Ben:
"There's no point in fighting with you, is there?" My boss asked, dejectedly. I stay silent. I'm making my way through life. I've got Aiden and Rosa to take care of and I'm doing fine. We're getting by and Rosa's having a good childhood. And that's what matters. As long we can keep Rosa happy and healthy, I don't really care. 

I'm an 18 year old boy, still in high school with a part-time job and a family to take care of. I can be reckless and rash and sometimes I might not be thinking straight. But I'll decide what's best. I'm their guardian and I'll do what I think is right. I've made it so far. I'm sure I can go a little further.

Aiden:
I put my head down on the desk, my arms covering my head as I cried. I don't want to become like our father; the same father Rosa luckily never met.  I don't want her to be scared of me.  I don't know if I'll be angry at her again. I don't deserve her but I don't want to let her go. The one person that can destroy my world and I'm scared she might be afraid of me.

"Aiden has his priorities straight unlike most people our age. Sure he goes fucking around half the time, but family is always his first priority. Rosa is his first priority," He emphasized. "We're the only thing that's keeping him grounded. Imagine what his life would be like if we weren't here." He would be destroying himself if anything happened. And he's only 15.

Rosa:
Rosa is sweet and good-natured and almost always happy. She learnt her manners early and always used them. She's smart for her age and is always eager to learn new things and if she doesn't understand anything, she'll tug on our jeans to explain. She has never had a hassle with anything, making it easier for Ben and I to raise her.

Rosa sat with me outside, talking about nothing in particular. I love sitting and just chatting with Rosa. She has a big imagination and always makes stories in her mind. It might be a small story about a ladybug or an entire biography of a fox.

All She Ever Was by SammyDBunce

Book 2 of the "used to be" series, Abby was used to her mother's erratic behavior growing up. Her sister took most of the blunt when it came to it, but then her sister leaves for college, and now it's all on her shoulders to take care of her mother. Yeah her sister sends money to make sure the lights stay on and that they're both eating, but it's not the same as when she was there. Sometimes her mother goes on her med, but most the time she can't get her to take them. It's a lot to handle for one sixteen year old, but she would never tell anyone that she needs help, she wouldn't know what might happen if she did. Then, as if she had wished on a star, her father show's up to save the day, or at least that's what he's acting like he's doing. She hadn't seen him since she was six and her mom had loaded her and her sister up into the car and drove off in the middle of the night, leaving nothing behind but a not saying "don't follow me" Now she has to adjust to new siblings and a life so much different then she ever knew and on top of that, she's in love with her best friend and feels like all she does is mess things up when it comes to them. .... I lock my jaw, crossing my arms and looking away, I know she's right, but I don't want to admit it. I look back at her, "Then what, I'm supposed to go live with you in your apartment three hours away, all my friends are here, and you have a life of your own, you don't need to be taking care of a teenager." The expression still on her face, "That's not what I was suggesting, I would take you in a heartbeat, but there's another option." My anger slightly fading as I look at her, confused on what her "other option" could be. "What are you talking about?" She looks at me, her face softening a bit, "Dad-"

Book #3 in The Fire series BLAKE RIVERA "You're the leader of a gang." Aiden yells. I look up at him. "You don't think I know that?" I yell back. "I am doing everything I can to protect my people!" "Your people are being murdered. You're in a war you don't even know is happening." "I know what's going on out there. I know what's happening." "Then why aren't you doing anything to stop it?" I slam my hands on the desk and stand up. "I am doing everything I can!" I yell anger laced in my voice as it flowed through my veins. Suddenly the lights went out; a flashing red light comes on as alarms sound. "You need to do more." Aiden says. "Otherwise this. It's never going to stop." "They're attacking." I realize. "They're always attacking. And they're not going to stop until we're dead." "Or surrender." I mumble and Aidens head snaps up to look at me. "You won't. You can't." "No, what I can't do is kill Felix." "The man you loved isn't there anymore. Can't you see that? He's gone. A monster wears his skin. What's it going to take before you realize that?" I shake my head. "Evacuate. Make sure everyone gets out of here. No one dies today." "Well, someone should. And we both know who it needs to be." Aiden says before he leaves the room. I know Aiden is right, but I can't kill Felix, even if he keeps trying to kill me. I shake my head and sit back down. Just because everyone else was leaving didn't mean I had to also. Maybe I can talk some sense into him. I sigh. I've tried to already, but maybe this time it will be different. Maybe I should tell him the truth. Maybe I should tell him Nadia is his daughter. The door to my planning room is thrown open but I stay seated. I look up as men flood into the room, soon followed by Felix. His emotionless eyes find mine and he cocks his gun. "You should have run with the others."

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!

Aiden asked sticking his hands in his pocket and shifting his weight. "Monitor me?" "Yeah no relapsing right? " He said giving me a grin. " Sure. I'll just text my mom to let her know, that I'm getting food with you to do lines, and to contact my therapist. Well maybe not in that order, I don't want her to worry."
