2p!F.A.C.E. x child!reader- She's...alright(ch.17)

"S-she's...S-she...S-she can't be!", you refused to believe the truth. "No! No!"

"Well she is. Now that Peter's big mouth told you, I could tell you about her"

"What's she like now?", Al questioned.

"She's adorable! Her fashion sense is so on point, I'm proud to call her my niece! Anyway, she's really smart and listens well, so Luci tells me. She's a lot like Luciano. I can tell she's gonna grow up to have his smart mouth too"

You sat on the floor, rubbing your fist against one another, still trying to understand it all. You didn't think anyone could possibly be truly happy with that deceitful man. "Aye (name)", Peter pulled you out of your thoughts.

"Y-yes?"

"You know she knows your name and stuff, right?"

You nod, "Uh-huh. I told her"

"Yeah. I mentioned your name one time and she got all...antsy"

"She did?"

"Yeah"

"Hm...I really wanna see her..."

"Fine! Fine!...I'll help you but you guys have to be like secret friends. I'm sure my brother wouldn't like it very much knowing you two were friends...I can bring her over when I take her shopping"

"R-really?!", your eyes sparkled at the idea and your cheeks hurt from such hard smiling. "Oh, thank you goddaddy!! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!" You take his hand and cuddle it to your face. "I would hug you but I don't want to ruin your clothes with all my excitement!"

"Aww!!! You care so much! How can deny such a cute kid like you?! Plus I'm sure you two would be great friends despite everything"

The next weekend, on a Saturday, Flavio told you over the phone that he would be by later with (ragazza). You couldn't wait. You were so excited it was hard to contain. There was so much you wanted to ask her and talk to her about. You prepared some snacks for her and made them extra cute since you knew she was younger that you and you changed into a really nice dress since Flavio told you her style was so amazing.

You were setting up tea and cookies on a platter when you noticed your dad come into the kitchen. "Look dad. I'm preparing everything nicely"

"I see! It looks as if you two would have so much fun together"

"I hope so...Even though her dad is awful and terrible as a person, I hope we can be friends" 

"I'm sure you will be", he pats your head before leaving. You went back to fixing things up, then there was a knock at the door that made your heart stop. You ran to the door. Your hands were shaking but you slowly opened it. There stood your goddad and (ragazza) but she wasn't paying attention when you opened the door. She was looking behind her.

"Uncle Flavio. Where are w-", her eyes met yours and they got wider. 

You smiled, "H-hi"

"W-why are we h-here?"

"So you two can be friends!", Flavio bubbled then took her wrist and brought her in the house. "Now you two make friends~!", he waved before going off down the hall.

"I-it's really nice to a-actually meet you now" She stayed silent. "Uhm...How old are you?"

".....N-nine"

"Oh! Our ages aren't that far away! I'm twelve!"

"Ok", she mumbled.

You thought of ways you could make her more relaxed. "Hm...Oh! I know! Would you like some tea, dear? Are you hungry? I'm great at baking and made cookies and cupcakes for us!"

"Y-you knew I was coming?"

"Yes! I was so excited when my goddaddy told me!"

"Goddad?"

You nod energetically. "Yes! He's my goddaddy!" She took off her small bookbag and got out the teddy bear who's head was poking out of it. "...That's a very cute bear you have"

"T-thank you", she whispered and hugged the bear.

"Al told me about it. Your mom gave it to you, right?"

Her head shot up. "A-Al told you about me? T-that's how you knew who I was?"

"Uh-huh...I'm sure he'd like to see you again...He thought you were dead this whole time...He was very worried"

She looked to the side. "...C-can I sit?"

"Oh! Of course! You can sit at the table and I'll get the snacks for us!" She slowly walked over to the table. She carefully placed her bear on the table then pulled out a chair with her head down. She sat quietly. You watched her then went to the kitchen where you got the food you prepared. When you came back, she was staring at her bear and nodding a little. "...What are you doing?"

She jumped then turned towards you. "N-nothing...T-those look very good"

Your face lights up at her comment. "Thank you! I tried so hard on them to make sure you'd like them! I really hope you do!" You placed a small plate in front of her and sat one of the cupcakes on it along with a fresh baked cookie. As she picked up the cookie, you started pouring her some tea. "D-do you like it?"

"W-wow. You're really good at baking"

"I'm so happy!! Eat as much as you want!"

"A-are you sure?"

"Of course! I made them for you! I want you to enjoy them!"

She took another bite then peeked her eyes over to her bear. "Uhm...(poppet)?..."

"Yes?"

"You...Y-you know who I am right?"

"Uh-huh! You're (ragazza)!"

"N-no I mean...you know where I stay...W-who my dad is..."

You nod, "Yes. I heard"

"Then why are you so content on trying to be friends with me?"

"Hm...I don't really know...I guess when Al told me about you, I felt really sorry for you. No one knew who you were. Not even my uncle Francis and he knows everybody! So I didn't believe you could've just died. It seemed so sad. So I tried to find you the best I could, especially after I saw you the second time...But now, I feel as if we have this bond. Do you feel it too? It's like we're meant to be best friends. It's like a voice in our ears telling us that our friendship should be a strong one. Do you hear it?...Oh! That reminds me!", you whistle. "Fruitloop! Come here boy!" After your words, your pet soon came running. "Yay! You remember Fruitloop?"
