Danni is a teen girl who has been in a group home since she was 10 years old after her parents were murdered and she was left for dead. For the past 6 years she has been doing her own research to find the person responsible for all of this. She finally located them in the state her parents grew up in. Now Danni is in a new group home and going to a new school. She finds herself in a tough spot she has to fight her way through the 3 kings of her new school to get to the one person who holds the truth to everything, but what she doesn't expect is to fall for all three of them.

Chapter 1 Danni

"So, Danni, I heard you became an orphan because your father couldn't handle his gambling habit," Sissy, one of the girls at the group home, teases me. This happens at least once a month and I always end up retaliating by hitting her. You would think she would learn her lesson by now, but people like Sissy Buckwet never seem to learn. They enjoy getting into fights. So, I walked up to her and gave her exactly what she wanted - a punch to the nose. She threw herself onto the floor, screaming about her broken nose, just as Sister Brenda entered the kitchen.

"What on earth is going on here?" Sister Brenda demanded, but to my surprise, nobody snitched on me. "Alright, children, go to your classes. Danni, stay behind. I need to talk to you."

"Yes, Sister," I replied. Sister Brenda waited until all the other kids had left the room before informing me that my request to be moved to Lee, Massachusetts had been granted. There is another group home there, and the woman in charge will send someone to pick me up later today. But for now, I should go to my classes.

"Sister, is the new home similar to this one?" I asked. Don't get me wrong, I like Sister Brenda, but the whole nun thing is not really my scene. My family was not Catholic; we were Southern Baptists. My parents grew up in Lee, Massachusetts, which is why I want to go there. I want to find out more about them. My parents were killed seven years ago, and ever since I was brought to the group home, I've been doing my own investigation to find out anything I can.

So far, all I've discovered is that my parents lived in Lee, Massachusetts their whole lives. They went to school together, dated throughout high school and college, and then had me while still living in Massachusetts. But soon after my birth, my father became a gambler and lost a lot of money. He owed a significant amount to a bookie, so he packed me and my mom up and moved us to Denver, Colorado. Years later, the bookie found us. And then killed my parents. That's why I really want to uncover the truth about what happened to them. From what I remember, they were both loving parents. I was 13 when they died, so I may have suppressed some memories. I shake myself out of my thoughts and enter my first classroom of the day.

Sister Mary is reading from the Bible today. I'm not particularly interested in school today, so after the first class is over, I sneak off to my room and start packing my things. I don't have much to pack, so I sit on my bed and read until I know school is over. Then I quietly go downstairs and begin doing my chores for the last time. Today, I have kitchen duties, so I will cook for the girls and then clean up the kitchen afterwards. I get started on my tasks.

On my last day here, I decided to cook cheeseburgers and fries to avoid a lot of cleaning up. Just as I was about to start cooking, Sister Mary entered the kitchen with a woman I didn't recognize. She introduced her as Geneva Denver, my new group home mother. Geneva greeted me and we exchanged pleasantries. Sister Mary offered to finish my chores so I could pack my bags and leave, but Geneva interrupted and suggested that I finish my chore and we could take a burger for the road if there was enough. Sister Mary agreed and took Geneva elsewhere in the house while I finished my chores.

My best friend, Ava, asked me if it was true that I was leaving to go to a state I knew nothing about. I had forgotten to tell her about my plans, and I didn't want to see the disappointment in her eyes. I apologized and explained my reasons for leaving. Ava understood, but expressed her hope that I would fight for her to come with me. However, she knew it was unlikely. I was fortunate that the sisters understood my situation and allowed me to leave. I'm almost 18, so they had little choice. I hope this move will help me or I'll have to figure things out on my own.

After finishing all my tasks for the day, I went up to my room and grabbed my two bags of clothing. I headed back downstairs to leave with Geneva Denver. As I reached the first door, all the girls lined up to give me a goodbye hug. It was a sweet gesture. Once we got into Geneva's car, I turned around in the backseat and saw Ava standing on the street with tears streaming down her face. I mouthed the words "This isn't goodbye. It's just an extended "see you later" through the back window. Ava smiled and waved as I drove away. I turned back around with tears in my eyes, realizing how difficult it was to say goodbye to her.

"Are you okay, dear?" Geneva asks me. I nod and we continue the rest of the trip in silence. Eventually, we stopped at a motel and get a room for the night. "Tomorrow morning, we'll have breakfast and then continue on to Lee," Geneva tells me. I take a shower and get into bed while Geneva takes her turn.

The next day, it takes us a couple more hours to reach the group home. It's a nice two-story house with a fenced front yard and a porch that wraps around. There are girls sitting on the porch swings and rocking chairs, waiting for us, I assume.

