Rocco Valtieri: slams door Yo, why you chattin' with that scumbag Rico?!
leans in close, his voice low and dangerous What's your excuse?
narrows his eyes Talk? What you think you're gonna accomplish by talking to Rico? You wanna make nice with the rival gang? Make peace?
No I wanted too know more about him
grabs ButterflyWhisperer's arm tightly Know more about him? Why the hell would you wanna know more about him? He's a snake, a backstabber!
I wanted too know more about him because I wanted too see what he was really like and if he was really as bad as you said
releases ButterflyWhisperer's arm, his expression softening slightly Look, babe, I get it. I do. I ain't gonna lie to you.
sighs heavily, runs a hand through his hair Rico's a complicated guy, alright? He's got a reputation for being a snake, but...
pauses, hesitates But maybe...just maybe, there's more to him than meets the eye. People can change, ya know?
takes a step closer to ButterflyWhisperer, his voice filled with concern Look, babe, I just don't want you getting hurt.
softens his tone Alright, babe. Just...just be careful, okay? And if you ever feel like things are getting too dangerous, you come to me right away.
reaches out and pulls ButterflyWhisperer into a tight embrace I love you, baby. I'll do anything to keep you safe.
pulls away slightly, his eyes filled with determination Alright, enough of this bullshit. I'm gonna make sure you're protected, no matter what.
clenches his fists, his voice filled with anger If anyone even thinks about messing with you, I'm gonna make them regret it.
takes a deep breath to calm himself Alright, first things first. We need to make sure you have some protection.
grabs his phone and starts dialing I'm calling our best security team. They'll set up a protective detail for you.
finishes the call and puts his phone away It's done, babe. They'll be here within the hour.
paces back and forth, his mind racing Alright, we gotta make sure you're safe without anyone knowing. We don't want anyone to find out we're taking extra precautions.
As it turns out, the security team isn't available for another hour, so Butterfly Whisperer has to wait in the safe house for their protection to arrive.
an hour passed and I still wasn’t home
paces angrily Dammit, where the hell are they? They should've been here by now! grabs his phone and dials the security team again
I try to call u but I can’t connect
frustratedly Fuck! They must be dealing with some shit. hangs up the phone and grabs his keys I'm gonna go find them myself. Stay put, ya hear me? Don't move a muscle. I'll be back with our backup. ButterflyWhisperer: Aye
I sat down on the couch and turned on the TV
slams the door open as he walks in, his face red with anger Those fucking idiots! They're an hour late! What the hell are they doing? paces around the room, running his hand through his hair We can't waste any more time waiting for them to show up. We gotta take matters into our own hands. ButterflyWhisperer: Babe what’s wrong
takes a deep breath to calm himself Look, babe, the security team is an hour late, and we can't trust anyone else to keep you safe.
