rain

next morning

"Uhh Why is it so cold in here?" I groaned as my alarm went off. I got up from bed to put on a hoodie and socks, it was still raining.

I eventually got up and made my way downstairs. I heard commotion coming from the kitchen. "I will kill both of you if you get to close to her" I heard Garth's harsh voice say at someone.

I walked in to see Blaze and someone who I haven't met yet. "Okay calm down there Garth you have an audience" Blaze smiled at me an looked back at Garth.

"I'm taking you to school today" Garth turned around looking at me. "I'm not going today" I started to make coffee.

Is he serious? I'm not going today not after what he pulled.

"What do you mean?" He questioned like he didn't know the reason why. "You're kidding me right, I'm not going today not after what you pulled yesterday" I turned my attention to him.

"Oh Garth she's not like the other one's" The boy that I didn't know his name said. "Shut the fuck up" Garth growled before he stomped out of the kitchen.

I knew that Garth has obviously seen other woman and if he still did I could less of a fuck.

"He has anger issues" Blaze whispered with a slight laugh as he sat down on one of the stools at the kitchen island. "Anyways Aspen this is Daxton" He said as I was making my coffee.

"Hi nice to meet you" I turned around looking at them sipping on my coffee. They were attractive like Garth, but Garth had more tattoos and was more muscular and just had that boss look on his face.

"So do you guys just come in at all hours of the night" I looked at them. "Yeah pretty much" Daxton said opening the fridge.

"Aspen do want something to eat?" Blaze looked at me. "Oh no I'm okay thank you though" I took another sip of my coffee. It's not like I was avoiding food but I just wasn't hungry yet. "I'll see you guys later" I started to walk out of the kitchen.

I walked back upstairs seeing my bedroom door open. I walked in seeing a new journal and new art materials.

"I hope you like it" I heard Garth's voice talk in the corner by the window watching the rain. "How did you kn-"

"My mom told me that you were admiring the art on the walls and that you mentioned that you like paint" He said cutting me off turning around looking at me. "Wow thank you Garth but you really didn't have too" I stated.

He stayed quiet as he was about to walk out of my room. "I'll be working today so you can hangout with Blaze and Daxton" He said before walking out. "Oh okay" I said.

He doesn't really smile that much it was like talking to someone who didn't have any motions. But I guess that's just what happened when your in the mafia it was draining.

I decided to stay in comfy clothes all day; it's not like I would be going anywhere. Blaze and Daxton were pretty nice, more friendly and Garth.

"Do you have any siblings?" Daxton asked me as we all were hanging out in the backyard. "Yeah I have two older brother's Hugo and Cameron" I mentioned listening to the rain.

I missed my brother's even though they would never dare to stand up to our father. They never got beaten yelled at yes but beaten hell no. I was always the one.
