Tristans pov

I was beginning to feel awkward in the room with Elle and Brad as they were arguing, hoping it would just be forgotten about, I left the room. I made my way to Connor and James' room and let myself in knowing they wouldn't mind.

"Hey guys" I called as I opened the door.

"Hey, what's up?" Con asked looking as though he was about to fall asleep.

"Brad and Elle are having an argument, something about him being jealous of Elyar" I told him, his features immediately darkened and a look of anger fell upon his face.

"He promised me he would never hurt her" he growled, his anger peaking. One thing about Connor was that he was seriously over protective. Anyone or anything that he felt strongly towards was immediately worth more than his own life. Seeing him react this way just showed me how much his sister meant to him, even if they'd only known each other for a couple of months.

"I knew we shouldn't have trusted him, not after last time" James piped up, looking concerned.

"Guys we don't even know what's really happening yet, all I heard was Brad saying he was jealous and then I left, we don't know if they've even had an argument" I told them, I knew what Brad did last time was wrong, I mean he hurt multiple people on one single action but I honestly believed he wouldn't do that to Elle.

"How are you defending him after last time Tristan?" Connor asked.

"I've forgiven him for that, I know Brad can be a complete dick but a seriously doubt he'd ever intentionally hurt Elle" I hoped I was right, Elle meant more to me than anyone, even Megan. Don't get me wrong, I love Megan from the bottom of my heart but there's something about Elle.

"If she seems okay tomorrow morning then Brad won't be getting a punch in the face but if he's hurt her then that's a whole other story" Connor sneered, I bit my lip, I was feeling nervous for Brad, I'd never seen Connor this angry before and quite frankly it was starting to scare me.

"I'm going to see if everything's okay, I might be back, I might not" I said grabbing the door handle and pulling it open. As I left the room, I heard another door slam further down the corridor. I ran back to my hotel room just in time to see Elle running out with tears dripping down her face.

"Elle" I called after her but she didn't reply, my heart broke seeing her in such a devastating way. Suddenly anger ran through my blood and I was immediately pissed off with Brad. I felt my legs carry me into the hotel room and the first thing I saw was Brad with his head in his hands and tears falling down his cheeks.

"What the fuck did you do?" I shouted at him, he looked up at me with a slightly scared expression.

"I really fucked up Tris, I told her I didn't trust her" he cried, begging for sympathy.

"Are shitting me right now? She's the one that shouldn't trust you," I raged at him wanting to punch his sorry little face.

"I know and I'm sorry, I was just jealous and I lost it and now she hates me" he mumbled. I could actually hear how much he meant it in his voice, he didn't want to upset her he just did.

"Look Brad, you need to trust her, a relationship is nothing without trust and you know she's had enough experiences with people breaking her heart to know not to break yours. Right now, you only feel heartbroken because you ruined it and made it happen, none of it was her fault. So I suggest you apologise to her first thing in the morning." I wasn't quite sure why I'd had such a change of heart but I wanted what was best for Elle, I wanted to make her happy.

"You're right, I'll talk to her tomorrow but I need some sleep first" he wiped the tears off his face and smiled sadly at me.

"I'm just going to check on Elle, I'll be back later" I mumbled leaving the room again and heading towards Elles door. I could hear her muffled sobs through the door, I turned the handle to see that it was locked. I knocked on the door loudly and heard her shuffling around inside the room.

"I don't want to talk to anyone, go away" she said with a shaky voice. The pain in her voice was killing me, I hated the fact that she was so upset.

"Elle, come on, it's Tristan, I need to talk to you" I called through the door, hoping she would open it. As soon as the words were out of my mouth the door swung open, she was stood before me with puffy red eyes and tear stained cheeks. Before I knew what was happening, her arms were round my neck and she was crying into my chest. I wrapped my arms around her and stroked her hair until she stopped crying, we hadn't moved from the doorway but there was no need to. After about 10 minutes of silence except from Elles sobs she pulled away.

"Thank you Tristan" she mumbled, pulling me into her room and closing the door.

"I just needed to make sure my best friend was alright" I whispered, calling her my best friend felt wrong and I had no idea why.

"Well, I guess Connor was right when he said Brad was going to hurt me," she cried sitting on her bed.

"What happened with you two?"

"He told me he didn't trust me when it came to hanging around with Elyar, then he said that I had to choose between him and you and I couldn't do it Tris" she told me. Anger was bubbling up inside of me again, he had no right to make her do that. "And then he said Tyler had a reason to do what he did." That was it, he'd gone too far. It was one thing to make her choose between me and him but to make excuses for Tyler was just wrong.

"He did what?" I could hear my voice getting louder but I was trying to control my temper.

"Tristan, don't do anything, he didn't know what he was saying, he was angry" Elle pleaded with me tugging my arm so I sat down on the bed.

"He can't just go around saying things like that to you Elle" I argued.

"Yes but Megan can't just go around cheating on you yet she still does and you forgive her" she argued back, I knew she was right but I hated to admit it. "And the reason you forgive her is because you love her just like I love Brad"

"Elle, there's something you should know" I started, I could feel the look of guilt spread across my face. She gestured for me to carry on, I noticed she already looked nervous. "A few months ago, before any of us knew about you, Megan slept with someone else... She er, she slept with Brad" I let out uneasily. I watched her face flash with hundreds of different emotions, trying to best show how she was feeling.

"Why?" Was all she said.

"I don't know, I caught them at a party we were all at but I suppose I forgave it because they were both drunk. I didn't know what to do Elle, it was so messed up, my best friend and my girlfriend" I whispered I placed my head in my hands remembering the horrible memories which suddenly came flooding back.

"I really never expected that, I've only known him for a few months but I didn't think he'd be this much of a dick" she was now pacing up and down her hotel room and you could tell she was stressed out. Finally she sat down on the bed and I placed my arm around her. My heart started beating faster as I touched her and I could feel my cheeks heating up a little, what was happening to me?

"Do you mind if I stay here tonight? I don't think I can face Brad after everything that's happened tonight" I asked when she rested her head on my shoulder.

"I was going to ask if you could stay anyway, I need a friend right now." I mumbled, I could hear the strain in her voice as she tried to keep it from cracking.

"Anything for you Elle" I smiled, pulling her closer to me.

"Anything for a friend" she smiled back. I remembered each and every time we had said those exact same words to each other and it just reminded me of how much she meant to me. We sat in silence, thinking about the events that had occurred that night when eventually we fell into a deep slumber.

A/N Hey beautiful people, so most of you said that you wanted Elle and Brad back together so I shall see what I can do!
