Nice but over exaggerating.

Dahlia pov

I know who jaxon Armstrong is.

He is this annoying, self centered gang leader.

And he is hot.

Unfortunately

  he is 26, and trust me you don't want to get on the wrong side of him

Like I did.

I killed some guy that was in the same gang as jaxon.

And he wants revenge.

I don't think he wants closure. But who knows, maybe he actually does like his gang, thinks of them as his family.

It's been about 5 days, and I say that because I don't care anymore.

13:12 PM

I don't have any family apart from my brother.

That's what I originally thought.

And then my phone rang.

I was down stairs with all the guys except for chase and Ashley.

We were having a conversation about how we are gonna be able to take down the scorpos.

My phone ringtone was stupid.

That's what I thought anyway.

I haven't heard it go off for about 6 years.

When I was a teenager, I liked kpop and rock, and other weird things.

Great choice of style there Dahlia.

The song that played was

Heavydirtysoul by tøp.

I actually still kinda like that song.

My phone went off, and everybody looked toward where the noise was coming from.

I took my phone out of my pocket and picked it up.

Then I heard a voice I thought I had forgotten and would never hear again...

My aunt.

My god awful aunt.

I answered it in the voice I would normally give to somebody who served me in a shop.

Nice but over exaggerating.

With a nice fake smile to put the cherry on top.

On the phone,

"Dahlia? My aunt asks, even though she called my number. "yes?" I answer, trying to keep everything together. " its great hearing your voice again..." my aunt says, sounding oddly nice.

"I cant- you too." Is all I can reply back, "I would love to see how you and jasper are, do you know where he is?" She then asks out of the blue, I'm taken aback by her sudden question.

"no, sorry I don't..haven't been in touch with him..I don't know where he lives either." I reply back, not really knowing what to say, though I know where Jasper is, she doesn't need to know.

I shake my head towards Jasper, who gives me a slight tilt of his head, I mouthe at him, 'aunt" and he nods.

"do you have his phone number?" My aunt asks, I give a muffled laugh, and then reply,  "no, I don't..." because truthfully, I don't want to give his phone number to her, she doesn't deserve it.

"do you have any information on anything?" My aunt then asks, and I make the quick decision to come up with another snarky comment

"yeah..." I reply, "what?" She then asks from  "your parents probably pulled out to late" and about 2 seconds later she then clicks on to it, "excuse you!?"

Everyone in the room except jasper and Dahlia don't know who Dahlia is talking to...Ashley and chase come in and sit down...

"I said...your parents probably pulled out to late !" After her sudden shouting, I raise my voice to match hers.

"so did yours." My aunt then claps back, causing me to grow angrier, "at least I actually knew my parents..., unlike some one I know who goes by the name 'aunt'"

"ugh, your a pain in my ass Dahlia. You don't know anything..." she then comes up with, probably not even knowing what exactly to say to my come back.

"Ahah" I laugh, "thought you were straight?" I tell her, which makes her grow more annoyed with me. "I've had enough of this, I'm talking to your adoptive-" but she doesn't get very far when she brings up my adoptive parents.

"even speak his name and you are no family of mine." I say to her, immediately cutting her off from what she was going to say. "okay then...goodbye da-" and then I hang up.

"did you really have to insult her?" Jasper says, shaking his head at me in the process. "she deserved it. Always does." I reply, the others still don't know who I was taking to.

"who was she looking for?" Jasper then asks, "you." I reply, he looks shocked, but then his calm demeanor returns. "ugh why?" He says, "I don't know..." I then reply back, even though I'm sure it was a rhetorical question.

"what made you say her parents pulled out late?" Ashley then speaks up, talking to me. I laugh, 'she wanted to know if I knew anything else about ...anything so that's what I said"

"you don't like who that was?" Ashley asks, I shake my head in disgust, "yeah my aunt is a bitch," "it was your aunt?" Ajax then asks, I nod.

" yeah, don't worry...she hasn't seen me or even heard from me since I was like 10..." I say to them, looking back at jasper who then speaks up

"what does she even want this time." He asks me, again I shake my head, because honestly, I'm not really sure myself what she wanted.

"something tells me, brother that you've talked to her in the last 4 years.." I say to Jas, who looks at me and slightly nods his head.

"I have...and last time it was 'how much money have you got....can I borrow it? ....oh and can I also have a place to stay'" jasper says, crossing his arms.

"she always was like that though...." I reply, and then we head into a quiet, calm silence.
