Us And The Italian Mafia

Start over

Bella

Start over-ROSIE

I wanted to stand up but it hurt so much.I'm starting to think Father meant it about wanting to kill me last night.But at least I'm not dead right?

Oh what the heck!Being dead would be so much better!Death would be fine compared to this f****d up world.Maybe its normal,being hit,stabbed and all in all abused by your own parents.

Footsteps coming in my direction snapped me out of my thoughts.They sounded heavy and large, as if it was more than one person.

I quickly pretended to be unconscious so that I don't get hurt even more.Because you see,my padre doesn't like it when someone heals and that happens to be me.I started to hear the footsteps getting closer and closer.

(SPANISH for- "father"

Then I heard muffled voices,my father and brothers.Great!"Padre,are you okay though?"I heard my brother,Matteo ask."Please,as if they could hurt me.Either way we landed a deal with that bastard of a leader,the little s**t sprained my ankle".My father said,I guess to what Matteo said.

After a while my father spoke up,"I hope she's not dead"."But if she is,we will just send a casket"he chuckled to himself.

Send who a casket?Send me where exactly?

"Yeah,she is going to be useful anyway so....",my brother Vincent trailed of.

Vincent was always the careless s**t of a brother.He supported our father every step of the way.To be honest,I was mostly scared of him and my father combined.He would help our father torture me at a very young age.Vincent hated me with all his heart and made excuses to beat the s**t out of me.He took advantage of being my fathers favorite,that's cause his the oldest and according to my father,'the next king of the most powerful Spanish Mafia,the Hernando Spanish Mafia'.

But on the other hand Matteo was the nice and gentle one.I loved him because he always stood up for me.Even when my parents kicked me out to let me freeze to death,Matteo would secretly sneak a blanket out.He showed me love even after Mama died when I was 4 and when he was 6.

"Oh my... mierde!What the f**k Padre?We agreed you wouldn't touch her as long as I joined your stupid attack "Matteo shouted I think he just spotted me now.I had my eyes closed so,yeah...I heard Vincent chuckling. "Vincent,how could you do this to our sister?!We should be protecting her but you go and do this!"."Its fun,you wanna join next time" Vincent replied.

(Spanish for-"s**t" "father")

"Boy,don't speak to me like that,I am your father .Or you'll end up like our dear princesa Bella here.And since when do I keep promises?"Father spoke back in an almost calm voice. "Annabella

,I'm so so sorry "Matteo said making his way to a not so unconscious me.

(Spanish for- "Princess")

I felt a hand on my waist and quickly opened my eyes.There in front of me were Father,Matteo and Vincent.They looked rather messed up though.I looked at my father and his suit was all drenched in blood,haha,who goes on an attack wearing a f*****g suit?He also had a huge scar on his face and blood even on his hair,I couldn't care less about the bastard.Serves him right!Although I wanted to stand up and laugh in his face I was curious to know how the war went down.

I slowly looked at Matteo,besides pitty and regret in his eyes I saw his wounds.I could feel my heart drop as I saw blood oozing from his skin.A tear rolled down my cheek and he bent down to me.I immediately hugged him and he hugged me back .In the middle of a really emotion filled hug,my f*****g father spoke."Bella,I see you didn't die,good for you"he spoke and chuckled to himself.

"b***h has guts,I guess all the Hernendaz members are strong",Vincent spoke sarcastically.I always wanted to chop that tongue of his up together with something else.

"Okay,now you must get your whole face done.Take care of yourself,do what girls do.Make sure to not embarrass us at the Mafia gala",father spoke the last words harshly.I scrunched my nose in confusion,when has he ever cared about my looks.I for sure always look battered and bruised.

So this means we are going to the annual Mafia gala where all the biggest Mafias of each region go.Our Mafia is the only one here in Spain because we killed all the others.Usually bad things go down and boy is it fun when it's not happening to you.Maybe I'll be lucky this year and old guys can keep their hands of me this time.

I was snapped out of my thoughts by my father grabbing my hair roughly and bending down to whisper in my ear."Now go make yourself presentable and less hideous,princesa" ,his voice sent a chill down my spine.He quickly stood up and shouted,"I said go get ready you worthless piece of trash!"

(SPANISH for- "princess")

The thing was,I couldn't stand up at the moment so....

"I can't stand up",I said very embarrassed.Now he would know and take advantage of me.I looked down at my legs as he chuckled and went away.I looked at my side and Matteo was still there,not that he would leave me with that psychopath."Let me carry you upstairs¿Sí?Matteo spoke breaking the silence.I felt guilty as he was badly injured."I think I'll manage today,Matt.And besides, your really hurt you might want those stitched up".Matteo planted a smile on his face and carried me non the less.Who am I kidding,I couldn't have carried myself up to my room.

♧Bella's bedroom and bathroom♧

Once in my room,Matteo set me on the toilet in my bathroom with the lid on as he was preparing a bubble bath for me.I missed warm water,you might be asking yourself why I missed it.Well my father believes that when in training,you don't get special treatment,not that I get any and warm water isn't special treatment right?The training has been hell.

"You can bath now Bella"."Thank you".Then suddenly I remembered,"And you can come and I'll stitch your cuts,they don't look deep"

"Okay sure.I prefer your stitches over the infirmary doctor ones anyway".

After a well deserved bath I bandaged and disinfected my wounds in my bathroom.While I was staring at myself in the mirror I kind of saw that my braces were dispatched on one tooth.Thank you father!

I went to my closet and took out some clothes.I wore an oversized hoodie and sweat pants to cover up my scars because they tend to get annoying to look at.

______________________________

After a while I heard a knock on my door and asked who it was because I didnt want it to be Father."Its Matt" so I shouted a 'come in'.

He came into my room and got on my bed making it deep at its end."Stitch me",he sounded like a baby.But I loved him either way.What I didn't fail to notice was how weird he was being.I think his hiding something.

I sit up on my bed and ask,"What's wrong with you?"Matteo sat up straight and just shrugged as I reached the first aid box from under my bed.I always had it cause ,you know.I started to disinfect the small cuts and scrapes around his torso.He wouldn't stop flinching every single time.

He cleared his throat after a while and started,"Bella...".I knew he wanted to tell me something from the start."Yeah" I responded now just stitching his cuts that weren't too deep."Father told me you'll be,um... "he stopped."I won't be what?"my nerves start to kick in and instinctively my heart rate raises.Anything that comes from him is never too great."You'll be moving houses and you won't ne attending your school anymore.Obviously I think we'll all be moving with you.Im not sure what he meant about that though"he quickly said and started to examine my face for a reaction.

I mean what was I expecting,for him to send me to Disney land?School is the one place I felt free and at least okay.I can't drop out now,just senior year left.I wanted to go away from this place.Just one sentence shatters all my dreams and hope,hope that I'll be free.

Without even noticing,tears start to fall from my cheeks."No,no,no"I say bearly above a whisper.This infuriates me.This is not happening to me!"No,please no.I'm not dropping out!I'd rather die than be stuck with him forever".Matteo just held my shoulders and forced me to look at him.

"Hey,hey your not dropping out,I made sure of it.Your just....gonna go to a new school,okay?"."What!New school!"

My life is over!

"Tomorrow I'll take you to school and you'll get your things".Tears ran down my face.I'm positive that snort is also running from my nose.

I just can't start over.
