			 Not Another Mobster Book

	Once you're in, you're in.
	No if ands or buts about it.
	I never chose this life, but its mine to live.
	Hi, I'm Alessandro Gallo. I'm 16 years old and I live in Brooklyn
with my family.  I am the youngest of four.
	My oldest brother is Daniello. He is 24 years old and he lives in
an apartment in the city.  He is the wisest of all my brothers.  He's about
6'4, 225 lbs. of Italian muscle, black hair and brown eyes with olive skin.
He has business sense and my father has the most respect for Danny.  He is
my favorite because when I was born, he would play with me when my other
brothers would not.  When he left home to work in the city with my father,
I was crushed.  He promised to never leave me, but he does have a fiance
now.  Her name is Alina.  She's my brother's age and from a pretty
prominent family in our social circle.  To me, the marriage looks like some
sort of production, but my dad says that it is none of my business and I
should keep my mouth shut.
	My next brother is Vincenzo.  I call him Vinny.  He is 23, 6'2 190
lbs, brown hair and green eyes with paler skin.  He lives at home with us
and him and I don't really get along that well.  I know he has my back no
matter what, but he just is not a very emotional person.  My father says
that in the end, Vinny will be running the show.  My brother scares me.  I
know he has killed people.  I just know that he has done some very bad
things to other people who may or may not have deserved it.  Again, my dad
tells me to mind my own.
	My sister is Tina.  Short for Albertina.  She is 19.  She was named
after our great-great grandfather or something like that from Italy.  She
is about 5'9 and 120 lbs with bleach blonde hair and green eyes and a Long
Island beach tan.  She has all her hair tied up in a bump with hair spray
and all the product.  Tina is the one who got me shopping, along with my
mother, rest her soul.  My father likes that Tina is out of the way a lot
so he just throws money at her to get her out of the house.
	Then there's me.  Alessandro.  Alex for short.  Or Baby Alley, if
you're my idiot brother, Vinny.  I'm about the same height as Tina, around
5'9 and I weigh the same.  Maybe I weigh five or so pounds more.  I have
black hair and blue eyes and I have an olive complexion like my brother
Danny.  I have my own car, dad's old one.  A 2009 Range Rover Sport.  He
was going to give it to Tina, but she bought a Lexus.
	My family is the epitome of shady.
	My father is a mob boss.  He throws things at me and Tina to keep
our mouths shut.  My father has never wanted me apart of the business.  My
mother died in childbirth with me and he saw it in my eyes the day he saw
me that I was her spitting image.  He didn't want me, the baby of the
family, to have to be exposed to that element.  He plans on having Tina
marry one of the other boys in the social circle of my father's friends.
Even though I don't take part in the `family activities', I am obligated to
be loyal to my family no matter what and I totally understand that.
	He doesn't know what to do with me...
	You see, I'm gay.
	He doesn't want that kind of information to get out into the mob
world because it can make him look weak.  He loves me and I love him.
Business and family are two different things and I completely understand.
	It is the summer before the beginning of my junior year where our
journey starts...
	I was laying out in the sun working on my tan with my sister Tina
when she decided on a shopping trip.
	"Alex, wanna go to Nordstrom... I want a new dress for my date this
weekend..."
	"Alright, I could use a new outfit as well, Brandon just dumped
me."
	"Oh what was his problem? Did you tell Daddy?" She asks.
	"No. I didn't tell Dad, he's been at Danny's.  Remember what
happened last time I told Daddy?"
	"Yea. He got Vinny to kick his ass at Starbucks."
	"Pretty much... and I don't want Brandon having a hard time..."
	"What did he do...? You still haven't answered?! What did he say to
my twinky little brother huh?"
	"Oh come on..." I blush at being called twinky.  I take pride in my
appearance... smooth tanned defined body.
	"Spill it."
	"That dick... he cheated on me with that slut Leo! I was so pissed.
I wanted to rip his little balls off his perfect body!"
	"Whoa bro!? Let Vinny kill him..."
	"Tina..."
	"Oh sorry... Nevermind... I'll tell Daddy for you if you want."
	"Do we have to tell Dad?"
	"You know we do."
	"I know."
	My father was always very protective and supportive of me and my
life and all his children's lives.  Ever since my mother passed, he took on
two roles and has been a professional at them both for 16 years.  He's the
best dad anyone could ask for and when he sees one of kids hurting, another
person is going to pay.
	"Can we just go to the mall already...?" I ask.
	"Yea let's go, can we stop at Starbucks first?"
	"Shut up, Albertina..." She hates her full name. Can you see why?
	"Fucker."

