Chapter 8

Miley POV

My head was filled with clouds, but then suddenly the clouds turned to a huge thunderstorm. It began pouring rain and every strike of lightening and thunder sent a shooting pain through me until my head was just killing me…I pushed my eyes open putting my hand on my head, the clouds were gone and all that remained was the pain and the white roof above me a chandelier hanging from it. I sat up confused...what the hell had happened? Where the heck was I? What the hell had happened last night? I let out a groan gazing around the room confused...

It was white, the bed was blue and there was a bedside table, a bunch of jackets were on the floor and the cupboard was open with another two jackets and dresses hanging in it…Oh god I didn't have sex with a random did I? I gazed at my appearance I was wearing my dress from last night with a huge jacket around me which I instantly decided to zip up.

"I am just going to check…" I heard a voice yell outside the bedroom door, as I panicked and pulled my knees up to my chest not sure what the hell I was about to expect .The door opened and a face I knew but wanted to forget stared straight at me.

I didn't realize how shocked I was until I heard a screaming... wait I was screaming. He looked at me panicked shaking his head motioning for me to stop…but right now all my brain was thinking was escape and that meant screaming for help. He realized I wasn't going to stop after a couple of seconds and rushed over throwing his hand across my mouth.

"Shh…stop…stop I am not going to hurt you!" He yelled trying to calm me, I elbowed him in the stomach but he didn't let me go and held tightly onto me as I tried to scream again. He pulled me out of the bed suddenly and I took my chances biting down on his hand…

"Des" Joe screamed I felt my stomach churn and my knees stumbled backwards when suddenly arms wrapped around me, and pulled me up as I gazed to see Nick looking at me scared and confused looking back at his brother…What the hell was going on? How did they even find me? What did I do last night!

"I am going to be sick…" I whispered and he looked so relieved, I was to confused and felt like crap to ask what the hell was going on as he pulled me out the door and brought me into a bathroom and instantly I threw up into the toilet…

"Okay calm down…we promise were not going to hurt you" Nick said rubbing my back, it was like a wave of weakness had suddenly hit me and I could barely move at all I just felt so exhausted…I knew there was no point fighting them…I would never win.

"You watch her like a hawk Nick…she's done a good job on Joe…" Kevin stated with a laugh and I bit my lip my whole body shaking what the hell had happened? I mean I was going to the football, how could they have found me? I must have got drunk! That was the plan, obviously the plan took a huge turn in the wrong direction.

"It's fine Kev…she's not going anywhere soon" I heard him whisper and then it hit me this was a death sentence…for them…for me. We were all going to die now, everything I was trying to protect was gone now. I felt myself start crying, I'd tried so hard but I knew it was over… what had I got myself into?

"What the hell happened in here?" A female voice screamed, Nick sighed and slammed the door shut locking it and returning back to me looking carefully around…

"Nick let us in…" The voice yelled as I threw up again and he placed his hand on my back and rubbed it again pushing something cold against my head as I closed my eyes…

"No Demi just go…go fix Joe up, is he okay?" Nick yelled, Demi as in my cousin I started crying again…could this get any worse? He sighed rubbing my back waiting for a response which never came…

"You gave us a big fright last night…You don't remember do you?" He whispered, I didn't even remember the football game let alone how the hell I ended up with them. I felt so tired and just confused beyond anything I'd felt before…

"Come here…you'll be fine promise…Des don't be scared, I am practically your family" He whispered and brought me towards him and I shook my head holding back tears, no I couldn't get close to them…I promised not to.

"Des you have to trust me okay, I would never ever hurt you and you know it... You're my best friend still like when we were kids. I would never let anything happen to you" He whispered as I felt myself just give up, he did care I knew that but I was scared I didn't want them to turn me into something I didn't want to be…or be killed in the process.

