Darkness. It was all I could feel, it was all I could see. It had consumed me and embraced me like a soul hungry entity.
I could hear voices in my head. But I couldn't make out what they were actually saying.
All of a sudden, the darkness disappeared and I was back into my old room, at the house in which we lived with Audrey and Dale. Our first stepfather.
It wasn't a basement or an attic. No. It was a bedroom which I shared with Ace.
But wasn't I with my dad and my brothers?
Did they finally realize they didn't want me? Did they finally decide to keep Ace and get rid of me once and for all?
Hm. What can I even expect from them all? After all, for them, I was just a burden, a slut, a whore who they shouldn't have taken in.
Ace betrayed me too.
I was now having an internal battle with myself.
Why did you save him then? You could've just let him die.
I couldn't do that. He was my twin. My other half. He was actually wanted by my family. Not me. I did them all a favor by saving him and removing the burden that I am, from their family.
What about Romeo? Marco? Your gramps? Vince? Max? Your cousins? What about grandpa, your other uncles and cousins?
I...I don't know....all that went through my head at that time was to just save my twin.
Stop being so kind. Your kindness always turns out to be your weakness. You love people who don't even care. Why? Why not just let them be and live your life with the people who ACTUALLY care about you and that is certainly not the Rossi's or your twin. Except maybe Romeo and River.
Who's River? .....wait. RIRI! I remember now!
My thoughts were cut off as the door slammed open, only to reveal Dale and Audrey. They were drunk again. There was some white stuff below their nose.
This is a fucking dream not reality.
So they were high too huh?
Dale stumbled towards me.
"Hey babe, look who's back." He snickered at my mother.
Bitch.
"Guess your daddy and brothers didn't want you huh?" She laughed.
I sucked in a sharp breath.
"Hm....I always knew you were a burden. A bitch. A worthless whore." Dale snickered at my mother dearest's words.
Bitch I know my worth thank you very much.
"And you aren't?" I finally spoke up.
Their faces contorted into a confused expression.
"What?" She asked.
"A worthless bitch, I mean. Aren't you a worthless bitch too? Like, your ex husband hates you, your children hate you,I'm positive this bitch of a husband you have here, is cheating on you too. Steve didn't want you either. He just wanted a daughter and took pity on you, so he took you in with us." I snickered as I saw her face pale, I beat her at her own game.
I knew better than to believe her false words and I knew how to beat her with her own words.
Her face contorted into an ugly sneer. She opened her mouth and screamed out loud.
Then suddenly, the scene changed to my other bedroom, the one at the Rossi Estate.
I was sitting on my Vanity, brushing my hair while Ace sat on my bed.
"You're so naïve, Angelina. You thought I love you? You thought our dad loves you? You thought our brothers, our cousins, our grandpa loves you? No they don't. And they will never love you, twinny. You're just a slut. A burden." He laughed.
My eyes welled up. I could handle Audrey's insults. Dave's beatings. But I can never handle my twin telling me he doesn't love me.
"Oh look Romeo, we made her cry" Ace snickered as he turned to Romeo who laughed.
I looked at him in disbelief.
"Oh poor baby. You thought I really love you? No I don't. you're so naïve" he laughed.
No no no. This is a nightmare. Wake up Angelina, WAKE THE FUCK UP!
Even if this was a nightmare, it taught me something. Never let your guard down. Never. If you care, if you let your guard down, people like them will hurt you.
From now on, I don't care if my family doesn't love me. I don't care if they don't want me. I don't care if they think I'm a burden.
All I know is, I love myself and I might have somebody out there that would love me for who I am.
When I finally escape this hell, I will live for myself and for those who love me for me.
My eyes snapped open but I shut them back when I was hit with bright lights.
I slowly opened them again, and let them get used to the lights.
I felt a weight on my arm. I looked down, only to see Romeo sleeping, with his head on my arm and his hand intertwined with mine.
I looked around my hospital room. Max was on my other side, Ace was at the foot of my bed beside Max and Vinny was sitting beside Romeo.
All my other brothers and my father were squished on the other two couches in my room.
What surprised me though, was that, Marco was here, talking to gramps and a boy who looked exactly like Romeo and Roman, but the only difference was, he had green eyes just like Romeo,Ace, dad and I.
Is that..is that River?
