"WWWWWRRRRRRRRYYYYYYYYYYY!" Shouts Dio from the living room. He was playing one of the game from your Nintendo Switch. Your other console was broken and messed up. Dio and Giorno was playing Mortal Kombat. It seems Giorno was winning the fight.

You were at the kitchen, making soufflés for the three of you. You had finished submitting your assignments but you were not ready for Finals. It was a week away and you know Giorno or Dio would ask if you are ready for it. You like how both men would ask you about that. It seems out of character for Dio to do so but... you lowkey like it.

While the soufflés was baking in the oven, you clean the dishes. You wonder... how the hell did two fictional characters from a popular manga and have an anime adaptation, including having memes are in your world. In your apartment no less!

Although, you liked the interaction between both men. It seems the fanarts about Dio and Giorno were true. Their interactions brought a few smiles on your face and it help whenever your stress or feeling down. The one thing that you were grateful is their Stands. At least both of them could train each other. You would hear them, saying "Muda." on the roof top of your apartment. Definitely a good father and son bonding moment.

Another good bonding moment is where you bring them out to watch movies at night. Dio behave quite well. He didn't use his Stand or his abilities to harm you. Giorno had a soft spot for you. He won't say it out loud. So Dio knows that if he hurt you, he'll have to answer to his son and his Stand.

"Fatality!" The voice from the television broke you out from your trance. At the same time, the timer ding, signalling that the soufflés were ready.

"It seems I have win again, father." Giorno said, he place the controller down and stretch his arms. It has been hours since they played the game. It was fun, for him and Dio. He wonder why did a person like you acquired this game. From the moment he arrive in this place, he had learn a few things about you. It was nice to have a place to stay and to learn about this odd world he is in.

As for Dio, he wouldn't expect to have a son. When he appeared in the living room, he wanted to kill you and drank your blood. Right then and there. When he saw Giorno. He drop the need to kill you and question the male next to him. You had to explain to Dio and Giorno about each other. It seems Giorno has become the Don of Passione. Dio was proud on how his son have grown without his presence or guidance.

You brought the soufflés out from the oven and place them on the kitchen counter. "Soufflés ready!" You said, taking the oven mitts off your hands. "Be careful, it's still hot!" You then grabbed utensils and a few extra plates.

You were footsteps approaching the kitchen and there it was, the two men. You could hear their argument about the previous match they had. "Boys, boys. You can have a rematch after this. Now ease up and have some soufflés."

"Of course," Giorno nodded. He gave you a smile. "I hope it taste delicious." While he grabbed his soufflé. He kiss his cheek and went to the dining table.

You noticed how Dio watch the interaction and you tilt your head at him. "Oh yeah... you're a Vampire." You rubbed the back of your neck. "My bad..."

Dio reach out and took the soufflé. "I do wish to waste a meal that has made by you. Even though I desire blood, your meals... has made me not to forget my humanity." He then mumbled the last sentence in a low voice. "My humanity might be thrown away but at least I have you and Giorno."

"Something wrong, Dio?" You asked him. He blinked and shake his head. "Everything is alright, little one." He grab his plate and walk to his room. You raised an eyebrow and watch as he leave.

On your left, you hear Giorno's voice. "What's up with him?"

"I'm not so sure, Gio. I'm not sure..."

"Bella, how's your study for Finals?" Giorno had snuck up behind you. You practically jump in your seat and look over your shoulder. He was standing close to you.

Looking back to your notes, you place a hand on your chest. Be still my beating heart, you pray silently. "Giorno! Don't do that! And..." You hear him walking and take a seat on your right. "And where is Dio?"

He answered your question with a shrug. "He says he went out. Probably to have a meal or something." You stared at him. Giorno gave you a soft smile. You blink twice and he still had that smile.

"Enough of him, how are you and your studies?" He asked you, his eyes shifted to your notebooks that was lay on the table, pages were open. "I hope you did not watch videos or play with your phone while I was gone."

You scoffed, "Please. You took my phone and laptop away. Saying that its a distraction." You made air quotes while saying distraction to him. "I've made some progress and honestly... I think I'm ready for Finals."

Giorno watched you as you gave a soft smile. "Thanks Gio. I, uh, couldn't do it without you." This time he blinked twice. He cleared his throat. He felt a blush rising on his cheek but he wave it away. His Stand, Gold Experience has wrapped his arms around your shoulders. It seems that his Stand likes you.

"It-it's fine, bella." He tore his gaze away from your notebook and to the window. He saw the clock and his expression change when he read it. "Um, (Name)."

"Yes Gio?" You went back to studying.

His eyes never left the clock. "How long have you've been studying?"

"Hm..." You hummed, reading the notes. "A couple of hours. Why?"

"It's past midnight." Now you look at him. He took the chance to continue speaking. "You need to rest up before Finals. I'll handle my father. You don't have to wait for him."

"But—" Before you could start to make a sentence. He silenced your lips with a finger from his left hand. You knew that it would pointless to argue with you, especially in this time of night. It was late and he was right, you need your beauty sleep.

He watched your shoulder slumped forward. He withdrew his finger from you and ruffled your hair. "I know you'll do well in your Finals. I've seen how hardworking you are whenever you do your assignments."

