She hadn’t even put it together at first. It hadn’t crossed her mind as a possibility, how could it? They had been together so long now and after 7 years of  marriage it just hadn’t seemed like it was an option at this point. She had put it down to the stress of being back in America and everything with her family all changing, bloating if she had to come up with something that was anything other than that. Maybe Maggie just didn’t even want to let herself think of it because the thought of everything she had with Gio finally being complete? And then not having the chance to really experience it? That would be too much for her. Eventually though she hadn’t been able to ignore it, the nausea, the tiredness, everything else had just been too much and then when she had finally put together the dates of her period…she was pregnant, that much the doctor could confirm. 

Before she had even had time to tell anyone the news a job had been announced and she had been in the car with Gio, vest strapped in place to make sure she was covering as much of herself as she could, but even with the risks staying in the car she just couldn’t. Nothing shocked her more than the words of her husband though, did he know? “Gio…” She breathed, ever so slightly confused as she held the gun cocked at the guys she covering. “Gio I’m pregnant.” 

Gio felt the gun begin to slip from his fingers as he processed the words I’m pregnant. What the fuck? Not like he wasn’t a dad already but Maggie? Pregnant? They talked about kids a while ago. Never thought it was possible due to Maggie getting older and their lifestyle. It wasn’t the ideal environment for a baby. “Maggie for fucks sake. You tell me you’re pregnant while we’re on a job?” He wanted to take the car and leave. This isn’t an environment for his pregnant wife. Normally he wouldn’t be on edge. Now it’s different. She’s carrying their baby. “Watch your six. We’re getting this job done clean and fast so we can talk about our little assassin.”

“Shut the fuck up before I put a bullet in you.” Gio knew how he got around Maggie. That didn’t mean people needed to point it out.

“Don’t you Margaret me.” She huffed as she made her way into his office fully, clicking the door behind her closed, coming to a stop in front of the desk which she lent on, hands pressed flat against the wood. God he looked so good sat behind that desk. “And you didn’t think, over any of the many face times we’ve had this might have been information I needed to know? I would have just cut my time in Ireland short, do you know….baby, pft.” Maggie scoffed pushing herself up again before she rounded the desk towards him. “We’re making the dreams of our customers come true, our girls are already living the life.” The woman hummed. 

“I can’t take you seriously when you come into my office looking like that.” He took her hand in his. This is one of the moments he dreamt of. The simple gesture of being able to hold Maggies hand would normally seem so insignificant to most people. After months of not being able to share the same space as her, he’d take anything he could get right now. He never knew when she’d get pulled away again. “They deserve more. I want to make sure they have it easy during the holidays since they work hard enough already.” Gio stared up at her, holding her hand in silence. She’s everything. Often times he couldn’t believe that their lives aligned the way they did. She’s here. She’s real. “Maggie...welcome home.”

Fucking Halloween… Everyone who went there knew how fucked up it’d been. Being able to escape it out alive with Monroe wasn’t expected, but it certainly was good luck. Of course, neither went out unscathed (physically and mentally) but they were alive and together. That was important. She spent the past couple of days insuring her family were okay before trying to do anything involving her businesses. She’d began to slowly contact their loved ones, though she was hesitant concerning her mother and Ronan. Her first day back at Oasis and in her office, she’d been contemplating either calling Gio or visiting him when he made that decision for her. “DAD!” She’d quickly jumped up and wrapped her arms around him tightly. The girl’s cuts and bruises were slowly starting to heal but her black eye was still noticeable. Yet she didn’t think about that. She was just relieved to see the man she’s considered to be her father. “I promise, I could never complain about your cooking, holy fuck- it’s so good to see you…”

Dad. Gio only had one biological child. The rest of his children weren’t actually his. He was their employer who would go to the ends of the earth to make sure his girls were happy and safe at Mayhem. Some saw him as a father. Others saw him as a best friend. Avery was one of the few that called him dad. “Avery. It’s good to see you too.” Gio looked her over. Whoever she crossed paths with at the carnival did a number on her. He shook his head. Next time this happens he needed to make sure Avery isn’t defenseless. “We need to teach you how to use a gun.”

Two weeks and three days from now would make seven years since he married the love of his life. When he first met her all those years ago, Gio knew that they would be connected in some way. He was a teenager pushed into a world that he was molded to be in. She was beautiful. Still is but as a teenager he thought that she was the most beautiful thing in existence. They grew up together. Always missing the perfect moment to pursue a relationship that was more than friendship. When he was ready, she was dating. When she was ready, he was in a committed relationship. It was like two ships on the same route, never docking at the same time. Until they did. When it finally happened, Gio didn’t know what to do. He couldn’t comprehend the fact that she was real. They could be together for as long as time allowed. Every time he looks at her, he remembers their firsts. The first hello, their first goodbye, and their first I love you. No one would call him a romantic. Not until they saw how he looked at Maggie. To him the world was hers and he was lucky to be by her side.

Even now as they sat side by side he couldn’t see anything else but her. “Marry me, Maggie Rossi.”

He didn’t know what to feel. One moment he was working on schedules for the girls. Next moment his freakishly hot wife was back. He set his laptop aside, trying to hold in the smile that appeared whenever Maggies around. “Well, Margaret. Everything went to shit. Ophelia came here which isn’t surprising. Halloween consisted of a carnival and a shit ton of violence. Alessia had her eyes opened to her future as a possible mob wife.” Gio couldn’t hold it in anymore. She’s perfect. “Scold me? As I’m making holiday wishes come true for our daughters at Mayhem. I’m insulted, baby.”

