As we were walking through the airport, I spotted Ice standing at an
escalator. Not long after he spotted me and Ace and I've never saw a
happier expression on his face. "Ace and Sofia" he cheered running up to us
and instantly jumping into my arms. "What happened to you hating Sofia?"
Ace glared at him. "She grew on me" he grinned, hugging me tighter than
before.
There was no romance or tension between me and Ice, we were simply best
friends now. I've started seeing the brighter side to Ice and the undying
loyalty he has for his friends. Secretly Ice was a good person, even though
he's done some messed up things. I've forgiven him for everything before,
mainly because I know now that he was afraid I was going to destroy Ace.
"I have to go on another fucking plane; Sofia be careful" Ace warned me
before grabbing my face gently and kissing me. "And you, protect her with
your life if anything happens, that's a demand" Ace ordered while pointing
at Ice. "It's rude to point" I uttered in a cheeky tone as Ace walked away
from us.
"Okay now that he's gone, I did a bad thing" he clenched his teeth while he
stared at me with widened eyes. "Oh no, what did you do?" I spoke with a
bland tone as I shook my head. "You'll see once we get home" ice
mumbled, leading me out of the airport.
We hopped in a taxi and eventually reached home.
Ice carried in my suitcase and as I entered the house, Ice yelled and I saw
the tiniest husky puppy run up to Ice. My jaw instantly dropped at the sight
of the puppy. "Ace is going to kill you" I laughed as I petted the small
puppy. It was just a massive ball of moving fluff. "His name is Flash" Ice
stated proudly as he lifted the puppy into his arms.
"Flash's eyes are a light blue, almost like the colour of Ice, get it" I
mumbled with a grin. "That was so bad, please never say that again" Ice
glared at me and I couldn't help but laugh. "Ice where have you-" I heard a
familiar voice say. "DANTE" I shrieked, running up the stairs and into his
arms. "Sofia" he uttered, hugging me tightly.
"How are you? How have you been?" I questioned him eagerly, wanting to
know the answers. "I've been good but running things back at the base has
been challenging, I can't lie. I don't know how Ace does it" he shrugged.
"Oh yeah, speaking of Ace, you guys have a few days to set up for your
guys night since he's gone to kill his father" I rambled carelessly while
walking down the stairs.
I glanced back at Ice and Dante who just stared at eachother with widened
eyes. "Oh shit, did he not tell you guys?" I muttered, wanting to punch
myself. "No he didn't but his father deserves it so I don't blame him" Ice
grumbled while petting his puppy.
Flash barked happily and tried to bite Ice. "Ah you little shit" Ice growled at
Flash who had rolled onto his back with his four paws in the air and tongue
hanging out of his mouth.
"Well I'm happy that mother fucker is getting what he deserves. He killed
my girlfriend" Dante shook his head, not wanting to remember that night.
"I have a question" I muttered suddenly to Dante who stood on the end of
the stairs. "Yeah?" He replied with a curious tone. "How could you tell me
you loved me, if the girl you actually loved died not long before?" I asked,
hoping that my question didn't sound too insensitive.
"Well I guess I never really loved her but that didn't mean that she deserved
to die or that I'm not sad that she died" Dante spoke with a hint of sadness
in his voice. "Oh okay" I nodded. That made sense to me.
