Seven

Aria.

Once I finished getting ready, we all headed outside and into the huge garage.

i mean, who needs this many cars?

definitely me.

bitch, you don't even have one car.

oh shut the fuck up consy.

wow, telling me to shut up? bitch you're literally talking to yourself.

oh. good point.

I think i need professional help- "Aria? hello earth to Aria!" Ares yells, cutting my beautiful train of thoughts off.

I'm not mentally okay. no, I'm dead serious. Matt sure did some work on my mind. I'm so screwed in the head. anyway, "huh? Oh- shit, sorry." I stutter.

"it's fine, come on! let's go shopping." Ares yells, running over to a black Bugatti La Voiture Noire

(A/N I have no clue about cars, let alone this one, so please don't come for me 😭 I literally just picked out a random expensive car I saw on Google 🧍‍♀️)

on the way there, greyson starts talking in Italian, which they've assumed I don't speak,

" perché cazzo è qui? non potrebbe essere con noi."
[why the fuck is she here? she shouldn't be with us.]

what the fuck did I do to him.

"perché è nostra sorella Greyson, non parlare male di lei." Leo says angrily.
[Because she's pur sister, greyson. don't talk bad about her]

okay, at least he's defending me.

"Non è mia sorella. sarebbe dovuta morire come la mamma e il suo patrigno. comunque nessuno la vuole qui." greyson spits out angrily at Leo.
[ She isn't my sister. she should've died like mom and her stepdad. no one wants her here anyway.]

ouch. I've already tried to kill mys- never mind.

"Greyson! mangia e basta finché non arriviamo a casa! è nostra sorella e lo dirò a Lorenzo." Leo yells. I fucking hate yelling, my hands start to shake and I think Ares notices because he puts his hand on mine.
[greyson! just wait until we get home! she is our sister, and I'll be telling Lorenzo.]

okay, what is a Greyson's problem with me?!

after Leonardo says that, he stops talking, but a scowl remains on his face.

❦❦❦

once the car stops at the mall, we all get out of the car. Ares then stands
up beside me and slings his arm around my shoulder.

everyone in this family is so damn tall. EVEN ARES. ugh! why couldn't I get the tall genes?

once everyone's out of the car, greyson speaks, "I'm going on my own so dont fucking follow me. ill meet you all when you're done shopping. I don't need my reputation ruined. By being seen with some orphan, Dad took in out of pity." Grey spits out angrily. he says the last part in Italian, probably not wanting me to know what he said. but little do they know, I speak Italian.

okay, he's such a little bitch.

did my father really take me in out of pity..?

of course he did. no one wants you. pathetic little slut.

maybe he's right..

after grey says that he stomps off into the building.

to make it look like I don't know Italian, I keep a confused expression on my face.

you mean so they don't see the hurt on your face.

shut up!

oh God. I'm crazy.

"Uh, anyway, let's go shopping!" Ares exclaims while Leo just nods with a slight scowl on his face.

❦❦❦

We went to lots of different stores. I got sweatpants, hoodies, crop tops, t-shirts, sneakers, high heels, jeans, leggings, dresses, even the ones i wasnt alloed to buy because they were 'too showy', and much more.

ooh, I am so giving Liam, Blake, and Atlas a haul when I see them. I can't believe they're moving here to be with me.

we spent over 6000 dollars, which I crazy and were now headed to the apple store to get me some electronics.

I tried to tell them I didn't need all this stuff, but they still insisted by saying, "we missed out on 13 years of your life, let us spoil you at least."

stupid, I know, but I couldn't day no.

after we get the rest of the stuff I need, we meet greyson at the car, who just glares at me. and I glare right back. he looks a bit taken aback but hurriedly covers it up with another glare. and if I wasn't used to getting glared at, I'd probably pass out.

he doesn't say a word, just gets in the passenger seat and glares at me.

on the way back home, it feels so weird saying that greyson doesn't glare, but instead looks at me with an unknown expression.. guilt maybe..? but why?

after driving for a bit, with very quiet music going in the background, I noticed black SUV cars following us.

"Leo? are we being followed?" Once I say that, he looks out the window and mutters a string of curse words under his breath.

he starts to speed up, and I flinch into Ares side when I hear loud gunshots ring through the air.

oh god. I'm going to die.

hey, at least I've lived a good life? ah, who am I kidding, I've lived the shittiest life ever.

I hear another gunshot ring out and see grey with a gun shooting.

after that, the gunshots keep going, and I look back and see one coming at the car.

after I see it, everything goes black.

well, at least I'll die in a cool way.

______________________________________________________

I hate greyson so much

but hey, at least he'll get the most character development. 🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️

I'm not mean enough to kill off the main character, so there's nothing to worry about. (or am i?)

ya never know!

anyway, thoughts on this chapter??

lots of love, xoxo - Ems
