Siren song

Abbacchio violently punched his new teammate multiple times, until the 'victim' fell on the ground, bleeding from his nose and mouth

"What the FUCK is wrong with you? You know this will cause you trouble right?" Formaggio angrily yelled while trying to stop the nosebleed by putting a hand on his nose

". You understood me?"

"Yeah yeah. Damn, i thought she was Giovanna's girl, but you're acting WAY too protective, or should i say possessive?" The short haired said, but only received another punch from the guard

"That's none of your business. Your only job here is to surveil her which means you make sure that she is safe and no one enters that room without her or the emperor's permission. Thus, you can't enter there to check her out. We clear?" Abbacchio continued his scolding with a dead cold glare, clearly showing his dislike towards the teammate's action and behaviour

"Yeah we clear" Formaggio muttered while slowly standing up and going back to his position as Leone closed the door to your room without changing his facial expression

You woke up from your deep slumber with a slight hangover

"Weird, i still haven't puked the hell out of me" you thought as you stood up from the bed. Since you made a mayhem in order to find a solar charger, you decided to immediately start charging your phone since it was already morning. You attached the tool to your device and put it on the windowsill to make the whole thing work.

"This room is a big mess, i need to call some servants"

You went to the door and knocked in hopes to meet Guido instead of Leone, but you weren't that lucky

"What?" The long haired guard roughly said

"Oh my Gods, is that her? She's cute!" a guy you didn't know said after turning your head towards you. After a few seconds, you recognized his face: he was one of the assassins

"And you would be?" You asked and right after your words the guy tried to stretch his hand to you, but any further move was denied as Abbacchio has slapped away his hand

"He's Formaggio and he won't be here for long, so don't bother getting to know him" Leone roughly said, slightly upsetting you. Was he acting like this to do you wrong or he was just a mean man?

"Well, nice to meet you Formaggio. Can someone call a servant to clean the room please?" You asked, to what Abbacchio simply looked at the other guard, implying that the newbie needed to do that

"Will do beauty~" Formaggio said and left, leaving you a bit stunned and Leone a bit mad

"Did you have a good sleep?" Abbacchio suddenly asked you with a way softer gaze

"Yeah, thank you. And you?" You stuttered, not really knowing what to say. You had that feeling of when you say 'you too' when a waiter tells you to enjoy your lunch, aka you wanted to go under the ground and leave only when your embarrassement would go away.

"I haven't slept, i was guarding you" he sadly said and turned away from you

"How much sleep do you get? Last time Guido and Narancia were exhausted"

"Well, we actually have turns so that some people work while the others relax. But Giorno doesn't really trust anyone but the èlite guards you know, so we get to work more. But that's better, we get more money and we're of an incredibly high status in the empire. Plus, apart from the rest time, it's not that something bad happens often. People are content with who is in power and no one is so bold to attack us, so we also rest while guarding.... Oh wait, nevermind. I shouldn't have told you that" he told you, muttering the last part

"What the fuck Leone, shut your fucking mouth up" he thought to himself

"Hahaha, don't worry. I'm glad to hear that you get to rest more than i thought! So, can you tell me more about the assassin? Why are they here?"

"Maybe it's time to wake up Y/N. Why do you think they're here? Giorno left for the war and, together with his army, some guards left with him too. Like Fugo, Bruno and Narancia out of our group. So he needed some more people to guard the place and the city, that's why he called La Squadra crew, which are the assassins. Just don't mind them, they're a bit savage but wouldn't hurt you or they'll regret it hard" he explained, keeping his unfazed aspect, but in reality he was trying everything to keep himself from breaking his facade. He wanted to ask you so many things, starting from whether you actually hated him or not. But he couldn't dare to do it.

"I see. Can i meet them? I want to know who is guarding me, you know, just in case" you asked, a bit afraid of Leone's reaction, but your request was actually reasonable so he couldn't do anything but accept it. You were doing it for you safety, which was one of the most important things for both you and Giorno. And also Leone

"Alright, let's go then. You already met Formaggio" he said as he started moving towards your old room, with you following him.

✧ ✯ ✧ ✯

"This is Illuso, he's the closes friend of Formaggio. His job is to guard the entrance together with Melone. Stay away from the last one, he's a nasty man" Leone said as you two arrived to the entrance of the mansion, when the other two guards were.

"Oh hi Leone and... You must be Y/N" the man from the left, Illuso, said with a small, almost invisible, smirk.

"Woah you're beautiful Y/N, i can see why the emperor liked you" the guy in the right now talked, but Abbacchio simply went ahead, clearing the path for you so the other two men wouldn't bother you anymore. You simply waved to them, trying to show a little of your manners, and followed your now personal guard.

The two of you reached the garden, one of Giorno's favourite places. There you saw a lot of servants working, controlled by other two men

"These two there are Ghiaccio, with the blue hair, and Pesci" Abbacchio said as the guards waved to you from afar and you returned the salute.

"I don't know if you will manage to see the other two, since they have to patrol the city together with Guido and some other guards. I don't know if they're resting or actually doing something, but i'm thankful that we're living in such calm times when we can be able to sit for a while and just rest instead of running after thieves and other criminals" you guard softly said, finally showing a small smile on his face. The he turned to you and continued his speech

"Just know that one is blond with blue eyes and the other has white hair and unique eyes: black sclera and red iris. These two usually work together"

"I see, thank you so much for telling me and showing me!" You happily said, very tempted to hug the man but you contained the temptation in yourself. You felt as it wasn't the best idea to do that, at all...

On your way back to the mansion, the silence was broken again

"Do you hate me?" Leone asked you without facing you though. His head was looking straight at the path

"I don't know, and you?" You 'joked', while actually wanting to hear the truth. Since you didn't succeed when you were drunk, maybe he'll answer now that you're sober!

"Haha" he chuckled "no, i don't hate you" with these words you felt your heartbeat getting faster with each second

"What? Really? Then why did you treat me like that?"

"Because i was suspecting you, i still am. But i'm not hating you" he light-heartedly answered

"I gave up, i can't keep going like this. I want to get to know her and being rude wouldn't lead me anywhere. I don't want to distance me from her anymore, i want to get closer and closer"
