I never thought that I would see the day where I had to sit through the cold weather, as I waited for a football game to begin. I was watching the twins, and just the pure talent that they emitted. Even Hunter was just as good as them, and it was nerve wracking, having known what they do in their spare time, to how good they were on a football field. 

I envied them. I envied how they could be able to juggle their two lifestyles. I knew what they did behind the scenes. I had heard my brothers speak in Italian when they thought no one was around. I had had to teach myself Italian to read my mothers cook book, so of course I knew what they were saying. I knew every word that they said, especially the one that had to do with trades. 

I had looked my brothers up when they had started to stalk me, back when I had no clue they were my brothers, and knew that they ran a huge business that involved hotels and shipments, and that none of it was good. But, to know that my brothers could live that life and still be teenagers, was something that was honorable in my books. 

I had tried my hardest, when everything had been beaten, to not hide from dance, but it was hard. Deep down, I admired these boys hard work. I had seen the scars on their arms, when they had rolled up their sleeves. As much as I wanted to avoid them, I wanted to know their story, but that would mean they would want to know my story too, and we all know that that would never happen. Not in a million years would they know who their little sister really is. What I had really done but never said much about. 

"Matilda!" my name was then screeched from someone that was standing down at the side of the field, making me roll my eyes, as I grumbled a few colorful words, before I was walking down the unnecessary amount of stairs, and meeting my brother at the gate. I was shocked that he had called my name, but pretended like I could care less about him, which was true. 

I could care less about these stupid brothers right now. "Put this on" I was then handed a hoodie, which smelt like a teenage boy, and I just held it in my hand, looking at it with disgust. I was more than happy with my outfit, and there was no way that Ace and his little fuck face twin was going to make me wear one of their hoodies, that had our last name written all over it, followed by their numbers. 

"I'm not your fucking girlfriend" I gritted out, hoping to make my point clear to my brother, who just seemed to get angrier the more that I stood there, not doing what he asked. If he was a character in a TV show, I was sure that he would baring his teeth at me like a big grizzly bear, but I wasn't scared. They say, choose a man over a bear, but I would pick a man any day over my own brother. He could shove it up his asse for all I cared. 

"Ace, back the fuck up and go away" and with that, my brother was pushed away from the fence, where I was sure I literally say him bite at me, before he stalked off, to go to where his twin brother was standing, staring at me with that brooding look, while the rest of their friends goofed off. "I fucking hate being on the same team as them" Hunter grumbled, as he tugged the hoodie away from me.
