K I N S L E Y S P O V

It's been a week since the whole "oh by the way, were in the mafia." talk. After Andrea left my room, I decided that I wasn't going to talk to my brother's and do the absolute most to annoy all of them.

It's Monday again. Luca, Andrea, Roman, and Rodrigo have already been in my room to wake me up and i'm honestly not having it today.

"I'm going to get Matteo." Rodrigo said, storming out of the room. I smirked and got out of bed. I was ready dressed and completely ready for school. Today I was wearing blue jeans and a black oversized t-shirt.

I grabbed my shoes and bag and hurriedly ran out of my bedroom and into Luca's which was across the hall. "She won't even open her eyes, Matteo! You need to get her up." Rodrigo said from downstairs.

"She doesn't even talk to me, what makes you think she wants to see me bright and early in the morning." Matteo grumbled. To be honest, I really did feel bad ignoring my brothers but it's what they get.

I hid behind the bed and waited for a minute. "Whatever, just stay here and i'll get her up." Matteo said. I heard my door open. "She's not in here." He said, worry slightly laced through his words. "She was just in here 5 minutes ago." Rodrigo said.

"Check the bathroom." I could hear the knocking on the door from Luca's room, and his door was shut. "Kins, you in here?" It was silent for a minute. "I'm coming in."

"She's not fucking in there." Matteo said. I covered my mouth to hold in the laughs. "She didn't go downstairs?" Matteo asked. "No, we would have seen her we were right there." Rodrigo said. "Call Roman and ash him is she's down there."

"Yea. Is Kinsley down there?" He asked. "Alright." It was silent for a second. "She's not down there either." He said. I heard their footsteps descend down the stairs.

A few minutes went by and there were multiple footsteps coming back up the stairs. "Kinsley are you up here?" Matteo yelled. No dear brother I am not.

"Ok, check your rooms. If she's not in there then i'll call Hudson." Matteo said, splitting up from the group. Luca's door opened and I shrunk even farther into the corner I was sitting in.

Luca went to his closet first. He was literally throwing thing's to see if I was in there. Then he walked to the corner I was in. He walked by twice. "She's not in here." He said, walking out.

I waited a bit longer in the room. It was starting to get uncomfortable sitting in the same spot so I got up slowly. "Hudson. Yea, did you see Kinsley leave the property at all?" Matteo asked. I moved towards the door to hear more. "Alright thanks." He said, kicking something on the other side.

"Kinsley if you're in this fucking house it's not gonna be pretty. Just come out." He yelled, making me slightly jump back. I stepped on one of the many things Luca had spread across his floor, giving my position up.

The door opened and in walked Matteo. His mouth hung open and his eyes were wide. I couldn't help but laugh, "I'm sorry- Your face." I said, pointing and laughing.

"Real fucking funny isn't it." He said, walking out the room. "It wa-" "Get to school." He said, walking into the office.

The ride to school was annoying. Matteo made all of us ride together because he saw no use in bringing three cars to school. So here we are, piled in the back of Roman's car.

"We wouldn't be fucking late if this idiot wouldn't have done what she did." Roman said, running another stop sign.

"Say something, Kinsley. God you haven't talked to any of us for a week." Rodrigo pleased as we pulled into a parking spot.

I got out of the car, throwing my backpack over my shoulder. I rushed inside, going straight to my math class.

"Kinsley. You're late." Mr. Jones said, a glare on his face. I shrugged my shoulders and went to the back desk, the one far far away from the group of guys. I pulled out my notebook and pencil. When I looked up, there were now 6 people sitting in front of me. I jumped in surprise.

"Why were you late?" Keaton asked. I shrugged, still writing the equation from the board. "That's not an answer sweetheart." He scooted his chair closer. I looked away, "Overslept." is all I said.

"Hey Owen." I said, looking at the boy sitting in front of me. He smiled, "Hey."

I remember my brother's rules but I really don't care. I tend to give people a chance before I do anything. "Oh so you say hi to him and not me." Tate said, crossing his arms. I laughed "Hi Tate."

You could say math class was kind of interesting. Mr. Jones was sick last week so we had a substitute teacher take his place. The teacher was chill and said we could do whatever we wanted as long as we turned our work in. The boy's took that as a 'talk to the new girl and see what shes like.'

