Emilia

chapter 77

Soooo I don't really know where I'm going with this chapter been quite some time since I added a full chapter but here we are. (This side note was written before starting writing so I don't even know what's going to happen as I have no idea what to write so it might be a bit of a mess)

Emilia smiled as she entered school the next day, she was looking forward to seeing Antonio. They had agreed to take things slow so they weren't in a official relationship but they both knew they felt the same way towards each other.

Just like the other day, Dante sent Matteo ahead. "If this girl gives you trouble again please tell me" he said. He still wanted revenge after seeing Lilly trying to hit his sister.

He didn't know the full extent of the bullying. Only their dad did, but it wouldn't stop Dante.

Emilia agreed knowing now it was best. Her father never once made her feel weak and pathetic, she wanted to be strong like her family clearly was but she knew she had a family to rely on and as the two siblings entered the school and she saw her friends, she knew she had them too.

She was going to be okay.

Or at least she thought.

School was good. She had most classes sitting next to her friends or Zach.

She was closer to Zach than her other cousins and despite not really seeing each outside of school due to Zach, his brother and dad still getting their house sorted and Zach catching up with school work, she enjoyed his company. She could see many similarities between the two, and Zach was always there if she needed to vent about Alice, just like Emilia was always there for Zach.

Lunch time came around quickly and her last class was with Antonio so she found herself walking in the cafeteria holding hands with him. They only let go when they both carried their food back to the table.

They joined their friends. Zach wasn't sat with them today, instead he was with his own group of friends but he sent his cousin a smile and a knowing look regarding the hand holding.

Antonio wasn't one to get possessive over Emilia, but he was quite protective. So when his phone went off and he looked down he almost lost it.

"What's wrong" Emilia asked. She had finished her lunch and was just leaning on his shoulder whilst talking to Sophia.

"Just that stupid desperate bitch" he s apped looking at his phone.

Lilly had sent him the picture of Emilia breaking down with himself edited out of it. She had also written dump her or the whole school will know.

"What did she say" Emilia asked.

"Wants me to dump you. I've had enough with her" Antonio said getting up. He wasn't going to do anything drastic. "I'll be back, I'm just going to have a word with Dante" he said.

"No. I haven't told sny of them about us" Emilia quickly said.

"Don't worry, I won't mention it" Antonio left the table and headed over to the table Dante was sat at. He of course was surrounded by cheerleaders. One was even sat on his lap.

Antonio rolled his eyes. "We need to talk" he stated.

"Do we?" Dante had no intention on leaving the table.

"Yes I need a favour" Antonio practically demanded.

"I don't give out favours to little kids" Dante waved him off.

"Fine. Ill just make sure the whole school knows what your second Instagram account is" he said like it was no big deal.

Not long after everything came out about Lexi, Antonio figured out who her online bully was. Dante.