We get out of the car and Mrs. Geneva leads us up the stairs to the porch. "Ladies, this is Ms. Danni Honeycutt. Let's give her a warm welcome," Mrs. Geneva announces. The girls greet me and a few come up to shake my hand. But, as always, there's one girl who has to be difficult.

"You better watch yourself around here. Just because it's a small town doesn't mean we're all nice and welcoming," she warns me before walking away.

"Don't mind Sally, she's always like that," a girl says as she approaches me. "Hey, by the way, I'm Daisy Mae."

"Hello Daisy Mae, it's nice to meet you," I replied. I have a feeling that we're going to be instant friends. I always have a sense about people. "So, Daisy Mae, what are the daily chores we have to do here?" I ask her.

"Well, you're in luck today. We've already finished the morning chores. But it's pretty much the same as if you were at home with your family. We have to clean our rooms every day, take turns with other house and outdoor chores, and one person is assigned cooking duty for breakfast, weekend lunches, and dinner. Geneva decides who's the best at cooking. The girl who was doing it before aged out and left on her own," Daisy Mae explains. That sneaky woman, she must have been sizing me up when she let me cook at the other house. Luckily, I cooked a lot at my previous home. The sisters wanted us to learn how to cook so we could be independent when we grew up. They also taught us how to manage our own bills, with one student responsible for all the bills each month.

Mrs. Geneva informed me today that I can just observe, but tomorrow I will be expected to help. She doesn't know me well enough to know that I don't just sit back and let others work. So when it's time for lunch chores, I immediately jump in and start working.

"That won't earn you any brownie points with anyone around here," sneers Sally. "Well, damn, I was hoping for a cookie when I was done kissing ass," I sass back Daisy Mae and the other girls find it funny, but Sally doesn't.

"Watch your back, bitch," she whispers, then shoulder checks me as she walks off to another room.

"This house is huge and beautiful. How did someone like Geneva get the funding to house girls like us?" I ask Daisy Mae.

"Oh, she didn't get any funding for this place. It was her father's, and when he passed away, she inherited it and moved us all here. But she also doesn't rely on government money; she has a weekday job as a lawyer."

Hmm, that could come in handy with my plans. We settle in for the night, and I take out my notepad to study it. I specifically chose this area because of the school. I believe there are three brothers who can help me uncover the truth about my parents. I need to be cautious and gather more information before approaching them.

Damn water, girl.! Shouldn’t you just stick to the salad you have in your hands? You keep eating unhealthy foods like pizza. You’re going to get too big to run and fetch me my water.” “Thanks for your concern, Arron, but it’s unwanted and needed because all I’m eating today is my salad.” “You do not have to explain anything to that douche bag,” Sydney hisses at me. “I was being sarcastic, Syd.” Sydney rolls her eyes at Arron, then leads us over to our table. Luckily, I made it to my table without a hitch. Normally, I end up with most of my food on me before I get to my table. “Are you okay Riv? “Sydney asks me once we get sat down. “Yes, I’m used to it by now.” “Wow, River Rock just walked in.” My skin instantly heats at that name. Rock (James Martinez) is not only the hottest guy at school. He is the quarterback and captain, and my biggest hater at Scotts high. To make matters worse, his mom is dating my dad. “Hey water girl, go get me some food.” Rock says, coming over and sitting down at our table like he owns it. “Fuck off Rock.” Sydney says, then gets up and positions herself in between us. I guess she thinks that’s going to stop him from harassing me. I go to get up and get him food so he will leave me alone, but my friend is not having that. “Sit your ass down.” Sydney growls. “Just let me do this Syd so I might eat in peace today.” “You’re going to eat in peace, anyway. I will make sure of it,” Sydney says between clenched teeth. She really doesn’t know what she starts when she does this. Surprising, Rock gets up and walks over to get his own food, then goes and sits with his girlfriend and the other football players. I get to eat my food in peace for the rest of the lunch hour. Once the bell rings, Sydney and I head to our next class. We make it through our last couple classes and then it’s time to go out on the football field to make sure the team has plenty of water. I wonder if I could get away with putting some laxative tablets in their waters see how good they practice having to run to the bathroom every 5 minutes. “Yo water girl, get your ass over here with the damn waters,” Damion, the linebacker, yells at me. Making me jump out of my daydream. You know I’m not the only water girl out here, but I’m the only one that gets picked on. I really don’t understand what I have done to make them target me. Unlike Tiffany, who's dry humping Rock's leg while giving him water, I'm quiet and keep to myself. Walking towards the table, I put some more water glasses down on it. Then I walk over to the guys that are standing around waiting to get on the field to see if they want any water. “It’s about damn time, water girl.” Most of the guys say, but there are some. The freshmen thanked me. But that will soon change once they hear what the other guys call me and the way they treat me, then they will start doing the same. Once that set of guy’s head on the field, the ones that were on the field head off it, so I do the same thing for them. I walk up to them and pour water into the mouths of the ones that want water and get shoved to the side by the ones that don’t want water. God, I really don’t know why I am doing this… I really hate football. But it's either this or having to hear my dad complain about me not doing anything. By the end of practice I have everything packed up, and ready to head to the locker room when Rock and his friend Damion walk up behind me, pushing me so hard I fall and the bottles in my hands go flying around the field. “Oh, damn water girl, I didn’t see you standing there.” Rock says, then bends down to help me up to my feet, but I slap his hand away. “Now, now, River, is that anyway to treat your sum to be stepbrother?” Rock chuckles. God, I hope not. “My dad will never marry your mother. He loved my mother too much.” I spit at him and he sees red. Rock lifts me up off the ground by my shirt, hauling me into his body. “You listen to me, you little bitch.” “James Martinez, put River down right now.” Coach barks at him and Rock chunks me to the ground and I land on my butt hard. Once everyone heads to the locker room, I get up and start gathering the bottles that went flying a minute ago back up and put them back in the bags. Coach must have stayed behind because he helped me with the bottles. “You know, Ms. Darby, you really shouldn’t let them boys treat you that way.” I know I shouldn’t, but I really don’t have any choice. “Thanks coach I say.” Once he helps me up and gives me the bags to carry to the locker room. “River, I’ve known your dad for a long time, and I don’t think he would be too happy to know how bad things are for you at school.” “No offense, coach, but you must not know my dad as well as you think you do, because my father couldn’t care less.” I walk on into the locker room without another word.

