Double trouble...

2. Kicked out

Currently, I'm sitting in my room with Ella after haven gotten a shower. Mary and Katie both decided to go home since they have to get ready for camp, so I'm stuck here with Ms. Chatty whilst Essie talks to mum and dad.

I'm not as drunk as I was, but thankfully I'm still a bit drunk, so that helps a little I suppose.

"You think they're finally gonna kick me out" I ask Ella.

It wouldn't surprise me, I mean, they've been threatening to do it for a year or so, saying I'm too much of a hassle and that they can't deal with me anymore. I've tried to ignore it, but every time they say it, I just get this urge to push them over the line and make them do what they always say they'll do.

"What do you mean pea" she asks, looking at me with confusion.

Oh yeah, I've never actually told anyone about that...

"It's nothing" I say, but she just gives me a look that tells me to cut the crap "Fine, it's just....They always say that I'm too much of a hassle to deal with and that they're gonna throw me out or whatever, but it's whatever I guess" I mumble the last part.

"What? Why would they say that, and why haven't you talked to Lessi about it?" she asks me, and I shrug.

"Guess I didn't want to disturb her or be a bother, and it's not like she can do anything about it, so I just leave it be. Besides, she only ever calls me to yell at me, so it's not like I have much interest in talking to her about my feelings and stuff" I tell her nonchalantly.

I absolutely hate talking about my feelings.

"You know she loves you pea. If you need her, it doesn't matter what she's doing, you'll never be disturbing her. But let's face it, the last couple of months you've been on your A game with causing trouble, and we both know you don't listen to anyone. But, you do listen to Less a lot more than you listen to your parents" she says, sending me a cheeky smile that I respond to with an eye roll.

"Still, I don't want to be a distraction, especially now that you guys are going to the World Cup, so I'm just gonna spend more time with Es and them" I tell her.

It's not like I'm trying to be bad, it's just hard when I feel like everything and everyone is testing me.

I feel like I don't know anything other than being trouble, and what happens if I stop causing trouble?

Then I'll probably just be Alessia Russo's sister.

Alessia's pov

When Cara didn't show up for my game I knew something had happened, so I wasn't all that surprised when mum called me.

However, I was surprised that she was crying, and then when she told me what had happened, I didn't even know what to say.

Again, when Cara didn't answer me I wasn't surprised, she knew I was calling to scold her, and I probably would've done the same if I were her. I know there's been some tension at home lately, but when mum called me again to tell me that Cara had ran off, I knew I had to come here.

Safe to say I wasn't expecting to find my 14 year old sister drinking and vaping on a football pitch, but she's always liked keeping people on their toes.

Though, this is probably the dumbest shit she's done...

Running after her was definitely expected, but jumping into the lake was not, and I'm honestly surprised I even did it.

But I'll have to admit that, that little shit can really run.

But now I'm having a conversation with my parents, and to say I'm surprised by what they've been saying so far is a huge understatement.
