chapter 13 - the fall out
Annabelle's POV
I can't believe I didn't see this coming, how did I not see this coming, brothers, they're brothers, no wonder Bradley was okay leaving me that day at the clubhouse. cause I kept wondering, what power does Chad have to even control him like that, this explains it so much, so Chad parents adopted the Foster twins, so he's Chad Foster, wait the chancellors name is foster, how did I miss this, their father is the vice chancellor, that's how Allison got suspended, they really pulled one on me, but now I know it all, which means Bradley can't even get to me, I've just been overreacting, glad that's over, now to face the mystery boy, and how he knows so much about me.
"Eheem!" I cleared my throat signifying I'm still here, before they both turned to me, both looked pretty pissed, at least they have that in common.
"Can we go, or do you want to keep drooling at my brother here?" Chad teased, but I wasn't letting him go off that easily, i used my hands to hit him hard on the arm, before adding.
"Now you say something, how the hell did I not know you're related to the twins, why didn't you tell me?" I stated at him with bloodshot eyes.
"It never came up." he simply said, waving his hands by the side like he was innocent "can we go?" he added.
"Sure." I let out a long scoff, before walking out of door, for regular college students they really are extravagant, their parents live close by, but somehow Chad has his place and so do the twins, at least so I think, Could be that they lived together, because the house was a bit out sketch and well it was a secret so, guess he doesn't know about it, he suddenly snapped me out of my thinking.
"Hey, Princess we're here." he gestured as he opened the door, looking at him, I gave him the I got my eyes on you sign, before heading in for the dorms, I needed to change into something appropriate, and well go apologise to Jessica, but that was too late, immediately I walked in she was already seated leg crossed on my bed, looking pissed as hell, knowing the situation I immediately blurted out the appropriate words.
"I am so sorry Jess, I don't know but I'm just sorry." I gave a sad face, she looked at me before passing me over her phone, looking at it, I notice it was a news headline, apparently Maddie forwarded it to her, cause apparently she couldn't reach me, that's when I realised Chad had my phone on flight mood. That explains the zero missed calls, why would he do that, people must have been trying to reach me, staring at her screen I finally read the headline. "Daughter of King Rowland the former king of England goes wild at a party, is this threat or not for the royal family, Queen Elizabeth is yet to comment" seriously who even comes up with this things, they made it look like a bad thing, realising what this might cause I immediately face palmed my face, and Allison just had to say something.
"You seriously didn't think this was going to happen huh, Princess Annabelle, wonder what daddy's going to say?" she teased standing up from her bed walking up to me, I was pissed and this chick doesn't know what she was walking into.
"You better watch it Ally, I am warning you?" I reached for my phone and turning off the flight mood, as if my dad was waiting for me to take it off his call finally came in, kill me!
Me
Hey dad!
Dad
What were you thinking Annabelle, come home this instinct now!!
Me
But dad.
Dad
But nothing, you're coming back, we need to talk. Your mother is here too.
Line goes off
"So he hanged up," I turned to Jessica, I am in big trouble I've never heard my dad this mad ever, what am I going to do, I better get going then, just then a message comes in.
I'm sending the driver to come get you, better be ready then young lady. (angry face)
Dad♥
He must be really mad at me, knowing I might be there for a little while, I went straight to my closet not even minding Allison or Jessica, I grabbed a bag and put some stuffs I might need then decided to change into something comfortable, I wonder what this will be about.
******
I walked into the living room, and I must say everything looked different, I was only gone for two months, and everything was different, new chairs were put in, they changed the chandeliers and carpet, they all had a golden colour now theme made to the house, which complimented the living room, I totally love it, setting my bag on the chair, I sighted my Molly in the dining. I ran over to her before giving her a hug, I saw my dad, who simply ignored me before walking to the living room, a sign he meant to follow him, I knew I was in trouble alright. Molly followed and my mom came in minutes after from the upstairs room, is this a family meeting, cause I'm confused where's Ashley then?
I went to the middle and stood there, afraid to even sit, before my mom gestured a seat next to her, which I gladly accepted, my dad then immediately reached for the remote and turned on the TV, and last night video started playing, I am so screwed. We watched it till the end, before it finally ended and my dad turned to me, if only looks Could kill, I'd be dead now, why can't the ground just open up and swallow me right now, I face palmed my face, but this time,I didn't take my hands off my face.
"What were you thinking, I get you're in college but this isn't how things are done." he finally spoke, but I just froze, I didn't even know what to say at this point.
"ANSWER ME, WHEN I'M TALKING TO YOU?" he hit the table hard.
"Rowland calm down, she's just a kid doing teenagers things." my mom backed me up, I couldn't even let a single word out, cause I knew whatever was coming out was not good.
"Doesn't mean she should go around flaunting her self in the mist of boys for godsake, dancing like a stripper," he added ''THIS ISN'T THE DAUGHTER I FUCKING RAISED." he said standing up.
"Calm down love, let's figure it out at least, sit down let's talk this out." Molly tried calming him down.
"Have you even seen the damn news? my name is everywhere, I could lose so much, a lot is at stake here, Elizabeth called this morning?" he finally declared, so that was it, all this anger because his names will be in the paper and of course, the fucking royal family, that's it I am dropping the bomb.
"so what dad, you're not even the king anymore, why does it fucking matter, can't I just live a normal life and not be judged by EVERYTHING I DO." I said not even realizing I shouted at the last part, my dad was just being paranoid, ever since we moved here I thought the whole royal stuff was going to end, but no people still refer to him as the King, I lived with it in high school, but right now I can't do that, I can't fucking be the stupid princess everyone wants me to be, that's me alright Annabelle; the princess, that's what everyone sees me as, my dad isn't the fucking king anymore deal with it.
"I swear to you, this girl doesn't even get it." he raised his fist in the air before letting out some air to calm himself down he added "can you at least be on your best behaviour, if you want to be wild and do crazy college stuffs? I get it just be careful, we are not a normal family and I'm sure by now you figure it out." he played the video again shaking his head before turning to me smiling, I just love my dad he Just gets me, it's like he reads my mind all the time.
"I can try." i smiled before running to hug him "thanks for understanding dad." I gave him a peck I am glad that is over, cause that pressure was real on. I stood up looking around I added ''did you guys redecorate?"
"Maybe." Molly teased, I decided to go make myself at home, I actually needed the break, maybe I can even finish up on my assignment, i went up to my room, and went straight to the shower, after cooling off for a minute, I was our drying my hair and just relaxing, I haven't felt this peaceful in forever, no boys, no drama, no annoying roommates just me alone in my room.
Switching on my system I decided to work on my assignment, I decided on spending two days at home, and then by Thursday I'll be back at school, I'll just miss a day it won't hurt I guess, plus I will be back fully ready and concentrated I thought to myself. I worked on the assignment for about an hour, before I decided I needed to sleep, I had already done half of the work already, so I'll definitely finish up tomorrow, with that said and done, I decided to sleep and moments later I was deep asleep.
A/N: this was a bit short, but I promise the next will be long and a lot will happen, see you there.