"Even if I procrastinate to the last minute?"

He let out a chuckle and nod. "Yes, even if you procrastinate to the last minute." Giorno wonders if he could bring you back to his world. If he could. You would be able to meet his friends and might encounter some enemies. "You still obtained enough grades to pass your semester and I for once, is proud of you."

You couldn't help but to blush and shy away. With your parents who kept pressuring you to get wonderful grades, you never hear the word 'proud' from your parents mouth. Hearing it coming from Giorno, made your heart to skip a beat. It was nice a feeling. Plus, you smile to yourself. "Thanks Giorno."

"Your welcome, bella." He then did something else to cause your blush to increased tenfold. He kissed your forehead. "And now, get some rest amore. Having eye bags are terrible and I prefer to be not on you."

"Ri-right!" Your mind had become smushed from the affection that happen a few minutes ago. You gather your notebooks and went to your room.

• [ Next Day ] •

Giorno sat on the bench near the exam hall. He had brought a book to pass the time and while waiting for you to finishing your finals. Dio was back in the apartment, sleeping in his room. He was glad that you went to sleep so that he could deal with his father.

He still cannot believe that is his father. Jotaro Kujo had killed him in the past and now... seeing how Dio act around other people, around you and around him. It surprises him, even to this day. 

Hours passed and you went out of the hall. Your classmates wanted to discuss about the exam. You, on the other hand, was tired from memorising the notes. You lied to Giorno that you would slept early but you slept at 4 in the morning. Thanks to the power of makeup, Giorno did not notice how tired you were.

You took your phone out and message Giorno that you're Finals are done. He reply back by telling his location. He was happy that your semester has ended. Just by taking an exam.

"Hey GioGio." He looks up upon hearing your voice, placing a bookmark between the pages and shut the book. He smiled at you. "Hello (Name)."

"Ready to head back home?"

"Si."

Chapter Text

You push the shopping cart with two men trail behind you. "Remind me why we are doing this?" You said, letting out a yawn. The air conditioner from the supermarket gave you a slight chill. You're glad that you wore a hoodie.

Dio was reading the list that he and Giorno made. "Food is getting less in the kitchen and we both know that you adore food so very much." Giorno said, as he pat your shoulder.

Sure you love food but having a late grocery shopping was unexpected. Including Dio who suddenly joined in. "I know and you all know that I've been busy with my assignments and finals. I thought the both of you would do that. Doing grocery shopping." You kept pushing the shopping cart, looking around at the food that was in the shelves.

Dio starts to take the food that was on the list and place it in the shopping cart. "Besides, Giorno and I have been aiding you in your finances, little one." You raised an eyebrow at him.

"Finances?" You repeated the word that Dio said. You grab a bag of chips and place it in the cart. "What did you boys do?" Eyeing them with an intent gaze.

Giorno shrugged. "We've help you to pay the bills since father and I are staying in your apartment." He went to another shelf and inspect it. "I'm surprise you are paying it than your parents."

You place the cart there, earning a look from Dio and Giorno. "My parents are pricks. Always want to best for me and they expect that I can handle anything." You went up to Dio and read the list.

Humming, you let the two male to watch over the cart or drive it around. "But I can't handle anything." Not even two fictional characters. You sighed to yourself and went on to finish the list. 

When you head over to the dairy section, you saw Dio standing next to you. "Yes?" The tall male pat your head. Totally out of character from him.

"Apologies little one."

"Its... its fine, Dio." You grabbed the carton of milk. "Enough of this and let's finish this. I have a game to complete."

Dio mused internally to himself, what an interesting woman you are. Has he become soft in the vicinity of you and his son? Has he forgotten that he has thrown away his humanity?

Maybe he did become soft.

For once... he was glad that he has a second chance than being dead by Jotaro.

"Dio." You're voice cause him to look at you with a confused look. "Giorno's done. Let's meet him at the cashier."

He chuckled to himself and approached you. "Let's meet Giorno at the cashier."

Chapter Text

Walking with Dio and Giorno was great and all but when Dio saw Jotaro. Shit went down in a blink of an eye. One moment you were chatting with Giorno and the next moment, you were in Dio's arms or was it Dio standing behind you.

Jotaro and Joylne were there. Both of them are from Part 6. Alongside your friend who was confused about the whole situation. You gave them questioning looks and they reply back by gesturing to Jotaro and to you. Jolyne and Giorno watched how you and your friend interaction. Also, they noticed the Stands from their own respective father.

"Now, now, let's not get into another fight." You speak up, hoping that Dio and Jotaro won't fight. Again.

"Ye-yeah!" Your friend joined in. They, too, would not like a fight to happen in this evening. However, you were surprised that Jotaro and Jolyne is staying with them.

What is the universe doing with you and your friend? More importantly, what's its goal?!

Giorno saw Jotaro's Stand, Star Platinum and he noticed that his father's Stand, The World has appeared. "They are right. Let's not risk going into a battle." He said for he does not want to cause a scene right now. He was content on how peaceful their walk was. Correction; it was peaceful to have a walk with (Name).

Jotaro was glaring at Dio. (Name) gulped and patted Dio's cheek. "Di-Dio, you can, uh, put me down. We can head back home or watch a movie." He remained to be still. You sighed at this action and crossed your arms.