"Take these…" He said and forced two tablets into my mouth and handed me a glass of water as I drunk a bit and swallowed them. He pulled me up a little and carefully put his hand under my chine forcing me to look into his gorgeous eyes…an instant weak smile came to his face as I just stared at him memorizing every aspect of his features…

"I missed you so much…you have no idea" He whispered pulling me into a hug, he sounded like he was about to cry as I let in and cuddled up to him. He made me feel so calm, his warmth just consumed all the panic and fear inside me, letting myself feel like everything was going to be okay. It seemed like I was something precious to him...that he never wanted to loose or harm me in anyway.

"We need to get you back to bed Des…no more biting people okay although it was really funny seeing Joe get bitten by a girl…" Nick stated with a laugh as he put his arm underneath my legs and slowly pulled me off the ground.

I cuddled into his chest as he opened the door and I heard a gasp, as a hand went onto my face and I moved my head away not wanting to be touched. Nick gave a sigh and I could feel people just staring at me…

"I don't think she remembers what happened last night from that reaction, I mean she bit me" Joe stated annoyed as I heard someone start giggling and then instantly stopped.

"Oh you think Joe really, she downed like 6 drinks and she doesn't remember you really think she would have" Kevin stated sarcastically as I felt the tiredness becoming my main battle.

"Well she's a whore, seriously you should have just left her to get hit by a car …then she would have been actually dead, problem solved" A female voice said it sounded snotty and uptight which only meant one thing…Selena.

"Selena you are such a bitch, if you don't care get the hell away from her" I heard what I assumed was Demi, there was silence for a moment then I heard an angry sigh and footsteps before a door slammed shut.

"Get her back to bed…hopefully she doesn't…go well mental this time" Demi whispered starting to giggle again as I heard Joe let out a huge huff and she instantly stopped.

"When does everyone arrive, we got all our stuff from Talia's?" Nick whispered the tone in his voice was grim, I felt him start walking and he placed me down on something soft obviously I was back in the bedroom as he pulling the sheets over me…

"Two hours…if she can't cope with us how the hell is she going to react with seeing her aunt and uncle let alone her grandmother" Nick whispered and inwardly I let out a groan I never wanted to see them again, never, ever in my entire life…

"Badly I would say…" Joe stated as instantly I heard Demi and Nick start laughing and then tried to pull themselves together.

"She bit me…why do you all think this is funny, yes I got beaten by a girl but she went all evil on me" Joe whispered out annoyed, as the cold towel came off my head and it was slowly moved over the rest of face. I moved away from Nick and cuddling into the pillows hoping this was all a horrible nightmare even though I knew it wasn't.

"I know she's 17, but she's a kid…I mean she's only just 17. What she remembers will never change and I honestly think that this is never going to work if she's scared of us she will never face her major fear…" Kevin whispered as I felt a hand rub my shoulder…

"I don't want her to be scared of us…of me…I just want her back, not to be queen I just want my best friend back and last night talking to her, I just felt like I had her back again I don't want to loose her ever again" Demi whispered as their was movement in the room, and I fel the bed rise as Nick got off and the door slammed. I opened my eyes confused...what now?

I gave a sigh maybe they did care, I mean ten years was a long time and god had I missed them. But I didn't want to be queen and as long as they represented that fear I would not be able to be with them even if I wanted to be.

Nick POV

I was on Destiny watch at the moment; I sat thinking about Joe's hand I couldn't believe she'd bitten him…I thought it as hilarious so did everyone but Joe. She was terrified of us though…it's like she thought we were the ones who were going to try and kill her…I gazed over at Des' chest rising and falling; she seemed pretty peaceful at the moment if only she was like that when she was awake. A sudden knock on the door drew my attention away as it opened and I gazed to see dad who gave me a huge grin and gazed in amazed…

"She looks like her mom wow…" He whispered giving me a grin and walking in as I stood up and moved over to the bed, he looked at her in happiness but I could also see slyness and his mind planning for the future…

"She'll be perfect as Queen," He said moving his hand to wake her and I instantly grabbed it and he looked at me confused as the door opened again and mom with Kevin walked in…

