ROCCO'S POV Today is the first day of school for Alina after coming back to us.
We've all made plans for school. And by all I mean my brothers and I.
We will not be letting any slimy disgusting boys even look at Alina. No one will ever be worthy for her.
We heard Alina's worries about not having any freedom so I made sure the boys understood we couldn't go stopping everyone from talking to her but we could death stare them from a distance.
I don't want Alina to ever have her heart broken by someone.
I need to protect her as I was unable to when I was younger.
It's as if I have something to prove that I am a good brother and to show how much i love her.
ALINA'S POV Today was my first day of school here in Italy.
I was currently getting ready after having put all of my clothes away from yesterday. There was too much in my opinion but i doubt they'd listen to me. I was very grateful.
No one had woken me up as it was early. I needed to make a good first impression.
People seemed to like me back in the U.S, so hopefully these people would.
Nothing about my body was better. I took the last of my tablets. I might be able to get some in school if i go to the nurse. I'd rather get them from a store though.
I decided to put my hair in french plaits as it stayed out of my face all day that way.
I put on my uniform and i was very happy with how i was looking.
The uniform hung perfectly to my body.
I got my bag that was kind of falling apart and put some notebooks, my pencil case and other little things I'd need in it, all thanks to my Mom.
Her stock of stationary was so good! They even had the pens that were liquid ink. I knew they were pricey. I choose them. I was very excited to use them.
I would make sure not to loose them.
I got my new phone and took my bag downstairs with me knowing some of my family would be downstairs already.
I needed everyone's contacts in my phone.
My dad, Rocco and Romeo were here.
No Marco today. They were all in the same places as they were yesterday.
I walked up to Romeo with my fist outstretched. He smiled and returned my fist bump.
I sat opposite Rocco and asked for a green smoothie, whilst sliding a dollar in front of him.
It wasn't much, but i didn't have a lot of cash to use sparely like this. I just wanted to make sure I'm not taking advantage of all of his smoothie ingredients and his time.
Rocco smirked and slipped the dollar into his pocket and continued prepping the smoothie.
Happily i turned around and went to my dad.
"Good morning!"
"Good morning Bambina, you are looking great in your uniform. It really suits you" He said.
"Thank you, is there anyway you can put everyone's contacts in my phone for me please?" I asked.
"Of course, as long as you can do something for me?"
I was confused.
"Depends on what it is i need to do" i replied.
"I need you to accept this gift of mine"
Another gift already. They are definitely spoiling me too much.
I nodded hesitantly.
My dad smiled at me, and left the room.
I looked towards my brothers hoping they could give me a clue on what's happening.
They both shrugged at me.
"You ready for today Alina? Because I'm sure you'll have an amazing day! Don't forget that if anything happens you come up to us or go to a teacher, okay?" Romeo said.
"Yep, thank you" i said quietly starting to get nervous.
My dad came back with a bag and a little box in his hands.
He handed me the little box urging me to open it.
So i did.
Inside was a bracelet. It was silver and it had a pendant in the middle.
I loved it!
"Thank you, thank you!" I nearly screamed at my dad whilst hugging him.
I had never owned any pieces of jewellery in my life,
My dad took my hands in his.
"I need you to promise me that you will never take this off, ok?" He asked me.
"Of course" i agreed. I'm not stupid, this definitely has something to do with security.
I'm just chuffed to have a bracelet!
"Also i have this bag for you. I cant allow you to go to school with a broken bag Alina" He said quietly.
"But it still works, I don't need a new one" i argued.
"Please Alina, just allow me to give this to you. I don't want you to have broken things. I'm willing to buy everything you possible need new for you!" He argued back.
I caved in and took the bag, whilst giving him my phone so he could put the contacts in.
I took everything out of my bag and into the new one.
I had my smoothie with Rocco who gave me a thumbs up and a hug for today and put my phone in my new bag.
The rest of the boys except Marco and Matheo were rushing downstairs at different times half dressed searching for their stuff. The 2 oldest apparently were out doing some business.
Mom came down and greeted me whilst also yelling at the boys that she sorted everything for them yesterday and that they should be ready.