"Dio. Put me down." His intense stare at Jotaro was cut off by hearing your stern voice. Giorno nodded, "It's best you put her down, father. She might fight you." Hearing those words, he comply and place you back down.

As for his Stand, The World hovers behind you. He wrapped his arms around your shoulder, while doing so, he stares at Star Platinum. Jotaro blinked. Did Dio went soft?

Impossible.

There is no way that a Stand such as The World could do that. Let alone carry a human girl and did not harm her nor drank her blood.

Your friend cleared their throat, "Let's meet up later. Probably not tonight because it's getting late..." Joylne and Giorno nod at the suggestion. Both of them did not have the mood to fight each other. Only their father and their Stands. Four of them are fixated with each other.

"You're right." You then look over your shoulder and glare at Dio. "Maybe next time. Okay?"

The Vampire wanted to wipe that glare off your face. He wish he could but his son is watching him. There was a small thought that Giorno adores you. Dio closed his eyes and let out a sighed, "Fine. Next time."

This earned a scoff from Jotaro. Joylne look at her father and to your friend. "I'll see ya next time." She said, giving a slight punch to his shoulder. The man let out a "Gimme a break." before turning around and went the opposite way. Joylne and your friend followed him.

Which leaves you with Dio and Giorno. You clap your hands. It earned the attention from both males. "Right, listen here Dio. As much as I want to see you use your abilities but I do not want you to get hurt and all."

Dio scoffed, "And why is that little one?" Next thing he knows, you flicked his forehead. He would be mad and would kill you right then and there... but he doesn't do so. He just... accepted the flick. It wasn't that painful.

"Because I rather have you to be alive than dead. Even though you are a vampire but still! You get the point, you git!" Giorno watched in awe as you speak to his father that way. Internally, he was proud of you.

As for Dio, he was surprised by it. He was amused by your behaviour. "Very well then little one." He reach out and place a hand on top of your head. "I will not fight Jotaro unless he harmed you. Isn't that right, Giorno?"

The teen blink and gave a quick nod. "He's right. If you are harmed or injured, we will battle them."

"You Brandos are sure protective..." You sighed, shaking your head and arms still crossed.

Dio smiled. It was a faint smile. Blink, and you'll miss it. "Of course we are protective... of the things we adore and treasured."

"Lets go home!" You immediately look at the street across from you. A blush crept on your face. "I'm gonna watch Stranger Things!"

Dio and Giorno shared a look before letting out a chuckle.

"As you wish."

Chapter Text

"Dio, I didn't know that you were adorable as a kid." You pinch his cheeks, smiling with glee. The tall man, who was all Vampire and menacing has become into a child. Still menacing and had that look on his face. Dio was staring daggers at you.

Giorno explained that an enemy Stand caused him to become a kid. Both of them were heading out from the apartment and was heading to the rooftop, to practice. An enemy Stand caught them off guard and Giorno managed to defeat them.

Another thing surprised you. Enemy Stands. They are making their appearance and you wonder if Giorno's friends from Vento Auro are going to make an appearance. After all, the three of you have meet Jotaro and his daughter, Joylne.

You wonder, is your world colliding with their world? If so, will there be more characters coming into your world and make their appearance. "Let me go, (Name)." Dio's child like voice says. He has enough with your antics. He couldn't use his Stand because when he was a child, he did not have one.

"Alright, alright." You let his cheeks go. Dio rubbed his red cheeks. He was glad that was over. "Little one." Now it was your turn to call him that. It was a nickname that Dio called you. You were smaller than him and he was taller than you.

"You—" Before Dio could say anything, Giorno cuts in. "Now, now, that's enough." He stood between you and Dio. As much as he wants to see where this is going, he wanted to know how long this does affect his father.

You raised both hands up and took a step back. "If you need me, I'll be at the living room." You turn around and head over to the room, leaving Giorno with Dio.

"I didn't know that you wore earrings when you were a young boy." Giorno noticed it, on Dio's left ear.

The young boy raised an eyebrow at this. "(Name) notice this days ago and now you notice it?" He was right. Giorno did not notice it on the first day that he met Dio. In his adult form.

• • •

Yawning, you stretch your arms. Your console was being fix by a friend of yours. He stays at the same building as you but on a different floor. You were grateful of his help because fixing said console will take a lot of money to pay it. You're happy that he gave you a reasonable price to fix your console.

Dio walked in the living room and plopped himself on your lap. "Hug me." He ordered you, leaning his back to your chest. He has closed his eyes and was crossing his arms.

"Well, aren't you a needy mood." You say, placing your arms around his waist and hug him. "What change your mind to hang out with me?"

The boy didn't answer your question. You open your mouth to ask him some more questions but you close it. Maybe its best to leave it be, you thought. Dio took the remote and change whatever you are watching on Netflix to another show. The young boy decided to watch a movie with you.

He'll use this is an advantage, being a young boy has its perks. As an adult, you could not hug him. As a kid, you could hug him and give him some affections. This was his plan and he intend to use his time as a young boy to spend time with you.

• • •

"Hey Gio." You greeted the teen when he enter the living room. "We're watching Harry Potter, all of the movies. Wanna watch it with us?" He saw Dio, sitting on your lap, having a smug look on his face.

