If only They Knew

Chapter 5: Anger Rises

Charlotte's POV

The awkwardness and tension in the room was suffocating. I trailed off from my last sentence, not really knowing where to start. I know I came off as cocky and didn't give a flying flip, but on the inside my nerves were eating me alive. Looking around the room, my gaze landed on Stefani, and I felt my eye's harden as I thought about the backstabbing wh*re. She wasted no time trying to put the moves on Sergio as soon as I moved to New York.

" I'm sorry, well not really. Sergio can you ask your little hump and dump to leave us alone, and while she's at it, tell her that he right leg misses her left leg." I let out a heartless laugh when the faker-then-Barbie b*tch stood up and stomped her foot. Sergio glared at me and tried to calm her down.

" Baby, calm down, she's just trying to make you mad."

"Ugh! I'm leaving befor I'll say something I'll regret. That b*tch is just jealous anyway." Stefani threw her hair over her shoulder, crossed her arms and then smirked at me. Oh, did that yard tool just try to insult me with that lame a** comment, and think that I would just take it? Oh hell naw, it's on like Donkey Kong.

" Stefani dear, aren't you late for your shift at the corner? What's your hooker name again? Oh right, radio station, cause your so easy to pick up." Maria and her mom tried to stiffle a laugh, my father remained silent." Now get along hoe, and if you fall off the sl*t tree again, try not to bang every guy on the way down okay?"

Stefani glared at me and ran out of the house befor I could come up with another insult. Everyone in the room, besides Maria and my father, looked at me like I had grown two heads. Their shock was imaginable, I used to be such a pushover, and now here I was, thowing insults out as fast as Stefani spreads her legs. A chuckle escaped my lips as the thought popped up.

"D*mn girl! Where did those come backs come from? You know what I don't really care, I've been wanting to put that girl in her place for a year now. Man, I'm loving this new Charlie." Maria shook her head in disbelief and then a smile blew up on her face. My father grunted and glared at me.

" Was that really neccessary? Your first contact with us in five years and the first thing you do is insult my girlfriend? Really Charlotte?" He sat down on the couch again, irritation marking his face.

"First of all, that girl isn't girlfriend material, her hoo-ha has been used more than google. And second of all, this isn't my first time contacting you guys in five years." Sergio looked shocked, then angry, glaring at the rest of his family. They avoided eye contact, looking nervous.

" What the Hell!? Charlie has been in contact with you guys all these years, and none of you bothered to tell me?! What the f*ck!"

" First of all mister, Charlie hasn't been in contact with us all these years, we lost contact about three years ago, okay d*ck face! Second of all, Charlie asked us not to tell you, and even if she hadn't, I still wouldn't have told you, because you didn't deserve to know!" Maria shouted back. Sergio, looked amped up, ready to shoot out and insult at his little sister.

"Enough! Mijo,Mijah, sit down and calm down. Your both acting like spoiled brats. We'll talk about this later, after Charlie tells us what she came here for." Mama Arcelia yelled at her children. Both still looked mad, but knew better than to push their mother, and sat back down.

" Well look there, here Charlie comes again, ruining, what is it, four families?" My sperm-donor said, his words filled with disgust.

" Ah, there is the father dearest I know and love so much, gag. I knew you couldn't go 30 minuets without insulting me. You know that none of those were my fault."

" Really? You ruined our family five times. First with your birth, killing your twin. Then, you turned your mother on me. Followed by cancelling your engagement that I worked so hard to get for you. Not only that but your mother Is in a deep depression becuase of you."

" I get it, enough father." I said through gritted teeth.

" Your ruined Edward's family when you acted like a slut-"

"That wasn't my fault! I didn't act like a slut he jus-" I could feel my calm and cold exterior breaking, leaving behind my broken self.

" To top it all off your family is forever ruined, becuase of your actions. An innocent child is-"

" SHUT UP! SHUT THE HELL UP! YOU KNOW THAT THAT"S NOT WHAT HAPPENED!" I screamed at my father, tears running down my face, just at the mention of Luc-, no. I couldn't go down that dark hole.

The Delgado family sat there shocked, trying to figure out what we were talking about.

" Charlie... what's going on? What are you guys talking about?" Maria was the first to speak. I stood there without replying, my clenched fist slowing unclenching. My anger quickly turning into a cold facade. Maria began to look irritated.

" Dammit Charlie, don't shut me out! You've been shutting me out for the past three years! Enough is enough! Why won't you-"

"Maria! I love you, but for the love of all things good, shut up." She quickly shut up. I could feel the shock rolling off of everyone, I never raised my voice at Maria. They Knew now that whatever demons I was dealing with we're pretty serious. Looking around I saw Maria's hurt face, Sergio' s angry face, and their parents shocked faces. I sighed and rubbed my temples. This wasn't how I wanted this meeting to go.

Looking back at my smirking father,"Let's go, I believe we've over stayed our welcome here Stewart."

" Your right, let's go befor you can destroy this family any more than you already have. Dinner should be ready soon." He began to walk away, but stopped when he noticed that

I wasn't following. He raised his eyebrows in question.

" I'm not going home with you. I've had enough of your childish insults. The only reason I stayed with you in the first place was because HE wouldn't be back for a few monthes, and I wanted to stay close to mom."

" Fine, but where will you stay then? In a hotel for three monthes? Why that's just-"

" With us"