It was 7;20 at them moment and the boys needed to leave in 10 minutes and they still weren't ready.
Mom was handing them all of these different stuff that they apparently couldn't find.
I found it funny as me and Rocco sat there ready enjoying our breakfast.
None of the boys except Romeo had breakfast as they were too late.
Adrian and Luca wished me a good morning and good luck whilst running outside.
I knew Adrian wanted to cuddle me but he couldn't.
The boys went in two separate cars with a driver whereas i went with my parents.
We went 1o minutes later as we had to talk to the principal.
We arrived at school and I didn't like how big it was. There were separate building that were still apart of their school.
Dude, I don't want to have to run through the rain some days just to get to my next class.
This is going to make my first day and finding my classes so much harder.
I'm not going to bore you with the details of my meeting with the principal.
She was a lovely woman and was happy to see me back with my family. I think she was happier to have 7 kids from the same family go through the school.
She told me that I'm welcome in her office anytime and that i should come to her if i had any problems. My parents made sure that she would deal with any problems that may arise.
She gave me my timetable and i was ready to go.
My parents both hugged me and said i could phone them and they'd pick me up whenever. I was grateful but I wouldn't waste their time like that.
I walked into the school and saw them standing their watching me until i was out of sight.
Lessons had already started but i had a late note from the principal.
I apparently had maths in block H, room 11T.
I was in the right block and it was only a matter of time before i found the room.
Luckily it was easy to find.
I stood outside the classroom and straightened my clothes, moved any stray hairs from my face and composed myself before knocking the door and going in.
"I'm guessing you're Alina?" The teacher questioned me.
Jeez, I've just walked in and she knows everything about me
"Uh yes i am" i replied
"I understand your late as its your first day. My name's miss Marino, why don't you introduce yourself to the class?"
Girl, no. I don't want to do that.
I did though. I went to the front of the room and looked at everyone. There were a couple of boys, but the majority were girls and they didn't seem to like me from the faces they were making.
"I'm Alina. I'm new here as i moved from the U.S" I said and looked to my teacher hoping it would be enough.
She nodded and directed me to sit in the free seat between the girls that were making faces at me.
Noooooo! That's not what i wanted but there were no free seats anywhere else in the classroom.
I walked over to them with a smile on my face trying to be nice.
I sat down and took my pencil case and notebook out.
I got my pen out ready and excited to use it.
"Why do you have a fake Louis Vuitton bag? Are you poor? Cause you smell and look like it" a girl on my left whispered to me, whilst 4 girls around me stared.
"What?' I asked not really listening,
"Why are you here if you're poor? You obviously don't belong here"
"I'm not poor." I replied and writing down what was on the board trying to ignore them.
"Yeah right! This whole room stinks since you've walked in. We need to open up some windows, i think i might vomit" another girl said.
The girls all had a good laugh about it whilst i got upset.
They backed off for a while actually having to do the work.
"Right class, who can answer this question?" Miss Marino asked indicating to a problem on the board.
I knew that it was 5, but one of the girls around me had already put her hand up.
"Yes Lucia?" The teacher asked the girl, who i now know the name of.
"It's 15" she said.
Wrong.
"Nope, not right, anyone else?" The teacher asked.
I put my hand up.
"Yes Alina?"
"The answers 5, Lucia hadn't divided by the denominator." I said confidently
"Correct, well done Alina!" The teacher said smiling at me. I smiled back
I looked back at my book and saw all of the girls staring at me.
"You're so dead bitch!" Lucia scream whispered at me.
At least I'm not a dumb bitch.
I sighed and just continued doing my stuff.
I kept smiling at how good my pen was. It was so smooth and it didn't smudge. It made my notes look amazing.
The bell rang indicating that the class was over.
I packed my bag slowly waiting for the girls to leave.
I smiled at my teacher and left trying to find my next class.
I turned left but was shoved. I flew into the door opposite us and braced myself for impact, but luckily it was the bathroom door, so it just swung open for me.
I turned around wanting to see who shoved me but I was met with the 5 girls from math barricading the door to the bathrooms.
4 of them stepped forward caging me.
"Do you think you're funny?" Lucia asked me.