Oh how he envy his father for doing that. Giorno gave you a smile, "Sure thing tesoro." He made his way to the couch and sit on your right.

One thing that you didn't notice that Dio and Giorno are glaring at each other. Dio still have that smug look plastered on his face, as for Giorno, he couldn't believe that this was happening.

You and Giorno noticed that the sunlight did not harm or hurt him. His skin didn't burn up or was he aware of the sunlight beaming down on him. You shared a look with the teen.

After watching all the Harry Potter movies, Dio wanted to have a walk with you. Only you and him. Giorno is not allowed not to join in.

• • •

Walking with Dio, he has brought some attention from the girls. They were smitten by his appearance and they would try to flirt with him. You saw how it goes down.

"Apologies ladies but I have my own company." He said, giving them a smile. Even with that accent of his, it does add charm to woo others to his side. You had left to the coffee shop to buy your favourite drink and tea for him.

The young boy went up to you, he link his arm around yours. "This is my company." Dio leaned towards you. You look at him and then to the girls. You could feel their gaze towards you. The girls walk away from you but their gaze remained the same.

"What was that about Dio?" You gave him his tea. He took it and carefully drink it. He reply your question with a hum.

As the sun set in the sky, Dio enjoyed his time with you. He remembered being a child, living with the Joestar family in England. Adopted by George Joestar. How he loathe Jonathan Joestar and then, he acquire the Stone Mask, abandon his humanity to become a Vampire. So much have happened to him.

"Something on your mind, Dio?" Your voice made him his train of thought to be halted in its tracks. He tilt his head up and saw that you were looking at him, with a worried expression.

He assured you with a soft smile. "Everything is alright. I was, simply... daydreaming." He wouldn't admit that he like to see you, smirking at him.

"The great and almighty Dio is daydreaming?" You teased him. "What has become of the world right now?" You gave him a cheeky grin after giving him a smirk. You reach out and ruffled his hair.

"The world has nothing to do with this." Dio murmured, looking away as a faint blush appeared on his cheeks.

"Hm?"

"Nothing... Let's head back. Giorno might search for us."

"As you wish."

Feeling a little bold, you kiss his forehead. The blush deepened and his eyes widened by the sudden gesture from you.

Chapter Text

After the kid fiasco with Dio, he returned to his adult form after midnight has passed. Giorno was glad that his father did not do anything to you. However, he questioned the blush that was on his father's face. He refused to let you and Dio out from his sight.

So it leads to you, Giorno and Dio are watching Neon Genesis Evangelion on Netflix. You heard about this anime from Tumblr and decided to watch it. Dio watch it with you because his excuse was that he was bored. It's the afternoon. He should be asleep.

"So Dio..." You kept your eyes on the screen. "You're using Jonathan's body while you have your head. Does that mean Jonathan's blood and your blood are mixed together and are in Giorno's body?" This made you think about Giorno's parents. Especially about the father itself.

"Little one, I am using Jonathan's body. His Hamon abilities are powering my own abilities." He said, eyes shifting to you. His eyes stares at your neck. He could do it. Drink you dry. He quickly avert his eyes off your neck and back to the television screen. "What are you implying?"

You take the mug that has a warm tea in it and sips it. "I'm implying that Giorno has the blood of the Joestars and Brando in him. Which means that Jonathan and you are his dad." You sip your tea again. "Two dads."

Dio immediately stares at you as you calmly sips your tea. You were hiding your smirk from him. Giorno try to pay attention to the anime but the conversation that you and Dio are having was interesting to eavesdrop.

"Little one." Dio started, the anime soon became background noises for the conversation. "Be careful what you are saying because it might be your last word." He blinked and saw Gold Experience, hovering behind you. The Stand arms wrapped around your waist and he rested his chin on your left shoulder.

"Padre." Giorno has entered the conversation. The World made his appearance and stares at Gold Experience. Tension enveloped the living room. You sit still, not wanting to do anything next to cause a fight between the two men.

Giorno lets his Stand to protect you from The World. Both Stands have taken a liking to you. They desire not to hurt you since their Users wanted to fight each other. Their Stands look at each other. Same goes for their Users.

Having enough of the tension, you cleared your throat, grabbing their attention. "That's enough!" Their Stands are still there and if only you could see them. If you did, you would be shock on how Giorno's Stand is acting around you.

You wanted to get up from the couch and head to your room. You really want to be away from all of this.

Dio and Giorno saw a red dart on your neck when you got up from the couch. Since Dio was close to you, he quickly caught you in his arm. He saw how your eyes are closing, ever so slowly. Giorno head out to catch the enemy. If there was poison in the dart, he would have to create an antidote for the poison. He will not loose you from a mere poison.

"Dio..." He listened to your pulse, it was getting weaker by the minute. He felt your warmth, slowly disappearing. He couldn't bear to lose you. From all the kindness that you show him, he has started to tolerate you.

"Stay with me, (Name). Please... for me."

That was the last thing you heard before slipping into consciousness.

• • •

You woke up in a room that you did not recognise. The decor looks like you are back in the Victorian era. "Wait a minute..." You sat up, from lying down on the bed. You studied the room and it does looks like it. You have watch a few movies about the Victorian era and you know how it works. Somewhat, not all.

