I laughed with my sisters and we started talking about Zack, which was mostly me rambling.

When I finally stopped talking, I looked around to see glaring brothers, clenched jaws, clenched fists and two sisters adoring me.

Who cares about their annoyance anyways?

"You look so happy while you're talking about him." Emma said, smiling warmly. I blushed as Olivia nudged me, wiggling her eyebrows.

"Does he kiss good?" Olivia whispered to me, making my face heat up so much, I could be used as a room heater.

Emma smacked her shoulder.
"Stop with the embarrassing questions, Olivia. You need to drop that habit."

"What? Kissing is important. I just asked an innocent question." She shrugged, before turning to me again. "So does he kiss good?"

This time many other people heard her.

"Olivia!" I don't know how many deep voices snapped.

"Although, I don't know you that much and I don't think scolding an older sister on your second meeting is good but stop with those mature questions. She's just a baby." Elonzo said, glaring at her.

If I was the one who asked that question, I'd be grounded till now.

Lol. When am I NOT grounded?

"Okay. He's scary." Olivia said, gulping a little.

"Yeah. He is." I gulped.

"You're grounded." Mason said, glaring at her. Olivia looked at him, shocked.

"I'm too old for that." She whined.

"Oh?" Mason mocked. "Because, as far as I remember, you just got un-grounded last week."

"Whatever." She rolled her eyes. "It's not I'm going to listen to you, little one."

"Get up and sit somewhere else." I heard someone say. I turned my head in their direction.

"Huh?" I asked, scowling at Luciano, who was scowling back.

"Get up and sit somewhere else." He gritted, speaking slowly.

"Don't tell me this is the Aiden of your family." Emma muttered.

"He is." I rolled my eyes.

"What makes you think, I'll do what you tell me to?" I asked, already ready to punch him in the throat.

"Not what. Who." Someone corrected. "I made him think, you will do whatever he tells you to." Elonzo said.

"You are being mean." I whined. Olivia was sulking on the couch beside me, cursing Mason out and complaining why she was still getting grounded by him. Why the truck was he even grounding her?

"Come here." He said, simply, ignoring my whines. I stomped over to him and sat beside him, pouting, a scowl on my face. Peter sat on my other side, so I ignored Elonzo and cuddled up to him.

"This is not going to work." Elonzo muttered.

"I don't care." I said, hugging Peter and completely turning my back to Elonzo. Peter chuckled, after looking behind me.

"You ignoring him is definitely working. Don't believe him." He whispered. I smirked.

"What are your hobbies?" Mason asked, making Aiden perk up and smirk. He was talking to Luciano, but stopped and paid attention to the question.

Peter tensed up. I did too. That means, I'm gonna get scolded if I tell my real hobbies.

Will Mason scold me? Can't say. If Elonzo can already scold his new older sister, I doubt Mason will hold back.

Not to mention, he's scary. Like really scary. Less scarier than Elonzo, but scary enough.

"Singing." I said. "I sing and play soccer."

"Cool." Aiden said, before adding suggestively. "There must be something else."

Elonzo raised his eyebrows at me, looking amused.

I glared at Aiden for some time, before smiling sweetly. Too sweet for it to be real.

"Yeah. Killing some brothers." I said, batting my eyelashes. He raised his eyebrows and smirked.

"Oh?" He said, in a mocking tone. "How many have you killed till now?"

"Well, I would have killed one, but a certain someone doesn't tolerate violence from the Mafia Princess. The Irony." I said, pointing behind me with my thumb, towards Elonzo.

"I bet it's Luciano." Olivia mumbled.

"Yeah. You're right." I said, nodding.

"But now the count raises to two." I said, glaring at Aiden, who had the audacity to try and throw me under the bus. Trucker can't succeed.

"Can I come watch when you kill him?" Emma asked, pointing at Aiden.

"Sure." I shrugged.

With that, they all started talking with each other. Emma, Olivia, Marco and Will were getting to know each other, Luciano and Aiden were planning a party, from what I can guess. That's all they do.

The older twins, Nathan, Peter and Axel, were talking among themselves.

What was Evvie doing? I was ignoring the person behind me, who was busy talking about business with Mason.

I felt a tap on my shoulder.
"Come on, baby. Don't be mad." Elonzo said. If I didn't know better, I'd think he was pouting.

"Who is baby?" I asked, looking around, still not facing him.

