Elle managed to walk away from the two boys and into the assembly hall before either could catch up with her, hopefully giving the brothers a chance to try and talk things out. Realising the assembly was about to start, she grabbed a seat in between Jacob and Riz.
"Cheer up, Ells." Jacob playfully nudged the girl's shoulder, already reading her facial expression. "Come on, you two are right down in the dumps." He said, looking at Riz who also didn't look to pleased, although this could be for a number of reasons.
"It's not every day that you find out your boyfriends' a teen dad. It were like a scene of the Jeremy Kyle show down in the canteen." The blonde girl huffed, taking her brother by surprise and grabbing Riz's attention. "You heard me, Cory is Jamie's dad."
"Well, what does that mean for you two then?" Riz questioned, slightly perking up which got him a look to tone it down from Jacob. "I mean, I'm sorry but you don't sound best pleased about it all."
"I don't know how to feel, I was more scared of being a step teen mum." Elle light heartedly chuckled to herself. "I mean it's his kid and nowt to do with me at all but I guess it's just the surprise and I do feel for Jordan."
"I knew he couldn't keep it in his pants but I didn't see the teen dad card come out." Jacob screwed his face up in confusion. "But of course you're aloud to feel something, it's just a big a shock to anyone."
"Nine month ago that Cory was still on and off with me, I was obviously the rebound from Candice or vice versa." The girl sighed to herself. "I guess that's what kind of getting to me the most."
"You should just end it with him, he's caused you a lot of grief before and after." Riz chirped in, receiving another glare from Jacob. "I'm literally just warning you."
"Riz!"
"You three, sshh!" Miss Keane warned from behind, pointing at the stage as the open day assembly was now about to begin.
"And now for an insider's view of life here at Ackley Bridge College, I'd like to pass you onto our sponsor's daughter and sixth former here, Alya Nawaz." Mrs Carter proudly introduced the crowd, receiving a few eye rolls here and there from the mention of the girl's name.
"Look, he's acting like that again. It's only when I'm around." Elle whispered to her brother, noticing that Riz's facial expression had went back to the off and moody sort of thing that he had been giving it earlier in the week.
"It's not you, I promise." Jacob shook his head at her. "Well, not all you."
"What do you mean?" She furrowed her eyebrows in confusion, before she was cut off from the beginning of Alya Nawaz's speech.