You hear something fumbling with the door knob. Looking around you search for a weapon to protect yourself because self defence is important. The fumbling stop and the door burst open, revealing Jonathan Joestar.

In the flesh and not dead.

"Wha...? How?" You were having problems on creating a sentence. This has got to be another dream. A dream within a dream.

The gentleman noticed your problem and he rubbed the back of his neck. "I apologise, miss."

Gah! The level of gentleman is overpowering you. Is as if a bright light is shining towards you. You shield your face from the shining light. "It-Its alright, Jo— I mean, Mister Joestar."

Jonathan approach you, before he could take a step. He cleared his throat. "May I approach you?"

If there was an arrow, you could have been shot right now. Due to how nice Jonathan is. "Ye-yes." You say, placing a hand on your chest. Be still my beating heart, you prayed.

He gave you another smile and you swear you saw a halo on top of his head. Jonathan took a chair and place it next to the bed. "Thank you, miss."

"Your welcome and uh..." You cleared your throat. "Do you know who I am because I know who you are." You say with the most serious face that you could muster.

Jonathan nodded, "Yes I do know who you are, Miss (Full name)." He then look down, staring at his hands. He was playing with them. "First of all, I want to thank you for watching over Dio for me. I know that he is a troublemaker and a bad seed when he was a kid but what lies in the past, stays in the past."

You couldn't believe that you are hearing this. You decided to let Jonathan to continue. "As for Giorno, he is a Joestar but he is a Brando. He is a mixture of both of them. You are right for saying that I am his father..."

"But?"

He looks up and his smile, it wasn't cheerful. It has a sadness within it. "But," Jonathan added. "As for Giorno, I see both of Dio and I within him. I do hope that he does wonders for the Joestars family line. The family line must not disappear for I am proud of my descendants. They've done well in the world of the living."

Jonathan lean towards you and wrapped his arms around your body, engulfing you in a bear hug. "I wish I could meet Giorno and tell him how proud I am."

Automatically, you return the hug. "I'll tell him that. You have my word, Jonathan."

"Thank you, (Name)." He lean back and kiss your forehead. "It's time to wake up now." Jonathan gave you one last smile as you close your eyes.

• • •

"Gah!" You shouted as you sat upright. You are back in the living room, with Dio and Giorno. You were in Dio's arm. "Wha-what happen?!" The expression on their face changed from worry to relief. The antidote worked and both of them are glad that you are back with them.

Giorno answered your question, "An assassin shot a poison dart on your neck, tesoro. Father stayed behind to watch over you while I chased the assassin." You look at Dio. He stayed behind... to watch over you. In your head, you said to yourself; He cares for me. "I found the assassin, fought and win the fight. I found an antidote in the pockets of the assassin."

You closed your eyes and exhale. You were so close to death. Without them, you wouldn't be alive. You open your eyes, "Thank you Giorno." And you look over to Dio. "And you too Dio, thanks for staying."

Dio huffed, "Need I remind you little one, that we Brando, are protective of the things we adore and treasure." You're not sure if he is acting like a Tsundere or he acts like he does not have feelings for you.

For once, Giorno agreed with his father. "That's right." He lean down and kiss your left cheek. This prompt Dio to kiss your right cheek.

This is going to be a long night of you getting flustered by the two male.

Chapter Text

Ever since that night of almost getting killed by an assassin, Dio and Giorno are getting protective over you whenever you head out from the apartment. Giorno would linger in your university campus, so that the assassin does not create any moves in harming you. He would accompany you whenever you walk around the city.

As for Dio, he would stay in your room when you are sleeping. He does went out to grab a few pints of blood before entering your room. When Dio is out from the apartment, Giorno would stay with you. Both of them truly cares about you and your safety. They know that you do not have a Stand. If you're staying a few more hours at the campus and it reach nighttime, Dio will be there. He will scout around the place for any unusual individuals.

"Guys... I appreciate the protection and the bodyguard but have you notice the three of us looks like a family." You are with Dio and Giorno at one of your favourite cafe. The sun has set and it was ideal for Dio to come out from the apartment, to meet up with you and Giorno after you had a meeting with your group for a group assignment. 

Giorno was sipping his latte. "How does that work?" He said, placing the cup on the saucer. "Looking like a family, tesoro." 

"Uhh..." You started, your hands are wrapped around the parfait cup. It was cold to the touch and you ordered your favourite parfait. "Dio is taller than you and I. Technically he's your dad but others thought that I am your mother and you're my son. Whenever we walk around, I hear others commenting on that we look like a happy family." You explained to them. Dio lets out a hum. 

He was resting his chin on his knuckles, eyes staring at you. "It does make sense." 

"It-it does?!" Your grip around the cup tightened. Giorno had think about it and nod as well, agreeing with Dio. 

"We do look like a family." The teen shifted his gaze from the beverage towards you, he gave you a soft smile. "I honestly don't mind. When word find out about father and I, they will target us and we can defeat them with ease." So... it's a strategy to lure the assassins out? That's kinda sad, you noted as you take a bite of your parfait. 