	Later that night, my father returned from my brother Danny's
apartment in the city back to our brownstone in Brooklyn.  He was in his
den looking over paperwork and signing off on certain documents and paying
the family's cell phone bill when I knocked gently.
	"Daddy?"
	No answer.
	Knock knock. Louder this time.
	"Yes, Alex?"
	"Do you have a minute?"
	"For my youngest son, of course."
	I walk in to the den and close the door gently as it is 11:30 pm
and the house is quiet as my brother Vinny is in bed and Tina is out at the
clubs.  I'm dressed in my pajamas.  A simple plaid pair of pants with my
brother Danny's University oversized tee shirt.
	"Well you know Brandon?"
	"Yea, your boyfriend, I've met him plenty of times, what's the
matter? Is he in some sort of trouble? Does he need our help?"  He points
towards Vinny's bedroom.
	I shake my head no and tell him.
	"No, he's fine! Uhm.. he broke up with me.."
	"What! Why did he do that!?!"
	"Oh well, it was mutual, just growing apart, ya know?" I stand up,
thinking that I can just give him that and he will let it drop.
	"Bull shit. Sit down Alessandro." Fuck.
	"Dad its fine! Really!"
	"Tell me. You know that I have to know and if you don't tell me I
will find out and then it won't be a good day, for either you or Brandon!
Understand me, Alessandro?"  He is shouting at me now.
	"Well... Daddy..." Tears are starting to fall down my face.
Talking about this brings back so many bad memories and good ones too.
	"What is it son?" He speaks gentler now, trying to console my
breaking heart.  He gets up and kneels at my chair.  "Alex, tell me what
happened, we can sort it out..."
	"He cheated."
	"He did what..."
	"Cheated."
	"With?"
	"Leo Skyles."
	"The little trailer trash whore from Williamsburg?"
	"YES! FUCK!"
	"ALESSANDRO!? Don't get angry I am just getting names."
	"Why do you need the names, Daddy?"
	"You know why..."
	"Dad. Please don't?"
	"You know I have no choice."
	"I know."
	He walks to the intercom. Presses the button 2 down.
	"Vinny..."
	"Yea pop... I'm trynna sleep up here. What is it?"
	"Watch it boy, don't get an attitude. We gottan issue"
	"With?"
	"Brandon."
	"Bout time."
	"DADDY! STOP IT!" I yell.
	"No, Alex, its too late. He needs to learn not to mess with the
Gallo boys, especially the youngest and the most vulnerable."
	"Dad, I'm not vulnerable. Jesus."
	I get up from my chair and slam the door out of the office and run
up to my room and lay on my bed crying.  I hear Vinny knock on the door of
my room.
	"Alex, can I come in?"
	This was strange, Vinny never came into my room unless he needed
something.
	"Yea, what is it?"
	I feel him sit on the bed and lay next to me, just like when we
were children.
	"I can take it easy on him, but you know that I can't not hurt
him."
	"I know."
	"That bein' said, I need his address."


	To be continued.

	I know its short, but I feel as if that's a pretty good place to
leave off for now.  Please email me for more!! I would really like some
feedback. Its my second story! The first is Manhattan in the high school
section.  Check that out if you get a chance.  I don't really like it
though, but I might make an ending chapter to finish things up with that so
I can lift off with this. :) Thanks y'all!! manhattanstory@hotmail.com