Maggie may have loved her husband more than words could describe sometimes, and she would quite happily hide away from the world with him but that didn’t mean that she didn’t often want to kill him too, like right now as she had come home to the news two more of her cousins were in town, poor Alessia was traumatized and there had been a murderous carnival in town. “Giovani Rossi what the hell happened to my family whilst I was gone?” She asked, a brow raised. She had heard rumors back in Ireland of what had gone down in New York with William and Ophelia, but she didn’t know she’d ended up here. “And who the hell gave you permission to look so good when I’m trying to scald you.”

“Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh… that is very good to know,” Charlotte mused and had a pensive little look on her face. Maybe she should… try to apply? Stay here a while? Hmm. She laughed at his comment and gave him a playful smirk. “Oh, really? Tell me more,” she teased, messing around with him. She laughed lightly at his question, shaking her head in amusement. “Wandered in on a breeze?” she offered in jest. “Basically how I came to town, too, so new… exploring everything… wondering if maybe I should stay… and maybe find a job? But I’m not suited for, like, most things. I wanna be an actress. Working my way to LA… somehow I ended up too far north.” She still wasn’t sure exactly how that happened, but she was not a woman who was good with planning. Spontaneity was her game. 

At the mention of job, Gio decided to cut the charade. He’s a business man and she’s a beautiful woman. Charlotte would fit in perfectly here. “I’m the owner. Mayhem is my baby. So if you’re thinking about a job I’m the man to talk to.” He started remembering his own start in Santa Ysabel. A couple of friends made the adjustment easier. “This is a good place to settle down. I came here expecting to be alone. Now I have a business and another family. Santa Ysabel is something special.”

Richie never thought that he’d be visiting his cousin at a strip club of all places but he figures crazier things have happened. Even if Gio’s connected by Saoirse – and God he will forever regret not begging her to stay so she could have helped him knock William on his ass – he’s still family. After all that’s happened, the young O'Riley – now, Brookshire, actually – has learned to appreciate those he has left, which ultimately right now only includes Connor and Gio. There’s no bond stronger than loyalty and they’ve both proven themselves to not be as crazy as his brother, so he’s taking what he can get. 

He sits at the bar, taking sips from the pint he’s ordered. Richie signals the bartender as his eyes wander towards the women on stage. “Call Gio for me, will ya,” he slips in a fifty on the man’s pocket once he’s within reach. “Tell him his favorite cousin’s here to see him." 

Gio was doing his usual rounds in the club. He could always watch the cameras from his office. Walking around felt more personal. He could keep an eye on his girls as well as make connections with the wanderers. So far nothing bad had gone down. Nat was working tonight so he wasn’t as stressed about it as he would be had she been off. The two of them protected the family. If shit went down they’d handle it. 

He was surprised when one of his bartenders approached him talking about a favorite cousin. Sammy? Ophelia? Richie? Gio tried not to play favorites. As he approached the bar he saw it was indeed Richie O’Riley. “Who lied to you and said you were my favorite cousin. Did Sammy implant a tracker in my ass one night? How you all find me is a mystery.” He joked. “What can I do for you, cousin?”

“I have the nerve?” Ophelia rose a brow as she looked at her cousin. What did they all think that she had been doing for the past five years? She was left behind, she was the one that had stayed and tired to keep together what had been left of the O’Rileys when Will had come to take back over and she was the one that was on the receiving end of the hostility? “Feel free to try Gio but I’m not the one that left…and I’m not the teenage girl that was left behind anymore. I’ve been in the business whilst you’ve been here hiding in your little bar.” Her expression was cold, void of any sort of emotion because if she let even the slightest amount through these days she was scared that it would all come flooding through. “I had to leave Brooklyn for a while and I’m not here for you anyway, I’m here for my brother, I was merely stopping by to see how you were but if I’m not welcome I can leave.” She wasn’t about to stay somewhere she wasn’t welcome, she hadn’t come here for a cushy time after all, she was here in the hopes that she could convince her brother to stand with her, to take back what he had once ruled and that he would let her stay by his side as he did it. Ophelia would have done it herself but time and time again she had tried to gain favor only to be back lashed for being a woman and if she needed Richie as the face of the business whilst she took back their home she would. “So what’ll it be cousin…are we going to hug it out or should I walk away?” 

“Yes you do. I was on a call with Saoirse. As much as I love you and trust me I do I’d like some uninterrupted time with my wife which doesn’t come often.” He couldn’t help but smile a little at that. So much time spent working for her family... “Oh? Am I supposed to congratulate you for finally growing up? You still ended up here with the rest of us. This little bar was started as a future base for what would inevitably blow up aka New York.” Gio prided himself on preparing for the future. Finding a place that could front as a normal boujee strip club. While the locked back rooms and basement would be put to use. “Santa Ysabel is a lawless place. We could work and no one bats an eye because the cops can’t touch us. It’s the perfect place for what we can do. I didn’t run. I walked right out the front door with a plan.” His mood was getting better. It is nice to see Ophelia. Part of him did miss her. She hit one of soft spots. “I’m good. The move was good for me. It will be good for you too if you let it. Richie should be here within the hour if you’d like to stay. I can introduce you to some of the girls.” He went behind the bar to get one of Saoirses favorites. A glass of white wine is a good peace offering. “You know I don’t hug much. How about wine and an open tab as long as you don’t call my club little again?” He smiled as he set the glass down in front of her.

💘 What are the ways my muse says ‘I love you’ without actually saying it?

Acts of Service. I’m big on people doing shit for themselves. So when I decide to do something like fill up her tank, cook her dinner, and wash the dishes, etc. I can spend my time doing stuff for her so that she doesn’t have to worry about it at the end of the day.
