K A T A R A

After I hung up with Leo I was left horny and bored.

I wish his family wasn't taken cause then he'd be here right now but noooo, Isaac's uncle just had to take them.

He told me he would call me back around 9pm so that means I have the whole afternoon to myself.

Its only 1pm and I'm bored shitless. Maybe I can get to know some of the people in this house like the guards or something and I don't want to talk to Mauricio because he called me a child and I can't talk to Luca cause apparently he has a thing called friends.

But anywho I was thinking of calling Michi over or maybe Isa because I haven't spent any quality time with them and I miss having someone to lean on and laugh for hours at something and ever since Leo's bumped into my life I haven't hung out with them as much so they probably believe I'm a bad friend.

I want to tell them everything and I know they know I'm keeping secrets from them but they don't ask about it which i'm glad for but it only makes my guilt rise.

Ive never kept a secret from those 2 and all I've been doing is keeping secrets from them. I feel like I'm living a double life that they have no idea about.

I sigh and grab my phone and decide to facetime the 2 of them to invite them over and possibly stay the night, plus Leo never said they couldn't come and he practically forced me here so may as well make the most of it.

I call them and immediately Isa answers and she says, "You have a lot of explaining to do missy, how is it that me, Isa, your best friend/girlfriend finds out you are leaving home for a while and I have no idea of your whereabouts?!"

I sigh and say, "I know I'm sorry I've been a bad friend lately but, I wanted to invite you over so I can spend some time with you and maybe even explain a little bit about why I'm gone."

Of course I'm going to sugarcoat it a whole bunch so she doesn't know exactly what's going but so she doesn't need to worry over me.

Isa gives off such a dominant and confident aura but ever since middle school she's always been protective of me seeing as I've always been little and shy and she would always be by my side.

She gets worried about me a lot even if she tries to hide it but I try not to stress her out a lot or scare her like this because she has abandonment issues and hates when people close to her leave from her.

She sighs and says, "You're not a bad friend Kat you know that, just don't leave like that without telling me it makes me think you're in danger or in trouble."

I say, "I'm sorry I won't do it again but I'm at Leo's house and want to invite you and Michi over and you can sleepover too there is plenty of space!"

She laughs into the phone and say, "Yeah sure what time should I be there?"

I say, "Hmm how about at 3:30?"

She nods and says, "Perfect I was just shopping right now for some new clothes."

I nod and say, "Okay well I'll let you go back to shopping I still need to call Michi."

"Okay bye Kat, tell that ugly fart to make sure to turn the tv off before he leaves because he always leaves it on."

I giggle and say, "Okay bye."

She hangs up and I scroll through my contacts and start to facetime Michi.

He answers after 2 rings and groans and say, "What the fuck do you want I was sleeping?"

I laugh and say, "How rude, I guess I shouldn't invite you over to Leo's mansion for a sleepover."

"MANSION? Psh , hey girl how you been? You said sleepover? I'm on my way."

I roll my eyes and say, "All of a sudden huh."

He nods and says, "Yup and you have lots to explain to me when I get there, I feel like you don't tell me anything anymore."

A small pour goes in my lips and I say, "I know I'm sorry we never keep things from each other but I promise you'll know when you come."

He says, "I better! But what time do you want me to come by?"

"At 3:30."

He replies with, "Alrighty then I'm going to continue napping until then bye Kat."

"By Michi!", I respond back.

He hangs up and I throw my phone to the side and sigh, guess it's time to find some fun stuff to do around here.

I pick up Eli who was calmly resting besides me and leave Beanie who was sleeping on the end of the bed.

I head out the room and walk to the direction of Elisa to see if we have any junk food.

I see Elisa cleaning cleaning off the counters and I say, "Elisa."

She looks at me and asks, "Yes dear?"

I smile and say, "I'm inviting my two best friends over since Leo won't let me leave the house and they will be staying the night and I was wondering if we have any junk food?"

She smiles at me sweetly and says, "Oh guest! I've got lots to clean then! But yes dear we have plenty of sweets, he made sure to have us stock up on them curtesy of you."

A blush coats my cheeks at the thought of him stocking up on snacks and sweets for me.

I look at her and say, "Elisa the house looks great you don't need to clean up for them, and that's very sweet of him to do that for me, where are the snacks located?"

She smiles and says, "You're so sweet but Leo wouldn't appreciate it if the house wasn't kept tidy, and the snack are in the bottom right cabinet."

I smile politely at her and say, "Ignore Leo, he's always grumpy, relax for the day and not if's or buts, If Leo had a problem with it he can talk to me."

She smiles at me with so much adoration and says, "You're too sweet Katara, thank you a lot, my daughter, her husband, and my grandchildren just came into town today too, I'll be forever grateful to you for letting me see my grandchildren."

She leans in for a hug and I say, "Of course Elisa, you deserve to see your family and to just relax."

She says, "Have a great day dear and by the way there is a theatre room with a drink and snack bar you and your friends can dig into dear, I'll be back in the morning to make you 3 breakfast in the morning when I'm back."

I smile sweetly and say, "Thank you so much Elisa, we'll be looking forward to it, now go on and enjoy your family."

She smiles happily and walks off getting ready to leave.

I smile excited to have Isa and Michi come over. I feel like we barely even hang out like we used to and we are practically siblings and this is well needed.

Maybe we can even do a little self care and rant and do face masks and I can beg Michi to let me paint his nails even though he always says I can only do black since it's his favorite color even though it's a shade and not a color.

