Trust. {A Joe Sugg Fanfiction}

Chapter 1 - Ellie Elizabeth.

(Ellie's POV)
"Eleanor!! Come here right now!"
I sighed. Dad calling me Eleanor meant he meant business. Great. Just what I need right now.
"What do you want?"
"Stop that cheekiness you little devil. I told you to come here!" He answered. You could hear the anger in his voice from inside my bedroom.
I picked up my phone from the bedside table and stepped into the living room with my fingers crossed. I hope he wasn't too mad.
I underestimated how angry he was.
"You need to come and sit down here young lady and tell me what this is all about." He banged his fist on the sofa and I gingerly sat.
"What's this?"
I gasped.
"That's my letter! Get off my stuff!"
"I'm not giving it back to you until you tell me what this says." he stabbed his finger at the address and name at the top, in my neat handwriting.
"It's Alfie."
"Didn't I tell you not to ever speak to your cousin ever again!!"
I shrugged.
He picked up the letter, ripping it into shreds. I know, it was only a letter but a tear ran down my cheek.
I bent my head.
"Oh so now you think being soft and crying will make things better???" He spat in my face, standing up.
"I'm sorry, Dad."
"Sorry will never be enough. Now get out."
"Out?"
"Out of the fricking door."
"But this is where I live!"
"Go. Now! And never come back. Go and spend time with your beloved cousin who's parents brought shame on this family."
What family? Ever since Mum died we've been at each other's throats every day! I'm sick of it! Why CAN'T we just be a normal family. A NORMAL FAMILY!" I yelled.
He just sat there, stunned, he didn't know what to say. He stood still, shaking his head, as if he couldn't quite work it out. I think that's why he hit me. He didn't know what else to do. It was a slap across my cheek what sent me back against the wall.
"Now. Get. Out. Now!"
I scrambled upstairs as quickly as I could, collecting my few possessions, plus my purse, and my credit cards. I couldn't bear the go back downstairs, so i ended up climbing through the window to get to where I felt safe. Anywhere but home.