Dio was still staring at you. "Then we'll have to buy a ring, to show that you are taken. I dislike seeing other people talking to with devious intent in their eyes." His eyes takes a short glance at the ring finger on your left hand. "Giorno and I will purchase the ring. Do not fret, our Stands will be your bodyguard." 

Speaking about Stands, The World and Gold Experience are standing on your left and right side. They wanted to protect you from harm and danger. If anything goes awry, they might blame themselves for not doing a great job on protecting you. 

"That's reassuring to hear." You already know how they look like but you low-key wanted to see them in real life. To touch them, to feel their warmth and hear their voice. 

"It is." Giorno had turn a napkin into a red rose. He then place the flower on top of your left ear. "Our Stands are strong." You watched in awe on how Giorno did that. It still mesmerise you whenever he does that. It never gets old to see it in action. 

From an outsider perspective, the three of you does look like a family. Dio as the father, you as the mother and Giorno as the child. If others see you with Dio, they'll think that he is your boyfriend. Same goes to Giorno if you walk without Dio, not that he is your boyfriend but as guy-friend. His age makes sense due to your age, for you are older than him. He respected his elders and you are happy to see him helping the elderly. 

Both Stand Users will not openly say their Stands abilities in public. Who knows if someone is hearing their conversation and is currently recording it as well. Dio and Giorno have to be cautious when they are out in public with you. They have encounter enemy Stands, Jotaro Kujo and his daughter. They will never know if they will encounter others from other Parts of the manga, anime and/or game. 

"When are you going to buy the ring, Dio?" You asked the Vampire. "Do you have enough money to purchase it?" You asked again, taking another bite of the parfait and munch happily. 

The blonde Vampire replied both of your questions,  "Tomorrow evening and yes, little one. I do have enough money to purchase it. Do not worry, for I, Dio, will obtained it." 

There he is, that Dio you missed. "Alrighty, after this, we are heading back home." You call for the waiter or waitress, to ask for the check. 

"Sounds wonderful, tesoro."

"Where did you get that ring, (Name)?" You and your friend was at their apartment, currently chilling at their room. Jotaro and Joylne was out from the building. Walking around the place, they said. The ring on your finger twinkle underneath the sunlight.

"It's a long a story," You confessed, not sure if they would want to listen to the entire reason on why you are wearing it.

Their eyes gleamed with curiosity. They leaned forward and had their face supported by their hands. "We have enough time for a story. Please tell me? Pretty please?" You took a deep breath and tell them the story behind why you are wearing the ring.

"What?! An assassin try to kill you?!" You've read the expression on their face as you tell them the story. "You, Dio and Giorno do look like a family.... It would be cute though..."

You blushed softly, "Do we actually look like a family to you? Dio is a Vampire and he's like... a thousand years old." You try to imagine it, married to Dio and Giorno become your stepson. You like both of them. Both of them did so much in your life and without them, your life will always be the same.

"Oh? Are you blushing at the thought of that?" Your friend held a smirk on their lips. There was a mischievous glint in their eyes. "Do you like them so much? Do you like hearing their accents?"

You place a hand on their face, that doesn't stop them to keep smirking. "I'll take that as a yes. Living with two attractive men who cares about you. That's heaven, (Name)."

"Oh shush. What about you and Jotaro, hm?" You decided to bite back. Two can play at the game, you mused. It was worth it to see your friend flustered and be a blushing mess. Their smirk was wipe off from their face. "Hm?" You poke their cheek.

"Alright, alright, alright." They slap your hand away and pouts. Just because they slap your hand away, doesn't mean that you won't stop poking their cheek.

Your friend pouts even more. "What if I like Joylne? I mean, she is badass and attractive. Same goes to Jotaro."

Ah, I see. "You and I are on the same boat, bud." You retract your hand and place them on the bed. "Plus... have you seen other Stand Users? Like the ones from their world."

They shake their head. It was a no. You clicked your tongue in an annoyance. "Since I have Giorno, I thought I could meet the rest of his gang. Even the La Squarda!"

Your friend's head crossed their arms and began to think aloud. "Jotaro and Joylne are staying with me... We might see the Stardust Crusaders and the others from Diamond is Unbreakable."

"Wait... what if Yoshikage Kira is here too?" Both of you shiver at the thought at that. That hand fetish serial killer. His theme song are great and its somehow, interesting to hear.

Your friend stare at you. "If he's here, shouldn't there be a news about killings happening around the city?" They've made a good point. You have not watch news from the television nor listen to the news from the radio.

"Is it possible?" You wonder about some other characters. "To see Speedwagon, the Zeppelis and Young Joseph as well?" You changed the topic in the conversation. You rather not think about Kira or anyone dangerous.

Your friend let out a hum, they were thinking about it. "They could make their appearance here but they might stay with someone else." Then they lay on their bed, making a low groan. "What about the Pillar Men?"

"Oh shit! I forgot about them."

"Yeah. Them." Your friend eyed you. Their gaze shifted to the ceiling, staring at it. "You and I don't know if Dio still have the Stone Mask."

"That's true... he hasn't shown it to me." You haven't inspect his room or clean his room. Dio prefer that you and Giorno stay away from his room. No matter what.

You let them to continue speaking. "We have not see the Red Stone of Aja annndddd..." They trailed off, earning your attention.

