With the way his face was pushed into Marcel's chest like a child being cradled to his mother's breast, Victor has been tempted to bite Marcel's nipple hard enough for him to stop fucking around with him. However, his cousin was a bad motherfucker and would likely drop him to the ground with nothing to break his fall. So Victor respected himself by letting go of the grudges. It was enough that Marcel was helping him out and couldn't piss him off.
By the time Marcel got him into his room, Victor only had to contend with keeping up with his act as his mother was determined to check if he was injured. He didn't hear Mimi's worried voice anymore and he guessed that Marcel already whispered to her that he was okay.
He couldn't tell how much time passed, but when Victor felt like his acting was enough, he finally opened his eyes with a groan. Damn, he should have been an actor, instead of the Mafia. Any chances Marcel would let him go pursue his sudden dream of acting?