"Um no, don't think I've ever claimed to think such a thing" i replied.
I don't think she found that response funny either as she punched me in the face.
"What the hell?" I gasped.
"You made me look like an idiot in maths class, which i am not! I am the star student and your poor ass wont be taking shit from me" she screamed.
It's not my fault you were wrong.
"Look, I don't want any trouble, okay! It was just one class, i wont do it from now on" i tried reasoning with her.
"Oh, but the damage is already done. Miss Marino is going to think I'm an idiot compared to you. It's only fair i give you some damage. Get her bag"
I tried fighting them off of me but they were too strong. It was 2 against 1 whilst the other girl took my bag and gave it to Lucia.
She tipped everything out of my bag.
"I saw those pens you were using. They looked pretty nice. I want them" she said.
"No, they're mine. You have your own pens." I argued.
"Are these your only pens, you poor bitch? What are you going to do if i take them?" She said as she tipped out my whole pencil case except my pens that I specifically choose from the cupboard.
They were my only pens.
"But.....they'——they're mine" I argued getting visibly upset.
"They're mine now. I don't think there's any room in this school for fake designer bags, is there girls?" She asked. The girls all agreed.
She took my empty bag into a stall and chucked it in the toilet. She didn't finish there, as she flushed my chain as well.
My bag was getting destroyed.
I tried fighting the girls off me but nothing budged.
"Bianca, do you want to help me out teaching her a lesson?" Lucia asked.
The girl who gave Lucia my bag agreed quite happily.
She stepped up to me and punched me in the face and stomach.
I started fully crying as i was in so much pain. She hit just below my ribs.
"You're crying like a baby, you're actually so pathetic" Bianca laughed.
Lucia decided to punch in the same areas whilst also kicking my knees.
I could feel blood trickling down from nose. I was sobbing mess.
They didn't attack much on my face probably because they are my visible areas.
Bianca got my ankle a couple of times as well.
Lucia finally decided she had had enough, and called all of her minions off of me.
I fell straight to the floor in a heap.
She knelt down and held my chin in her hand.
"Don't think this is the last time this will happen. It's not over yet bitch"
She dropped my head and they all walked out laughing as if nothing had even happened.
I cried for a while on the floor, before attempting to get up.
I just fell back down so i came up with a new plan. I crawled to the stall whilst collecting my stuff off of the floor and lifted myself up with the help of the toilet.
I looked down at my bag that is now all wet with toilet water. I fished it out and started crying harder.
My dad present is ruined.
I put it on the floor to dry it i locked the stall and found the best way to sit whilst in agonising pain.
I saw stars a couple of times.
I got my phone out and started cleaning my face. Luckily there were no bruises but it was very sore. All i had to do was remove the blood from my nose. At least my parents wont ask any questions.
I stayed there for the whole day, wanting to go see the nurse but not being able to stand for long enough.
ROMEO'S POV Mom and dad said today that we should look out for Alina. We all happily agreed, so I'm here now with Adrian looking for Alina in the canteen. None of use are in any of her classes so we don't know what classes she had today.
We waited for about 20 minutes but she never came. So we both went to the library, the courtyard and any other place people ate lunch.
We couldn't find her anywhere, and she hadn't texted us or called us saying she was upset or hurt, so we assumed she had found some friends and was eating in a classroom, which some teachers allow them to do.
Rocco texted saying he would keep an eye out for Alina, even with his lunchtime practice.
"You think Alina's ok? She hasn't asked for us but we also haven't seen her" Adrian asked me sounding panicked.
"Bro chill. I'm sure she is fine. We've told her she can contact us any time. Plus I'm sure she's made soo many friends she's having a hard time talking to them all. We'll talk to her tonight about her day, and make sure she doesn't have any slimy boys around her that could hurt her, ok" i told him trying to reassure him.
We had no more time to look as the bell rang for our next class.
I was worried but considering how likeable Alina and her personality is,she definitely going to have a bundle of friends.
Adrian and Alina aren't in the same classes as Alina is in the top set whereas he is in the middle set.
He was distraught when he found out they wouldn't be together and had been panicking ever since
I went to class not being able to wait to hear about Alina's day.
