Chapter three-
Toni awoke to the sight of Teresa laying next to him on his bed. He remembered last night, and was strangely over-joyed at the sight of Teresa sleeping next to him. He sat up in his bed and looked over at Teresa, noticing that the covers had slid down so her upper body was exposed to the cold air. He got out of bed, walked to her side of the bed and pulled the covers back up to her shoulders. After looking at Teresa's serene figure, Toni then walked to his closet where he collected two bath robes, he put his favorite blue robe on, and gave Teresa his other white robe.
Toni walked into his living room and sat on the couch. With uncanny timing, his phone rang. Toni shook his head and picked up the phone after the second ring.
"Hello?" asked Toni.
"Yo, Toni. It's Lil' Luco." Toni didn't need the confirmation, he knew it was Luchino Syracuse from his deep yet scratchy voice. "Look, Toni. Michael still hasn't got word from Vice City. Vido still hasn't contacted Michael.
"Well yes, I could have told you that." Toni looked over back to his bedroom as he saw the Teresa walk up to his door way, struggling to put on her loaned bath robe.
"That's not the problem," said Luco with some urgency in his voice. "Some gang is challenging our authority, saying that we have no leadership. I need your confirmation, do you wish to name Michael as our temporary Don?"
"Luco, Luco, Luco... No need to ask such questions!"
Toni again eyed Teresa. "Michael is our Don for now, no please do not bother me. I'm gonna enjoy my free time, capisce?"
"But Toni!..." Luco was cut off by Toni hanging up the phone.
"Free time?" Teresa asked teasingly.
"Free time... For you and I," Toni winked and got up to kiss Teresa. For Toni, this was possibly his longest kiss ever. Teresa and Toni looked into eachother's eyes, Toni then held onto Teresa's hand and led her down to the couch.
"I'll make you some breakfast," said Toni as he bowed and walked to the kitchen.
Teresa looked around the crimson red couch and over to a table. She found the remote controller for the flat screen television on the wall. She pressed the power button and the television turned on to it's last channel it was set on before it was turned off.
Good afternoon, this is the Liberty City update at Noon. Our top story today is the shootout at Marco's Bistro. A small box appeared over to the left of the anchorwoman's head. The box showed a graphic of a machine gun with some spent casings surronded by police tape. The shooting took place around midnight. The shooter was apprehended shortly after police arrived, the suspect did not attempt to resist arrest, as he had been shot one time in the chest, and was found lying on the ground in the parking lot. Fortunately, no one was harmed but there was some damage to the resteraunt. We interviewed one of the patrons.
"My wife and I were having dinner when all of the sudden, BAM! Gunshots rang out. I ducked for cover and my wife did the same (mutters under breath damnit). I look up to see one guy in a white tuxedo and a woman in a blue dress run out of the club..." At this point, Teresa turned off the television.
Teresa sighed, got off of the couch and walked into the kitchen to help Toni (who was stuggling to break an egg without getting the shell in the pan) cook their first breakfast, knowing she would possibly cook more..
