Romeo and Romeo?

The Upside of Drinking.

Teresa sat on her bed smiling. She was angry at Newt for the coffee incident, but she was more than thrilled that she caused this huge fight between Thomas and Newt. She was a whole step closer to Thomas being hers forever. 

Teresa was a step closer to Thomas and her being together in the end, in the end Thomas would marry Teresa, they would have small children together and have a perfect family, Teresa would finally have the perfect life. The life she always wanted. 

Even if Thomas and Newt made up, Teresa didn't think they would, but if they did make up, Teresa would continue to black mail and work her way to Thomas. She would have Thomas. No matter what. 

Teresa walked down stairs, her parents were in the kitchen making lunch. Her father baking chicken and her mother making the salad. 

Mrs. Anges looked at her daughter, "Hungry I hope."

Teresa smiled, "Yeah."

Mrs. Anges and her daughter had a similar look in their faces and matching hair. However, Teresa had her father's eyes. The Anges family sat down to lunch, nibbling on chicken and munching on salad. 

Mr. Anges looked at Teresa, "How is school going dear?"

Teresa looked at her parents, "Good, I'm acing all my classes."

Mrs. Anges smiled, "With help from whom?"

Teresa chuckled, "Thomas."

Mrs. Anges sat up straight in her chair and pushed her hair back, "Is he still with that...dare I say it. Fag?"

Teresa's smile grew even wider, "Not for much longer."

Mrs. Anges laughed lightly, "Did you do as we discussed?"

Teresa smiled, "Yes, mother. I got wasted enough that Thomas would put me to sleep in his bed. Then he got drunk enough to forget I was there. The fag found us in the morning. Dumped coffee on me, but I'm stealing his man."

Mr. Anges smiled at his wife and daughter, he was proud of their cunning minds, "See darling, there are up sides to drinking. Sometimes, you get what you want."

Teresa just smiled and shrugged slightly. 

Mrs. Anges cleared everyone's plates and placed them in the dishwasher. She pressed the start button then turned to her family. "Perhaps we should go shopping today huh, Teresa? New clothes, new look, for a new man?" 

Teresa nodded then ran up stairs to grab her purse, then met her mother at the front door. Teresa slipped on her pastel pink flat that matched her dress, then walked out the door with her mother. 

Lizzy was sitting in the kitchen after lunch. She patted her puppy on it's head. She never got rid of it like Newt had told her to, she couldn't just throw it back into the streets. She kept her and named the sweet little puppy Ella. 

Looking at the puppy reminded Lizzy of her brother, and how she missed him dearly. She was upset that Newt didn't want to come home after his suicide attempt, but he really did seem happy with Thomas and she regret ever telling Thomas to leave Newt alone. That's what really made Newt decide to leave his family and stay with Thomas. Lizzy and their mother had betrayed Newt and tried to take the man he loved away from him. Lizzy just wanted her brother back before he graduated this year.
