It's all downhill from here!

Kidding, but, I apologize in advance for this chapter!

Sophie found herself on Elliot's front steps.

She almost went to Fezco's. Almost.

Then she realized he knew nothing of the whole Cassie situation, and she kind of needed someone who did.

"Are you good?" He asked when he opened the door, "I noticed you standing out here and you didn't knock or anything, wait, are you crying? Jesus, fuck, what did Nate do-"

"Nate didn't do anything. Well, I mean, he did, but that's not the fucking problem right now."

Elliot nodded, "Okay, do you want to come in or?"

"I would say yes, but your house reeks of weed and it's making me nauseous."

"You're a pain in the ass." Elliot said, rolling his eyes playfully, "We'll go sit on the couches in the yard then."

Sophie gave him a look before nodding and following him through the house to the backyard, immediately falling onto one of the couches, Elliot sitting beside her.

"What's wrong?" Elliot said as he got a joint out, Sophie playfully hitting him in the arm.

"No, put that away."

"Listen, you're not the only one with problems. This is how I deal with mine, and whatever you're doing right now, that's how you deal with yours."

"Fine, but blow your smoke the other way."

"Obviously." Elliot said, lighting it, "Are you going to tell me what's up or not?"

Sophie groaned, "Cassie is crazy."

"Yeah?"

"She's trying to blackmail me into not being with Nate, and she's probably gonna try to blackmail Nate into not being with me."

"What's she got over you two?"

Sophie gave him a guilty look, "One thing, but there's no-"

"Evidence? Jesus, Sophie, the fuck did you two do?"

Flashbacks of Tyler were evident in her mind and she pushed them away.

"At the time, it seemed right, but when I look back, it was such a bad fucking idea."

"What was it?"

"I can't tell you that."

"Okay, fine. Was there anything else?"

"She was claiming she never slept with Nate, which we know, is a lie. Um, oh, oh fuck, this one, she was trying to state that the baby was Fezco's and not Nate's because the timelines didn't add up for when she was conceived."

Elliot's eyes widened, "Hold on. Why would she think it was Fezco's?"

"Because I hooked up with him a few times last summer?"

Right. He didn't know.

"You hooked up with Fezco?" Elliot smiled slightly, "No fucking way."

"What?"

"It's just not what I expected from you, that's all." Elliot chewed on his lip, "Does this mean I might have a fair chance after all?"
