I apologise to the realllllly late update but I've had a rough few weeks. Yes, it is sadly the very last chapter of Hell Above, I am focusing it four years since Zoe died, there's a little note at the end of this chapter <3 There's quite a lot of talking in here aha, um, it is unedited so if there's any mistakes, let me know and I'll fix asap.

"Adam! Where do you want these balloons?" Hayley asks as Adam struts down the stairs with some presents Tommy and himself wrapped stealthy without Mitchel finding them.

"Lounge room" Adam smiled.

Everyone was getting the house ready to celebrate Mitchel's fourth birthday, Tommy has taken Mitchel out with Monte and Ashley, so when they get back, it'll all be set up. As Adam placed the presents on the counter, Eber and Neil walked in, smiling with a few presents in their arms.

"Hey Adam, we brought some more presents" Neil smiles.

"Please tell me it isn't lego" Adam groans.

"Uh, no, why the such hatred for lego?"

"Mitchel leaves them everywhere, knowing I am going to step on them when I wake up." Adam laughs, putting some presents behind the kitchen counter.

"You kids used to do that to your mother with rocks." Eber chuckled.

"Mainly Neil did though, I just gave him the rocks and told him where to place them." Adam laughed, handing Eber, Neil and Hayley a beer.

"Well we're done, some more guests should be here soon, but it's only a small thing, don't want to overwhelm the poor child" Hayley laughed. "Ashley's party was only like 20 people with 10 kids."

"There's only 12 kids or something, not including Ash and Mitch" Adam spoke taking a drink.

"Still has more friends than me." Neil laughed.

"And more girls, too, the girls at school love Mitch because of his red hair." Eber laughs.

"It's not that I can't get girls, I don't want girls to come near me." Neil spoke quietly. Adam took a sharp breath in.

"Why can't you just move on? It's been four years, Neil, what are you waiting for her to suddenly rise from the fucking dead?" Adam yelled. Whenever the subject of Zoe gets brought up, Adam goes funny, gets angry.

"Oh yeah because you've moved on just great! You are so touchy about the subject and yet you're telling me to move on?" Neil scoffed, shooting daggers at Adam. Adam grabbed Neil by the collar, slamming him into the wall.

"We have been over this, NEVER mention her fucking name or even the subject on it!" As Adam's grip tightened on Neil's shirt, Neil flared up in anger.

"Don't tell me you have moved on, Adam, don't tell me you still don't fucking cry over her, don't tell me that you never go to her grave during the night when no one is awake so you can tell her how everything is, don't tell me you don't wish it was you instead of her, and do not fucking tell me you think you're to blame because you don't think you were there for her enough!" Neil yelled. Hayley and Eber hanged in the back, knowing not to get involved...

"If you didn't bring Grace, none of this would of fucking happened! Four years I have tried to fucking forget and forgive." Adam shouts.

"Oh so I'm to blame?" Neil scoffs, sarcastically laughing.  Neil pushes Adam away suddenly, causing Adam's grip on his shirt to loosen.  "If I remember correctly, you're the one who pulled the plug, not me, so I think this says a lot more about you than me, Adam"

"It was for her." Adam says softly, his voice breaking.

"Or was it for you, so you didn't have to deal with her shit anymore?" Neil questioned. The anger in Adam came in a big wave once Neil spoke those words.
As Adam went to grab Neil again, he heard the front door open and close.
