Chapter 307
Cat

Sunday morning, we got up late and had brunch on the patio. We were like to love sick teenagers, we couldn’t stop touching each other. Every time we walk past each other, we will stop and first kiss. It was nice seeing Nico this way and feeling this way felt even better. I mean now I won’t disappoint the others although I’m sure John will have 30 questions to make sure, I’m really in love with Nico and I’m not faking it. But I can honestly say I’m not faking a thing. When Nico’s walls came down and he started to be himself I fell for him. As Nico came to sit next to me on the patio he asked me “You want to come back to my place tonight or you wanne go back to Enzo’s?’ That was a loaded question because off course I wanted to be with him for longer but I wanted to see the other 3 and convince them I have truly fallen for Nico. “I think I should go back to Enzo’s and talk to the others.” “Don’t you think we should do that together?” “No, I’m sure they will have lots of questions to make sure I am in love with you and aren’t faking it for their sake.” That took him a bit by surprise. “Would you really have put on a show to please them?” “I don’t know and now we don’t have to find out because I am in love with you in fact I love you. I’m not just in love.” “Are you sure?” He asked skeptically. I took his hands in mine, “Look at me Nico.” He looked up and looked me straight in the eyes. “I won’t lie to you I am in love with you and I do love you, I’m not putting on a show. I’m sure you would have seen if I was putting on a show, I’m not a very good actor.” He leaned in and kissed me. “No, you’re not.” I slapped him on the shoulder. “Hey that’s a compliment.” “Okay fine I’ll take it as one.

After brunch we got our bags ready and drove to the airport I wasn’t happy to go home I wanted to stay at least for another week. I was looking out the window when Nico took my hand “We’ll come back sweetheart I promise you we will come back.” “All of us?” “Yes, all of us.” That made me feel a bit better I would love to be here with all four of them I can just imagine what a wild ride that would be. We got on the plane and off course I took my seat at the window. Nico took his seat next to me. “You ready to go home?” “I am now.” “You still afraid of flying?” We rode a rollercoaster or two so I’m not suppose to be. Nico said when we got off the roller coaster it was worse than flying. “Sorry Nico, yes I’m still afraid of flying.” “I’m sure we will get you over this fear soon enough.” The pilot’s voice came over the intercom telling us we should prepare for take-off. My seatbelt was on as soon as I took my seat so I was ready. Nico gave me his hand “Are you sure?” “Well, it’s still whole you didn’t break it yet.” I had to laugh because I did press his hand on the roller coaster as well. “You are such a kind man.” I said smiling at him. “Only for you.” Then he kissed me and I totally forgot where we are and what was happening around us. When the pilot said we could unbuckle our seatbelts we were in the air and I didn’t even press Nico’s hand. 

He looked at me and smiled. “I like the way you distract me.” “I love it to and my hand loves it. You want something to drink?” “Tea, if she don’t mind.” “It’s her work Cat why would she mind?” “I don’t know just saying.” He got me a tea and for himself an espresso. We chatted about the few days away in Disney and my wound came up, “You going to tell anyone about the first night?” “Hell, no they would be pissed at you and me so I’m not doing that.” “Okay good we are just getting on the same page here. I don’t want them pissed at me.” “You think I want 3 men pissed at me? Hell no.” “Well then it’s our secret.” “Thanks Nico.” Nico took his phone and checked his messages while I put my head back on the seat and fell asleep. It was such a great few days but busy I was actually tired and wanted to get into bed and just sleep for a while. I know I had afternoon naps but between being taken to Vegas, then shot at, then going to New York and then this week in Disney it was just too much. It was busy I just wanted to relax, luckily for me it’s Enzo’s week and I know he will let me relax probable not at night but definitely during the day. 

“Cat, Cat.” Nico said over and over. I open my eyes and looked at him, like in why are you waking me? “Don’t look at me like that, we’re home.” “We already landed?” “We did and see nothing happened.” “Yes, well I was asleep I wouldn’t have known if something happened.” He just laughed at me because off course I would have woken up if the airplane was falling from the sky. When we walked out of the plane Rocco was there with the black SUV waiting for us. When he saw our suitcases, he ran over to Nico to take it from him. “Thanks Rocco.” “My pleasure boss and welcome back.” “Thanks Rocco.” “Where to?” Rocco asked. “To Enzo’s, Cat here is sick of me.” I slapped him on his shoulder. “That’s not the reason why?” “I know Cat I’m just joking with you.” “Oh, good because I don’t want you to ever think that again.” “Yes, I won’t.” Nico said smiling from ear to ear. “I love you Nico Nitti and there is nothing anyone can do about it.” “I love you to Caterina Capone.” My eyes caught Rocco’s face in the mirror he gave a big smile probable glad that his boss will be in a better mood from now on.
