Max was supposed to be here too but he's down with cold and a stomach bug. Poor thing. I'll go see him after school.

Anyways,

Romeo guided me towards the office. Once inside, we saw a sweet looking middle aged lady sitting on the desk. She looked up and gave me a bright smile which I of course returned.

When she looked behind me, he smile faltered a little.

Romeo.

I pinched him and gave him a look. A look that said, 'be nice or I will hit you.'

He huffed but gave her a smile that looked more like a grimace. I guess that's all She's getting from him.

"Hi! I'm Mrs Summers. How can I help you sweetheart?" She nicely and cheerfully asked.

"Hi Mrs Summers! I'm Angelina Rossi. It's my first day here, so I need schedule." I smiled back and answered with just as much enthusiasm.

This seemed to brighten her mood.

Romeo's phone rang. "Hey bubs I'll just go take this outside okay?" I nodded. He kissed my head and went out to receive his call.

"You know, I'm glad you're not like your brothers. They're nice young men, but they do not know how to be polite." She giggled and I laugh with her.

I honestly did not like what she said but I understand she didn't say that with any bad intentions

"Oh I know Mrs Summers. They're actually good guys if you see past their huge egos" I smiled at her.

She genuinely smiled back and handed me my schedule, locker number and it's combination.

I walked out, only to see Ace, Roman and Aaron walking in. I quickly went over to Romeo before they could see me. I was honestly not in the mood to see Ace right now. What he said, cut me deep. That shit hurt.

I mean, naïve and stupid? Really?

It's not just about those words he said. It about how he's basically telling me how I trust anyone. I mean I had just told him I don't trust easy. How could he just talk to me like that.

I noticed how he bonded with Aaron and Roman over that week. I didn't say shit to him. I didn't tell him how he was always with them. I didn't tell him how he didn't talk to me that much either.

Most importantly, I kept my cool while he kept yelling at me.

"Hey...do you have your schedule?" Romeo asked me once he saw I was already standing beside him.

"Yeah. Let's go." I said.

"But don't you want to wait for Ace?" He furrowed his brows in confusion.

"No Romeo. I'm sure Ace will do just fine by himself. He's a big kid now. Besides, Roman and Aaron are there to help him. He doesn't need me. Now can we please go?" I said, getting a bit frustrated.

"Okay okay." He raised his hands in surrender.

He held my hand in his, and started walking towards my locker. Everyone was staring at us. Especially at our intertwined hands.

"Are y'all popular here?" I asked him. He chuckled and nodded, ruffling my hair up.

Gosh why does he like ruffling my hair so much?

"Hey! Romeo! Angie! Wait!" Roman yelled. Oh come on!

We stopped and waited for them to catch up to us.

"Hey Angie!" Aaron kissed my head.

"Whaaaat?" I asked, bored.

"Damn what's up with you baby sis? Why are you so pissy today?" Roman asked me.

"I just am." I huffed.

"So! You excited for your first day?" Roman asked, rubbing his palms together.

"Roman, would you be excited if you had to spend 5-6 hours in hell we call school?" I deadpanned.

"No...?" He frowned.

"There you have your answer then." I gave him a sarcastic smile.

"Anyway, have a nice day y'all." I said and gave Roman and Aaron a hug. I did not even look at Ace. I grabbed Romeo's arm and dragged him away.

I found my locker thanks to Romeo, I put my book bag inside and grabbed a textbook for the first period, which was English with Mr Smith.

"Okay so I have English first." I looked up at Romeo. He nodded.

"Let's go." He showed me to my classroom and said he would wait outside for me after.

I went in and settled down on  a bench in the far back, near the window.

It's lunch. I've managed to make four friends. Two boys and two girls.

Turns out, Ace and I have each and every class together except math. Thank the lord for that. He didn't even try to talk to me all day.

Fine then, if he doesn't want to try, I won't either.

I walked into the cafeteria, talking to Isabelle, one of the girls I'm now friends with.

"So what do you want to join? Cheerleading, swim team, volleyball, there's basketball too! Girls can join, but no one plays because the boys are too brutal." She rambled.

I already know what I'm going to do. I smirked.

"What? What's with the face?" She asked.

"I know what I'm going to do." I smirked at her.

Her eyes widened in horror. "Girl. Please tell me you're not going to go play basketball. Please." She pleaded.

"Why yes I am." I giggled.

I am good at many sports, but basketball is my absolute favourite. While I'm flexible too, cheerleading is not my thing as I'm not interested in hanging out with those barbies people have been talking about.

Seriously, why do high schools have such stereotypes?

Some of them are really nice but the cheer head and her friend, Mila, is a bitch. You can guess who the cheer head is.

BRITTNEY.

JUST GREAT.

"Why? Are you trying to break your own bones?" She asked in complete horror as we sat down on the table where the rest of our friends will soon arrive.