"And?" You raised an eyebrow at them. "And what?"

The mischievous smirk has returned to their face once more. "And when are you gonna change your last name to Brando?" You took a pillow — that was conveniently nearby — and chuck it at them.

"I'm going home." You got up from the bed and fished out your phone, messaging Giorno that you are heading out. "I'll see you next time and remember, be safe."

Your friend sat up, they place the pillow on their lap. "I know, I know. You'll be safe too."

And with that, you left the apartment. That was nice, you thought to yourself. Visiting your friend after the events that happened to you. You walk out of the lift and saw Giorno at the couch, at the lobby. He saw you and stood up.

"How was your friend?" He asked you when you approached him. You can hear their voice in your head saying; "You like them, don't you?"

"They were great." You gave him a smile. "Always the same person I knew." You lied to yourself that you don't have feelings for Dio and Giorno.

Giorno smile softly. "Wonderful. Shall we head back home? I hear father is cooking something for dinner." You link your arm with his. "We shall." The tip of his ears are getting red. He immediately try to shake that feeling off.

"Dio is cooking something for us? That's a first." You and Giorno step out of the building.

The teen merely chuckled. "Indeed, tesoro. I wonder what is father up to." He couldn't help but to think about it. Hopefully Dio is good at cooking or else you and Giorno have the save the kitchen from getting burned down. Or, get takeouts instead if both of you are feeling lazy to cook.

"So Giorno..." You started a conversation with the teenage. You and him were playing Mario Kart on the Nintendo Switch. Both of you were sitting on the couch and eyes were glued to the screen of the television. He was in the lead and you were in third place. You were trying your very best to get in second place or the first place. There is no way in hell you will get second place in this race.

"Yes, tesoro?" He reply back. Giorno knew what you were up to as he takes a short glance at the other side of the screen. He would not lose to you and he'll intend to stay in first place for the rest of the race. "Something is on your mind?" He asked once more.

You flinched when one of the characters got a blue shell. "Can you do the 'wry' thing?" It was a stupid question. You already knew the answer because you have read the manga and watched the anime. In your head, your other self is beating you for asking that silly question. The other other self of you, wanted to hear it in real life. "'Cause y'know, Dio can do it."

Giorno had done it before. "Of course I can." He doesn't mind to do it for you. If you ask him to do it.

"Then do it." You say, avoiding the blue shell from the character that was in front of you. You were so close with Giorno's character. There was an opening for you to head over to the first place. You quickly took the chance and race past Giorno's character. Immediately, you manoeuvre to where his character is and head to the finish line.

"Wwwrrrrryyyyyyy!?!" What a surprised Wry than a battle Wry, you noted as you listened to Giorno who was making the sound. Like Father, like Son. You smile to yourself, internally as the last lap was the last of all, making it as a victory if you stay in the lead.

"Surprised Gio?" You blocked him as he try to drive past you. You even got one of the power ups and it was a banana skin. You held back a smirk as you devise a plan to use the banana skin.

The male nodded, "Very tesoro." He doesn't know what you are planning but he has a strategy to head back into first place.

Dio entered the apartment through the window. "Do you know what time it is?" He asked the both of you — who was lounging on the couch, you are doing a quest in Warframe and Giorno is laying his head on your lap.

The clock on the wall read 12:15am. You and Giorno look at each other before open your mouth to say, "Wwwwwrrrrrrryyyyyyy..." Both of you had a smug look on your face after saying that.

Dio blinked. Once, twice and thrice. Is he hearing things? Did he hear what you and Giorno had just said? Has he gone mental— well no, he has not.

Not yet.

"Where did you learn that?" He asked you.

You answer his question with a "From Gio."

Dio ask Giorno with the same question he has asked you. His son reply back, "I'm not sure. Somehow, I obtained it by defeating an enemy Stand User by merciless punching them until they are dead."

You swear you saw a tear escaped from one of Dio's eyes. You blink and the tear you saw, was gone. Dio must have used The World on that, you thought as you sat upright. You patted the space that was on your left side. "Sit with us."

Dio liked how the ring look on your finger. If it was official, he wouldn't mind you to go into his arms and gave him a kiss. He look over and stare at Giorno, who was on your lap. How he wished he was laying his head on your lap instead of his son. He went to the empty space on the couch and sat down.

"What are you playing, little one?" He crossed his leg and rest his head on your shoulder. His hair was tickling your cheek.

"A game," You answer him and divert your attention from Dio's hair to your game. You were doing a simple mission, just to level up your Warframe. You've done the rest of the quest in the game so you decided to level up one of your Warframes.

Giorno has his attention to the game than you and Dio. With the two males who are close to you, you liked the proximity from both of them. The World appears and rest his head on your other shoulder. As for Gold Experience, he sat on the floor, resting his back on your legs. You are fully guarded by the Stands and their Users. No one can harm you know.

The assassin who saw the Stands and their Users that are quite close to you, made an annoyed "Tch." He put away his binoculars and grabbed his burner phone, sending a message to his boss. It says: "The girl is being protected by them. What to do next?" He then sit on the rooftop, lighting a cigarette with a lighter.

Few minutes later, the phone vibrated. A message can be seen on the screen and it was from an unknown number. He unlock the screen and read it: "Wait for an opening to strike her down."

