"That's your third cup of coffee, bug."
I scowled at Enzo as I walked back into the training room. It was 10 am. I was tired.
Leo and the guys woke up early to train, in the process, insisting that I also wake up. I put up a fight, but the thought of a sweaty, shirtless Leo was too good to resist. So I agreed.
To watch.
Ha, me? Training? No. Exercise is my number one enemy.
I'm sitting on the bench they have in the training room, sipping my coffee. The room was quite big and was in the basement. Leo explained to me how they converted it because it is naturally cooler and it was a big room. On one side, there are a lot, and I mean a lot of weights. There's running machines and rowing machines as well. On the other side are punching bags lined up hanging from the wall next to a boxing ring, sparring area thingy
I don't know what it's called, I zoned out when Theo explained it to me.
anyway
I brought my attention back to Leo who was currently sparring with Killian in the ring. Both were covered in sweat. They had both managed to get a few punches in and it was obvious that they were getting tired. I looked to my left when I felt someone sit down beside me. Enzo was staring at Killian, a small hint of a blush on his face.
wait, does Enzo like Killian? - is Enzo-
I gasped very loudly, finally coming to a realisation. My noise made everyone look in my direction. Leo was distracted for a split second and Killian managed to sweep his legs from under him and he landed flat on his back. I winced a little, but relaxed when I saw that he was fine.

I laughed sheepishly. "Sorry"
I turned back at the man beside me, who was currently fiddling with his fingers.
"Right." I said, grabbing Enzo's hand, leading him out of the room, calling out to Leo on the way not to worry.
~~~
"So- um- what did you want to talk about?" Enzo asked gently, avoiding eye contact.
We were currently in the library and he was sitting on the couch opposite me, playing with the necklace around his neck this time.
"Are you gay?" I asked, slapping my hands over my mouth the second I said it.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to be so direct! But don't think that it's a bad thing, I love you and you're my best friend, I would never think anything different of you but I-"
"Ria!" Enzo interrupted my rambling. "Sorry, you were spiralling." He chuckled. "But yes, I am gay." He smiled gently. "That doesn't change anything, does it?"
I stared at him in shock. "Of course not! Why on earth would it change anything? You're still my bestie, Enzo, you always were and always will be! Only now, we can talk about hot guys together!" I grinned.
He sighed a breath of relief and gave me a huge grin. "Thank you Aria, you're the first person I've told." he admitted.
"Well, I'm honored." I smiled, leaning over to give him a hug. He hugged me in return and after a few minutes I pulled away, a smirk on my face.
"So, Killian, huh?"
He hid his face in his hands. "Yeah, he's just so, perfect."
"Awwwww. I'm so happy for you!" I squealed.
"I don't know what to do, Aria, I know he had a terrible break up with his last boyfriend, I don't want to get hurt and then have to see him every day, it would break me."

"But what if you don't get hurt? What if he's the one for you?"
"I just don't know if I can ruin our friendship like that or if he feels the same way."
"I understand, I'm here whenever if you need any advice, or just a hug." I smiled.
"Aria?"
I hummed in response, looking up at Enzo.
"Do you- do you think that the others will think any differently of me?"
"Of course not, Enzo. I've only known everyone for a few weeks, but I know that they all love you like a brother, and I do too. there's nothing 'different' about you Enzo. You're you. And we all love you. When you're ready to tell them, I'm here by your side." I smiled, pulling him into another hug.
"Thank you, Ria, you're a blessing. A fucking blessing to Leo and to us." He smiled, his eyes glistening with tears, threatening to escape.
"Now come on, let's get back to our very attractive, very shirtless men." I winked.
~~~
"Wooooo! Go Leo!"
After the whole Killian beat Leo occurence, Leo has now decided that he needs to prove to everyone that he is 'better' than Killian. I mean, I'm a little biased, of course I believe that Leo is the best.
My very handsome boyfriend turned towards me, flashing me a gorgeous smile.
My boyfriend is so hot.
He helped Killian up off the floor and they both left the ring. Leo walked towards me, a small smirk on his face.
"I beat him." He grinned, wrapping an arm around my waist
"yes, you did." I giggled, leaning up to place a quick kiss on his lips. I only kissed him for a few seconds before I pulled away and wiggled out of his grip.
"Bambina, come back, I'm very tired." He whined, following me out of the basement like a small child.
"Go and shower, Leo. I'm going to make everyone lunch."
He grumbled something under his breath and went up the stairs towards our room to shower. All of the guys also went up to shower, except Enzo, who stayed with me.
"What are you making, bug?"
I turned towards him, frying pan in hand. "We, are making a ginormous lasagne." I grinned "There are a lot of people in this house and we should make them all lunch."
"Ria, that's why we have cooks."
"oh. Still, I want to make a good first impression." I explained. "Now, let's get chopping, I hope you're good with a knife."
He grinned. "I am excellent with a knife."
~~~
An hour later, Enzo and I, as well as with the help of two of the cooks, had made a dozen lasagnes. I had just put them into the oven when Leo came walking into the kitchen, followed by the other guys. I walked into his open arms.
He smells so good.
"I made lasagne!" I grinned.
"So I heard, amore mio, when will it be ready?"
"About 30 minutes I guess."
"Great! That gives us enough time to introduce you to the other caporegimes." he smiled, pecking my forehead and walking out of the room, calling for me to follow him.
Oh fudge sticks.
This is gonna be fun.
~~~
