Elana P.O.V

I lay still on the bed as mom got off the phone. She gave me an upset look and sent me to her vanity. She cleaned me up and gave some of the pajamas I wore but left in her room. When we finished, I lay back in the bed and she sat on the edge of the California king bed to discuss what happened.

Justine: So what happened?

Elana: Things got out of hand…

Justine: Explain

Elana: Well I was going to see my old bedroom and Iris was coming out her room. So as I walked past her she slapped me and I fell on the ground. That’s when our fight started it ended with me cutting her with a pair of scissors and yelling at her basically

Justine: *eyes get wide* you cut her with scissors?

Elana: It wasn’t deep. It looks like a 3 inch paper cut. I’m going to be honest when I did it I wasn’t thinking. I just did it. I knew she was going to keep fighting and they were right there in front of my eyes. I am going to apologize but not now.

Justine: Where was Diggy?

Elana: He was taking a shower. I’m not sure what all he saw but I know for sure he saw the ending with the scissors and everything. *sighs* I’m always the bad guy when it comes to him it seems or the one being so hard on Iris or something. It’s always a problem with us.

Justine: I’ve noticed that you change a little bit. You change yourself internally because you don’t want to be hurt. I can tell you put up a wall towards Diggy and Iris. Is it because you feel their going to do something behind your back?

Elana: *starts to cry* yes

Justine: Is that part of the reason you did that to Iris?

Elana: *nods*

Justine: Well you might have to dig down deep inside yourself and explain some things to Diggy. In the end Diggy is only going to choose one girl if he has too and there is no guarantee that it will be you.

Diggy P.O.V

Iris got bandage up and she sat on my bed. I buried my head in my hands. What the heck happened? Iris stopped crying before she finally spoke.

Iris: I’m sorry

Diggy: No I’m sorry. She shouldn’t have done that.

Iris: Done what?

Diggy: Cut you

Iris: Diggy we were fighting. The cut isn’t even that bad.

Diggy: *lays back on bed* I’m thinking about breaking up with her.

Iris: Are you serious?

Diggy: Dead serious *raises eyebrows*

Iris: Why would you do that?

Diggy: I don’t know what to do with her anymore.  She doesn’t trust me or don’t believe I love her. Plus this just happened. She’s like a little girl in ways. I’m going to just let her go.  

Iris: Why you taking everything out on her like its every single thing that happened is her fault?  *gets upset*

Diggy: Why you care so much? *little mad himself*

Iris: Because that’s messed up!

Elana came in right as we were about to argue. It got quiet and she looked directly at Iris.

Elana: I’m sorry Iris. I shouldn’t have cut you. I was just upset and overwhelmed.

Iris: It’s alright as long as you can really forgive me.

Elana: worth a shot. *hugs Iris*

Iris: I have to tell you something *whispers in ear*

Elana: *looks at Diggy then sighs* I don’t even feel like dealing with you right now. If that was the case then we could have dumped each other a while ago. But we both know that no matter how many times we break up we always going to like/love each other. Come on Iris. *Iris gets up from bed*

Elana P.O.V

We went to Iris’s guest room and sat on the bed.

Elana: So when was the last time you talked to Khalil?

Iris: about 3 days ago. He and I haven’t been talking lately because I been feeling down about my mom.

Elana: Your mom is fine though. It hasn’t been too long and as far as I know she could be coming home anytime now.

Iris: I just miss her. I called her cell phone and everything but she don’t answer.

Elana: Oh you have to call the rehab center. I’ll give you the number later.

Iris: Thanks….you and Daniel?

Elana: We’re a mess like usual.

Iris: I think you guys should just spend a together doing something. Not like being in the house kind of stuff. Ya’ll do that all that time.

Elana: That’s true. We should. *gets on bed and starts jumping*

Iris got on the bed too and we both were hopping around like bunnies. That was until I slipped and fell backwards off the bed.

Elana: *laughing*

Iris: *hops off* that was an epic fail right there *dying of laughter*

Elana: Speaking of falling, have you talked to Tristen?

Iris: Last time I talked to her she was stirring up some drama between me and her about the whole diggy stuff. After that I didn’t even bother to see how she was doing now.

Elana: You know where she at?

Iris: She’s in North Carolina.

Elana: She ran off to NC after pushing me down the stairs?

Iris: Yeah I guess but she felt horrible Elana don’t kill her.

Elana: I’m not. I do want to teach her a lesson though. I know EXACTLY how to get her back out here and who will actually do the favor.

Iris: Who?

Elana: Twist.