I started out on the streets when I was 16 years old — when my parents walked in my room one night and found me in bed with one of my dad's business partners. My parents didn't care that a man came into my room and touched me inappropriately during their party. They were more concerned about their reputation. "A well-respected business executive" like my father couldn't have a whoring daughter like me, bringing his name to shame, so I had to go. And it didn't matter that I had nowhere to go. So, now at 22, I find myself a prostitute with a bad-tempered pimp, and a drug problem. I stay high on anything I can get my hands on just, so I don't have to feel the nasty shit the Johns are doing to me or be sound of mind when I'm blowing them off. I'm in my tiny ass apartment right now getting ready to head out to my corner for the night and get me a John or two.... try to make me some money for the night. I have rent due in a day are two, so as I'm getting ready, I snort me I line of coke and fuck that shit good. I look at myself in the mirror one last time... make sure I don't have any white shit on my nose, are anywhere else, then I head out to the corner. "Hey Layla, any new business tonight?" I ask the lady and my best friend that stands on the same corner as me. "Hey Corky girl. No, it's been kind of quiet tonight, but the night is still young girly... and you're looking fire tonight, so I'm sure you will get a few hits." "I hope so, Layla. I have rent this week, and you know how Martin is about us being late for our rent." "Yes, well, Martin should take the cut we give him after every night as our rent money." Layla spits out. "Watch what you say, Layla. He has ears everywhere." I tell her and sway a little on my feet. "Corky damnit girl, you really need to lie off that shit," Layla shays at me. "Only if I could find another way not to feel I would, Layla." "Corky girl, why won't you get your GED? Carry your ass to college... and get the hell out of New York, away from this shit." Layla says for the 100th time. She tells me the same shit every night. She has since I was 18, and first started prostituting for Martin, our sleaze-bag pimp. I'm smart enough I could get my GED, and get into a community college, and make something of myself, but would Martin let me go? I'm one of his highest paid prostitutes. "Corky, look alive, baby girl. Here comes some action, Layla says," breaking me out of my daydream. "Oh, joy!" Here we go. "Hey there, handsome... what'll be tonight?" I say, leaning into the passenger window. It's a nice-looking older gentleman in his mid-40's not someone you would think you would see picking up a prostitute for an hour. "I would like to rent you for the hour." "Rent me?" This guy has done nothing like this in his life. Poor fucking sap. "Um, sweetheart, you don't rent us. You buy us for as long as you need us. We do whatever you want in that time frame and the price starts at $50 dollars and goes up from there, I tell him." "That's doable he tells me." Then he just sets there for a minute like he's not too sure what to do about the information I just gave him. "Okay sweetheart, if you want to do this, then I have to get into your car. Then we will go to a motel or somewhere and that's where the real fun will begin," I tell him. "Oh, yes, right, sure? Um, get in and then we can figure out where we will go for the night," he tells me, so I open the passenger door and climb in." Your first time I ask him?" "That obvious, huh?" "Yes," I smile at him, "but that's okay. So, what are you looking for tonight?" I ask him, then I kind of glance around his car and find a damn car seat in the back seat of his car. Really, man? "So, you and your wife just had a baby, huh?" "Oh, um, I'd rather not talk about that, if you don't mind."
