Riley's pov

"Matteo!" I yelled as i watched jake kill me in this stupid video game he brough from home.

Matteo ran in with a gun and glared at me when he saw what we were doing .

"I was busy"

"He's cheating"

"I might be your daddy but im not your dad"

"Well that just scrambles my eggs" jake got up from the floor.

"Nooo i wanna beat you" i whined .

"I have a job so dueces" he gave me the finger and walked out .

"I will never understand you people" matteo huffed and plopped down on the couch.

I threw the stupid controller and climbed onto matteo's lap .

"You smell like eggroll" i scrunched my nose up in disgust .

"That happens when you're stuck in the office"

"Your office has a shower matteo you are to cute to be smelling like this"

"I knew it you were only in it for my looks"

"Yeah obviously" i rolled my eyes and he put my head under his armpit .

I screamed and he let of my head and i took a deep breath .

"If that's what hell smells like lord forgive me" i looked up to the ceiling.

"You're being dramatic"

"Well you love me so deal with it"

He pushed me off his lap and got up .

Ava walked in, sat down her colouring book and crayons and just started colouring .

"Hey ava"

"Yo"

"Yo?"

"Sup?"

"You've been spending time with jake haven't you" matteo narrowed his eyes .

"I like jake" ava smiled .

"Ofcourse you do"

Ava smelt the air and turned to her dad and her nose scrunched up the same way mine did .

"Im taking my crayons and leaving" she got back and left.

"Did my daughter just?"

"She's sassy" i chuckled.

"It's your brother's fault i want my innocent daughter back!"

"Oh calm your sack" i rolled my eyes and shoved past him .

"Ava barely spoke to anyone but me"

"Progress don't you think?"

"Yeah but she's mine"

"She's only 6 matteo she's not gonna get away that fast just calm down"

"Fine" he grumbled and was about to come and kiss me .

"No you smell"

"Seriously?"

"Go shower"

"Only if you join me"

"Matteo go shower"

He threw me over his shoulder and walked up the stairs.

"Im not showering with you!"

"Yes you are"

I pounded on his back and he let out a chuckle.

"It's sweet that you think that would hurt me"

"Jackass"

He smacked my butt and let out another chuckle.

"Matteo i think something's wrong with my stomach"

He quickly sat me down and i bolted to my room.

"Riley!" He bellowed and chased after me.

"Bye sucker!" I laughed as i ran into my room and locked it .

"Riley open the door!"

"No go shower stinky!" I yelled back .

I heard him huff and stomp off . I turned around and screamed when i saw a decapitated hand on my bed .

I heard banging on my door and i quickly opened it .

Jake came in and burst out laughing.

"What the fuck is so funny?"

"It's not real" he picked up the hand and i saw blood get on my carpet.

"It looks real though" he looked at it and threw it across the room.

"Im gonna get a ghost!" He yelled rubbing the blood off on my bed covers.

I picked up a lamp and threw it at his direction but the dingus ducked .

"What the fuck riley?"

"You're making it worse you shithead"

"I didn't know it was real!"

"Well no shit sherlock this is matteo's house of course it's real!"

Matte came in wearing a towel around his waist .

"Why are you people screaming?"

"Someone left a hand on my bed"

He looked at my bloody bed and the hand laying on the floor .

"Some idiot is probably sending a message"

"How are you not freaked out?"

"Im a mobster this is schmuck bait"

"Of course it is" jake walked out leaving matteo and i staring at the bloody hand .

"I think im gonna be sick" i ran to the toilet and threw up .

"Hey you okay?" He came in and rubbed my back .

"No not really"

I stood back up , flushed the toilet and brushed my teeth .

"Im gonna find out who this is"

"I don't care anymore it's like i can't be left in peace anymore"

"I know and im sorry"

"It's whatever , i just have to grow up and put a wall up"

"That's not healthy amore"

"Nope how about i bottle all my feelings up and we never talk about it sound good?"

He sighed and pulled me into his arms .

"Why do they wanna bother me?"

"It's the mafia i will always have a target on my back"

"Awesome" i walked out of the bathroom and headed downstairs.

"Riley can you talk to me please?"

"Not now im hungry"

I went into the kitchen and took out a jar of pickles .

"Want me to make you something?" Twan came in holding a bowl of mayo .

"Can i have that?"

"Sure?" He handed me the bowl and i dipped my pickle into the mayo .

"Stressed?"

"Found a hand in my room"

"A hand? Well that's easy"

"Easy?"

"Usually it's a head or even the torso"

"Im guessing you've seen alot"

"Pretty much"

"How do you handle this life?"

"I just stay to myself"

I groaned and layed my head on the table .

"You can't do that cause you're sleeping with the boss man"

"Yeah i should stop seeing matteo"

"What? Nooo i didn't say that"

"Thanks twan"

"No he's gonna kill me" he yelled and i left the kitchen .
