Third person's pov-
Breakfast the next morning was tense. Everyone seemed to be buried in their own thoughts. Gabriella noticed the tense atmosphere but didn't ask any questions
Antonio wasn't there for breakfast and it just made Xander feel worse, he knew he didn't come down because of what happened yesterday. He had to apologize
He hurriedly finished his food and rushed back upstairs. Xavier seeing this, also stood up and left as he already knew where his twin was going
"Why are you following me?" Xander asked as he saw Xavier
"I told you I also have to apologize to him. Besides I can't let my twinny go into the lions den alone now can I?" Xavier said cheekily and Xander rolled his eyes
They walked to Antonio's office together and Xander knocked hesitantly. They waited for a minute until they heard a 'come in'
They walked in to see their older brother sitting with files scattered all around him. He had dark circles under his eyes which indicated that he didn't get any sleep last night
When Antonio saw them, his eyes widened ever so slightly. He never expected to see them standing in his office after what happened yesterday
"How may I help you two?" He asked formally
When the twins heard his formal tone, they winced. They knew they fucked up real bad to bring out this side of Antonio
"I- I mean we came to apologize for what happened yesterday" Xander stuttered
"You're forgiven" Antonio said nonchalantly. He didn't want the twins to feel bad despite all that they said to him the other day. They were still his baby brothers
"No please listen to us. I made a mistake by bringing up dad, I know it was never your fault. I don't even know why I said that please forgive me Tony. It was never my intention to hurt you with my words" Xander pleaded desperately, tears welling in his eyes. He didn't want his older brother to hate him because of what he did
Antonio sighed heavily upon seeing the state of his brother. He got up and walked towards him, when he was close enough, he wrapped his hands around his baby brother
"I'm not mad at you Xander. It's okay, your words may have hurt me but I can never hate you" he reassured almost like he knew what was going on in Xander's head
"I'm also sorry for yelling at you" Xavier said timidly
"It's okay bud, I wasn't mad at any of you. You're both forgiven" Antonio said and ruffled his hair
"No punishment?" The twins asked together and Antonio shook his head lightly
"No" that one word made the twins upset. They wanted the punishment because it would prove that Antonio had truly forgiven them
"Give us a punishment!" They whined and Antonio's eyes twinkled in amusement. He never thought he would see the day that they would beg for a punishment
"Give me your phones and your games. You're grounded for a week"
He said and they both immediately took out their phones and handed it to him
"We're sorry" they said in unison and ran out of his office. Antonio chuckled slightly seeing them run out
Gabriella's pov-
I'm in my room, working on my painting for Matteo's birthday tomorrow. I just had to add some finishing touches and it would be done.
My door suddenly burst open and Stephano barged in with a smile
"What are you doing sorella?" He asked, peaking at my drawing
