God of Envy

Ariella

I wake up in the passengers seat of my Dads Aston Martin. I must have dozed off again. Dad has had this habit of being the one to drop me and Ava off to school, even though he has the ability to hire drivers to take us there.

Although Ava graduated he still drives me. I've always had a close relationship with my Dad, don't get me wrong I love my Mom too, but she's a lot like Ava. And while they have each other I have my Dad. What strikes me the most about him is his past, before I was born. After his Abusive Father died his inheritance went to his Mother, Helen, who married Grandpa Sebastian, but she ended up being this obsessive psychopath and kidnaps my mom. My Dad loved her so much but he knew he had to save Mom so he shot her. The story is so grand on paper, "The Captain of Royale Elite's Football Team Shoots His Psycho Mom" but no one really talks about what happened after.

Dad shot the woman who he thought loved him, the biggest wave of betrayal and heartbreak consumed every part of him. But he didn't let that stop him. He used all that rage and anger to build an empire with his inheritance money. And not only that but he held Mom close. He said that she was a reminder for him to keep going. Now they run a marketing company together, one of the biggest in all of Europe. And nothing has made me prouder than carrying the Nash name.

That was until the letters started appearing.

But before I could think about that my Dad speaks up.
"so Captain when are you coming back home today?" He asks.
"Later than usual, Vanessa is having a snack party thing for the team"
"You know when I was your age.." "Oh my god Dad Please" I say sighing in annoyance. He chuckles "Let me finish. We had a meet up spot, where we would host parties and get together to watch games. We all had a key to that spot too. So there was no privacy between anybody".
I understood by 'We' my dad meant his friends, Uncle Aiden, Xander, Ronan and Levi. "Who owns the property?" I ask Dad. "That would be Aiden"
I think for a second "Do you have a key?"
My Dad smiles "Why?" He says.
"No reason just asking"
"I do have a key but I'd have to find it. I haven't used it in years".

My Dad pulls up to the tall castle looking school. Royale Elite High-school. The school for the kids of Rich aristocrats, politicians and billionaires. I get out of the car and wave bye to my Dad. Guys from the boys football team stand by my car greeting Dad. He is probably the most popular alumni that still shows up to the school. I walk up the large staircase to the school, people say 'good morning' and 'hello' to me and I simply nod back.

The moment I step foot into the school a large push drives me forward and then holds me back into place. "You missed practice this weekend" Vanessa speaks from behind me as she hugs my shoulders. I slowly take her arms off me and walk at a slow pace for her to catch up "I was busy" I say. "Busy stalking your Prince Charming" Vanessa rolls her eyes without a smile. Although I was Captain of the girls football team and Vanessa was the Co-captain , she was the one who really led and achieved the team spirit. The only reason I achieved this level of popularity at school was because she is also one of the most hottest juniors, scratch that she is the most hottest girl in this school. Her beautiful figure, height, and chestnut skin achieved the model look. Her parents are also rich Arab jewelers which make her part of the billionaire category.

"What are you doing tonight Ari?" She asks with a distinct seductive voice. "Don't you have a snack thing with the team?" I say. "No! I mean after" she smiles "We should go out!". The bell rings. "I got to get to class I'll see you at practice ok?" I say walking away. I can see her frown but I don't think much of it. Something I learnt from Landon was to never take anyone else's feeling personally. And although I hate to admit it he's right.

I walk into class and sit down. While I was focused on getting my books out my teachers walks up to me and places down an envelope. "Left by your coach last night" she says and walks away. I take the envelope and open it. I take out the letter and what I see makes my heart drop.
In it is a picture of me in bed, asleep. Taken from Inside my room. Written underneath was.

You really are a Beautiful Doll...
Can I play with you?
