Kimberly nods and walks down the length of kitchen, running her fingers along the island in the middle. Her free hand strokes at her hard, little bump nestled under her dress. 559Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡofKBXU8OgH

When she had called last week to announce she was coming, I was over the freaking moon! Alessio had apparently planned a surprise visit behind my back and I couldn't be more grateful to have my bestfriend next to me again. 559Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzys7HXxWD2

They have been inseparable since I the night I was shot. Mom and dad discussed his past and made a promise to one another to move forward. The word 'Kuznetsov' has been deemed a dirty word in their household.559Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRpKI8fDhAF

Anna finally married that hunky blonde guy, Alonzo, in July. Their wedding was insane and I got to visit Italy for the first time since she moved. I figured she would go all out anyways though to top any other Romano party in history.559Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5IU3kaJRla

Giovanni and Beto are doing really good from what I've been told. Alessio appointed Giovanni second in command and Beto is the head of all shipment control. The boys had been super busy, especially Alessio.559Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvNEG2WxIYp

Since moving to New York a month ago, I have seen him maybe twice so far which is a huge change for both of us. The day Alessio proposed to me in the hospital room, we've been joined at the hip. Every day we'd go explore the city, take559Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpuOga5YWQc

559Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkfHAAYVkjf
"Honestly, really good." I look around at my little place, everything mostly unpacked after a month of me dragging my feet. "I miss seeing everyone so much, but it has been really great here. School is a little much, but I'm doing good and the coffee shop I transferred to is an absolute blast."559Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvxshU5rmIm
559Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6BphO3PoJo
"Making me want to move to New York!" Kim laughs and moves to sit next to me. "So, how has everything been with Alessio? After...what happened, you guys seem to have been real attached to one another."559Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3W0asohQMg

559Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnmhFnrwulh
She nods, a massive almost creepy grin contorting her pretty features. "Then don't even worry, bitch! He's a freaking god among mortals, marry that man."559Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK62c7zfkO7
559Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOLvoLnOkp5

Suddenly, there's a loud buzz coming from the coffee table across from the two of us. I reach over and pick it up.559Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZS7XBOhyr5
559Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZC4goM6fiV
New Message. 559Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGFJT9WyBAv
559Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu4ksCtMFlQ
I click it open and begin scanning the text that had come through from Alessio's phone. He must still be busy, he never texts me.559Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAZ1pWkopH4

"I have a surprise for you."559Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFq8mEUE3QQ

559Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqALthQYbEa
I just roll my eyes at her and step out onto the side walk with her close behind. There are cars everywhere, but from what I can see...none look like his.559Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbMNWKL3WRG
559Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU8BOaMN2va
And trust me, I can spot his car out immediately. Not to mention, the car he got me is now safely back home with him.559Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1vzt46VXKV

"Let's check down there, I'll call him."559Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3HLPMEqvsZ
559Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡet4IiVYRSP
The two of us head down the sidewalk, slipping by the herd of people headed in the opposite direction. I pull my phone out and quickly dial his number.559Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5sd4pYYnFK
559Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoYLRvxfkCl
"What?" Kim asks and pulls me quickly against a wall near us so we aren't trampled. "He said outside in five, right?"559Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLvTjWJkPZ5
559Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLhD0HKWAmj
"Yeah, but he's not answering. Let me call Beto."559Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ03ZsA9algy
559Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQq0YO2uKAz
I put the phone up to my ear and listen to the shrill ringing as Beto's voice echoes a little too cheerfully from the other end.559Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9g48tE114P
559Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYY51TchHYE
"Ollliivvviiia! What's up? Long time no see, college chick."559Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Mqzm5kyKj

"Olivia, don't move." Beto demands.559Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2WGc22ZweB

The urgency in his voice causes my body to turn cold. His tone hits me like a wave of sickness and I glance up at Kim's confused face.559Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjMzcVn00eQ
559Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJrIs16MRmr
"Everything okay?" She whispers.559Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwSo4juZfDU

"Olivia? What's going on?" Alessio asks, sounding concerned.559Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfmndqxhaMR

"Get inside your place. My phone is missing, I'll be there in half an hour. I have some men stationed in the city, they'll be alerted and on guard in no less than five." He says quickly. His voice serious, business-like. Absolutely no room for argument or sarcasm.559Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGsVM64MyV9
559Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhOKgi8PAwR
I nod, mostly to myself. A massive lump forming in my throat as I start to pull the phone away from my ear a bit.559Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVECQqE3PNB
559Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUIFd9DTYpr

I look up at her, my eyes wide. "Kim...we need to go inside."559Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKYr3caxIH3
559Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBEsKZ8oR6D
