"Remember to be kind," Liviana lectured her parents, sending the two a look over her shoulder as they made their way to the Castelli's front door.

"And show some respect, will you?" Blaze adds, glaring behind at the two as he stops before the door, asking if they understood the rules they had laid out on the way over, before daring to ring the bell. It was only once Alonzo nodded and assured his son-in-law that they listened and understood the boundaries that Blaze finally relented and rung the bell.

It took no more than a second for the door to be pulled open, and for Elara to greet the family with a warm smile.

"Kids!" She greets her son with a hug, pulling him down to kiss his cheek- an action he returns as he places a swift kiss on his mother's cheek before surpassing her, moving inside to greet his father. Elara turns her attention to her Liviana, quick to wrap her daughter-in-law up in a hug. "Hi, dear!"

"Hi," Liviana smiles, immediately feeling better in the woman's warm embr

  • Re-Arranged   Chapter One Hundred and Thirty

    Liviana didn't have the slightest clue as to what was going on. A reoccurring theme around here, lately. The raven having fallen behind in her usual daily due diligence after succumbing to her exhaustion over the past few weeks, taking rather kindly to a kind of "better to leave well enough alone" mentality as of late, and now, too much was slipping through the cracks because of it, because of her.What was even worse was not knowing what had happened to Blaze because of it. She had no idea what had gotten into her husband, what or who had hurt him, but clearly, they had. And now she needed to help him, wanted to heal him, make him feel alright.But he just wouldn't let her."Blaze, please," Liviana begs, twisting the doorknob in a futile attempt at opening the locked door. If anything, it wasn't anything more than an action to prove her desperate - not that he cared, but she wanted him to know that she was here and she was trying. It might not of been much in the grand scheme of thi

  • Re-Arranged   Chapter One Hundred and Twenty Nine

    Liviana was left stunned, eyes locked on the empty doorway that her husband disappears through with Amara in tow, who he hauls out by her arm."C'mon. Let's go, Amara," Blaze heaves a deep sigh as he pulls his squirming sister along. "Gotta get you out of here."It's the last Liviana hears from him, barely catching the words when catching his eye just before he disappears through the doorway, hauling Amara out with a sorry look on his face. It was clear he regretted letting her in at all, and Livi could see why. Amara had done nothing but waste their time - time that they didn't have in the first place. Not now, not today. And certainly not for her. She could see the sentiment was shared. They were both sorry, both for very different reasons, sure, but sorry, nonetheless. And it was safe to say they would be speaking about this the second he came back.Yes, Amara hadn't said a useful word - not in Livi's definition of the word - and that didn't leave them with much context, much to

  • Re-Arranged   Chapter One Hundred and Twenty Eight

    The clock ticked loudly in the corner like the nerves that lit up melodically in her brain, the ones that kept her knee bouncing and her hands twisting cruelly against one another, wringing out her skin like that was the only way she could drain the feeling from herself. She hated to say that this time wasn't anymore successful than her last, and the rough friction left her with nothing more than familiar red marks to lace her soft skin. She winces at the uncomfortable feeling that begins to form in her wrist, huffing as she reminds herself that this was a habit she had to drop, as it never did anything more than hurt her and frustrate her further. Still, she couldn't help the way her fingers would latch her wrist at the first sign of any trouble, not leaving until God - or whatever misfortune they were dealing with during that day - willed her to let go and put her hands to some good use - or at least, some sort of use. She realized that it was hardly ever good, but at least it kept

    It was a never ending drag of silence, filling the room like smoke would fill rotting lungs. They tried to swallow it down, coughed and choked and tried to hold it back - all those feelings, all those unspoken words.But eventually, Liviana couldn't help but to crack. Before she knew it, everything came pouring out. And she couldn't do a damn thing to stop it. "Okay, that-" she cuts herself off with a sigh, shaking her head as if ridding herself of her nerves. She had to do this. She couldn't stand the silence anymore. "That's enough. We're supposed to be here to talk!" The woman reminds, her sharp, accusing eyes darting between the set of siblings, who only avoid her eyes. "So talk!"The demand does little to urge the two, who only share a look and shrug, just as speechless as ever."Oh, you have got to be kidding me," Liviana murmurs, two fingers messaging at her temple. These two were going to be the death of her. "Nothing?" She eyes her husband, who simply stares at her, dumbfou

  • Re-Arranged   Chapter One Hundred and Twenty Six

    Blaze and Amara didn't know what to do with themselves.They sat quietly, keeping up their show of silence as they were left to drown in the tension, left with no one left to keep them company but each other.It was awful. After a certain point, it was beginning to feel like pure torture. Neither of them could stand it.Blaze, least of all. Liviana couldn't have been gone for more than five minutes before he quickly snapped under the pressure, spitting out the first question that came to his mind."What are you doing here, Amara?"Of course, her face immediately resorts to a frown, her signature pout twisting on her painted lips as she asks, "what do you mean?"Blaze only huffs. "You heard me, Amara." His voice was sharp, impatient. He had no time for her games. No room for error today. "What the hell are you doing here?"Amara laugh almost nervously, eyes darting from his face to his desk and back again, finding it hard to keep looking into those piercing eyes. "I... I thought we've

  • Re-Arranged   Chapter One Hundred and Twenty Five

    Alonzo and Luka are promptly dismissed and the remaining three settle into the office, settling into the ocean's worth of tension. For so long - too long - they sat in silence, quiet eyes darting around, looking everywhere but at one another as they avoided the elephant in the room. They all had so much to say, but no clue how to say it, not even knowing where to start. In all honesty, neither of the three were sure they even wanted to.Instead, they sit in the silence, trying not to choke on the tension that rolls through the room like thick clouds of smoke. It made it hard to speak, hard to see things clearly again. And right now, it was making their lives that much harder. Someone needed to speak. Someone needed to take care of this - take that first step to fix this once and for all. It was the only way to do so. And so, someone needed to do it.And of course, that someone just had to be Liviana.The raven looks around, eyes darting between the pair of siblings who couldn't even
