-Angel's POV-
Well life official sucks. My "lovely" parents, with sarcasm added, are making go to this "Magcon" thing with my older brother, Matthew Espinosa. If your wondering, no one knows that i'm his sister but him and our parents.
I don't listen to my parents. Matthew is their perfect child and I'm just there. If my parents tell me to do something, I do the complete opposite.
My lip ring and Nose ring, my parents hate it but, suprisingly they let me keep it. My tattoos, my parents don't know about. I wear long sleeves at home, so they don't see them or I will wear my sweater. Each of my tattoos have a certain meaning.
-Stay Strong (wrist): it symbolizes my strength that I have for the neglection my parents gave me when I grew up.
-The Birds (left arm): theyre flying into success and I want to be successful but its harder than it looks
-The Heartbeat (right arm): It means even though my life is horrible and sucks, i won't end it and my heart will remain beating
-"Without Pain, How Could We Know Joy" (left arm): That quote is my favorite. If my parents didn't give me all this pain, I wouldn't be the person I am.
The only reason my parents are making me go with Matthew is because, My parents caught me sneaking back into the house at 3 am and They smelt me and I smelt like weed. Yes, I smoke, but for certain reasons.
---FlashBack--- (Still Angel's POV)
I stumbled in my room, through my window. Oh my god, that party was amazing. I think I smoked WAY more than usual. And on top of that I'm drunked as fuck.
I walked to my desk and put my purse on the chair. I was sitting in my chair replaying a scene that happened at that party.
Me and a bunch of kids from school were playing Spin the Bottle and It landed on a girl and i didn't care who it was because, I don't fall in love. I kissed her and i felt nothing as usual when I kiss people. And no, I'm not a slut, Its complicated.
I left the game and hours later, I stumbled into a room and a girl and a guy were fucking. I didn't want to start shit so, I walked out. Before I could leave, that same girl from the game told me to join in for a threesome and I did.
And now i'm home, in my room, all alone. I turn on my lamp and see MY PARENTS?!?!
"What the fuck? Why are you in my room?" I was pissed. I hated when people were in my room without permission
"Angelica where were you?" Carrie (not Matt's real mom's name) aka my mother said.
"I was at someone's house and its Angel" I said and walked to my closet but stumbled and tripped but caught myself before I could fall
"Angelica, you know your curfew is 11 pm, ITS 3 IN THE MORNING!" Robert aka my father yell at me.
"Shh wouldn't want to wake up your precious Matthew, he is your favorite anyway," I said but i didn't mean to. They say when were drunk, we speak sober thoughts and I always though about Matt being their favorite.
"Angelica, were you smoking weed?" My mom said.
"Yes, and it was fucking amazing.. now get out! I'm going to bed." I said.
"No, Angelica, your mother and I decided your going with Matthew to MAGcon to straighten your life. Make friends with people who are not stoners or idiots" My father said.
"Thats fucking bullshit, I am not going to MAGcon" I said.
"YES YOU ARE! YOU EITHER GO TO MAGCON OR LIVE ON THE STREETS!" My mom screamed. I was shocked.
"Fine then" I said.
----End of Flashback---
That was One week ago.
Now I'm on a damn plane going to San Francisco for the first show. I don't want to go but i'll suffer so I dont live on the streets because i dont have any other family other than my parents.
Matthew was sitting on the aisle seat and I was sitting on window seat. I was listening to Dollhouse by Melanie Martinez and its not what I usually listen to but its a good song.
I was thinking about how this month would be. I mean, I wonder how Matt's friends are. They probably don't know me. Maybe he does talk about me to them. But why does it matter..
According to my parents, I have no special talents. I can sing, play guitar, write songs, draw, boxing, and i can fix cars. When I grow up, I'm gonna leave my parents house for good and I want to be a Tattoo Artist or a professional boxer.
I'm kinda wondering if any of those friends of Matt is hot to fuck and leave. Maybe Matt will let me do whatever i want. Or maybe he'll make me be with him 24/7.
We got to San Francisco and drove to the hotel. I was wearing a Led Zeppelin graphic tee, ripped skinny jeans, and my black doc martens. I was wearing a Star Wars, Batman, Of Mice & Men, PTV, and BVB bracelets.
When we got to the hotel, I kinda am glad I don't wear shorts, It's cold here in San Francisco.
We walked into mine and Matt's hotel room and we put all our stuff down.
"Angelica, I'm going to Nash's room, you want to come? Meet the guys?" Matthew asked. That was the first thing he said to me at this whole trip.
"Its Angel, and sure I guess..." I said and walked with him to this kid Nash's room.
As we were walking to Nash's room, Matthew asked me, "So, Angel, Why do you make things harder for Mom and Dad?" So he was curious.
"I make things hard for Carie and Robert because of reasons you dont need to know about,"
"Why did you say I was Mom and Dad's favorite, you know they love you"
"No they don't, and it's true. Look at me, and look at you... You the perfect child and i'm their child that smokes weed, gets tattoos and piercings. They don't love me and if they did love me, they wouldn't treat me the way they do,"
"What way Angel? They show you the same love they show me"
"They Neglect me, they forgot my fucking birthday for god sakes. The whole town tells our parents shit about me and our parents agree. Matt, don't you ever say we get treated the same because we don't."
We got to Nash's door. Matt and I didn't speak after my comment, and it was true. He would never feel my pain. I knocked on the door.
"Matthew!" a kid with brown hair and bright blue eyes yelled at me "who's this?" He said with disgusted. Damn, already judging someone before you even meet them.
"Are all the guys here?" Matthew asked.
"Yeah why?"
"I need to announce something to everyone" and we walked in.
When we got inside, there were about 9 guys and 1 girl.
"Hey Matt" everyone said.
"Guys, I have something to say. This is Angelica but she goes by Angel and she's my sister.."
