Sorry...

"Hey sweetie," Mom says. "Can you do me a favor and go tell Luke and Reese that dinner is done?"

"Sure." I shrug. I walk in the house, leaving the back door open.

I make a move to go into the kitchen, but I stop when I hear what Reese is saying.

"Look," he starts. "You won the fucking bet. You got her to go out with you. You didn't have to marry her and get her pregnant."

"Reese, I've told you a million times to fucking stop. I know I won the bet and got Alyssa to go out with me, but-"

I move into the doorway, tears streaming down my cheeks.

Luke's eyes widen and he starts to panic.

"You're welcome." Reese says. He walks past me.

"Bet?" I ask.
"Look," Luke starts.

"This was a bet?" I spat.

"No, I mean yes, but-"

"But what? This was your sadistic bet to get me to go out with you? What the hell is wrong with you? Are you fucking crazy? We have children together. When were you going to draw the line? Grandchildren? Great grandchildren? What the HELL is wrong with you?"

Everyone starts to come inside.

"Please let me explain." he says, reaching for me.

I put my hands up.

"Don't touch me." I hiss. "Don't look at me. Don't think about me. Fuck you. You're fucking..." I shake my head. "You're disgusting!"

Everyone is standing there, shocked.

I take the rings off and throw them at him, and then I grab the kids.
"Alyssa, wait!" Luke says.

"No!" I shout at him. The kids start crying. "I don't want to!"

Tears are rushing down my cheeks. I grab my purse.

"Alyssa." Luke whispers.
"You're pathetic." I shake my head.

He blocks the door.

"I'm not going to let you leave again."

I yank my tazer out of the first drawer.

"Move."

"You won't do it."

"You wanna fucking bet? Oh wait, I bet you do."

I shove him, hard, and walk out the door.

He follows me as I go to the car and put the twins in.

"Please." he begs. "Just listen."

"No!" I yell at him. "Leave me alone!"

Kendall stuck Armstrong on me and made the FBI find me. She picked the locked to my hotel room.

"Just go." I say, changing Conner's diaper.

"No. Luke got arrested. He put Reese into a coma."

"He's not who he says he is." I mutter. "You're surprised?"

Amelia walks in with Ethan.

I pinch the bridge of my nose.

"Guys, please."

"I grew up with Luke and I've never seen him cry as hard as he cried when you left." Amelia whispers.

"Guys, he was bet to be with me. He's just with me to win. He's a jackass."
"You know he fucking loves you." Kendall snaps.

I ignore her.

"Dustin bailed him out of jail. He downed a bottle of sleeping pills and he just got out of the hospital. You should go talk to him." Kendall continues.
"No. Leave. Please guys, just leave me alone."