I go towards the direction of the snack cabinet and open and see many snacks from marshmallows and chocolate to chips and cookies.

I grab like 3 of everything and hold a pile of snacks in my arms and walk upstairs to Leo's room to drop them off in there for when we do our self care since there is a snack bar in the theatre.

I make it to my room and rest it on his dresser. I smile happily and hear Eli walking in from behind me.

I smile and pick him up wanting to hold the little fluff ball and say, "Now me and you are going on an adventure to find the theatre."

I look upstairs first opening the doors that I knew weren't used by anybody. I open the first one which is the door to the right of my room since Leo's room is at the end of the hallways only to find that it was just an empty room.

Maybe Isa and Michi can share this room unless there is another empty room because I know both Isa and Michi move so much in their sleep that one of them is going to end up kicking the other while they are sleeping.

I close the door and walk to the next one only to find a restroom.

I sigh and go to the other side of the hallway passing Mauricio and Luca's rooms and checking the one besides Luca to find another room.

Well at least now I know both Isa and Michi can have their own beds. I would offer to share Leo's bed with them but I don't think Leo will appreciate having so many people on his bed.

I can't wait for him to call me tonight I already miss him and it's only been a couple of hours.

A wave of sadness hits me but then I immediately shake it off knowing he's going to call me later.

I can't be too clingy, we aren't even dating I need to calm down.

My mind travels to when he runs his fingers through my hair and when he leaves me forehead kisses and I can't but get butterflies everytime it happens and I'm pretty sure he doesn't get this feeling when he's with me.

He's been with more experienced and prettier women than me, I'm probably a child in his eyes anyways and not intimidating in the slightest.

I feel a bit self conscious wishing I was so little and that I had even a boost of confidence and could radiate anything but shyness and always cowering away.

I close my eyes and take a deep breath and let a smile grace my face.

Don't think like that, my subconscious reminds me.

I'm amazing just the way I am and I may not be like most girls but I'm the best version of me and I have got to learn to love it even if it's Leo that I want to love me.

I decide to head downstairs to look for the theatre since I already know the last door at the end of the hallways is the laundry room.

I set down Eli so he can walk since my flimsy arms were starting to get tired. As I cascade down the stairs, the front door opens and Luca comes strolling in.

He sees me cascading down the stairs and says, "You look busy, what are you up to?"

I smile excitedly and say, "My friends are coming over for a sleepover! I get to eat snacks with them, watch movies, and do facemasks!"

He chuckles at my childlike excitement and says, "That's nice grintoso, make sure to save some room for me."

He winks at me and I say, "Of course, you can join us if you want to but you probably have plans of your own."

He says, "I'm always up to hanging out with you, no one can resist your adorable puppy dog eyes but, since Leo is gone that leaves me in charge of the rest of the mafia that is still here and someone has to make sure that the drugs get where they are supposed to and that we get money."

A small pout graces my face but nonetheless I say, "I understand, have fun living your boring mafia life, I'll think about you though when I'm relaxing and you have to do work."

He smirks and says, "I knew you think about me, but I understand, who wouldn't be able to not think about such a sexy god-

I shove his shoulder and say, "Cocky bastard."

He laughs and says, "Don't worry baby, I think about you too."

My face turns slightly red and I get flustered ted and say, "G-go do your mafia work!"

He walks away laughing and says, "Have fun with your friends grintoso, leave a good word in about me, sì?"

I laugh but nod and watch his figure reatreat upstairs.

I roll my eyes and walk towards the rooms downstairs and think about how much of a cheeky bastard Luca is.

I pass the kitchen and see a door and open it to find the theatre room.

I squeal happily and do a little happy dance excited I finally found the room.

"Oh lord who taught you how to dance?"

I scream not expecting to hear someone and see Mauricio leaning against the kitchen doorway with a
glass of what I believe is water in his hand as he stares at me in disgust.

My face turns red immediately and I say, "You weren't supposed to see that!"

He says, "Oh man did I wish I recorded that, I hope you don't actually dance like that because if you do, you need some serious dance lessons."

I groan and lie and say, "Duh of course I don't dance
like that, I was just.....messing around obviously."

He stares at suspiciously and probably knowing I'm
lying but changes the subject and says, "Whatever, just hope I don't catch you dancing like that's again because I will record and laugh at it till the day I die."

I stick my tongue out at him and watch his figure retreat the kitchen and I put the middle finger to his back.

Once he's out of sight I exit the movie room deciding that we should all agree on a movie when they come.

I go towards the front doors and go out and let the guards know that my friends will be coming over and to let them in.

After I let them know and made sure to tell them their names, the type of car they'll be driving, and showing them all a picture I go back inside.

I check the time on my phone and see it's 2:45 and decide to go upstairs and finish reading the book that I had started reading when I was at home and cuddling with Leo.

I walk upstairs and to my room but by the time I got up there my mood changed and I felt tired all of a sudden.

I think I had a little too much energy from my overexcitement of Michi and Isa coming over.

I get random surges of energy when I'm excited and tend to get tired after it wears off. Maybe a little nap won't hurt.

I have 40 minutes and that should be enough time.

I plop onto Leo's bed and let myself sink into the bed and let the sleep welcome me but not before thinking of how much fun it'll be when they come and how happy I'll be when Leo calls me
tonight.

Sooo I'm on spring break but I don't if you guys are but today I watched the new Godzilla vs King Kong and it was so amazing, a literal cinematic masterpiece 🤌🏽.

Who's your celebrity crush?😽
