Finding myself

19. She's what now?

Day 15

Christian POV

Is what Luca said true? I mean it could be. We don't know her for sure. Is she just a bitch? Is that why she's not been talking to us at all? She's trying to conceal her true identity. If that's the case I don't know if I'll be able to house such a person. Rules are definitely in order.

What did the doctor mean when he said your ribs aren't fully healed? Is that why she had passed out the first time we met? I thought she was just scared shitless but maybe there is more to the story that I don't know.

I need to give her the benefit of the doubt. Ribs don't just brake themselves, do they? Someone must have hurt her, or she simply fell. I have a feeling it's not the latter.

The doctor broke me out of my thoughts so suddenly asking us to leave to room. That's odd. He already talked about the injuries why would we leave the room? Either way, I obliged and left the room, not asking questions.

I will listen in tho. Whatever he's going to say will be important. The shock I felt when I heard the words that left this man's mouth was unimaginable. She's what now?

How can she be pregnant? She's 16 for crying out loud! Is she really what Luca said she was? I wanted to give her the benefit of the drought but she did this to herself. I don't know how I'm supposed to believe whatever excuse she has, she clearly is living up to the reputation we all heard Luca explain.

After the doctor explained the legal issue, she looked into our detection. My idiot brothers were all cramming the door with their mouths open wide unsure as to what they were supposed to do.

Shock flows through her feathers slowly morphing into a look of annoyance when turning back to the doctor.

"Yes, I know, how far along am I? I need to know who the father is." a look of rage filled her features. It didn't look like it was directed toward us. She's probably mad at her baby daddy. The man she willingly had sex with. Why the fuck is she mad at him? He's probably another 16-year-old boy who didn't know what he was doing.

One thing that stood out in that sentence is the fact that she for one remembers every single time she had sex wanting the date of how far along she is. Two, she would have slept with multiple boys in a short period of time. And third, she knew she was pregnant and didn't tell anyone. None of us knew. That hurts a bit, she didn't trust us enough. I need to get her to trust me. Trust is everything, it's the glue that holds a family together and in this moment we need our glue back.

Marianna POV

At this moment. I just don't care if my brothers accept me being pregnant. What am I supposed to do about it? If they abuse me I can't change a thing. I can only make sure my child is safe. That's all I can do. I'm going to be a mom and the sooner I accept this the sooner I'll be able to get out of here.

"I told you she was a slut" I hear Luca mutter. I only sat there not saying anything. If I say anything I will out myself. I'll have to tell them everything if I deny this.

"Luca shut the fuck up. Just for once." Alex replies. From what I've learned Luca and Alex are the closest in this family. Alex seems to be kinder than Luca, but from my research, Benoit is the nicest of them all.

Christian stepped forward willing to talk to me. "We can bring you home now. Your concussion is supposed to be a lot better in about a week. So that's when you will start school. If you feeling up to it Allie can bring you to the mall later this week. You guys could become friends."

If I'm being honest I did want to be friends with Allie. She seemed like a nice girl. She was more girly than I was and I feel like I need a more optimistic friend. Or even just a friend in general. People don't approach me and I'm not going to go out of my way to just talk to someone. We all know how that ended last time I was in a good mood.

If we just go shopping maybe we could become friends?

"Sure, I need new clothing anyways," I answered getting up and grabbing my clothes from the chair beside me. I don't exactly like being in only a hospital gown in front of all these people.

"Fucking slut" I heard Luca whisper before I left. While walking past him I bump my shoulder as hard as I can into his.

"Not any worse than you, I can do research too," I responded closing the bathroom door before he could answer.

I don't slut shame. But if someone calls me a slut, when I quite literally never had mutually consented sex is quite low. But I can always go lower. I can always hit them where it hurts. That is exactly what I didn't do to Luca. I could have gone with something involving his career which would have created quite a chock.

Once my white crop top and black sweats were on I exited the room. Ready for the next week of bed rest. If I said that my head was not pounding to the point that it could probably spray brain mush everywhere around me, I would be lying. But supposedly it was not going to change for the next 3-4 days. That's 72-96 hours. I'm going to go insane.

I've had horrible writer's block lately. It's like I know what I was to write but to get to it, I need to write like 3 chapters. I've had one idea which I think will be a good twist in the story, but I just don't know how I'm going to get there. The romance portion of this story will start soon enough and her relationship with her brothers will get better eventually. I'm sorry if it's too slow for you.

If you guys have any tips at all for how I can improve my writing or just this book in general let me know!

Are you guys into Timothée Chalamet lately? Or even the Willy Wonka movie?

I didn't really like it tbh. It wasn't anything special. I don't really get the hope lmao.

Thanks for 1.5k reads!!
