Destiny's Pov
Dear Diary,
Let's start off by telling you about my life. My name is Destiny Kyler Orton and I'm 16. I have I am one of 8 children. Yeah there are 8of us. I'm the oldest and then my twin brother Deacon. We have a sister that is 3 years younger than us her name is Brooklyn it's actually a funny story about her when my mom was pregnant we all thought she was going to be a boy. Brooklyn and I tolerate each other we aren't best friends but we share a common hate for our Deacon. After Brooklyn we have a younger brother Zachary he is a computer nerd which is fine with me because I make him do my homework sometimes. Then we have the triplets Adriana,Keith and Blade. Blade was named after Deacon's favorite movie Blade Trinity they argued over it for weeks at first he wanted Hannibal and mom was like no way so the he suggested Uncle Paul's character Jarko and again she was like no but then they agreed on Blade which was a good thing because I was tired of listening to them argue. and My mother let Deacon, myself and our father pick out the names. The triplets have an equally funny story, my father convinced my mother that our family would be perfect if there was just one more boy. Dad wants all his boys to follow in his footsteps. They were having trouble so they went to a fertility doctor and well about nine months later not one baby but three were born. Let's just say mom was not to happy with dad which is understandable. Finally little David was born about a year ago. Mom named him after our Uncle Dave who died before we were born. We don't know much about him except that he brought our parents together after a really long time. And so there you have it my really large and complicated family. Well good night
Next morning
"Destiny sweetie can we talk for a minute?" my mother asked as she sat down on my bed. Sixteen years had done nothing to her she still looked the same as she did back then.
"Sure what is it mom?" I asked sitting up.
"You know how you got your name right?" she asked
"Yeah dad named me" I replied
"Then why do you let your friends call you Ky?" she asked
"Because Destiny sounds like a stripper's name" I answered. She sighed and put her head in her hands. I heard her say I'm too old for this.
"Baby your father named you Destiny for a reason" she said "before he won the title for the first time he went around saying it was his destiny to win the title and become the youngest heavyweight champion which he did but then when you were born he said that nothing else was important anymore and that you and your brother were his destiny and so he named you that and I know you didn't mean to hurt him but I see the way he cringes when someone calls you Ky" she said
I had never thought about that I just thought my dad was drunk and picked the first name that popped into his head.
"He never said anything" I said
"You know him he likes to pretend that things don't bother him" she replied.
"Where is dad?" I asked
"He took the kids to the park" she answered.
I walked around the house I could hear Deacon lifting weights downstairs in the gym so I decided to talk to him. Deacon and I were complete opposites with the exception of our love for wrestling. We both wanted to be in the business but my dad wouldn't even think about letting his little princess wrestle.
"Hey" I said sitting down on the machine next to the one he was using.
"What do you want?" he asked. His reddish-brown hair was sticking to his forehead due to the sweat he was acquiring. Deacon looked a lot like our mother he had the same hair color and the same green eyes.
"I just wanted to talk to you" I replied
"So talk" he said
"De, I want to be a wrestler" I said
He stopped what he was doing and sat upright.
"Is this some kind of joke?" he asked
"No" I replied.
"What the hell would you want to wrestle?" he asked
"Because it's my family history too" I said "you get to follow in dad's footsteps why can't I this is something I really want"
"So why are you telling me?" he asked
"Because you are my brother maybe could could help or teach me" I said
"How about no" he said
"Please Deacon you are my brother and not just that you are my twin, I am asking for your help, I know we don't get along but please there is no need to be a dick to me all the time especially because I am practically begging you to help me" I pleaded
"I'll help you on one condition" he said
"what is it?" I asked
"I need you help to impress this girl" he said
I had to do my best not to laugh at him, he needed my help to get a girl. But it was true Deacon was more like our mother he was very careful around the opposite sex. Our mother likes to say he is going to make a great husband to someone someday.
"Ok it's a deal" I said.
So it began and what happens next I don't know but I'd like to think it is good. All I really want is to have a career I love and a love that could survive anything like the one my parents have. Maybe just maybe it will happen only time will tell.
The End