I understood that Ty had major anger issues. Owen and Tate were the funny ones that didn't really care about what anyone else said. Luke didn't really talk. Jhett was quiet but really nice. And then Keaton was just there. He was an asshole but could be nice when he wanted. He even offered to do my paper for me. Oh, and every girl is obsessed with him.

"You seven." Mr. Jones said, pointing at us. "Stop talking or a detention after school." He said, turning back around. Keaton scoffed and crossed his arms over his chest.

I turned my attention back to whatever he was writing on the board. The bell shortly rung after that and I packed up my stuff to leave. "Going somewhere?" Keaton said, following me through the halls. "Art." I answered making my way around the people.

"Come sit at our table at lunch." He said as we stopped at my locker. "What? No, are you crazy. My brothers already hate you. What would they say when they saw me sitting there with you. It'd be a whole ass repeat of last Monday night." I said, bending down to get my other notebook.

"Last Monday night. What happened?" He asked. I simply shook my head and closed my locker, walking to the art room. "I guess the guys and I will come sit by you then." He said. "No you wo-" "I don't take no for an answer." He said, turning around to walk to his class.

I spotted Amanda and made my way over to her table. A good thing about this class was that we could sit wherever we wanted. "Hey can I sit here?" I asked her. She gave me a small smile "Sure!" She moved her bag and I sat beside her.

"So, Keaton said that him and his group were going to sit with us at lunch." I said, worried to see what she would say. "That's fine. I wont be there for lunch, neither will Reece and Harper is home sick." She said.

"What. You guys are just gonna leave me with them." She laughed and then replaced her smile with a sympathetic one. "Yea. Sorry Kins." I sighed and placed my chin on my hand.

Its now lunch time and i'm purposefully taking my time getting to the cafeteria because who wouldn't? I grabbed my water bottle and made my way to the table I've been sitting at.

As soon as I walked in Roman glared at me. I simply looked the other way and continued to walk. Sure enough, they were already sitting there.

"Hey guys." I said, putting a very fake smile on my face. "Hey Kins!" Owen said. "About time you showed up, took you forever." Tate said, patting the seat next to him.

I pulled out my phone, seeing I got a text from my favorite brother ever.

K (Kinsley) R (Roman) R: why the hell are you sitting with them. K: my friends aren't here. And they were here before I even got in the cafeteria.

I looked up to see the tables eyes on me. "What?" I asked, "Tell Romeo to stop looking at us like that." Keaton said, pointing to where Roman was sitting.

R: ok? And we specifically told you not to sit or talk to them. So come sit by me.

"Woah were we the topic of discussion in your families talk?" Tate said, looking at my message. I slapped his arm. "Were we?" I looked up at him. "Yes. Yes you were." I answered truthfully. Keaton kept his eyes on Tate. They were doing that thing my brothers do, communicating with their eyes.

K: it's not that big of a deal, Rome. R: Kins im not fucking playing just come over here.

I read it then turned my phone off, sighing. "You alright?" Keaton asked, looking down at me. "Let me know if my bitch ass brother comes over here." I said, laying my head in my arms.

A few minutes later I hear shuffling. As I look up I see Roman coming towards us. I rolled my eyes and looked at Keaton. "Don't say anything." I warned him. He simply nodded, a smirk stuck on his face.

"Come on." He said, grabbing my arm to pull me up. "No, you can have all those bitches all over you at your table but as soon as I sit down with a single fucking guy you get all defensive." I said, pulling my arm out of his grip.

"I don't have time for this, Kins. Just get up and go sit with Rigo or something." Roman ran his hands through his hair. "Come on dude. I get that you don't like us or whatever but we aren't gonna hurt her." Keaton said, his gaze on me.

"I really don't give a fuck. I don't want my sister around someone like you." Roman spat out the words as if it were venom. "Like him? Do you know what you're apart of? I'm not worried about what they do cause i'm not a part of it. I'm family with you, I'm involved with what you guys do." I said, pushing his arm away again.

He looked taken aback by what I said but I was honestly so tired of all of my brothers controlling just about everything I do. "Fine. If they hurt you, not my fucking fault." He said, walking away.

I looked around, the cafeteria was silent. The table looked at me in awe. "Wake me up when lunch is over."
