We had just finished up filming for the day and it was pretty fun. Tomorrow me and Tom would do a fight scene. We had gotten back got the apartment and I got changed into a pair of sweatpants and a t-shirt. Tom had a few things set out on the kitchen table. I raised my eyebrow at my adoptive father. They were ingredients to making a cake.
"I thought we could do something fun together" He said as I walked over and looked at the different ingredients. I hummed in response before looking at the recipe. Chocolate cake. My favorite!
So while making the cake I decided to do something that may have seemed dangerous. My hands were covered in flour so I rubbed it onto Tom's t-shirt. He looked at me like he was about to kill me. I smiled innocently at him before rubbing my hands together getting most of the flour off before taking off running in the other direction. We ran around the counter for a little bit since he had a egg in his hand.
After cleaning up and frosting the cake it was finished. We gave each other a high five because of our accomplishment. After getting washed up I decided to lay in my bedroom. It wasn't as nice as the one back in England. I decided to play on my phone for a little bit and I saw that I had a private message on Instagram. I raised my eyebrow before opening the message.

I don't think you'll see this but I just wanted to warn you ahead of time. Tom is using you for more fame and attention. He's been getting a lot of attention lately due to his new daughter. Ellie, I'm only trying to protect my best friend/sister.

Love,

I sat there reading the little message over and over again. It did actually make sense. I sat there wondering if it was true. I stood up and opened my bedroom door to hear Tom talking on the phone. Who was he talking to?
"Hello Mrs Georgia" Tom said his voice repeating itself in my mind over and over again. He was talking to Mrs Georgia. I shut my door slowly quickly grabbed a bag and filled it with a few things. I changed into a different pair of clothes. A black sweater with burgundy tights. I put on a pair of black converse sneakers and slung my bag over my shoulder. I didn't need to know what he was talking to her about. I knew exactly what it was.
Not too long ago I saw something on Tom's computer about me and the orphanage I went to. I think he's sending me back. I opened the window and looked down. Not that far of a drop. I swung my leg of the side and then my other leg before jumping and landing in a bush. I pulled leaves out of my short blonde hair before speed walking away from the building. I was headed towards Chris's house. Maybe even Scarlett's if a Chris wasn't home. If Scarlett wasn't home I would head to Jeremy's house. I arrived at Chris's house and I walked up the side walk to the front door before knocking gently. I hugged my body trying to stay warm. The door opened and I heard East barking. Chris took one look at me before pulling me inside the house. 
"Where were you?! Tom has been looking everywhere. He just called me a few minutes ago saying that he went to go check on you but he found that you were gone" Chris said.
"He's sending me back" I mumbled.
"What?" Chris asked.
"I know he's sending me back. I know he is. I saw it on his computer. He was also talking to Mrs Georgia on the phone" I said.
"I need to call Tom" Chris said but I pulled on his arm.
"Please. I don't want to go back" I said.
"He's not gonna send you back, Ellie. I promise" Chris said trying to reach for the phone.
"He's using me for attention" I said.
"No he's not. Why are you acting like this all of a sudden?" He asked. I pulled out my phone and showed him the message I had gotten from Lucy telling me about how Tom is using me for attention.
"Ellie... Tom is a nice guy. He would never do that to you" he said.
"Then you can call him. See if it's true" I said letting go of his arm. He nodded before picking up the phone. He pointed to the couch telling me to sit down. I rolled my eyes and walked over sitting down. East ran over and jumped up.
"Hey Tom... Yeah Ellie is here.... You want to talk to her?" Chris said in the other room. There was a pause before Chris came back and gave me the phone.
"Hello?" I asked not wanting to hear Tom's voice.
"Ellie! You scared the heck out of me! Where did you go?! I went to check on you but you were gone" Tom said.
"Are you using me to get attention?" I asked.
"Ellie" he started.
"Answer the question" I said.
"I'm not using you for attention. I would never do that, Ellie" he said.
"Then why are you sending me back?" I asked.
"I wouldn't do that either. Ellie, you're the best daughter a guy could ask for. I would never want to get rid of you."
"I'm feel like a brat."
"Well it was really bratty for you to think that. Ellie, you make me smile all the time when you laugh... Stay at Chris's I'm coming to pick you up. We'll talk about this in the morning... Understood?"
"Understood."
