Ember
I woke up in bed with my face puffy from crying myself to sleep. I glanced at my wounds and saw that they have been cleaned and taken care of, with a cartoon band-aid on top. I laughed at the band-aid and my heart ached as I realized that Greyson was listening to me talking and cared about me deeply. I tried getting up from my bed but realized that a heavy fucking weight is on me. I turned my head and saw Greyson asleep with his arm on me.
He's an ugly sleeper.
"Asshole! I gotta go to the bathroom. Move your fat arm, please."
"Good morning to you too, Ember." Grayson moved his arm and got up from bed. "How'd you sleep?"
The first night I slept without having a nightmare, thanks to you.
"Amazing besides the fact that I woke up to almost being suffocated with your arm," I said as I got up and walked towards the bathroom. Before I entered I turned around and faced Greyson. "All jokes aside. Thank you for everything. Meeting the D'Angelos was the best thing that has ever happened to me...well after trying candy for the first time and getting my first motorcycle. Anyways just know that somewhere on the list of amazing things that have happened to me, you guys are definitely in the top 30s." A let out a laugh as I entered the bathroom and closed the door.
SHE'S NOT COMING BACK
I began walking down the stairs, nervous to meet Gio and Alex because of yesterday's incident. I don't know. Is it stupid for me to want a relationship with them? I think a part of me will always love them despite the things they do to me. They're my brothers after all.
Unfamiliar laughter caught my attention as I turn my head and see 2 little girls playing on the ground with their dolls.
Does everybody and their mamas live here now?
Both girls turned their heads to my direction and locked eye contact. A smile formed on my face as I walked towards them and plopped on the ground beside them. "Hey cuties! Um seems like we're the only females in this house." Both identical girls stared at me with no emotion.
"Haha so funny... let's ignore the new girl." One of the girls pointed at their ears and I'm going to take a wild guess and say that I'm a fucking bitch. They're deaf.
'So sorry. I just said that we're the only girls in the house. Cool or what?' I signed.
Both girls had a surprised look on their faces. 'What? surprised that I know how to sign? I find that quite offensive that you thought I was stupid' I sign to the girls.
Both girls burst out laughing until one of them freezes and signs; 'Hi I'm Ivy and this is my twin sister Iris'
'I'm Ember nice to meet you. Where are your parents?'
'Our dad is somewhere here. I'm not sure where and our mom passed away' signed Iris.
Shit. Quick how do I make this conversation a little less depressing?
'Sorry for your loss.' I signed but quickly glance over to Dominic who is sitting on the couch staring, confused. I'm guessing he doesn't understand sign language.
'See that dude on the couch? What are your thoughts on him? I find him quite annoying.' I sign to the girls.
Let me use his language barrier to my advantage.
'He is' Ivy signed.
'What are your thoughts on him, Ember?' Questions Iris.
