The Girl That No One Noticed...

Chapter 53

I was a horrible person. I just couldn't keep my big mouth shut for once, and now I felt like cr*p on a cracker because of it. Why did the world have to be so cruel, to make me like 14 guys all at once? I was silently wishing I could punch the world in the face, but the impossible is impossible for a reason. I was a blubbering mess and the guys seemed to have all turned to stone, or at least gone mute for the last few minutes, which was not helping my mental breakdown. When Gabriel finally said something to break the silence I was momentarily relieved, until Owen made me repeat the words that had me breaking into a fresh round of tears, life sucks. 

"Aggele mou, it's okay." Silas tried to comfort me with a hand at my back, tried being the operative word since I shook him off real quick. "Okay? Silas, nothing about this is OKAY." I growled out as I motioned my hands to myself and the group of guys all around. "Being beaten, battered and broken is not OKAY. Being sold to a Devil is not OKAY. The demons of my past are not OKAY. Running and hiding most if not all of my life is not OKAY. No part of me is OKAY, none of it is OKAY." I spat the words out despite my tears, and once again there was total silence.

I don't know how long I sat there shaking in silence as the tears kept coming, but eventually I started to calm down and breath somewhat normally again, of course that was when Mr. Perfect himself decided to break the silence. "Ms. Sorenson what if there was a way for us to make this okay?" I couldn't help the ironic smile that tugged at my lips as he motioned to the guys, himself and me. The boy best explain himself and soon, because I might not be able to punch the world but he's fair game for my fists. Can you tell I get a little violent before, during and after my meltdowns?

"And just how do you suppose that would work out, the last I checked it isn't exactly normal to have feelings like this for 14 different people." I puffed out in exasperation, the boy was starting to annoy me now. "Pookie, it may not be normal but it's not impossible." Sean reasoned out as I sent him a questioning look. Why'd I get the feeling there was something they weren't telling me, the feeling only grew stronger as they shared another look between them that I couldn't quite read. "Ms. Sorenson it may not be normal to have feelings for 14 people, but it's not exactly normal for 14 guys to have feelings for one small blond haired green eyed bird either, however as Dr. Green stated it is not impossible." Owen's words had me gaping at him, hot boss dude say what now?

I couldn't know for sure if I was thinking straight in that moment since my thought were going haywire over possible outcomes at what had been implied. He didn't mean what I thought he did, did he? I mean they couldn't all... as I scanned the room each of them gave me nods and a few were silently blushing, it was like the breath had been stolen from my lungs. The feelings I had for them were returned, but that just didn't seem possible, I never got that lucky. Was their a catch I was missing in all of this, a cruel prank I didn't get? If so I was going to make someone hurt very very badly.

"How?" I had just enough air to breath out the question before I was met with a plethora of answers in return. "Well you're the only bird I've ever met that owns and does mechanics for a Harley Davidson for one." Brandon said with a smile. I blinked at him shell shocked, what was so special about that? "I was skeptical at first but then you showed you truly cared and wanted to protect my brothers and I knew you were perfect for us." Nathan stated, the conversation we had so long ago popped up in my head as I studied him.

"You are my feisty little bird and you always will be." Raven stated firmly, I smiled slightly at that one, the Russian wasn't one to mince words. "You're great at video games." Corey said as his blush tinted his adorable cheeks. "You know a good movie when you see one." Marc commented as I tilted my head to him, didn't everyone? "You aren't afraid to stand up for yourself and others, even against me, which is amazing in itself." North grunted out and I couldn't help the soft snort I gave at his words.

"Aggele mou you light up our world with your kind heart and angelic beauty." Silas murmured out and I forced myself to not start bawling again at the thought of how sad he'd been at my hateful words earlier. "Pookie you might scare me half to death sometimes considering you seem to obtain injuries wherever you go, but I'm very glad we met you." Sean smiled as I met his gaze and the warmth behind his words had my heart pounding. "Trouble, no matter how much trouble you are you're still f***ing perfect for us." Gabe ground out in his usual way. 

"You are the first bird in a long time to deserve our feelings for you." Axel's soothing voice did nothing to stop my jaw from dropping at his words and hits of jealousy to pop up for any previous 'birds' before me. "Cupcake you aren't afraid of my little sugar hating brother, you got him to eat sweets and you love chocolate chip pancakes, what's not to like?!" Luke hummed out and I giggled slightly at his bouncing personality, no doubt he'd tapped into a sugar stash of some sort earlier this morning. 

"Your love of music, and your beautiful singing voice are just some of the things I found that drew me to you, there are so many more." Victor sighed off to the side and I was suddenly fighting a blush of my own. "Sang you've been growing on us from the very beginning, you complete our group, our team, what other reason do we need?" Kota answered softly, and it was a stunning one for me to think about. "Ms. Sorenson, you've been a unspoken part of our team, now we want you as part of our family, if you are willing." I stared at Owen for a long moment as doubts crept in from every angle.

"But how would any of it work, I mean there's one of me and fourteen of you, that doesn't even seem to compute in my head." I wavered out cautiously. "Sang my team has always wanted a bird to share, we even tried it once, but the bird back then hadn't been a good choice, she used and abused us." Axel's words hit me hard but my anger at them wasn't for him, but for whoever had so clearly caused the pain that flashed in his eyes. "Then that's her loss." I stated softly as I reached a hand out, gently placing it comfortingly on Axel's arm as he looked down at me in surprise. 

"And I must say she is one very stupid and foolish 'bird' if she gave up something as perfect and amazing as all of you." I murmured out, letting the true feelings seep into my words as the room went into a far more comfortable hushed silence. "Thank you." Axel murmured out with a nod, I slowly and reluctantly returned my hand to my lap with a sigh. "Ms. Sorenson, my own team never really thought much into having a single bird to our group let alone sharing with the Toma's but we would like to give it a try if you are willing to give us the chance to do so." Owen's words stunned and elated me, I had no clue what to say.

"And this isn't some sick and twisted prank you fools are playing on me, right?" I voiced my concern as they quickly denied the claim with fervent shakes of their heads. "So you all have feelings for me too?" I asked. "More than you know Aggele mou." Silas murmured beside me. "It isn't normal at all..." I trailed as they shrugged. "But then again I'm not your normal average 'bird' as you say..." I hmmmed out as the group seemed on the edge of their seats, but in the end my heart had made the decision far before I had and most definitely without my consent. 

"Well...?" Luke pleaded out. "Okay." I breathed out in a rush. "Okay?" the guys asked as one. "Yes, okay. I will give this a try, but I make no promises about any of it. I refuse to break up your teams and if things get to rough between you I'll call it off myself." I scolded even as their faces beamed all around me. I was truly falling hard for these guys, and I was finally doing something about it. I only hoped it went well, because if not... at least the plane ticket was trade-able if I needed a quick get away.
