LET'S BEGIN ;)))

Elora's POV:

I ended up getting a few more things before heading to the next store. My brothers just kept giving me things to try on, and I ended up putting most of them back.

We went on to buy shoes, school supplies, and a few room decorations. I started to notice more and more people staring at us. It was a bit creepy to be honest, but I knew that I would try and figure out why eventually. I was pretty much ignoring Enzo, not that he really cared anyways. He just kept pulling out his shiny credit cards and acting like he owns the place, while I mentally rolled my eyes at him.

After hours, we finally climb in the car and start heading home. Midway through the drive, I see an incoming call from Russell. I pick it up and put it to my ear.

Phone Call:

Elora- Hey Rus! Hey Alex!

Russell/ Alex- Hi El!

Russell- We talked to our social worker and we're gonna both be moving into a house like 10 minutes away from yours, and we're gonna go to the same school!

Elora- Oh my gosh really! When do you guys get here?

Alex- We'll be there tomorrow night. Maybe we can meet your brothers the night after we arrive?

Elora- Yeah, I'll ask them and text you.

Russell- Great! And don't worry El, they'll love us.

Elora- Yeah right, literally everyone hates you.

Alex- Yet you still love us.

Elora- Somehow I do. Look, we're almost home. I'll text you what they say.

Russell/ Alex- Okay, byeeee.

Elora- Bye!

End of phone call

My brothers all had an annoyed look on their face.

"Rus and Alex are getting here tomorrow night. They said that can come over the night after." I tell my brothers in a bit of a worried tone.

"Tell them to be here at 6." is all Valerius says. I notice that all of my brothers are very still, not having moved since I told them about my friends.

"Okay," I say while texting Rus. He quickly responds and says that they'll be there. I decided that since all of my brothers are together, to ask them about a job.

"Do you guys know any good places where I can get a job? Like maybe in a restaurant or something like that?" I ask, still looking at my phone.

"A job? You're not getting a job!?" Marcello remarks almost amused that I would even ask that.

"Why not?" I ask confused, I've been working for almost three years now.

"Because you don't need on." Ric says sternly.

"Yes, I do." I respond to him

"Why? You're 14." He says back.

"Well first, I would like to be able to provide for myself. I've been doing it for years, I can still do it now. Second, I want to have a solid job at some sort of restaurant to put on my resume. I plan on going to culinary school right after I graduate high school so I only have the next four years to get experience. And lastly, I'm not much of a sport or club person, so I like to work to keep myself busy. And if you're worried about my grades, I've had jobs before and have always been able to get good grades as you can see from my report card." I say as professional as possible, hoping my elder brothers would appreciate this.

"Elora, you will be living with us from now on and we will be able to provide for anything that you need. If you want anything at all, just ask us and we will try to make it happen. You are simply too young to have a job, I do not care what 'experience' you might need. Like it or not, I am your guardian now and I won't tolerate you running off and doing whatever you want, like you have been before. We have a grand kitchen for you to practice cooking in, if that's what you want to do. Now that is the end of the story." Enzo says matching my tone of seriousness, if not surpassing it.

"But-" I start.

"I said no Elora." He says in a voice that I don't want to question. I just mentally roll my eyes and back back on my phone.

We arrive home a little later and Dom and Matt help me bring all of my bags to my room. I make sure to thank them for everything they bought today. When they leave, I start unpacking all of the bags. I put my clothes in the closet, makeup/skincare products in the bathroom, school supplies on my desk, and started to put the decorations in my room.

I seem to be really into my decorations and don't even notice when Enzo steps into my room. I mean I probably wouldn't even have noticed if I had been paying attention, that's how quiet he was. I turn to see him and immediately stiffen up a little. I was still annoyed at him from the mall and about the job thing.

"Sit down Elora, we need to talk." He says in his intimidating voice.

I walk over and sit on my bed right in front of him, not meeting his eyes.

He crouches down to my level and I slowly look into his eyes. I notice that they aren't completely emotionless like they were at the mall. Maybe he did care, just a little.

"I know that you have had to take care of yourself for many years Stellina (little star), which you did amazing at, but you're still young, you need someone to look after you. We're your brothers, your family, please at least try to let us in. I can't even begin to imagine what you went through, but we're here for you, okay? I want you to understand that as long as you live in this house, you aren't going to have to work, or pay for anything, or worry too much about things like that. We all want you to feel at home here, but you're going to need to trust us." Enzo said in a soft and calm voice. I was shocked that Enzo, of all my brothers, was telling me this. I was so shocked, all I could do was nod.

"Words, Elora." He commands.

"Um, ok. Thank you." I manage to get out, in a very small voice. I find my gaze falling to the floor again.

He takes his pointer finger and pushed my chin up, so I'm looking him dead in the eye.

"Keep it like that." Is all he says before removing his hand from my face and walking out of the room.
