"What do you want Tom?" I ask him annoyance laced in my tone , he walks closer sitting next to me " I just want to talk babe" my head whips round " don't call me that , we aren't together" I say sternly, he almost flinches at my sharpness. He hold his hands up in surrender " Sorry Elodie , just a habit is all" . I hear the distant voices of the Greene siblings before turning back to Tom , " let's do this outside" he nods getting up.

He holds out his arm gesturing to me " After you" I let out a scoff walking past him making sure to bump his shoulder , the audacity of him to act like a gentleman when he is anything but. Once we reach out off the house I stop , and look back at him waiting for the bullshit to start.

" I want to apologise, for everything I know I haven't been a good boyfriend to you or even a friend, you deserved so much better and I didn't deserve you but that has changed me and I am trying to be a better person so I just wanted you to know that" he says confidently waiting for my response, I almost laugh in disbelief. " okay" I bluntly respond and his cocky expression falters " okay? Is that all your going to say"

" I don't know what you expected, for me to fall for you again because you are trying to change ? " I let out a laugh before continuing , my temper getting the best of me " no matter what feelings I have left for you I will never lower my standards again to put up with such an ignorant , selfish man child." I finish staring at him as I watch his face redden with embarrassment and his anger boil. I involuntarily step back and he steps closer his fist twitching.

I feel my heart jump out of chest before I realise he can not hurt me anymore , he knows what will happen if he does my father will kill him and even he knows he does not stand a chance against that. I tilt my head as I stare at him my eyes filled with nothing but disgust " What , you gonna hit me ?" I say with venom as I look him up and down.

I enjoy the view of his jaw clenching and his face now the shade of a tomato as he goes to step forward again before the presence of my brother intercepts him. " Funny your talking to my sister the minute my dad isn't here , seems cowardly. Don't you think Elodie ?" He says looking at me as his little body is standing protectively in front of my much taller one . I smile down at him " I agree Carl , very cowardly".

Tom scoffs " You never liked me ,I could see that your just a little brat" he says leaning his head to try intimidate my brother. " Don't you dare speak to him like that!" I raise my voice fiercely I will not allow him to insult Carl " At least his judge of character is greater than mine" I state " come on Carl let's go" I say grabbing my brothers hand as we walk away giggling , leaving a very angered Tommy.

After me and Carl spent some time together I decide to go check on Beth hoping that the siblings were no longer arguing. As I open the bedroom door I see an empty bed and the bathroom door closed, then I hear glass breaking and I panic . I try open the door but it is locked " Beth! Beth! Open the door ! Please! My shouts draw the attention of Maggie , Greene and my mom they all rush into the room.
