———————————————————I sit down on the toilet floor staring into the mirror when banging starts to erupt on the door, "FUCK OFF!" I shout not in the mood to face anyone, " don't do this Lil I know you're hurting just don't shut us out again we're here for you...I have whiskey" Matteo shouts from behind the door "let us in please Lil" Cara says "please?" Simon adds.
I sigh and stand up and open the door then sit on the lounge chair again.
"Did he say anything when I ran? Is he my dad? Why didn't he look for me? Do they think I'm weak now?" I ramble and everyone comes over and hugs me maybe if he had looked for me i wouldn't have lost a piece of me, a piece of my heart I'll never get back.
"For all, we know this could be a trick lily you cannot let this affect you until you know that it is him for sure," Simon says as we pull away, " don't say that you idiot have you seen him they look so similar a stranger could see as much," Matteo says smacking simons head, "oww I was just saying we can be sure!" Si says but before Matteo could say a word in edgewise I but in " he's right there's no proof this could be a big elaborate trick to get an alliance and I WILL NOT fall for a petty trick!" I say and look in the mirror to fix my appearance then walk out of the room.
I walk through the waiting room, grab a bottle of whiskey, take a big swig, then place it back down, then continue to walk into the hall.
walk through the waiting room, grab a bottle of whiskey, take a big swig, then place it back down, then continue to walk into the hall. Once I get through the door all eyes are on me again. " AT LAST, THE PRINCESS HAS RETURNED!!" Someone shouts and they all cheer, this makes a scald take place on my face, the first real emotion I have shown the whole event, I put my hand up causing all cheering to pause, " I am no princess, I am a king don't be so stupid!" I say shaking my head as I walk down ignoring all the eyes that follow, I walk towards James and never take my eyes from him, I must admit Matteo is right we do look very similar. We have the same eyes, the same nose, and similar hair however similarities are not proof and I will have proof.
"Angel please let me have a moment with you I cannot believe you have returned and that you have grown to hold such power it astonishes me, I am so proud," James says with tears in his eyes, I must admit hearing that he is proud of me shocked me causing a twinge in my heart, I have always dreamed of hearing those words from my father but for all I know he could be an imposter, " first of James I no longer will be entering the idea of an alliance, secondly you will never see the end of your sick trick on me I don't know how you know that my father is one of my only weaknesses but you will be punished and finally even if you were my father you would have no right to be proud of my achievements as you left me alone all my life." I say spitting the words like venom and suddenly someone speaks " please stay for a small while sister we have missed you dearly even though I don't remember you very well I have longed for you my entire life, please don't go!" A boy says crying looking heartbroken and I am so confused I cannot form a sentence, I open my mouth trying to speak but when I see the other two boys that look similar to him next to him my breath is taken away, luke, the man I met the other day, is consolidating my 'father' and the other hugging the boy who spoke from the side brings tears to my eyes I walk towards him and take his face in my hands "Conor!" I whisper, I don't know how but I suddenly remember his face, the only memory I have of my childhood due to the fact that as of now all of my memories have been blocked due to trauma.
