Denial ~ Tony Lopez (read description)

♡ Chapter Eleven ♡

♡ Isabella's Pov ♡

I wake up sprawled out across the sofa. I must have put the twins to bed in my room. I was too tired last night I can barely remember what happened after I got home. I pull my phone off charge and the screen lights up.

Tony🖤 5 missed calls.
Tony🖤- hey so I know it's still early, but we're heading over to the hype house today for a pool party. Don't worry, it's only house members, people you have met 100 times before! x

I sigh and run my hands through my hair. I wasn't sure if I could bring myself to go to another one of their parties. But then again, like Tony said I've met them like 100 times before.

I text him back saying I'd love to and he tells me Ondreaz will be coming to pick me up shortly.

I wake the twins up and make them juice in their bottles and pour them some cereal.
I need to get used to be an older sister, I'm used to being the youngest.
The twins sit up on the breakfast bar stools and I turn the tv on for them. I put the empty dishes in the sink and notice my mother, out the corner of my eye, walking up our drive.
"You've got to be-" I groan to myself as I storm towards the door.
"Where the fuck have you been!" I yell at her as she gets in.
"I went food shopping" she says trying to act cheerful. She holds bags up and I slap them back down.
"I meant last night! You left the twins unsupervised how the fuck could you do that!" I say getting louder. No words could describe my anger.
"I just went to meet up with a friend-" she stutters, her voice was shaky, she clearly hadn't slept, the veins in her wrist were visible and red, alongside her eyes being red too.
"I swear to god if you have-"
"No I haven't, I told you, I'm clean off the drugs" she holds her hands up defensively.
I grab the shopping bags and walk back into the kitchen.
"Disappear, hurt, upset or let any of us down again-" I say, holding my finger up against her.

I'm not a violent person, at all. But if you knew the shit this woman has put us through you would understand we have every right to be how we are.

A/n Isabella will be telling Tony later on about her backstory so don't worry you will find out about the whole mum and dad situation and why there's so much resentment towards them.

Jack and his girlfriend Kirsty come downstairs and say goodbye to us since they were going somewhere.
Once they leave I lean back against the side and bite down on my nails. If you couldn't tell by now it's a stress thing.

"I have to be somewhere too" I say.
"Really? Where you going?" Mum asks.
"A pool party, with my friends" I weakly smile at her before heading upstairs to get ready.
I throw my hair in a messy bun and didn't bother to put my makeup on. I pick out a bikini to put underneath my clothes.

♡ Bikini ♡

♡ Outfit ♡

Once I had finished getting ready I threw some extra clothes in a bag, alongside some lip gloss, my phone, my charger, an inhaler because I'm HIGHLY asthmatic,
(a/n I'm sorry I had to🤣❤️)
And my spare keys.
I brush my teeth and head downstairs.
Dre texts me telling me he's outside and I say goodbye to my mum and the twins.
I rush out to the car and jump in.
"Most exercise you've done in a while?" He raises his eyebrows.
"You're not gonna let that go are you" I laugh as he pulls out of the driveway.
"Nopeeeeee" he replies, over-exaggerating.
We arrive at the house and head to the backyard where everybody was laying on deck chairs. The music was really loud and everybody was laughing. I look over to see Tony and Britt at the side of the pool, cuddled up, as usual.
I look down.
"Nobody else here likes it either, just ignore it little one, it's what we do" Dre says hugging my side. I nod and smile to him.
Avani grabs my arm and shows me to the bathroom so I can get dressed into my bikini.

As we lay across the towels next to the pool, I could tell something was wrong with Isabella.
She lays back looking at the blue, washed over sky and frowns.
"Izzy what's the matter?" I ask her laying down next to her.
"It's confusing" she shakes her head.
"What is?"
I knew what.
He was hurting her, unintentionally of course.
"Why would he lay with me like he did a few weeks ago, if he was with her" She looks at me through her sunglasses.
"I don't think he was with her then, but I do see your point" I smile weakly.
"Izzy I see something there" I speak up. Sitting up in the process.
"What do you mean?" She asks looking over at Tony and Brittney.
"I see something between you both, whenever you're not around you're literally all he talks about, regardless whether he's with Britt or not it's still about you".

She sighs again and looks back at the sky.

" I hate these feelings, but I have them" She closes her eyes.
"I know babe, I know you do" I lay back down.
Since Izzy moved here her and I have gotten ALOT closer, she like a little sister to me.

Brittney stands up and hugs everybody before going inside.
"I'm guessing she's leaving" Izzy says.
"Bit odd how she didn't come over and hug you guys" Addi laughs sitting down next to us.
"She won't, Izzy has feelings for the guy she's with, of course she won't" I laugh and slip my sunglasses over my eyes.