That's my second name.
I guess, I should start introducing myself like, 'Hi, I'm Evelina. You can also call me Baby. That's my other name.'

Ugghh.

"I will-"

"No." I cut him off. I'm not giving into his peace treats, as I'd like to call it.

'I'll buy so much food for you and shoes and stuffies and games and a big car, but you can't drive. More food.'

"Don't be mad. I just didn't want you involved in a mature conversation." He said.

"Mature?" I scoffed. "We were just talking about kissing. A simple trucking KISS." I said.

"Okay. Don't use that word." Elonzo said. I looked back at him with an 'Are you for real?' look. The scowl on his face changed into a look that I've never seen before.

He smiled sweetly and had an 'Oh! I got attention!' look on his face.

I looked away quickly. I mean, who can resist that look. I can't.

"Last chance." He muttered, which I ignored.

Suddenly I felt someone pick me up and pull me to them.

"Let me go, Elonzo." I said, struggling and holding onto Peter's arm. But Elonzo succeeded. Duh.

"Your fault. You should've stopped being mad." He said, holding me with one arm.

One trucking arm. I was struggling to get off his lap, like my life depended on it and he just held me there with one trucking arm.

"Ugh. I'm still not talking to you." I crossed my arms and looked away, immediately regretting it.

All of my brothers and sisters in the room, were looking at us, some adoringly, some laughing at me, some having bored looks, because this was kinda a daily thing and some just plain out giving me that 'we're going to rub it in your face later' look.

This is so embarrassing.

I am not a baby.
I'll say that louder for the people in the back.
I AM NOT A BABY!

'Jeez. Stop yelling.' The voice in my head said.

I tried to push Elonzo, who just smirked, because I couldn't move him.

I crossed my arms and slumped against him, pouting.

"I'm not a baby." I said, starting the argument that we've had way too many times to even count.

"Oh?" Elonzo said, feigning confusion. I glared at him.

"I'm going to tell everyone about your little crush." I whispered harshly. I got my phone out. "I'm calling Anna." I smirked.

He snatched my phone out of my hands, within a millisecond.
"You're grounded." He narrowed his eyes.

"You're grounded." I said, in a heavy voice, mocking him.

"You just doubled the time." He shrugged. I groaned while hiding my face in his chest.

"This is so unfair. Make me in-charge." I said, but it came out muffled.

"But you are just a baby." Elonzo said, like it was the most obvious thing. I glared up at him, annoyed.

If he calls me baby one more time..

Well what can I do? He's scary.

"What?" He asked, innocently looking down at me.

I pointed behind me.
"Mason wants to hug me." I said and tried to get up, knowing he won't resist now.

I stomped over to the other couch to sit beside Mason and cuddled up to him, smirking at the almost pout on Elonzo's face.

"You are adorable." Mason said, kissing my head.

I chuckled.
"Haha. I know." I replied cheekily, making him boop my nose.

"Oh! Your little games are over?" Luciano asked, looking between me and Elonzo.

"No. We'll finish the argument at home." I said, narrowing my eyes at Elonzo, who just shook his head, already bored.

But the argument hasn't even started yet!!

Mason was like Elonzo. Asking if I was okay, taking care of my health, studies, if someone was bothering me, if the younger brothers treat me right or if I need any help. The same old overprotective oldie stuff.

But he's definitely less scarier than Elonzo or any other oldie. He's not as strict and scary as them and I'm happy. Atleast I won't get in trouble so easily, when I come over to spend time with them.

"How's it going with the therapy?" He asked.

"Good." I shrugged. "I didn't want to go. But I'm better."

"That's good." He said, smiling at me.

"Do you have a girlfriend?" I wiggled my eyebrows. He looked at me and narrowed his eyes.

"No. Drop the topic." He said, making me smirk.

"Why? Do you have a crush?" I whispered. He put his hand on my forehead and pushed me back.

"I said, drop the topic." He whispered back, before looking at Elonzo for help. I turned my head to look at Elonzo, who was glaring at me dangerously.

"What?" I asked, innocently.

He looked at Mason and asked.
"What happened?"

Wow. He didn't even know what I said and already tried to kill me with a glare?

"I just asked if he had a girlfriend." I huffed, glaring at Mason.

Elonzo shrugged, dropping the glare.
"Okay. I can't help with that. Good luck getting out of that conversation."

Mason looked at him with a look of betrayal.

I tried getting him to admit something, but he didn't say a word. That's annoying.
