The one who was constantly left out – that was my usual role when it came to my siblings and me. And of course, being the youngest, I was constantly vying for attention, jumping through hypothetical hoops to impress the older kids. I had two older siblings – Kirsten, who’s three years older than me, and Justice, who’s a year older than me. We were close, as siblings go. But, even if we were close, there was always sibling rivalry. The final addition to our little group was Tyler Hall, my brother’s best friend, and our next-door neighbour. The four of us were the best of friends, and we all loved the same thing: music. Music is what held us together, what really cemented our friendship. It didn’t matter that Tyler wasn’t really related to us; he was like a brother to Kirsten, Justice, and me.
What about me? My name is Angel Simmons. I’m a small-town, 16-year-old girl who had a passion, and I’m probably just like you. This is my story… And also the story of how one summer can change your life, forever.
I tend to suck at these, but please just take a chance on my story... :P

I ran downstairs into the living room, my heart pounding as I found all my brothers gathered around Nefeli. Her eyes were frantic, scanning the room, desperately searching for me. The scream that bastard had let out earlier must have reached her... The moment our eyes met, she practically threw herself at me, wrapping her arms around me so tightly I could barely breathe. I stood frozen for a moment, unsure of what to do. I hugged her back anyway... Even though I had no idea what was going on. "Thank God you're safe" she murmured in my ear, her voice trembling, leaving me even more confused. I glanced at my brothers. They all looked just as lost as I was. Except for Aiden and Alex. They were motioning for me to hold on. "Of course I'm okay, Nefeli. What happened?" I asked, my heart tightening. I hated seeing her like this, so worried and panicked. "I-I heard Alex and Aiden talking in Italian!" she stammered, her eyes wide with panic. "They said something about the Mafia! Are we being threatened by the Mafia?" Her voice cracked, and tears threatened to spill from her brown eyes. The room fell silent for a moment. My brothers exchanged looks, and then, without warning, we all burst into laughter. Nefeli stared at us, completely confused. Cole, finally calming down, wiped his eyes and looked at her with a smile. "Love" he said, his voice smooth, "we're not being threatened by the Mafia." he let the words settle in the air for a second. "We are the Mafia." • • • _______________________________________________________ ⚠️ DISCLAIMER ⚠️ Mentions of abuse, violence, harsh language, bad mental health, and light depression!

The Brightest Stars
We admire our work with quiet smiles. I do a small chuckle and finally let all these sad moments become into memories that are worth remembering. Even if it means that those I loved so much might fade away; they will never be forgotten. I promise myself to do this... "Promise me that we will always remember and never forget," Nate quietly says. "What if we do?" I whisper. "What if we let the night become darker than the stars?" Nate turns, and takes small steps towards me. My heart is like a magnet bringing him closer as I turn towards him. He does that look I fell in love with the day we met. He's inches apart now and I'm left breathless. His whisper is as quiet as the moonlight shining through the windows of the class as he says, "Then I will find you to remind you of us. I'll remind you that stars shine brighter in the darkest nights..."Complete