"Nah girl. I've played basketball before don't worry" I laughed.

"Okay just don't get injured." She chided.

You see, the twins, Jared and Isabelle are the oldest of our group. They're 14, then came Mia, she's 14 too but she's two months younger than Isabelle and Jared. Then it was Jensen, he's 13 but he's like, four months older than me then it's little ole me.

So I'm basically the youngest of the group.

I've also learned Isabelle is like,the mom of the group.

"Hey guys!" Jared and Jensen greeted us together as they ruffled our hair and took a seat. Then Mia finally arrived and sat beside me.

So I was sitting between Mia and Jensen, and Isabelle was sitting on the opposite side with Jared beside her.

"Hey!" I greeted them back.

"You guys won't believe this. I heard THE Romeo Rossi was showing a freshman around, and him and his brothers, Roman and Aaron, kissed her ON THE head, and gave her a hug! There's also a new hot boy that enrolled here today!" Mia gushed.

Ew my twin is not hot.

"Yeah, I saw the new boy. He's such a hottie I swear...." Isabelle fanned herself.

Jared smacked her on the back of her head which made her whine.

"Guys can you like, stop talking about him like that?" I cringed.

"Yes can we?! He's so rude and cocky I swear." Jensen scoffed.

"Oh hush. Why Angelina? You like him or something? Oh my god is he your boyfriend?!" Mia screeched as all their heads snapped to me.

Jared looked a bit mad.

I gagged.

"Ew ew ew no! He's my twin!" I yelled, totally disgusted.

"You're telling me, that hot rude hunk is your twin?" Isabelle asked.

I nodded.

"Damn you guys got good genes" Mia gushed.

"I can't believe this. He's an asshole! You on the other hand, are nice and friendly!" Jared gaped at me.

"He's not so bad guys. He's actually nice." I waved them off.

We may have had an altercation, but I wasn't going to badmouth my own twin.

I ain't a lowlife.

"Uh...guys? Why are the Rossi brothers coming here? I can understand why the new guy is, but the Rossi brothers...?" I groaned.

I know Romeo won't embarrass me like that but Roman and Aaron definitely would. Right on cue, I felt two arms drape around me and Jared and Jensen shot up in alarm.

Bro why?

"Hey there Angie!" Roman enthusiastically yelled in my ear.

"What Roman?" I sighed. I turned around and gave Romeo a look but he was too busy glaring at Jared and Jensen.

"How was your first day?" Aaron cooed.

"Great. I made friends as you can see, now kindly get away before I call Marco or gramps." I warned as they gulped.

"Do we have to?" Roman whined and I whipped my phone out, ready to call Marco.

"Fine fine we're going!" Aaron whined.

"Seriously though, did anyone bother you?" Roman asked, now very serious.

I gave him a smile and a hug. "No Romi. No one bothered me. Even if they do, I can take care of myself." He nodded, looking satisfied.

"Are you sure?" Ace asked.

I scoffed.

"Can you guys go please? We'll talk later." Aaron nodded and kissed my head.

"Okay Angie. Take care." I nodded and they walked away, dragging Ace with them.

Romeo was still having an intense glaring contest with Jared and Jensen so I'm pretty sure they didn't hear a word of what we talked.

Mia and Isabelle are just gaping at me.

I went up to Romeo and shook him.

"What are you doing Lina, get away from him!" Jared yelled.

This made Romeo mad. The vein in his neck was now popping out.

"Calm down Rome he doesn't know." I softly said so no one heard as I tried to a calm him down.

"Lili get away from him he can hurt you." Jensen calmly said.

I gave him a look of disbelief. Why would my older brother hurt me?

"Guys wait a minute." I said and hugged Romeo, trying to calm him down. He's violent I know, but he would never hurt me.

I know my friends' comments hurt him too.

"Bubby I know you will never hurt me. Can you please calm down?" I whispered.

I felt him rub my head and I knew he'd calmed down.

I pulled away and turned to my friends, holding my big brother's hand in mine.

Giving them a bright smile, I said,

"Guys, meet my older brother, Romeo Rossi."

___________

Alright we wanna make some things clear.

Now we're very grateful that y'all trust us so much that you let the fight between Ace and Angelina slide.

This is more of a filler chapter cause We wanted y'all to see just how much Angelina affects Romeo and how she's gotten close to him.

We're pretty sure you're all going to hate us for the next few chapters and we're sorry for that.

Heck y'all might start loving Romeo and maybe place him in the list where Vince and Max are. Or maybe y'all might get mad at Angelina cause you're about to see her stubbornness at its finest.

Just bear with us please.

Also, we're sorry if you find any mistakes as it's 6:20 in the morning and we are barely alive because we have been up all night.

We hope you enjoyed!

We love y'all!

Angel and Angelo~
