*recap*

"So with that being said, no more running and no more hiding, if they wanna fight one of us then their gonna have to fight all of us because we're a family and we don't give up or leave each other's side"

*end of recap*

The next couple of days, Annie was scared but didn't want to admit it,

She didn't want to see her parents, she knew what would happen and she knew what they would say

They walked in the betting shop, only to see the Shelby brothers sitting there,

They turn around about to walk out the door when Polly appears in front of them, pushing them back into the room

"I know I'm late but who cares" Polly takes a sit next to Finn "what do you want Tom?"

"Well I hate to bring bad news to the family but this morning Charlie and curly found Cynthia dead on the docks" Thomas spoke slowly

"What?" Finn tried to stop the tears

He didn't know why he was crying, he didn't love her, he didn't even care for her not even once, but Eleanor didn't know that and by what she heard she thinks he was in love with someone that isn't even her and it broke her heart but she didn't show it

She just stood there with her head high not looking at Finn once,

Alex and everyone else besides Flor and Ann was shocked but also relieved, shocked because Finn was really crying over a rebound and relieved because someone finally did them a favor

Florence was standing there trying her hardest not to laugh, she wanted to laugh so hard because Maya and Esme was crying and because the bitch finally got what she deserved, she basically asked for it when her and her little whores came up to them and she wouldn't be surprised if Maya or Esme were next

Annie wasn't shocked, she wasn't phased at all, if you looked close enough you could even see a little smirk on her face

"You did this! You fucking killed her you whore!" Maya charged at Eleanor

Maya got on top of El but that didn't last long as Eleanor turned them around and hit her over and over again until Finn pulled her off but this time Alex or nick didn't stop him mainly because Silas didn't let them

Eleanor wasn't gonna lie, Maya got a couple of good hits in but El didn't look as bad as she did

Eleanor finally got out of Finn's hold, and she walked out not caring if the house was far from here, she was gonna walk home even if she had a cut on her lip until Annie pulled up next to her

"Get in the car El!" Annie saw she was gonna say something back but didn't let her

"I don't care if you have a point to prove. get. In. The. Car."

Eleanor got in the car and Annie drove off, they got home and cece took her inside and cleaned her up.

The next day, Annie and the two girls were meeting Polly to talk about what happened

They got there expecting Polly to be there by herself but they also see the four Shelby brothers standing next to her

Arthur was the only one who went up to them to say hello and gave them a hug

"Polly, what are we doing here?" Annie grabbed herself a cigarette lighting it as well

"I knew you wouldn't have came if I told you guys they would be here so I had to come up with something" Polly responded

The girls weren't mad at Polly, they were just upset because they had no reason to be there and they clearly weren't part of the family

Annie and Florence sat down but Eleanor stayed right where she was, she didn't want to be by Finn or Thomas

"We're not gonna put our main focus on Cynthia, right now we have to focus on getting this business done, so with that being said I want you guys to meet Aberama gold" Thomas turned around

Everyone turned there heads as they saw a man walking towards them

Eleanor recognized him, but couldn't quite figure out how or where she Recognized him from, she looked at Annie and saw she had no reaction like Flor or herself did

She had a look of confusion on her face as she looked at Annie then she turned her face towards the man and saw he had a smirk but not towards Thomas or Annie, it was towards Finn and that's when it clicked

Eleanor looked at Annie as Annie made eye contact with her, El seen Ann's face go down as she seen her reaction

Eleanor turned her head towards mr. Gold then turned towards Finn as she had a good feeling something bad was about to happen