"She's scared dad…of us…she doesn't want to be queen, please don't do this to her." I whispered as I looked at mom who moved over to her in curiosity and gazed down as dad just ignored me…

"Wake her up, we need to get this sorted" Magritte yelled walking in the room with Henry and Alexandra, she looked amazed as well and moved over next to me and gazing down on her sleeping granddaughter…

"She's sick…she needs to sleep" Joe whispered as Alexandra moved her hand down and slowly touched her face, as she made no movement at all. There was a moment of silence as Alexandra tried to remember the granddaughter she'd lost so long ago until Magritte broke the silence…

"Well she got drunk, wake her up…NOW" She screamed as Destiny's eyes flew open and literally everyone froze as she turned and looked absolutely horrified seeing everyone staring at her and hit the wooden back of the bed…

"Destiny we just want to talk" Dad said very carefully and she looked down at the bed trying to hide herself and I could see from here she was holding her breath trying to not make a simple sound…

"Great she's a mute…this is all we need" Magritte yelled as she moved towards Destiny and went to grab her as Des caught site of her and flew away to the other side of the bed her whole body shaking in fear.

"Come on Destiny, we're your family what the hell is wrong with you, aren't you happy you haven't seen us since you were 7" Magritte yelled at her, I just was trying to read what she was thinking she looked just so panicked like she wanted to escape…

"For god's sake…she is useless come here" Magritte yelled and grabbed her arm pulling her out of the bed as she closed her eyes like she was waiting for Magritte to hit or attack her.

"You need to explain girl ten years of nothing, you're very selfish you know how badly I want the throne and no one would give it to me because they think it should be yours…yet you don't want it" She yelled as we all stared at Magritte as Destiny kept her eyes closeed her face contorted in panic…

"Just like your stupid father…don't think of anyone but yourself do you" She yelled that's when I knew I had to stop this, I moved in between them looking at everyone pissed breaking Magritte's grip on her…

"What the hell is wrong with you? She's a kid…my god she doesn't want to be Queen okay…did any of you actually want to find her just because you missed her or did you just want to find her to use Destiny?" I yelled at them Joe walked over and stood with me nodding as did Kevin and then Demi while Alexandra just stood there in a daze like all her birthdays had come at once…

"Nicholas that is no way to speak, we have brought you up better then this" Dad yelled at me as I shook my head I really didn't give a shit anymore this was wrong and they needed to realize that…

"Your not using her…I won't let you, she's my best friend…she's Demi's best friend and I will not let any of you threaten her life again." I yelled as Alexandra stepped over looking at me and gazed behind the wall we had built hiding Des behind us…

"I want my Destiny back that's all…I want my granddaughter back…" She whispered looking at me as I stared at her, I already knew she didn't care if Destiny was Queen or not…she'd made that clear from the beginning.

"I think all of you should leave…you've made this worse then it already was. We'll talk to her, okay just leave all of you Alexandra please you too…she's scared, she doesn't understand what's going on...she does not remember last night or how we found her" Kevin stated and Alexandra nodded and looked at Magritte…

"That is no way to treat anyone Magritte…" Alexandra stated and walked out as mom nodded and walked out as well, dad just shot us a look and led with Magritte and Henry.

"You to Sel…you've hardly been a help" Demi stated as she rolled her eyes and walked out slamming the door, silence consumed the room as we all turned back to her…

"Des we are so sorry…we didn't know that was going to happen at all" Joe said as she just stared at the ground, she had a really blank expression on her face.

"Lets get you back to bed" Kevin stated as he pulled her back onto the bed and she pulled the duvet over her head instantly. We all exchanged looks as we just stood there unsure of what to say to make this any better…

"Let me go home…I don't belong here anymore" She whispered from underneath the doona, everyone just stared at the outline…finally she had said something and I couldn't agree more she didn't belong in the royal part of the family but she belonged with a family but by the looks of it she couldn't have one without the other.
