When I Turn 18.

Once I got to James' house, I told everyone, I took a deep breath before entering. Once I entered I walked into James Room. Luckily he was still awake. " James, we need to talk. " I said, sitting on his bed. James sighed but nevertheless nodded. " James, I'm going back to my 'Brothers'. " I said, allowing him to possess the information.

" Why? " James asked.

" I'm legally still in Allen’s custody, until New Years Eve, when I turn 18. " I said, quietly.

" There’s more, isn't there? " James asks.

" Yeah, James, I'm a part of The American Mafia. I'm the heiress. I would either move back to New York or stay here. " I said, watching James's reaction. He looked angry and hurt.

" So stay here. " James said.

" James, I don't know if I can. " I said, calmly.

" Aria, I like you, like, like you. But I can't and won't stay and watch you pick somewhere that isn't here. So I'm breaking up with you. " James said, sadly. I masked my sadness and got up. 

" James, you've decided to walk out of my life and I might never let you back in. But I will visit Emily and your Mother. You Mother accepts whatever I do as long as I visit. " I said, softly.

" I know, I'm walking out of your life, I don't wanna be in your life. " James said, coldly. I walked out and headed to my 'Brothers' house. I opened the door and saw an unfamiliar face. I text my 'Brothers' saying I'm home and in my room. I looked up and saw the unfamiliar face staring at me. It didn't bother me, but I walked to my room. I sighed. James doesn't accept my choices. It makes me sad, but I'm not going to cry over a stupid boy that spent care about me.

" Aria. " Allen said, entering my Room.

" Yes, Allen? " I asked, turning around. 

" I'm glad your home. " Allen said, looking at me. I nodded, sitting on my bed. Then Allen sat beside me. " You know you don't have to hide what you're feeling. " Allen said, putting his hands in mine.

" I know I don't. " I said, looking at my door.

" Who is it you're waiting for Aria? " Allen asked, looking at the door as well. I thought about telling him who I was talking about and its James.

" No one, important. " I said as Allen walked away from me.

" Goodnight Aria. " Allen said, walking out of the Room. I decided to go to bed as well. I have school tomorrow anyway.

When I woke up I wasn't hungry. So I got ready and left early. I didn’t want to see or talk to James.

I was one of the first people to class. Once I sat down, I put on my headphones and listened to American Soldier by Toby Keith.

After about half an hour class started, we had to act out Romeo and Juelite. The teacher gave up partners. Fortunately I was partnered with Ken. I smiled at Ken, who smiled back at me. Then he walked over to me and asked " What scene should we do? "

" Um… How about when they die? It shows how much they loved each other. " I suggested, as I saw James glaring at Ken. Ken didn't seem bothered though, so I shrugged it off.

" Oh my god!! Yes!! " Ken squealed, so loud I thought my eardrums burst. " We can do it at the park. We were gonna go there anyways. " Ken said, walking off as the bell rang.

After school I reluctantly went to the park.

" Hey, Aria. " Justin said, happily.

" Hi Ken, Justin and Thomas, James. " I said, with the same happy tone. I can't and won't let James know he hurt me. Then we began to act.

Scene.

Hoping she might die by the same poison, Juliet kisses his lips, but to no avail. Hearing the approaching watch, Juliet unsheathes Romeo's dagger and, saying, “O happy dagger, / This is thy sheath,” stabs herself. She dies upon Romeo's body.

Scene ends.

Once we were done they were hungry and offered to feed me as well but I refused. Then I went to my 'Brothers' house. As I entered, I saw the Man from yesterday. Whom I guess is my sperm donor.

" Hi. " He said, carefully.

" Hi. Pardon me but, who are you? " I said/asked, as he looked hurt.

" I'm your Father. " He said lovingly. I burst out laughing. He looked pissed. Called it suckers. I thought to myself.

" Look I figured you were my 'Father'. But why are you talking to me now? Why haven't you contacted me in my 17 years of life? " I said/asked, calming myself down.

" Aria, I'm sorry I wasn't a part of your life but I am now. " He said, sympathetically.

" I don't want to know you. " I said, beginning to walk away.

" You will get to know me, Aria! Whether you want to or not! " He yelled at me loudly. Bloody bastard. I don't need him.

I ate Dinner quietly and went to bed.