My eyes welled up. My poor brother was sent away at such a young age for something he never did. All because of that bitch. I swear to god when I find her, she will die by my hands and that, is a promise.
"Riri...." I whispered in disbelief, not knowing if he heard me. Judging by how his head snapped to me, he sure did hear me.
"Lina....You're awake!" He exclaimed and shot up from his seat, causing gramps and Marco to look at me. Their eyes widened and Marco let out a gasp.
"My baby!" He screeched as him, gramps and River rushed to my side, waking Romeo and Vince up as they did.
"The fuck, Marco? Why are you screaming? We're all trying to sleep here!" Romeo whisper yelled as Vince nodded in agreement.
"Look behind you, dumbasses" River rolled his eyes but you could see how happy he was.
Both Vince and Rome turned their heads to see me staring at them like a creep.
"Hey." I waved.
Suddenly, I was pulled into a bone crushing hug.
"Oh sunshine." Romeo whispered in the crook of my neck as I felt my shoulder get wet.
I lifted my hands up and cupped his cheeks, making him face me.
"Why are you crying, bubby?" I softly asked as I wiped his tears.
"You fucking woke up after a month, Angelina." He sniffled.
Oh.
"Well don't cry. I'm not dead yet." I joked.
They just gave me a deadpan expression.
"Jeez sorry. Not my fault y'all can't take a joke." I huffed.
I got smacked in the head.
"Ow. I just woke up from a coma please refrain from hitting me in a sore spot." I winced.
Romeo's eyes widened. "Oh my god I'm so sorry sunshine!" He panicked.
I burst into a fit of giggles.
"Oh my god you totally fell for that!" I laughed.
His face turned red. "Little shit." He muttered and then, he got smacked again, by River
"My sister is not a little shit, you fucker." He playfully growled at him.
Romeo just scoffed just as the doctor arrived to check on me.
Once he was satisfied with my condition, he left.
"River?" I croaked, suddenly overwhelmed.
He turned to me and his eyes softened, while everyone else just looked at me in shock. Well not everyone, just those who were awake.
"Baby...you remember him?" Marco asked and I nodded.
"I do. He was sent away-" he flinched and looked down.
"-for something he never did." I finished and his eyes snapped up to my face.
He looked shocked and bewildered, with happiness and hope lying underneath.
I opened my arms for him, smiling softly.
He pushed Romeo aside and crushed me into his arms.
"Hey!" Romeo yelled from somewhere behind River.
"Oh baby....I missed you so much." He gently kissed my cheek.
"Have..have you told them the whole thing, River?" I hesitantly whispered in his ear so no one could hear us.
"No." He whispered back.
I nodded. I understanding why he did not.
"I love you, Lina." He whispered, his voice thick with emotions.
"I love you too, Riri"

Hey!
So we know we had been MIA for like two days but some personal family stuff was going on soo....
Anyways, we had originally decided we would wake her up in like, a week but then people with swelling in their brain don't really wake up that fast.
We know it's a story but there needs to be something realistic here too.
NOT EVERY PERSON IN A WATTPAD STORY ONLY HAS A CONCUSSION WHEN THEY HIT THEIR HEADS.
That is ridiculous.
Also, we have come to a conclusion about the ending.
THERE WILL BE A DARK (SAD) ENDING AND A SEQUEL WHERE ANGELINA WILL BE 16.
Story time!
So we told you our nephew came home right?
Turns out, the little dude likes giving a hard time to the men in the house. AKA HIS GRANDPA, HIS DAD AND HIS UNCLES.
He's an angel to me. No pun intended.
HE LITERALLY SMACKED ANGELO ON THE HEAD YESTERDAY AND THEN PROCEEDED TO KISS MY CHEEK I SOLEMNLY SWEAR I CRACKED UP.
Then he made a huge mess in the kitchen and blamed it on my third oldest and the grouchiest brother. I knew Sammy did that but I melted when he pulled his cute little pout and widened his cute blue eyes.
SO I MADE MY BROTHERS CLEAN AND I CERTAINLY DO NOT REGRET IT.
But really tho, it pulls at my heartstrings when he yells "I didn't do it Auntie Angel" in his cute baby voice.
BRO I STARTED SWOONING AND FANGIRLING THEN AND THERE.
So yeah...that happened.
Anyways, we hope y'all enjoyed this chapter.
We love y'all!❤️
Angel and Angelo~
