Midterm weeks are stressful as fuckkkk
Nova
"I was around 11 when I met Francesco." I say before swallowing. I look down at my hands before looking back up. "Well met is one word for it. I was with Ang. Fuck if I hadn't dragged her out that night then she would still be here." I say.
"That is not your fault sunshine." Jax says trying to gain my attention, but I just shake my head.
"What happened to her?" Matteo asks.
"She uh. She killed herself."
"What!? Nova then that is definitely not your fault. You can't blame yourself for someone else's choice." Elio says.
"She killed herself because of Francesco. Francesco had raped her, fucking tortured her. She wouldn't have even known he existed if it wasn't for me."
"Why would he-"
"Because he knew that that was how he would get to me. My weakness. If she wasn't there I wouldn't have anything to lose, so I wouldn't listen to anything he was saying no matter what. But Ang- Ang was there. If I wanted to save her I needed to do what he asked. So I did."
"What did he want?" Lorenzo asks.
"To turn me into a killing machine. And to have that you can't have too many feelings either."
"What did he do to you?"
"Well I trained. And not that normal kind of training you guys went through when you grew up. I went through fucking torture. I don't really feel like getting into details on the specifics right now. I haven't talked about this in a while so you are just gonna have to go with me on that one. Anyway, I did what I needed to keep Ang safe because she had nothing to do with this. Clearly nothing I did was enough, and I just shouldn't have had her out that night. I did get us out of there though, but Ang was already gone. The light in her eye was gone, and she wasn't talking. I finally thought she was getting better when she learned sign language, but uh. I read the signs wrong. I don't blame her. It was a lot for her to deal with, and I wish I could have taken all the pain from her. All her pain and suffering... I already had walked through hell and back, but I would have done it again just to see the light back in her eyes."
"I am sorry Nova." Mar says.
"Not your fault."
"Doesn't mean I am not sorry."
"Yeah but don't be."
"Wh-"
"Can I say something?" Jax asks me.
"Depends..."
"Nothing bad."
"Alright go ahead."
"When Francesco did all he did- Nova wasn't joking, it was fucking torture. I don't even know every single detail but I know enough. She has come a far way. I am honestly surprised she has opened up to you guys so quickly, and with so much. Yes I know you are her brothers, but trust isn't exactly her best-friend. Either are feelings. And I mean that in the nicest way sunshine so don't come at me. Now on a different note, I am still waiting for my thank you. From all of you." Jax says.
"A thank you?" Lorenzo says.
"Uh yeah. You guys all owe me one for this ray of sunshine being so nice to you all the time. Nova owes me one for finding all of your deepest darkest secretes, and Andres- well. You just owe me one." Jax says with a smirk.
"She has not been that nice!" Mar says.
"Uh I have to! And I already said thank you, Jax"
"Well it would be nice to hear it again."
"Why would I need to say thank you." Andres asks. "If anything I should be receiving the thank you."
"Why would you be receiving a thank you?" Toni asks and Andres doesn't say anything.
"Yeah, why would you need a thank you?" I ask sarcastically towards Andres.
"Oh what the hell. I knew your sister was Rose." He says and I am just surprised he shared that.
"WHAT!? You knew and didn't tell me? Wait- You knew I was fighting my sister!?" Toni says.
"The question is how did you guys not figure out your own sister was Rose. You saw her fight- and well you actually fought her. How could you not figure it out."
"I think you are all missing the big point here." I say.
"And what would that be?" Lorenzo asks.
"That the best fighter here in America could use some food in her system." I say.
"Alright alright. I will go figure something out." Matteo says.
"Thanks your the bestttt."
"I think you are getting a little too cocky." Toni says.
"Um no. I a, just stating a known fact. Is it not true? Do we need a rematch so I can kick your ass a second time?" I ask.
"Careful brother, that might be Rose you are fighting but she still is Wendigo."
"Nah I will let you keep the title for now. Let you enjoy it before I take it back."
"Take it back? You never had it in the first place." I say with a tilt of the head.
"Whatever." He says and I just chuckle.
