OMG, I started work experience today, and I can no longer see it as a week off school, because I'm so nervous about it still, it's fun though, and it inspired me, so I guess you're lucky, and the next time I'm online, will be after my second day, I need to control myself, I think I'm going to scream, work experience makes me think about the future, how HSM2 is that, it's so weird, and my placement is next door to my school, so I can see the others in lessons, so funny.
Gabriella's POV
I walked up the driveway and up to the house my dad had once lived in.
I started whacking the door with my fist so furiously, it began to hurt, but right now, I didn't care.
Nobody at home knew I was here, I hadn't told my friends either, they would have only tried to stop me, and I couldn't let anyone stop me.
"What the hell?" A man asked as he opened the door, "Who the hell are you?"
"I'm guessing you're Kyle," I snapped.
"How did you know my name?" He quizzed.
"Can I speak to Alyssa?" I demanded more than questioned.
"Lyss, it's for you," Kyle spoke through the house as he backed up from the door a fraction.
I watched as Alyssa appeared from the doorway that I knew led to the kitchen, she gasped when she saw me, walking closer, clearly sensing my anger.
"Gabriella, sweetie, nice to see you," She smiled nervously as I glared at her, "This is Kyle, he's my boyfriend, I'm sure Carly told you all about him, Kyle, this is Carly's father's other daughter, Gabi."
"The one who screwed up you're marriage?" Kyle quizzed from his spot, staring at me.
"No, she screwed up her own marriage," I answered for her, "She's also screwing up her relationship with Evan and Carly."
"Are they why you're here?" Alyssa asked, annoying me further.
"No, I just felt like dropping by to see how you're doing," I replied sarcastically, I couldn't believe how idiotic she was being, "Of course they are why I'm here, more specifically, Carly is why I'm here, you insulted her."
"Why would I insult my own kid?" Alyssa quizzed, trying to look confused.
"You're a bad actress Alyssa," I pointed out, "She told me what you said to her, personally I think it's sick, I was going to keep quiet about it though, but dad heard her telling me, and he told my mom, my whole family hate you right now, you have no idea how mad Grampy was, he hated you before but now it's worse, so do us all a favour Alyssa, stay away from us, all of us, Evan and Carly included."
"You want me to stay away from my own kids?" She smirked.
"I don't think Carly needs to be hanging around someone that thinks she's thick, do you?" I answered, and then walked back down the path, leaving my rhetorical question hanging in the air.
Alistair's POV (awesomely new, I decided to give him one)
"Hey, T," I greeted as I walked into the lounge of my grandparents house.
"Where Gabi?" She asked me, staring over my shoulder.
"No idea," I replied truthfully.
"WHERE GABI?" She screamed, unimpressed by my answer.
"No idea," I repeated, remaining calm, we were used to this behaviour from Tia now.
"I WANT GABI," She yelled.
I heard footsteps on the stairs and watched as Gabriella's mother ran into the room.
"She's not home yet Tia, she'll be back soon, ok?" Maria spoke calmly, what was it with women and always managing to stay in control.
Tia stared at her for a few seconds, I was worried that she was going to kick off, but my sister nodded and went back to watching the TV.
"How did you do that?" I whispered to Maria.
"It helps when you've raised two daughters yourself, Gabi and Bel made me an expert in child control," She smiled.
"Did you tell Gabi why Tia's so difficult?" I quizzed.
"No, if she asks I will, but she hasn't, I think that's because she doesn't find Tia difficult," The woman answered.
"I told her that Tia couldn't cope with mom and dad's fights, but really it was Tia causing the fights, and mom and dad couldn't deal with her, I know it's not her fault though, but I guess it's better that she's here," I explained.
"You really think lying to Gabi will help?" Maria asked.
"Not really, she wouldn't care anyway, would she?" I questioned in reply.
"No, she wouldn't care, Tia's family," Maria pointed out what I already knew.
"My name's Tia!" My sister exclaimed excitedly, she obviously had no idea we'd been talking about her.
"Yes, sweetie," Maria smiled, "That is your name isn't it?"
My sister nodded enthusiastically as I just wondered how Maria could pretend there was nothing wrong; I guess it all came with being a parent.
Gabriella's POVI walked through the front door of my grandparents house later than I usually would after school, I knew mom would kill me for being late without calling, but I couldn't just let what Alyssa said slide.
"Where've you been?" Dad asked as he saw me.
"Out," I sighed, not caring to elaborate.
"I hear it's lovely there this time of year," he joked, but I could tell he was curious.
I gave a small smile, nodded and walked up the stairs.
"Gabriella," He called behind me.
I turned to him, knowing that if I didn't, I'd have double to deal with.
He studied my face for a while, I thought I wasn't giving anything away, but, obviously, I was.
"Gabi, tell me you didn't," He said after a while, I continued staring at him blankly, thinking just one thing:
Did he know?
Minor cliffy.
I know that was amazingly short, i seem to have been specialising in short chapters recently, being drowned with homework, coursework and work experience diaries doesn't help. One nickelodeon advert has it right, DESTROY ALL HOMEWORK!