"You got it." The assassin left his post and his use his Stand, to step into the shadows.

"I'm home!" You enter the apartment, taking your shoes off and place the key on the counter. The door automatically shut itself. Silence was in the apartment. You remember Giorno taking the lead to enter the apartment and now... you don't see him. 

"Strange..." You went to the living room, to see if they were there. Walking towards the room, there were no voices and once you enter the room, they were not there. Only two cats. 

Cats? You remember that you don't own cats but you have two housemates. The two cats were on the couch, they somehow look familiar. One was smaller than the other, who was bigger than the small cat. They share the same fur colour. The small cat was the same hairstyle as Giorno... 

"Wait a minute!" Your brain finally clicked. "Dio?! Giorno?!" The cats meow at you. Probably thanking you or maybe that was Giorno and Dio is probably insulting you for being slow. 

You kneel down in front of couch, staring at them. "How did this— ah! Must be the work of an enemy Stand." You reach out and pet Giorno. The little cat purrs. "You guys are fluffy." Cat Giorno purrs even more. 

Cat Dio nudge his head on your head, asking for pets as well. "Even the great and almighty Dio is asking for pets?" A wrrryyy was your answer. "Alright, alright, here's your pets." 

You hear a soft "Wrryyy." From Cat Dio. 

• • • 

Sitting on the couch with two cats resting on you. Dio was sitting around your neck, rubbing his face on your shoulder and Giorno was on your lap. Both cats lets out a small "Wrryyy." Inside, you are dying from cuteness from these two cats. 

Thank you Enemy Stand for making them look adorable as cats. You silently close your eyes and smile. This was too much for your poor heart to handle. This level of cuteness will be the death of you. 

You fished out your phone that was in your pocket and try to take photos with Dio and Giorno. The first one to take was Dio. He was lounging around your neck and you secretly take a photo of him. 

Giorno stirred and lay on his back. He saw that you were holding your phone out and taking pictures of you and Dio. It was mostly Dio because no one can resist his fluffy fur. The small cat let out a sad "Wrryy." You look down and saw Giorno, he wants your attention. 

"Yes GioGio?" You scratch the top of his head and smile upon hearing the purrs. They are truly adorable and this could be a lazy day for the three of you. Glancing at the clock, it read that it was 6.30pm. Dio placed a paw on your cheek. His toebeans was soft and you felt your soul has left your body. 

The Stands, has become cats as well. The World has placed himself on your head and Gold Experience rubbed his head on your leg. You couldn't see them but you can feel it. 

Their weight and their touch. 

"Hey guys." You had an idea. Both cats look at you. Four, if you include the Stands. It is both brilliant and idiotic. "Wanna have a nap together?" 

Something snap within the two cats. Dio got off your neck and went to room, followed by Giorno. Their Stands? They have not left your side. You eyed Giorno's tail. It was fluffy and soft when you brush it. 

You got up from the couch and went to the room. When you enter, the two cats are... doing something to the blanket. Was it a cat instinct to put two paws and they look like they are making bread. You never wonder why cats do this. 

Is it to make the bed much more comfy? Perhaps. 

You look over your shoulder, making sure that you have turn the television off. Lights too. Once you are satisfied, you close the door and the curtains before climbing into bed. Dio lay on the right side of the pillow, you could hear his soft purrs. Giorno was on the left side of the pillow, he was rubbing his face on said pillow. 

The World lay next to your feet. His tail swishing by the fabric of the blanket. Gold Experience hop on the bed. He went his way to the lay on your side, that faces the window. Both cats are keeping watch of your form.

"Goodnight Dio, Giorno." You place a kiss on top of their head. Soft 'Wrryy' was your answer. "You guys are so cute." You close your eyes and went off to sleep.

In the morning, the two male who had become cats, have returned to their normal form. Dio was hugging your waist, his face was close to your neck and Giorno, the young man was close to your chest, he was holding one of your hand. Your legs are tangled with his, although, his hair was a mess. It somehow brush the skin of your collarbone. The World and Gold Experience are resting near your ankles. They might be huge but they do know how to be comfortable with the person that their User adores. 

The sunlight didn't enter the room. It was blocked by the curtains but there are a few who managed to take a few peeks of the room. The apartment was peaceful and quiet while outside of the building was the hustling and bustling of the vehicles. Sirens could be heard from afar. A daily life in the city. 

You slowly wake up, unaware of the situation that you are in. Your eyes fluttered open and the first thing you see was Giorno's face. Immediately your face burst into a thousand shades of red that it could rival a cherry. You couldn't even move. It was like you are sandwich between two men. One is buff and the other has a slim figure. 

You freezes when you felt that you are holding Giorno's hand and you took noticed of Dio's arms around your waist. Dio was even more closer than his son. How did this even happen to you? There were cats at first then they revert to their original form. 

The Enemy Stand User must have been defeated. Either its by Jotaro or by someone else. Maybe by Kakyoin, Polnareff? Who knows? It could be anyone. 

You opted to stay in this position, hoping to stay like this. Just for once. This was a rare opportunity to be in this position so you were grateful about being stuck in this position between Dio and Giorno. 

With a smile on your face, you close you eyes. This could be a lazy day for the three of you.
