Tiny feet and soft footsteps could be heard pattering against the wooden floor of the living room. A soft giggle would resound throughout the room from time to time. Ellie ran to the corner of the living room and sprawled on the white fur carpet. The soft yellow light from the lamp made her face glow.
Who knew what was going on in her mind?
Eleonora and Camilla sat on the sofas, crocheting sweaters for the winter. The nights were starting to get colder, and the mornings were chilly. Seeing Ellie sprawled on the floor wearing just a light blue sweater dress, Eleonora chuckled and called her out. "Ellie? Verresti qui per un secondo?", (Would you come here for a second?) Listening to her mother's voice, Ellie ran to her and climbed onto her lap, seating herself. She hugged her mother, her legs on either side, one hand playing with her mother's soft blonde curls, which matched hers.
"Mammina", (Mommy) Ellie said generally, was more interested in playing with her mother's hair. Feeling something soft touch her feet, she glanced at them, finding a pair of soft blue knitted socks, with a white heart on each. She stared at them in awe and smiled brightly looking at her mother, pecking on her cheeks. Her mother held her by her sides and removed the rogue curls away from her eyes all while smiling softly. While Camilla lovingly watched the scene before her, adoring the two.
Soon after, the whole mansion knew about Ellie's new socks. The staff, Kevin, Ilaria, her father, and her uncle. However, this one person was still missing. Ellie waited patiently for Killian to come, she sat on her mother's lap who sat near the fireplace as all the family members conversed about the day whereas Ilaria and Kevin played with their toys.
Camilla noticed a gloomy Ellie and called her. Lifting her up, she settled Ellie on her lap. Facing her aunt completely, Ellie slumped against Camilla. A small pout forming on her face."Perché sei triste da quella sera Tesoro?" (why are you sad since the evening darling?), Ellie's eyes glistened with tears." Kian no ancoi casa, ZiaCamima ", (Killian's not home yet Aunty Camilla) she whined and threw her head back so that she could see Camilla's face and stretched her hands, telling her how big the matter was. Chuckling she was about to reply when they heard ,"Mi piacciono molto i tuoi calzini Bella ragazza", (I like your socks, pretty girl).
A shocked Ellie snapped her head in the direction of the voice. She was very happy to see him, but she huffed and looked the other way, making others chuckle at her antics. Smiling, Killian walked towards her with an ice cream tub in his hand. "Bene? se le persone non preferiscono parlare con me, avrò questo gelato da solo." (okay? if people don't prefer talking to me, I shall have this ice cream alone).
Scrunching her face up, she pondered over the fact that if she didn't have ice cream she would be "ice cream less". Accepting the defeat Ellie threw a tantrum about how bad he was as she kept waiting for him to show him, her new socks and how he also dared to eat his ice cream. As the night passed Killian tried to coddle his Angel.

Ellie couldn't help but close her eyes and think about the warm fingers caressing her waist as her white sweater glided up.
It feels soothing; I could sleep.
"I'm not doing this so you can sleep, Angel", Killian whispered. Ellie snapped her eyes open and felt her cheeks on fire. "Apologies", she muttered, looking down. Placing two of his fingers under her chin, he lifted her face so he could look at whatever emotion her eyes expressed. "I want you to look at me when you speak... Go open the mini freezer and take whatever you want", Killian asked her to do which she complied very easily. The tension was too much for him to handle.
If only things were in his hands...
Ellie's pov
Oh my god. One more minute, I would have stayed there, and I would have fainted. But I had a bigger task to do: eat something. Making my way toward the mini freezer, I opened it only to find it filled with chocolate ice cream.
My love, I was waiting for you.
Squealing I forgot there was someone else in the room as well. I took it out. "The spoon is in the drawer", Killian sweetheart said. Getting the spoon, I walked over to the rocking chair with a white throw blanket near the window and the bookshelf. I took off my boots and tucked my feet under my legs, throwing the throw blanket over me and eating the ice cream. I made sure to be extra careful and not spill it anywhere. It looked so pretty outside. Everyone looked so busy and small, and the sun kept hiding behind the clouds; it would peak once in a while.
The door opened, and in came Boba and Ilaria. I forgot I came with her. "Bobaa!", I exclaimed, making them look at me. He always makes me happy. "Look at you! A fur ball, I could easily take you home and keep you in my room forever" Ilarie squealed, clasping her hands together. To which Killian sweetheart glared at her. Meanie.
"Che cosa? ti renderebbe solo le cose più facili", (What? it would only make things easier for you) Ilarie stated again shrugging. "Never mind them, look at you eating like a kitten", Boba said as he grabbed a handful of tissues and walked towards me. I gave him a big smile. He took the box from me and wiped my hands and mouth. "And she finished the whole box". Hehe
Such a good brother
Discarding everything, he zipped my boots while I was too busy to hear the commotion outside. Suddenly, the door slammed open again, and Boba, captured my hand.
Aiming for a run I guess. Silly Boba.This is not Tangled.
In came a man looking the same age as Killian's sweetheart. He had brown, curly hair. A mustache. It reminded me of Charlie Chaplin, but he looked like a very new and pretty version.
Shush Ellie.
"Dai, non sembro Charlie Chaplin. Io sono più alto di lui e molto caldo devo aggiungere", (Come on, I don't look like Charlie Chaplin. I'm taller than him and very hot I must add) the man replied to my thoughts making me facepalm and earning a chuckle from people sitting except Killian sweetheart, who looked more amused and than anyone else.
"Molto arrogante?", (Cocky much?), Boba replied. Hehe. I passed him a nervous laugh muttering a hi. The man in the blue suit came and snatched my hand from Boba's and hugged me tightly.
Warm hugs
And I was again ripped off, and this time my back collided with a new familiar scent. I turned my head and was met with a furious Killian who looked as if someone ate his ice cream.
That would be me?
As he was throwing daggers at the man in the suit, he simultaneously rubbed circles on my wrist, which burned a little due to people snatching me like a doll.
How tiring. "Che cazzo ci fai qui?", (What the Fuck are you doing here?) Killian's sweetheart threw a profanity. "No no no, no bad words Killian Sweetheart, I will have to make a swear jar for you", I placed my hand on his mouth, whispering the last thing to myself.
He needs to learn how to not use them, and as he spoke he resembled a dragon who would have been flaring out fire from his nostrils. If he were one. Giggling at my thoughts I turned to look at him again who was now looking at me making me , Ops. I did that again. Before anything more embarrassing would have happened I slumped my head on his chest. Which was very risky, so I changed my position and turned towards the;
Man... in the suit.
"Cutieee... Non c'è bisogno di andare tutti i gorilla su di me. sono appena venuto per incontrarla... uomo arrogante", (No need to go all gorilla on me. I just came to meet her... arrogant man) the man said and huffed looking in the other direction. Killian left my wrist not before placing a small kiss on it and sighing. "Hi, Little Birdie", Birdie me?
"Yes you, I'm Alessandro, you can just call me Sandro like the rest of them", Alessandro ended with a small smile, ruffling my hair he turned towards boba. They kept on chatting while Ilarie was going through something on her phone and Killian was looking out the window. Walking cautiously I placed a hand on his arm. He sighed and turned and gave me a small smile, wrapped his arm around my waist making me squeal. He laughed.
Awww, this man can laugh.
Placing a kiss on my forehead, he moved toward his desk, and we heard a screech. "Shush kiddo! We are going to the restaurant right away", Alessandro flipped off his imaginary long hair and turned to go to the door. "In the parking lot in 5", and left. This time, all three of the others sighed.
